Chapter 2-The Hidden Room


"Heh, this place is creepy. Wonder why Tom didn't tell me about this. Curse those Raccoons and their ability to keep hidden rooms in unexpecting peoples houses. Wait, if I didn't know about this room, what else is there in my house? There's probably a camera in the bathroom. Ugh, I feel so violated." I stopped to observe weird markings on the walls. There were different pictures of scientific objects. I kept on walking until I reached the bottom. The darkness of the stairs was gone, because when I reached the bottom, lights from different machines blinded the room. "W-what the heck was the former owner of this house doing with all this...um...stuff?" I heard a sound behind me; a metal clack. I turned to see a weird looking animal, appropriately dressed in a mad scientist's uniform.

"What I was doing with all of this stuff," The Mad Scientist started, "Is frankly none of your business." He walked over to me, and observed me head to toe. "Hmm...you DO look pretty trustworthy, though. How would you like to help me out with...stuff?" I paused for a second, thinking what kind of stuff he would make me do. What is he? A Murderer? Stalker? Former Creepy Next Door Neighbor, But The One That You Will Eventually Get To Know And Become Friends With?

"Stuff? What kind of...stuff?"

"The kind of stuff...that you do."

"Gasp! That's the worst kind." The scientist gave an evil laugh.

"Yes. Yes it is."

"Well, can you be a bit more specific?"

"No."

"Double gasp! That's even worse! I'll do it, but i'm not happy about it."

"Good. Meet me back down here tomorrow around 5:00 P.M., and we'll get started."

"Woah...So I just get to leave you down here? Don't you get lonely?"

"Nah, I'm fine. I just stay down here and watch Pokemon Re-Runs."

"Oh, ok then. See ya." I walked up the stairs and went to my bathroom. I picked up my green toothbrush, placed some mint flavored paste on it, and brushed. Then after gargling, I went to use the bathroom. I sat down on the cold, white toilet. It was really quiet in the house, because I had spent all day down in the basement. All of a sudden, I heard a beeping sound. I waited, then I heard it again. I found the pattern; every five seconds it would beep. I looked around the room, and when I looked up, I saw a little red light over the toilet. I suddenly felt a sick feeling in my stomach. "That...that better not be what I think it is.
