The Storm

It is a dark and stormy night, the power went out, and the two teen friends, Dante and Vergil, were all alone. They were in a new house.

Vergil: "Now what are we going to do?"

Dante: "Hey, did you hear that?"

Vergil: "What are you doing? I don't hear anything."

Dante: "Someone keeps whispering my name and giggling."

Giggling can be heard in one of the bedrooms.

Vergil: "Dante, that's not funny."

Dante: "I'm not doing it!"

Vergil: "Then go see what it is!"

Dante: "You do it, chicken!"

Vergil: "Let's both do it then."

Dante: "Fine you dork."

They both start to walk towards the bedrooms.

Vergil: "Who do you think it is?"

Dante: "Your cat."

Vergil: "I don't have a cat!"

Dante: "Exactly."

They walk into the room the noise is coming from. Dante pushes Vergil in and closes the door, holding it shut. Vergil screams like a girl.

Vergil: "Let me out!"

Dante: "Find out what it is first you dork."

Vergil: "Just let me out!"

Dante: "Crying isn't going to help. Just do it!"

Vergil: "Fine! But if I die, I blame you!"

Dante: "Sure. I'll just laugh."

Vergil: "W-why is there water on the floor?"

Dante: "The bedroom doesn't have any water in it!"

Vergil: "IT'S RED! DANTE! Let me out! PLEASE!"

Dante: "Find out what's in there first."

Vergil: "…"

Dante: "Vergil? Are you dead? Hey, can I have your bedroom?"

Vergil: "NO! STAY OUT OF IT!"

Dante: "Aww…"

Vergil: "Why is there pens and a demonic looking jester toy on the floor?"

Dante: "Jester? That wasn't there before!"

More giggling is heard under the bed.

Vergil: "LET ME OUT! LET ME OUT!"

Dante opens the door.

Dante: "You chicken."

He goes to look under the bed.

Dante: "Hey there's a kid under here."

Vergil: "What about the red stuff!"

Dante: "It's ink you dork."

The girl comes out from under the bed.

Vergil: "Who are you?

Girl: "Your new neighbor."

Dante leaves the room and Vergil goes to follow looking back once to see the toy gone and a real Jester where the girl was. He grins and waves before disappearing.

Vergil: "DANTE!"

Dante: "No Vergil."

Vergil: "But!"

Dante: "No Santa isn't real."

Vergil: "DANTE!"
