The marker moved from the middle of the board and landed on the word 'Yes'

"Soda, please tell me your doing that," Squeaked Johnny.

Soda shook his head, "Wasn't me"

Okay, that's pretty creepy. I mean, it isn't much like Soda to tell a lie. Or maybe he is just doing it… Two-bit jumped up from where he was sitting and looked at the marker.

"Soda, take your hand off it," He suggested. Soda removed his hand, it was time for Two-bit it start with his question. Oh brother. "Are you a guy or a girl?" He asked.

No one touched the marker, but it slowly slip from the 'yes' to the 'm' then 'a' then 'l' then 'e'. I couldn't believe what we just saw, it moved on its own! This is getting freaky…

"Oh, I want a turn! Steve yelled. He pushed Soda out of the way and sat right in front of the board. "What's your name?" He asked, in a rough voice.

We watched the marker move once again it an 'F' to an "I" to an "N" And finally to another "N". Finn? I guess his name must be Finn. Alright then.

For the next hour or so we tuck turns asking it stupid question about our future and whatever. Me and Johnny didn't really say much though. But then suddenly, the room felt odd. It had gotten colder like a winter wind was in the room, but it was summer and all the windows and doors where closed. The door to mine and Sodapop's room started to slam open and shut. And two of the candles and blown out. The marker started to go crazy spelling out words by the second; I couldn't believe what it said.

'One of you will come with us, become one of us. You will come down here with us and obey us. One of you is coming down to hell!'

We all started to shake; we didn't know who it wanted. It was very scary; it was the first time I had ever felt terror like that before. I could see it in everyone. Even in Dallas. It was quite for a moment and nothing seemed to be moving. The only sound you could here was the gang heavily breathing.

Suddenly, the bedroom door slammed open and closed again, and the marker started to move again.

'Which one of you should come with us? Lets see…'

One by one everyone started to jump, I was sure why though, until now. I felt a hot breath on my face and heard a low growl, and watched the marker move once more.

'Ponyboy'

That's what it spelled out, and nothing more. It spelled my name then all hell broke lose.

It started to count down, 9, 8, 7, 6… 5.. 4.. 3.. 2…. 1.

The last two candles blew out and I felt like someone has quickly stabbed me in the chest but the pain only lasted a few seconds. I calmed my breather and opened my eyes. Soda was fighting to turn on the light as fast as he could. The second he switched on the light, I had lost control of my body and got lifted up, floating in mid air.
