Chapter 1: The Abandon Victorian Mansion
It was Mid Autumn and the leaves had yet to fall off the trees completely, many vibrant and vivid colors of orange, yellow, green and red. spread throughout the naked trees. Occasionally dropping and drifting down the the earths ground below. Three figures laughed and chuckled along with pushing one another as they walked down the path.
A sharply dressed boy with black hair and three white striped on the right side only shook his head. While the blue haired boy laughed it up with the silver haired boy right next to him. They held on to one another and continued to laugh as if they were holding on to each other for dear life. The silver headed boy then released the blue headed boy and opened his eyes with a satisfied smirk on his face, which was mean for the black headed boy with the three stripes.
"Would you look at that Soul! I think Kiddo Here is going to cry!" The blue headed boy chuckled. Soul looked at Kidd who only turned his head in the opposite direction of him and Blackstar. It seems that they had struck a nerve, Soul nudged Blackstar in the side and gave him a smirk. He then placed his hands in his pockets as they continued to walk down the quiet sidewalk.
It was very odd that their was no one out today considering it was sunny and nice out, not to mention it was Saturday afternoon and it would be the perfect time to take a walk, or ride a bike or something like that. Kidd, Blackstar and Soul had just finished watching a movie down at the theater downtown Death City, they were now heading to the court to shoot some hoops.
The three young men had been buddies for years now, Soul was known as the cool one so he may always say. He came from a very wealthy family, his ruby blooded eyes, shark like smile that would practically send a shiver up your spine and snowy white hair. Soul was very build, even though he looked as if he were small his muscles were a different story along with his perfect tanned skin.
"What shall we do after a round of basketball?" Kidd questioned, Soul looked at Kidd and Blackstars face peeked from the right side of Soul as they both stared at him with brows cocked. Honestly they had no idea what their plan was going to be after that. Kidd only let out a small sigh and shook his head lightly. He was known to be the most mature one in the group, he had manners and a sense of style in his opinion. Symettry meant EVERYTHING.
Soul only thought about the little things at the moment, the little things really wasn't anything importation he only wondered and thought about why he was thinking of such random things as he drowns out Kidd and Blackstar's nagging. Looking down at his feet he then began to pick his eyes up a bit not letting them focus right ahead, but as soon as he did that he ran right into Blackstar back.
"Blackstar man, watch your..."
He didn't finished what he said because he was to busy staring at the same thing Blackstar and Kidd were looking at, at the moment. It was that abandoned house that he had heard so much about. He often hears rumors about it on the school grounds about it being possessed as well as someone still living in it, not only that some say that a couple of high school students went in and never came back out.
If that was the case he wanted to avoid even getting next to the damn thing, it looked even more creepy looking in the bright daylight. Soul always wondered about that house he didn't understand why he couldn't shake the feeling that something was present inside there, just waiting for him to check it out.
"You know, as much as I hate looking at the damn thing. I always wondered if there's anything inside that place.." Blackstar said staring at the dilapidated old mansion. Kidd nodded his head in agreement, but Soul had nothing to say considering Blackstar practically said what he was thinking already, about seeing if there was actually anything inside the place."Your guess is just as good as mine, although I don't feel like inhaling a load of dust maybe some other time." Kidd said, swiping the imaginary dust from his shoulder.
"What do ya say Soul? Next time we check it out?" Blackstar said grinning at him, Soul took his attention away from the house and slowly nodded his head at Blackstar. Blackstar stared at his fazed friend a moment before smirking and continuing walking down the street. Soul and Kidd looked at one another before following him down the sidewalk, being curious once again Soul gazed at the house once more before shaking his head getting the image to removed itself from his mind.
Finally arriving at the usual place where they play basketball Soul began to take off his shirt. Blackstar watched and wolf whistle causing Soul's face to turn bright red. Once he could see Blackstar's smirking face he only rolled his eyes and flipped him the finger."Not cool man, that was just..I don't even fucking know what that was about." He huffed, tossing his shirt on the nearby bench. Kidd laughed before unbuttoning his shirt."It seems that Blackstar may be Gay for you Soul, what do you think?" He grinned at Soul who grinned at Blackstar.
"WHAT THE FUCK!"
Soul and Kidd laughed, grabbing the ball from the bench Soul dribbled it a couple of times before passing it too Kidd, who passed it directly to Blackstar who looked pissed."Aw come on man Kidd was just messing around don't take that shit serious." Soul snickered, catching the ball just as Blackstar pegged it at him. Kidd chuckled once more receiving the ball as he made a basket without a care int her world.
"You know fuck you guys, besides if I was gay which I'm clearly not. I wouldn't go for Soul's ugly ass!" He bellowed his mood changing from angry and pissed off to loud and obnoxious. Soul couldn't help to laugh at the comment but then rolled his eyes before making a free shot, the ball swishing into the hoop gaining himself a point that didn't count considering the haven't started actually playing yet."You don't have to worry about that, besides who ever said I was going to be gay?" Soul snickered.
"No-one."
"Exactly."
Blackstar was a bit confused but that wasn't anything new."Can we just get on with the game man, I wanna get home so I can sit my ass on my couch and play video games!" Blackstar shouted pumping his fist in the air. Kidd only nodded his head in agreement he thought that sounded like a good idea as well, but he had other things to do first."Alright, alright, them we will play no teams were all against each-other." Soul explained, Kidd and Blackstar nodded their head. Soul chucked the ball to blackstar before receiving it back, this was going to be one interesting game.
