Marik-Peggi doesn't own anything in this ficcy except for the plot.
Lerisia-Which she won't own for long! Kagome and I already have a plan to take over both the world and this fic!
Pegasus-Both ideas are scary thoughts.
Peggi-Yeah. Not only would they be horrible world leaders, but they can't write their own fics. They have to copy ideas from other fics.
Kagome-So?
Peggi-Well, so you don't get bored with the argument, here's the fic. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Yami quickly took his hand off the door handle. He nearly fell of the staircase in surprise.
Yami-What's wrong?
Pegasus-I just noticed something. All of our watches are stuck on 9:30, right?
Yami-Yeah.
Pegasus-Well, the number on that door is 930. I don't know for sure, but maybe it's some kind of warning.
Tea-Oh, like someone's telling us not to go in there.
Pegasus-Right.
Yami-Perhaps you're right. Well, how else do we get out of here?
Pegasus-I don't know.
Bakura-Did you ever think that maybe 930 is a sign, but it's one that's telling us to go in instead of staying out?
Tristan-Yeah. Maybe the watches were a sign so it would get our attention so we'd go in.
Mai-But who did it? Stopped the watches, I mean.
Pegasus-Maybe I was wrong about this house not being haunted.
Ryou-I told you guys I had a bad feeling about this place.
Tristan-Well, are we going to open the door or not?
Pegasus-I don't think we should.
Yami-Let's put this to vote. All in favor of opening the door, raise your hand.
Tristan, Seto, Bakura, Mokuba, Mai, and Serenity raise their hands.
Yami-Those who say we don't open it?
Pegasus, Ryou, Yugi, Tea, and Joey raise their hands.
Yami-Well, it's six/five, in favor of opening the door, and I say we leave it closed. So now the vote's six/six. So what now?
Tristan-Come on you guys. This could be our only way out. What if it's a sign telling us to open the door?
Ryou-But what if you're wrong and it's telling us to leave it closed?
Seto-That's just the chance we're going to have to take.
Pegasus-I'm not going to be around long enough for you to open the door. I'm getting out of here through the other doors.
Mokuba-But they're locked!
Pegasus-No they aren't.
Yugi-What're you talking about?
Pegasus-I'm surprised none of you noticed that the doors leading to the greenhouse don't have locks. There's no keyhole, meaning there's no key, and without a key, the door can't lock.
They all walk over to the doors. Sure enough, there is no keyhole. The door is being forced shut by something. But it's not like there's a door on the other side. This is an energy force. Or maybe a spirit holding it shut. Putting something on the other side wouldn't keep it shut because it opened inward into the room as well as outward.
Mai-If the doors aren't locked, then why can't we get out?
Seto-I still say we should open the door upstairs.
Pegasus-There has to be some way to open this stupid door.
Serenity-How about the six people who say we shouldn't go into the room upstairs stay down here and try to pry the door open and the rest of us escape.
Joey-You sound really confident that you're the one who knows what she's doing.
Serenity-Look, if the door upstairs isn't the way out we'll come back here and help you.
Yugi-That sounds fair enough. We'll be over here.
The group of six headed towards the upstairs-leading door. Once they arrived there they didn't know who should go first.
Tristan-I'll go up there and see if it's unlocked.
Seto-No, I think I should go.
Bakura-Why not me? I'm a lot stronger than you, and it may be stuck shut.
Mai-How come I can't do it?
Tristan, Seto, and Bakura-Because you're a girl.
Mai-Discriminators.
Tristan-We just don't want you to get hurt.
Seto-Why don't I just go. It's not that hard to climb up a terrace, walk on a staircase, and open a door.
Serenity-Yeah, maybe you should go.
Bakura-Fine. Whatever. Less work for me.
(back with the other group)
Yami-Well, this door won't budge. Perhaps we could shatter the glass and Yugi could squeeze through and try to open it from the other side.
Joey-Good idea. I think I saw some metal pipes around here.
Tea-They're over by the pond. I think they're water pipes.
Joey walks over to the pond, easily pulls one of the rusty pipes out of the artificial landscaped floor, and took it back to the group.
Yami-This'll work really well.
Yami took off his jacket, wrapped it around the pipe so he wouldn't cut himself on the sharp edges, and then thwacked that window as hard as he could. The only thing that happened was a loud thud as the metal met the glass.
Pegasus-What the? Why didn't it break.
Ryou-When Kyle said the windows were shatterproof, I guess he meant the windows on the doors too.
Just then, Serenity and Mokuba ran up to them.
Mokuba-Help us!
Ryou-What's wrong?
Serenity-It's Seto! He's unconscious!
Yami-What?!
