Chapter 3

Darrel drove up to a humongous, dark brown house, which overlooks a forest. "I still don't get why you don't like this place." Darrel exclaimed.

"You wouldn't." Camryn mumbles, Sydney nudges Camryn with her elbow. The three walk up past the huge black gate, that was open right now. They continue walking, until they reach the front door. Darrel knocked on the door. The door creaks open as a rather large man dressed in red opens it. "Camryn! Glad to see you back! The man says with open arms.

"Whatever." Camryn says, walking into the house. Sydney follows her. "Just try and be nice, ok?"

"Fine, but there's something not right with these people. I can feel it Sydney. Don't you? You can sense evil."

"Camryn, I don't want to hear it right now." Sydney gets cut off by a door slamming. "I always end up not being able to finish what I'm saying at the moment." Sydney joked. Camryn smiled. "You must be hungry." The man stated. Camryn just looked away.

"I'm kind of hungry Joe." Sydney offered.

"Well, there's cookies in the kitchen if you get hungry." Joe mumbled as he walked up the long, spiraling stairs.

********************************Later that night****************************

"So, what do you think about that guy who got murdered?" Camryn asked, looking out the window.

"I dunno. I'm kinda freaked. Thank god I have powers." Sydney replied. Just then a lady with blond hair and hazel eyes entered the room. "I made some milkshakes for you girls if you like." She offered.

"Actually, I didn't make them, Joe picked them up from McDonalds." The lady dressed in black admitted. Camryn smiled and grabbed the milkshake. "Thanks." Camryn said sweetly. Surprised in Camryn's change of attitude, Sydney takes the milkshake. "Thanks Bethany."

"No problem dear." Bethany says. "Maybe I'll see you too at breakfast in the morning. Don't you like your new rooms?"

"It sure beats inter-tubes in the basement." Camryn said sarcastically with a smile. Bethany closes the door and the sisters can hear her footsteps walking down the hallway. Sydney looks disapprovingly at Camryn. "What? I tried didn't I?" Camryn asks innocently.

It was after midnight, and Camryn thought she would try to get a midnight snack before she turned in. She walked down the cracking stairs, which took at least 40 seconds. She turned on the light and made her way into the kitchen. She found out that Joe had been telling the truth about the cookies and decided to try one.

She grabbed the cookie and accidentally took a wrong turn toward the stairs. Trying to find her way back, she came across the main bedroom. That was one of the things that puzzled her about the strange house. The main bedroom was on located on the first floor. Until recently, her and Sydney slept in the basement. There were at least half a dozen guest rooms, but they couldn't sleep in those. Now they slept on the 3rd story of the old house.

Camryn heard voices in the main bedroom, which made her curious and decided to check it out. So she leaned her head close to the door and began to ease drop.

"She talked to me today." Bethany said, her voice lower than usual.

"We're getting closer and closer." Joe said, his voice extremely deep.

After a while, Camryn thought maybe Sydney was right, she should cut these people some slack. But as she listened more to the conversation, she got an awful headache.

"The prophecy will come true. Camryn will kill Sydney and serve the source as the ere." She heard Bethany talk.

"No. There's too much good inside of her. I have been ordered to kill her and deliver her powers to the source. Just keep her away from the Charmed Ones. Don't let her go near them." Joe warned.

Camryn felt her head spin. She knew they were evil, but not in the demonic way. She felt a yearning to go in the basement. All the evidence she needed was there. She tiptoed down to the basement. When she slept down here she hadn't noticed how cold it got. She looked in the corner where Sydney and her once slept. Her head hurt so badly she had to shut her eyes. When she opened them again everything was black and dark green, she blinked and she saw something that took her breath away. Blood. Blood was all over the walls, the smell was getting to her now, blood was everywhere. She blinked again and then she noticed on every wall there was a spell. The same symbols used, repeated on every wall. The lights flashed and she saw people getting murdered. She heard the cries of people getting tortured. So many screams, she had to get away from it. Camryn covered her ears and tried to go upstairs. When she stepped on the forth stair she slipped. She slipped on something sticky, a liquid that felt familiar. It was blood. She got up and looked around the dark basement.

The cracks in the walls were leaking blood. The screams were getting louder and the visions of suffering people were only getting clearer. Her head throbbed and ached. She ran over to the pile of blankets her and Sydney used when they had been sleeping down there. She picked one up and was about to lie down; when she noticed something was there. A body. It was cut, and scraped, she looked around and everything had blood on it. She looked down once more and the body grabbed her ankle. "Help me!" It screeched.

Camryn tried to scream but nothing came out. She tried to shimmer out. It didn't work. She tried blinking, orbing, none of it worked. She looked at the other end of the sinister basement. Rats were running toward her. She tried to through an energy ball at them but all she did was extend her hand. She started to back up. Feeling the blood on the floor she wanted there to be somewhere out. Something, anything. Her headache was getting unbelievably worse and she couldn't take it any longer. She backed up some more thinking she was going to hit the wall but she didn't. Suddenly everything was quiet.

The screams faded out, but her headache stayed. There wasn't blood anymore, just mirrors. Everywhere she looked there was mirrors.

She sat down on the cold floor that was also made of mirror. She buried her head and rocked gently back and forth. She got this horrible feeling of blacking out, but never did. She tried to call for Sydney, but her mouth only formed the words. She got up and tried to look for some hope of a door.

The mirrors ended in an exact line. Carnival music started to play. A giant carousal was centered in the middle of the bright red room. The music stopped and a loud cackle began to laugh. She turned around and ran as fast as she could. She closed her eyes and hoped to reach something. When she opened them again she was right in front of the basement staircase.

The blood was now strangely running up the walls instead of down them. She raced up the staircase as fast as she could. When she got to the top there was no longer a door, nor a doorway. She ran thought the open space, and back too her room.

Luckily Sydney was sound asleep. She felt her headache come back with intense pain. The corners of her eyes went black as she climbed into her bed. In the morning she was defiantly going to get out of there.
