Thank you guys for the amazing reviews! Hope you all like this chapter!
On the way to the hospital, the two cars passed several kids, who went trick-or-treating. Brittany watched as they cheerfully skipped from house to house, dressed in their various costumes. She let out a large sigh as the car turned into the dark street.
"Are you sure you know where you're going?" Matt asked as he looked out of the car.
"Dude, trust me. This road is the least of your worries." Finn said with a laugh as he drove into the darkness.
"Great. Just what I wanted to hear." Matt said with a grin.
As the two cars continued to drive down the road, Artie noticed lightning flashing over the horizon. Everyone shivered as they thought about how the lightning will add to the already creepy hospital. The cars finally made it down to the cul-de-sac, just as a large crack of lightning illuminated the sky. The guys watched in amazement, while the girls shrieked in fear, except for Lauren, who laughed at the others.
"Alright, let's go." Puck said as he grabbed a recorder and a camera.
Everyone did the same and followed him into the tall grass field. Santana grabbed onto Matt, while Brittany pushed Artie. Quinn held Finn's hand, while Tina locked arms with Mercedes, leaving Mike to walk behind them. Sam and Rachel stayed in the back of the group as everyone approached the bridge.
"So do you think we'll catch anything with these video cameras?" Tina asked as she looked around.
"Hopefully. I've spent too much money on this equipment to go home empty handed." Artie said as the ground slowly walked across the bridge.
"Shit…shit…shit." Finn said to himself as he thought about his dream.
"Looks like we know where Finn's going to be tonight." Puck said with a laugh as he stopped in the middle of the bridge.
"Very funny, Puck. He's not going to stay out here all by himself." Quinn said.
"Hey, that's fine. You can stay out here with him. After all, you two were the ones who heard the screams." Puck said with a grin as they made their way to the hospital.
The group saw the hospital again just as a loud crack of lightning exploded above them. Everyone screamed, except for Artie, who was fascinated by it. He laughed as he turned around and looked at everyone. Their facial expressions were a mix between fear and anticipation. Finally working up enough courage, everyone walked inside and hung out in the lobby for a few minutes to decide where everyone was going.
Finn, Quinn, Brittany, and Artie will go back to the bridge, while Puck, Lauren, Santana, and Matt will go back down in the basement. Tina, Mike, Sam, Rachel, and Mercedes will go back to the third floor in hopes to catch something this time. Mike told them about the Administrator's office and the Nurses' quarters being haunted and how they're going to be on their floor. Before they departed for their different places, Artie handed each group a walkie-talkie to communicate if anything happened. Each group, then, left the lobby to begin their adventure.
Finn led his group outside of the hospital when another large crack of lightning struck. Quinn grabbed onto Finn tightly as they walked down the path for the bridge. Brittany climbed onto Artie's lap and held him tightly as she quickly became scared. Finn gave Artie a wink and a grin as he watched Brittany rest her head on his shoulder. Artie let out a small laugh as they started across the bridge.
"Alright, so I think one of us should sit alone on this bridge and see if we can get anything." Artie said as he looked at the others.
"Are you kidding? Who's going to be dumb enough to do that?" Quinn asked.
"I'll do it." Brittany said cheerfully.
"Are you sure? I mean, sitting here alone on the bridge…it's a little scary." Finn said as he looked at her.
"Yeah! I want to do something exciting." Brittany said with a smile as she sat down against the railing.
"Alright, well if you need us, just call us on the walkie-talkie and we'll be there soon." Artie said as he kissed her and followed Quinn and Finn off the bridge.
The three of them walked down the path back up to where Finn and Quinn were making out the night before and sat down. They made small talk, waiting for Brittany to tell them to come get her.
"Okay, I can do this. It's just a dumb old bridge. Nothing to be afraid of, right?" Brittany said to herself as she looked around the dark woods and video taping anything she could.
Brittany put her recorder on the ledge above her, hoping to catch something. After a few minutes, she heard footsteps coming from the other side of the bridge. She laughed, thinking it was either Finn or Quinn playing a joke on her. However, the footsteps became faster and faster until they were feet away.
"Finn…Quinn…SOMEONE COME AND GET ME!" Brittany screamed into the walkie-talkie as she heard a blood-curdling scream right in her ear.
"Holy shit! There's the screaming! Come on!" Finn said as he sprinted down to the bridge.
