The Deserted Mansion Ch.2
A/N: Ok, the first victim will die here, so if your poor stomach can't take the fact that one of the beloved Final Fantasy or Kingdom Hearts characters will die, please don't read. There will be some blood and violence, you all have been warned. In case you all are wondering where I got some of my influence from, it's from Trapt, a PS2 game. Please review xD
"Whoa, the mansion looks nice." Roxas looked at the beautiful mansion.
"I have a bad feeling about this, guys." Tifa felt paranoid, she was constantly looking around the house.
"This house gives me the creeps." Namine was shivering from the goose bumps that formed on her skin.
"Hello, is anyone there?" Sora shouted, his voice echoing off the walls.
"Maybe we should leave." Aerith motioned towards the door, but the door slammed itself shut, locking it in place. "Shit, it's locked." Aerith pulled on the handle.
"I don't like this." Goofy said scared. "I don't like this at all."
"Is anyone here?" Kairi called out.
No answer.
"Let's split up. Kairi, Namine, and Aerith in this area." Yuffie told the three girls. "Sora, Roxas and Donald, check the top floor. Leon, Cloud and Goofy, check the adjacent rooms. Tifa and Riku, come with me to the basement. If anyone's in trouble, scream ok."
"Roger that." Everyone said and went their separate ways.
Kairi, Namine, and Aerith
"This is a nice place, but it's creepy." Kairi felt adrenaline pumping throughout her body.
A scurrying noise was heard from the dark corridor in the middle.
"H-h-h-hello?" Namine stuttered.
"AAAAAH!" Aerith screamed.
"What is it?" Kairi's and Namine's eyes widened.
"Kill that big rat!" Aerith screamed jumping into Kairi's arms.
"And we thought it was something scary." Namine pouted.
Sora, Roxas and Donald
Each creak of the floor board made the boys be on the edge. They held onto each other as they walked down the dimly lit hall.
"Where's the treasure?" Donald looked at Sora.
"Oh no you don't Donald." Sora glared at his friend.
"C'mon please?" Donald pleaded.
"NO DONALD!" Roxas and Sora chided.
"Geez, you're such a gold digger Donald. We should find you a pimp." Roxas nodded.
"Am not!" Donald yelled. "Are you scared?"
"No." Sora said stoically.
"BOO!" Roxas placed his hand on Donald's shoulder.
"UWAAAH!" Donald jumped five feet in the air.
Sora and Roxas doubled over in laughter. A loud groan emanated the long hallway.
"Donald, tell me that was your stomach." Both boys stopped laughing.
"No….." Donald started shaking.
A figure stood behind Donald, which made Sora and Roxas gulp.
Leon, Cloud, and Goofy
"Maybe we should check on the girls." Goofy suggested.
"They'll be fine." Leon said calmly.
"This place is creepy and only a few things creeps me out." Cloud said nonchalantly.
Leon chuckled. The lights suddenly went out.
"Who's there?" Cloud had his sword ready.
"Stick together." Leon said through the black room.
"Uh, can I get out now?" Goofy was shaking with his shield up.
"Goofy, we mustn't tread alone. Who knows what'll happen." Leon scolded Goofy.
"There's no such thing as ghosts." Clod replied.
"Sure there is Cloud." Leon said to the blond.
Laughter was heard around them.
"Where's that coming from?" Goofy lips quivered.
"Probably one of the girls." Cloud was trying to find a reasonable explanation.
There were no lights or sounds, just uneasy silence and their quickened breaths.
Tifa, Yuffie and Riku
"Ugh, it's really damp in here!" the cold water dripped on Yuffie's skin along with the other two.
"Shut up." Riku told the girls and grabbed a torch.
"What is this place?" Tifa looked around.
"What are these devices?" Yuffie looked at the variety of devices scattered all over the room.
"Something tells me these are dangerous." Riku had his guard up. "Don't touch anything. It's your fault we ended up here." Riku glared at Yuffie.
"Would you rather be blown to bits?" Tifa challenged.
"I'd rather be dead now than be in an abandoned mansion scared shitless and resisting the urge to shit my pants so yeah, I'd take death any day." Riku said sarcastically.
"I'd rather live, thank you very much." Yuffie grabbed the torch from Riku.
"You're on the one who got us here." Riku crossed his arms.
"Look on the bright side, we're safe." Yuffie said optimistically.
Wind that came out of nowhere blew out the flame from the torch. The girls screamed. Dark laughter mixed with anguished cries filled up the black, secluded room.
"What's that?" Yuffie squeaked.
"Don't know." Riku held their hands so they wouldn't get lost.
"What now?" Tifa asked.
"Marco Polo?" Yuffie suggested.
"We'll get lost you idiot." Riku smacked Yuffie upside the head.
Kairi, Namine, and Aerith
From the dimly lit room, Aerith saw matches.
"Oi, there's candles on either of the staircase. Let's light them." Namine suggested.
Namine and Kairi lit the candles on one side while Aerith lit the other. The room grew a little brighter. The wooden interior was revealed along with an embellished conspicuous, rectangular floor board with a red streak along the middle.
Kairi slowly approached the embellished wooden panel. Namine and Aerith slowly came down the stairs.
"I have a bad feeling about this." Namine warned Kairi.
"What's the worst that can happen?" Kairi shrugged her shoulders.
"Maybe you should listen to her warning." Aerith sided with Namine.
"Nothing bad will happen." Kairi stepped onto the panel. "See, nothing?"
Before Kairi could step off, a low rumbling sound was heard from behind her. Everything happened so fast, like a chain reaction. The wooden wall opened to reveal shackles that held her legs.
"AAHH! HELP!" Kairi screamed trying to wriggle herself out of the trap.
Namine and Aerith immediately grabbed one of her hands and desperately tried to pull her. They were powerless and watched Kairi get engulfed in, the doors slowly shut. Another wooden panel opened to reveal a music box. It played a hauntingly, sweet melody as Kairi's body was mercilessly grinded on the gears of the huge music box. Blood spattered on the once clean glass, her body torn in big chunks. As her body went up the music pipe, the music stopped playing and her decapitated body was on the floor.
"OMG Kairi!" Namine covered her eyes.
"What kind of place is this?" Aerith was trying to figure it out as if it were a real life mystery.
The sound of the melody and Kairi's scream made everyone run to the entrance where they were greeted by Kari's corpse.
"No, it can't be…." Sora gasped. "KAIRI!"
Riku embraced Sora and mourned. The mystery of the house intrigued everyone.
