In this chapter I am going to have different POV's so that you can get into the mind of some more of the characters! Thanks for reviewing! Every one of your reviews brightened my day!
Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight, or any of the amazing characters.
Previously:"What are you looking at?" I whisper asked.
"That." Emmett said as he pointing directly in front of him.
I glanced to where he was pointing, and was shocked with what I saw. There was another staircase, but this time, it lead up. Emmett was scanning the staircase and I couldn't see where the stairs ended.
"Here we go again." Emmett muttered as he started walking up the never ending stairs.
Emmett's POV
I started walking up the stairs. Who in their right mind would build a house like this? A bunch of freaks, that's who.
Why did we have to come here in the first place? Oh, right. Alice made us come here. Stupid pixie. Why is she the one who always gets us in situations like these?
I heard whispering coming from behind me. I turned, and everyone was either looking at the ground, or looking straight ahead. Ok, this house is really starting to freak me out. I stopped walking.
"Who was just whispering?" I asked them.
Everyone was just standing there with a confused expression.
"What are you taking about Emmett?" Rosalie questioned.
"I heard whispering, and when I turned to see who it was, everybody was pretending like they didn't know what was going on. Somebody tell me who was whispering!" My voice started to get louder towards the end.
"Emmett no one was whispering!" Rose yelled. "And I don't like being accused of something I didn't do!"
I looked around into everybody's eyes. They were all being sincere. Man I am such a screw up.
Rose's POV
Emmett just pisses me off sometimes. Not only is it bad enough that we have to be in the hell hole, Emmett has to get on my last nerve. My whole body was starting to shake from being so furious.
"I'm sorry baby," Emmett said calmly as he walked down a few steps, and snaked his arm around my waist. "I didn't mean to upset you." he whispered in my ear.
I automatically felt my anger disappear. I will always be amazed that those simple words out of his mouth could make me feel so much better.
"It's ok; I know you weren't trying to upset me." I whispered. "It just happens sometimes."
Everyone around us giggled. I soon realized, that I was giggling as well.
Our laughter soon died down, and everyone was serious again.
"We should get going." I said, breaking the silence.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Alice stood to the side, and motioned for Emmett to go first. She had on one of her famous expressions, your-crazy-if-you-think-I-am-going-first. I rolled my eyes her, and she sent me a death glare.
Emmett walked beside Alice, glanced at her for a moment, and started walking up the horrendous staircase. After Emmett was a few steps ahead of Alice, she started skipping up the stairs. I followed behind Alice, unwillingly I might add. This place is ridiculously sick. All the torture items, and ghosts to top it all off. I can't remember a time when I ever believed in ghost, but now, that all has changed. I closed my eyes, and continued walking up the stairs; it calms me when I have my eyes shut, why I don't know. I don't know how long I had been walking like that, but it must have been a long time because I heard Alice's voice coming from above me.
"Stop." I heard Alice whisper.
I immediately stopped dead in my tracks. I slowly open my eyes to see Emmett standing in front of another door. I wonder what's going to happen now?
Bella's POV
It's official, this house hates me. I have tripped to many times to count while walking up these damn stairs, and I am sick and tired of it. If it wasn't for Edward, I would have fell flat on my face each and every time. All of a sudden, everyone came to a complete stop, and I lurched forward. I automatically clenched my eyes shut, and threw my hands out if front of my face to protect me from the impact; I felt a familiar pair of strong arms snake around my waist to stop me from falling. I slowly opened my eyes to see Edward's emerald green eyes staring back at me in concern. I quickly looked away as a blush appeared on my face. Edward pulled me up with ease. I looked around at my friends, they was all watching Emmett. I wriggled out of Edward's hold as his brow furrowed in confusion. I walked up beside Emmett; he was fidgeting with the doorknob.
"What's wrong Emmett?" I asked stupidly.
"We are stuck in the house, that's what's wrong." He snapped.
