Author's Note: Hi it's Jewel again. (Please check out my other story as well as Lunar's!)
Hi. It's Mary here. I've just moved house as my nan died. She left me and my mother her HUGE abandoned, barren mansion. She always said we could have it. I personally don't like it. It gives me the chills. My nan was a weird person. Rather mysterious. She didn't speak much but if she did it would mostly be of her dead husband. She didn't like me very much. In fact, I think she despised me. But at least I had the decency to shut up when asked. Whenever I tried to speak to my mother when she was around, she would ALWAYS butt in!
She never gave me a chance to speak to my mother privately. Anyway, enough about my Nan. About half an hour later I went to find my bedroom. It was so eery walking round on my own in the darkness in amongst the cobwebs. My bedroom was absolutely COVERED in cobwebs eeeeew. I kept walking into one, I swear they were endless! There was also dead spiders everywhere. I've always hated spiders. They are just eery. The room smelt musty and smelt of old, burned out. I tried turning in the light but it flickered and didn't come on. I roped around to see if I could a torch but I couldn't. I guess it would just have to be darkness. I hated the dark. I'm off to explore the b-basement.
I-I can't believe it. There's a dead person. In my basement. AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! I-I try to scream but nothing comes out. I can't... I think I'm going to retch. I'm feeling woozy...
I slump to the floor*
"Uhhhhhhh what happened?" Oh yeah, there's a dead body RIGHT NEXT TO ME!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! I can't tell what or who this person is. He looks like he's about 80 or maybe 90. "Mom?" I croaked. Why is there no response? "Mom?" Again no response. I have to go find mother. Where is she? She hasn't turned up anywhere. I have to go.
Right let's go find mom. She's just gone. Forever? I don't know. Looks like it's just me and this empty mansion. I'm really scared. I can't find my mother or anyone. We are located in the middle of nowhere. No one can here you scream. Mama? WHERE ARE YOU? You can't of left me here alone. You've left me here? Forever? No, no, no, no, this can't be happening. I'm trapped in a nightmare. A haunting nightmare. She's gone. Noooooo. My only family memeber. Gone. Forever. Hang on, my mother said that this house is located on a graveyard. I am going to bed,goodnight.
in the morning*
Morning. I've just seen ghosts. I know it sounds ridiculous but I DID see them. It's TRUE. No one believes me though. I hate it here. Ghosts haunt me. They always will, forever. I hate ghosts. I swear, on my life, that the ghosts rose out of the dirt. Mom? Are you here? Still, yet again, no response. I'm lost, cold and hungry. I'm seeing if there's any food left in the kitchen.
Crashes through kitchen cupboards*
There's no food left. Oh yeah, as mom ate the last food. Now I'm stuck with no food. Hmmmmm, I'm really thirsty. Let's see if the tap works.
Tries taps*
Oh thank god for that. They work. I've got water at least. They are rusty and old but they work. Hallelujah. I'm not going to die from dehydration. I need food. Ooh, I know, let's explore the garden.
In the garden*
Oh my god, this is like a wilderness. I have to try and find berries or other edible food. I need this food. It's vital. Omg!!!!!!!! I have found YET ANOTHER DEAD BODY!!!!!!!!!!!!! Covered in spiders and other creepy crawlies!! I have to go away. I can't survive otherwise. I need to find my mother. But what if she's d-d-d-dead? I can't cope without her. She's practically my lifeline. I need her. I think she is dead now. I can't live without her. She needed me. Let me go and find food. YASSSS!!!!! I've finally found berries. I try one, and feel very tired like my bones have been pulled really hard... so woozy...
Huh? What happened? I must of fainted because I don't feel to good. I feel sick and faint. I really do. I think these berries are poisonous. They've made my skin blotchy and red. My stomach is aching. I fell ill. It's afternoon now and now it's really foggy. I want to explore the cliffs but it's too risky. It's too foggy. But I wanna go. Okay I'm going to go. I can't believe I'm doing this. I'm risking my life.
Later on the cliffs*
Nooo I can't. I'm turning back. Right, I'd rather be in a freezing cold house instead of falling over a cliff. S-s-s-so cold!! My teeth are chattering. My lips are blue. I need to go to bed.
In the morning*
I'm going back out to the cliffs today. People think I'm crazy but there's nothing else to do. I'm feeling lonely and lost.
