Escape the Night: Buried Alive

A/N: Hey, guys, I'm posting this today instead of tomorrow since I have work at the movie theater tomorrow. Anyhow, time for our heroes to locate the next artifact, but who will pay the price to find it?

Read, review, and enjoy!

Disclaimer: I don't own anything from Escape the Night. I just own any and all characters that I just happen create.


PROLOGUE: BEING BURIED…LITERALLY

In a hotel room, a man was having a serious make-out session with a beautiful blonde woman, and he had her pinned to the wall until he was done. The man took a step back, allowing the woman to catch her breath, but when she went to kiss him, he turned and walked toward a table with a leather box on it.

The woman, who was a hooker, went to sit on the bed, grabbing both a cigarette and a lighter, which she used to light the cigarette, and she began smoking.

The man picked up a packet of money and tossed it onto the bed next to the hooker. While she picked it up and was counting it, he removed a brown bottle from the box, poured some of the clear liquid on a white cloth, and put the bottle back into the box.

Hiding the cloth behind his back, he went to the hooker and she was a bit surprised when he took the cigarette from her and smoked it himself. He sat down next to her, scooted closer in a way that made her think that he wanted to make out with her again – and that was when he quickly covered her nose and mouth with the cloth.

The hooker struggled against him, trying not to breath in the chloroform, but eventually she ended up taking a breath, and she sank into darkness.


After dressing himself, the man carried the unconscious woman over one shoulder along a path until he reached an area where another man was busy digging a hole in the ground and there was a wooden coffin waiting nearby. In the distance was the house, and that meant that they were now somewhere on the estate.

The man put the woman on the ground, unaware that she'd regained consciousness a few minutes ago, and he went to check on the hole. "Hey, hurry up."

Seeing this as her chance, the woman quickly got up and ran away, screaming. Cursing, the man chased after the woman and he quickly caught her since she was still a bit woozy from the chloroform. The woman screamed and struggled as he dragged her back to the hole, and the second man helped by grabbing her legs.

"Please! No!" the woman screamed as they put her in the coffin, and she tried to keep them from putting the lid on, but they managed to shove it down.

The mysterious figure walked up as the two men finished chaining the coffin shut, muffling her screams. `"Is she inside?"` it asked.

The first man straightened up, but he didn't look at the figure that'd employed him, not wanting to reveal that he was scared of the figure. "Yeah."

`"Bury her,"` the mysterious figure ordered and as the two men placed the coffin in the hole to bury it, the figure went over to a black box. Kneeling down, the figure placed the artifact inside the box, closing it, and then the figure began pouring a circle of white sand around the box. Once the coffin was buried, the figure poured white sand on top of the box until it was swallowed up by the ground.

'Excellent,' the mysterious figure thought, paying the two men, who were quick to leave, and the figure headed back toward the house. 'Two down and two to go.' It knew that a heavy price would have to be paid in order to retrieve that particular artifact, and it didn't care since it meant that it was one step closer to what it wanted from the evil that lived inside the house.

The mysterious figure would make as many sacrifices as it needed in order to win the favor of the evil. Once it had done that, then it would do what was needed to control the evil itself, and take its' power as its' own.