They followed the two back to the rest of the group.
Tea-How did this happen?
Seto was lying on the floor on his back with his head turned to the side. There was a small line of blood leading from the corner of his mouth to his chin. He also had a big gash on the right side of his forehead, and a few cuts on his arms.
Tristan-he was the one who climbed the stairs.
Bakura-He was about to open the door and the stair began to shake violently.
Mai-The chains holding the left side just.collapsed. There's no explanation.
They all looked up at the stairs. The only thing holding them up was three rusty chains on the right side of the staircase.
Mokuba-Any luck with the other doors?
Pegasus-No. They won't open.
Mai-What are we going to do?
Just then there was a small squeaky sound, like a rusty door being opened.
Yugi-Hey! That sounds like the door!
Tristan grabbed Seto and they all ran back to the other door to find that it was open.
Ryou-This is too creepy.
Yugi-Joey, this is what happened to us.
Joey-Well, I believe you now. You happy?
Yugi-Yes.
Yami-Let's just get out of here before the doors decide to lock again.
As they were about to walk out of the door Ryou slipped and fell.
Ryou-AAAHHH!!!!!
Tea-Ryou!
There was a loud thud as he hit the floor.
Ryou-Ouch.
Joey-You okay man?
Ryou-Yeah. I just slipped on some of this stupid water.
Suddenly Serenity gasped.
Yami-What's wrong?
Serenity-Water? The pond. Weevil was in.and.the door.
Yugi-Huh?
Pegasus-She means she thinks it was Weevil who left the water on the floor.
Bakura-But Weevil's dead. So you're saying he left the pond by himself, hid from us, and then as he was unlocking the doors and leaving the room, he left a trail of water?
Serenity-Y..y..yes.
Bakura-Works for me.
Tea-I think I want to stay in here. What if Weevil's a zombie and he's walking around out there looking for brains or something?
Joey-That's the last time you come over to my house and watch the 'Night of the Living Dead' marathon.
Mokuba-She has a point, you know.
Joey-Well, I'm hungry. Wasn't Kyle going to order us a pizza or something?
Yugi-I think that's what he said.
Mai-Maybe we have to order it.
They walked cautiously to the dining room. When they got there, to their surprise there were five pizzas sitting on the table.
Ryou-I didn't hear the doorbell ring. Did any of you?
Yugi-I didn't.
Tristan-I just noticed something. We couldn't have ordered one if we wanted to. There's no phone in this stupid place. And I think we may need a doctor.
Pegasus-What for?
Tristan-For Seto. He may have a concussion.
Tea-That's true. And we can't leave without that tape thing being sent to Kyle and his stupid company.
Just then Seto began to wake up.
Seto-One two, she's coming for you. Three four, better lock the door. Five six, grab your crucifix. Seven eight, gotta stay up late. Nine ten, never go to bed again..
Tea-Um..I think he's delirious.
Tristan-No, really? I thought he was trying out for the school play and he was just rehearsing his lines.
Yami-But what does it mean? What he just said was very creepy.
Seto just kept repeating the frightening lines in a whisper.
Joey-Make him stop. It's getting annoying.
Yami-No. Pay attention to what he's saying. I think that it could be a warning.
Suddenly Seto's voice became raspy, almost not his own.
Tea-What's going on here? Why is this happening.
Mai-I still say it's a ghost doing this. We have to get out of here. We have to leave before we all die.
Yami-Nobody's going to die. Everything's going to be okay.
Mai-How do you know.
Suddenly the lights went out again and Mai began to scream.
Yami-Mai, it's okay. The lights just went out again. They'll be on in a minute. Just stay calm.
And just as Yami said, the lights came back on. But this time when they did, there were 11 people instead of 12.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Kagome-We can write twice as good as you can!
Peggi-Then why did that sentence make no sense what-so-ever?!
Pegasus-Um.guys.people are reading this.
Peggi-Oh.*notices the audience just staring* Thanx Pegasus. Well, I hope you liked that chapter. I'll be posting soon. (I hope!)
Seto-And what's with the one two three four thing?
Peggi-Um.it's actually kinda an inside joke from a horror movie. It's from Wes Cravins' New Nightmare. It's the last addition to the Nightmare on Elm Street series show things.
Seto-Oh. Okay.
Marik-Okay, Peggi once again knows how the person who disappears should go, but she wants to know if Mokuba or Ryou should vanish.
Peggi-I know it's a tough choice because they are both the sweethearts and cuties of the show, but if you don't pick I will have to. (Please don't make me choose!!!)Well, till next chapter, bye my faithful readers!
Lerisia-Which she won't own for long! Kagome and I already have a plan to take over both the world and this fic!
