The Screams From Room 213

This story is a murder mystery. I won't tell you, and if you happen to figure it out, DON'T TELL ANYONE. Enjoy!

Chapter 1: The Screams

Ollie Owl, the night manager of the Walton City Inn, nestled down for the night shift. He knew it was an easy shift, because most of the patrons were asleep. All he had to do was sit there, watch the front desk, and check in on noise complaints. The latter, he wouldn't have to worry about tonight. The hotel only had 20 rooms filled, and he had made sure they had been spread throughout the whole hotel. So, no one was next to each other, which meant no noise complaints.

After he did his routine hallway walk-through, made sure the back doors were secure, he once again sat down at the front desk. And that's when he heard it. Screaming. Female screaming. He grabbed the master key and ran through the hallway from where the screams had came. The only room in this hallway that had a patron in it was two-thirteen.

The snow white owl pushed the master key into the slot. He burst into the room. He couldn't believe his eyes. There the patron lay naked, in the middle of the bed. Her throat was slit.

The police where on the scene immediately. They knew the victim had been raped, and of course, murdered. The police asked for the patron's information. Ollie looked up the information. She was a pink hedgehog, named Amy Rose, she was only 15.

20 Years Later...

Sonic was a cobalt blue hedgehog, aged 18, who was a bellboy at Walton Country Inn, during his orientation at the hotel, Sonic was told that the inn had changed its name about nineteen years ago because of something (no one would say what) that had happened to make people stop coming to the hotel. He had been in every room in this hotel except for room 213.

The rumor was that whatever happened all those years ago, was so bad that no one wanted to be associated with it.

Sonic was working the night shift, just in case someone wondered in late, plus, he needed the dough. He had to save up for college. But as he settled into the bellboy lounge, waiting to be called, he heard something.

Screaming, or maybe it was yelling. Sonic had seen some teenagers check-in. It was probably a couple.

Ollie would deal with the noise complaint. Usually, if there was a noise complaint, Ollie would call a bellboy to the front desk while he went and did whatever he had to do to make the patrons happy. Sonic was the only bellboy in that night. Still, no call from Ollie.

This didn't make since, Sonic was on the ground floor, and he could still hear the screams. He could hear the screams clearly. It was no yell. It was a scream. A pain and terror filled scream. How could no one else not hear it. To Sonic, it was loud and clear.

He grabbed his master key, and ran into the hallway. He followed the screaming to room 213.

Room 213? Sonic thought as he shammed the key into the automated lock. He had never been in this room. What could be behind this door?

The screaming stopped. The lock unlatched. He burst through the door. He flipped the light on. He walked through the room. It was empty.

Hope to update soon! Maybe sometime next week? Review! And don't give spoilers!