Quinn and Artie quickly followed. The three found Brittany curdled up in a ball, shaking and crying. They ran over to her and picked her up. Artie wrapped his arms around her as she continued to cry, almost soaking his sweater.
"Shhh. Its okay, baby. It's all over now. I've got you." Artie whispered in her ears.
"What happened?" Finn asked as he picked up Brittany's video camera.
"I…I…I heard footsteps on the bridge and I thought it was one of you two, but they kept coming closer, faster and faster. Then the footsteps just stopped and I heard a loud scream in my ear." Brittany finally said as she wiped away her tears.
"No way!" Quinn said as she looked over Finn's shoulder at Brittany's camera.
"I know, right?" Finn said as he looked at her with a shocked expression.
"What? What did you guys find?" Artie asked as he looked at both of them.
Finn handed him the video camera and watched as Artie's expression when from confused to amazed. On the screen, Brittany managed to catch an apparition of a woman, very similar to the one Finn say in his dream, with a wound in her forehead. Brittany's video captured this woman sprinting from one side of the bridge and stopping right in front of her, reaching out before collapsing to her knees, where she let out her scream.
"Holy fucking shit! I didn't even see a woman." Brittany said as she grabbed onto Artie as tight as she could, almost choking him.
"Well, what about your recorder? Did you catch anything?" Finn asked as he picked it up from the ledge.
"I don't know. I was too scared to check." Brittany said as she glared at him.
"Well let's find out." Quinn said as Finn pressed play.
At first, they could hear the footsteps on the bridge as they rapidly became faster and faster. Then they heard voices.
"….help…me." A woman's voice said.
"…Get…back...your…room." A man's voice said.
The recording ended with the blood-curdling scream.
"Get me the fuck out of here!" Brittany demanded as she started to cry.
"Finn to Puck and Sam. We've caught something on the bridge. I repeat we've caught something on the bridge. We're coming inside." Finn said into the walkie-talkie.
"Copy. We just made it into the basement. We'll see what we can find down here." Puck said.
"Yeah, copy. We'll see you soon." Sam said.
"Alright, let's get you out of this storm and off this bridge." Artie said as he turned and wheeled Brittany up the trail towards the hospital, closely followed by Finn and Quinn, who were in disbelief about what they captured.
"What did Finn say?" Santana asked as her group walked down a large dark hallway.
"He said that they captured something on the bridge. I doubt it." Puck said with a grin as he turned on the night vision for his camera.
"They're probably just messing with us." Matt said with a laugh as he walked down the hallway, holding Santana's hand.
The four of them walked back into the morgue and put a recorder on the table. After a few minutes of asking questions, Matt heard a crashing noise coming from outside of the room. Grabbing Puck's camera, he turned out of the doorway and nearly fainted when he saw a gurney rolling towards him from down the hall. Lauren quickly pulled him away as the four of them watched it pass.
"It was probably Finn trying to mess with us." Puck said with a laugh, covering up his actual fear.
Just as Puck finished talking, their recorder slid across the table when no one touched it.
"…Get…OUT!" A raspy voice said over the recorder.
"Well, good enough for me!" Matt said as he led Santana back into the hallway.
"Come on. Let's go to the Nursery. You bunch of wimps…" Lauren said as she shoved her way past Matt and Santana, who quickly followed her.
The four of them walked quickly passed more gurneys, but we quickly stopped when they started hearing music coming from one of the rooms. Matt pointed out that it was an old Southern folk song that his grandma used to play on a piano. Following the music, the group was led into large Recreation room.
"Quick, start filming." Puck whispered as he looked at a man playing the piano.
The man didn't seem notice the four of them as they approached him on the stage. By the looks of the man, he was an older Marine veteran. Matt moved closer and stared as the man stopping playing. The older man's head shot up, revealing his empty pale face. He had no eyes and ears greater then a bat. Matt took a step back as the man began walking towards him!
"Run!" Puck screamed as he finished recording.
The four of them quickly sprinted out of the room and headed towards the Nursery, where they were greeted by children's' laughter. However, this time, Puck and Lauren managed to be prepared to capture something. After recording their laughing, Santana and Matt pulled out their cameras and started video taping.
"Are there any ghosts down here that want to see us?" Puck asked with a grin.
After a few minutes of waiting for a response, Matt started asking questions, followed by Santana, and Lauren. While they didn't catch a ghost on camera, they continued to hear voices in the recording and made them stay down in the basement.
