Hello everyone! I'm back and with a new story! This is sort of like test run, so tell me what you think. This will end up being a horror story with an R rating. I am going to include more of TP's characters, but in this chapter, only Kel and a mystery man appear.

Oh, yeah, the story is about Kel, who was on her way to visit her sister, when she got lost and stumbled onto an old house, with a haunting secret. Dun, dun, dun. *scary, cheesy music begins to play in the back ground*

Disclaimer: I don't own Tammy's character's, Tammy does!

Keladry Mindelan drove through the pounding rain, trying to see through the downpour. Shit, she thought. I don't want to have to pull over. She continued to drive down the narrowing road until she came to a divide.

"Which way do I go?" She muttered to herself. Kel stopped where she was to pull out a map. She figured she could stop anywhere since she hadn't seen another car for miles. Reaching over onto the passenger's seat, her arm bumped an old cup of coffee that was in the cup holder onto the map she had been reaching for.

"No! Screw this!" Kel made a fist and hit her wheel hard making the horn go off. Kel jumped at the sound. She didn't realize just how quiet it had been, even with the sound of the rain on the roof of the car. Giving a nervous giggle, she opened the window of her car and threw the map into the thick darkness of the night. "Now which way do I go?" Kel squinted through the rain at the dividing road and decided to take a right. This has to be the way back onto the highway, she thought. Kel started the car up again and drove down the winding road missing the sign on the left that would have taken her back to RT. I66.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Kel drove for an hour, still seeing no highway, or even any sign of life to help her. The rain had stopped a while back, but the darkness around her still prohibited her from seeing. Her headlights gave out a ghostly light ahead of her. She had begun to grow panicky. She hated it when she couldn't figure things out on her own. At that moment, she came upon a dead end. Kel growled in frustration, but didn't turn back. This was the way to the highway, she knew it, it had to be. Squinting through the darkness, her eyes fell upon another road to her right. This one was even smaller than the one she was on. Backing up slightly, she turned onto it and continued to drive down the bumpy road. It felt like the road had been paved with gravel. Kind of like a road to a house, Kel thought. Right then, Kel saw a glow coming up in front of her. It is a house.

The young woman stared in awe at the massive brick house in front of her. It looked like it could have come out of a southern home magazine, except this house would have had to have a lot of work done to it before it ever made it that far. Thick vines and weeds covered the house, it was a wonder anyone could still see it. Some windows had been boarded up, while others had curtains or shutters to keep outsiders from looking in. Kel chuckled at that. Who ever came here to see it? The house looked like it hadn't been lived in in years. The only way she knew it was inhabited were the lights illuminating from some of the windows.

Kel was about to back out, when she noticed her car clock said, 11:30. All of the sudden, she was beginning to feel sleepy. She knew she would never make it out onto the highway tonight. Maybe the family inside would be kind enough the let her stay for the night. After all, what was all this southern hospitality she had heard of from her friends before coming down here?

Kel, opened her car door and stepped out. Immediately, her clothes seemed to mold to her body. She hadn't realized how hot it was in her air-conditioned car. It was so hot, Kel almost got back inside. Hopefully this house has air-conditioning. Pushing her feet to move forward, Kel started up the gravel path and up the stairs to the mansion. The house seemed to grow as she walked towards it. Licking her lips and with silent prayer, Kel knocked on the massive door. She didn't think anyone had heard her through the thickness of it, so she knocked again. Nothing. Kel sighed and was about to turn around when she heard the creak of the door behind her. Swinging back around, the door was opened, but no one was there to have answered it. Slowly walking towards the door, Kel timidly stepped inside and closed the door behind her.

"Hello?" Kel's voice came out in a cracked whisper. She didn't know why she was frightened all of the sudden. "Hello!" Her voice came louder.

"You shouldn't be here." The voice came from behind her. Kel quickly spun, to see a tall shadow with red hair descend the stairs towards her.

(A/N): O.k., well I'm all sure that you can guess who the mystery man is. No that doesn't mean that's who Kel will end up with. She may not even end up with anybody. *evil laughter* I'm not telling. This story will involve most of the fellow, PotS characters. At least all of the ones that I have room to include. I don't want to many characters, but then again, that's probably what's going to happen. Just to remind, you, this is AU, so I can mold the characters to how I need them to fit. I will try to keep them in character most of the time, but sometimes, I have to change them to fit my story. I hope that you liked it. I might continue, I might not. I want to know what you all think. From the summary in the beginning, do you like it? Please tell me. Oh well, even if you don't, I'll probably finish it anyway!