The water from the shower felt fucking fantastic, Soul groaned as the warm water hit his toned skin. He had to admit he didn't enjoy how he smelled after, it was a pretty intense game and his smell was also very intense. Spending twenty minutes in the shower Soul finally decided to get out and find something to else to do for the rest of the night.
Turning on the TV, he sat in silence as he watched his shows. Sometimes the thought of the Mansion crossed his mind although he never really understood why he was so worried about the abandoned place. He had to admit he was a bit excited about checking the place out tomorrow with Blackstar to see what's up. He pondered on it, shifting his position every few seconds as he thought hard. Jumping at the sound of his cell ringing Soul groaned at the caller ID, Blackstar.
"Hello?"
"Yo Soul what's up my loyal bitch?" He cackled over the phone. Soul sighs and lays back farther into the couch. He just saw this idiot not to long ago why the hell was he calling him right now at this moment?"Blackstar, what the hell do you want? This better be important." He said, he could hear Blackstar snickering on the other end with a faint laugh in the background. Soul cocked a brow before pressing the phone closer to his ear.
"Blackstar? Who else is with you right now?" In the background you could hear Blackstar hush someone. Soul knew something was up, hearing another giggle Soul knew it wasn't a damn guy and he wanted to know who SHE was."What the hell are you smoking, ain't nobody here with me Soul. So are you pumped for tomorrow or what!" He screamed changing the subject.
"Blackstar"
"OK, I give up...you wanna know who is here with me? Cindy." He whispered the last part. Soul only shook his head. He couldn't believe what he was hearing right now. Cindy was with him? What the hell were they doing?"Seriously man, Cindy? That bitch is going to drag you through hell man remember what happened last time?" Soul snapped.
"Yeah, yeah, I know but she's a changed woman man." He explained. Soul wasn't buying any of the shit Blackstar was telling him. Cindy Williams, Soul couldn't forget her at all. She used to be real close friends with Soul and Blackstar until she decided that she didn't just like Blackstar as a friend and it turned out that they were both in love. It didn't take long before she screwed Blackstar over with another guy, he never understood his taste in women at all and he really didn't get why he took her back.
"Whatever man, but when she screws you over don't bitch and moan to me about it." Soul scoffed and hung up the phone. Throwing it on the other couch he sighed and ran his hand through his locks, what the hell is going on and why did he feel so weird why couldn't he just get that damn house out of him mind. Just then his cell began to ring again, he growled under his breath thinking it was Blackstar, but it wasn't it was Kidd.
Picking up the phone he placed it up to his ear only to hear a scream in the background. He pressed the phone closer to his ear. "Kidd is everything alright? Who the hell is screaming?" Soul questioned into the phone, he had a pretty good idea on who it was but to be sure why not ask, he was also very positive that his right ear drum was messed up now.
"Sorry about that, Nina insisted on bringing me my tea and fell on the rug and spilled tea everywhere." Kidd sighed at his maids actions. Soul did remember Nina and how clumsy she could be so he knew where Kidd was coming from with this. He only wondered at the moment why he called him for in the first place?
"So why call?"
"Oh right, My apologies you must be in the middle of something, I'll make this fast." He said."I wanted to let you know when we parted ways earlier I found some information about the mansion you and Blackstar insist on investigating so badly." He told him, Soul's eyes widened and he was more intrigued in the conversation than he was earlier.
"What did you find out about it?" He questioned raising a brow. The mansion and the mysteries is holds has been weighting on him and if he finds out what he wants to know that would be very helpful.
"Well I found out a couple things." He started.
"Like?" Soul interrupted.
"Well its more about the background history about the place? Still interested?" Kidd asked making sure that he didn't loose Soul yet knowing that he couldn't be interested in a History lesson about the mansion from several years before their own time. Soul thought about it, it wouldn't hurt to see what Kidd came up with, who knows maybe it could be really useful.
The next day Soul waited by the Mansion for Kidd and Blackstar to get there to meet up with him. He looked at the run down place and only stared. Honestly the more he looked at the place the more curious he got, it really was creepy as fuck and in really bad shape so there was no way in hell someone would live in a place such as that, it wouldn't be right for living conditions.
"Yo Soul! I'm surprised you even showed up! I thought you would of chickened out or something." Blackstar smirked giving Soul a fist pump as he returned the smirk right back. Did he think that he would just back out of something like this? Besides, if Soul DID decide not to go inside he would never stop hearing Blackstars damn nagging about how much of a pussy Soul was to go inside.
"Hehe, you actually think Id miss this?" He said pointing to the Victorian Mansion behind him, before lowering his hands into his pocket. Blackstar nodded his head and laughed as they walked up to the fence of the dilapidated place.
"You two go on ahead, I shall stand out here and guard, technically were not suppose to be entering." Kidd said as he took a seat on the wall next to the gate looking at the two. Soul and Blackstar only shrugged their shoulders, as they walked towards the main entrance that was closed off by a huge gate with a big cursive N on it.
"What do you think the N stands for Soul?" Blackstar questioned eyeing the gate. Soul only shrugged his shoulders, he didn't even know what the N meant at all. Maybe a name of someone that use to live there?"How the hell am I suppose to know?" He asked, Blackstar shrugged as he pushed opened the gate causing lots of dust to fly up in the air making them cough.
"Would you warn me next time!" Soul snapped, he could feel the layers of dust gathering in his eye. Rubbing his eye a bit he thnn started to look around when his vision returned. He couldn't believe what he was seeing.
"Soul you gotta see this!" Blackstar shouted.