It didn't bother me none, that was just Emmett, he done this kind of stuff all the time, and each time he apologizes. 3.…..2.…..1.…..
"I'm sorry Bella." Emmett sighed. Right on cue. "I didn't mean to snap. This stupid door just won't open."
"It's ok." I said whole heartedly.
Emmett gave me a small grin, and turned back towards the door. He started twisting and turned the door knob, but it still didn't turn fully.
I looked over to Alice, to see she was pondering on something. I tried as hard as I could to figure out what she was thinking about, but I couldn't pinpoint it. Then all of a sudden, I noticed something that might open the door. I quickly glanced at the doorknob, and back to Alice. My eyes got wide in excitement, and surprise. I was excited because this would work. I was surprised because I thought of it.
(I just about stopped here, but being the nice author I am, I decided to not leave you hanging like I usually do. (Still don't mean I won't give you a cliffy later on ^-^))
Alice's POV
How can we get the door open? There has to be some obvious way to get it open, and we are just to blind to see it. Come on Alice…think. Ugh, I can think in this place!
"Alice," Bella said.
I snapped out of my concentration, and turned to her. She looked like she was going to pass out from excitement. She starting bouncing up and down. She started looking like me. I sent her a confused look.
"What Bella?" I asked curiously.
"Hand me that bobby pin in your hair." Bella instructed.
"Why?" I asked, now utterly confused.
Bella groaned in frustration.
"Just hand it to me!" She demanded.
I looked back at Edward. He looked just as confused as I felt. I turned back to Bella to see she was standing there with her hand held out, palm up. She was looking very impatient.
I slowly started pulling one of the bobby pins out of my hair, catching one or two strands of hair between my fingers and pulling them out, too. I flinched in pain as the bobby pin finally came out. I sat the bobby pin in Bella's palm carefully. Her hand clamped around the hair piece as she walked in front of Emmett, and knelt down in front of the doorknob. She pulled the bobby pin open, and started working it around inside the keyhole.
She was opening the door! Duh, why didn't I think of that? Oh that's right, because I'm stupid!
I watched Bella as she worked her magic on the door. I waited patiently as Bella twisted her hand in funny motions, until I heard the door make a familiar click. My jaw nearly dropped. Bella stood up with a cheeky grin on her face. She handed me the broken bobby pin.
"Thanks?" I questioned as I let the bobby pin fall to the floor and land with a slight clatter.
Bella turned the door knob fully, and let the door swing open.
(Almost ended it here, but I'm still in a nice mood! ^-^)
The door flew open and hit the wall. Bella walked into the room, followed by Emmett. I walked up the rest of the stairs, and through the doorframe. I was afraid of what I night see, but luckily it was just a bare room.
The room consisted of hardwood flooring, wooden walls, and a wooden door on the other side of the room. If I didn't know any better, I would think this room would be connected to a cabin.
I took a few more steps into the room. Dust was moving around in the air, and laying on the floors. With each step I took, the dust moved around the room, causing me to cough.
I took a few slow circles, observing every inch of the room. Nothing suspicious, except for the door across the room.
I started walking forward, my goal was to reach the other side in a few strides. Not going to happen.
I heard cracking wood. My feet fell out from under me.
I expected to hit the floor, so wrong. The floor fell out from under me.
I started fall through the hole in the floor. My only instinct was to try to grab on to something before I hit whatever was below me.
AN: Cliffhanger……. Just like I gave you hint about earlier. So how did you like it? This story is slowly coming to an end. Only a few more chapters left. I won't be updating this weekend because I have to go Christmas shopping on Saturday, and I have finals next week. So what time I won't be shopping, I will be studying. Also, I want to have more reviews on this story by the end so…… I need to have 5 reviews before I upload a new chapter. I have only been getting 2 or 3 reviews for each chapter, and I know you can do it because I know how many hits this story gets! So, review! And you will get a new chapter as soon as I possibly can!
Lots of love,
