Thanks a lot for the reviews. Here's another chapter:
Chapter 8... Here Comes A Regular
12:30 PM
"I'm not messing around Sam!" Screamed Leah, as she kicked the girl again. The girl groaned and whispered, "Would you stop that?!" Leah rolled her eyes and said, "See, I don't wanna say I told you so, but I did tell you so." Sam had heard the whisper and said, "I can't believe this." He grabbed Audric and tried to make him stand against a nearby wall. When he did so, Audric yelped a little and said, "Oww!" And suddenly, the lights flicked on. Audric stepped ahead, and he saw that the light switch was behind him. The whole basement was dimly illuminated, but it was better than nothing. It was surrounded by metal tools and cutlery, all rusted and old. Sam looked at Leah, and saw a girl sitting on the ground, her hand handcuffed to a pipe on the wall.
"Well well, what do we have here?" Said Leah, looking at the girl. The girl looked up at Leah, then at Sam and Audric, blinking repetitively and said, "Where am I?" Sam walked towards her and said, "Who are you?" She coughed and said, "My name's Basil. But you can call me Cripps." Leah raised an eyebrow and said, "Cripps? Interesting. Anyway, we're basically stuck in a death trap, and are probably going to die…" Sam interrupted her and said, "Leah! Just… go over there and help Audric up to the lobby. I'll talk to Cripps here." Leah just shrugged and went over to Audric and said, "Damn kid, what the heck did you do to your hand?" Audric squinted at her and mumbled some profanities, and she laughed and helped him up the stairs.
Sam looked at Cripps and said, "Uh... well, I'm Sam, and that was Leah. That guy was Audric. Leah actually didn't lie; we're stuck here, with a few hours to get out." When Cripps heard this, she stood up with a jerk and said, "What?!" She burst into tears and said, "I can't believe this is happening. I had just got a new job, and I had just dumped my boyfriend and everything was…" She paused and her eyes widened, "He set this up, didn't he? I knew it! That asshole was out to get me! I can't believe this! How dare you handcuff me! I can sue, you know!" Sam just put his hand on her shoulder which slapped off and said, "Don't touch me! Just un-handcuff me this instant!" Sam tried to calm her down and said, "No, your boyfriend didn't do this. Look at my hand, he didn't do that either. We really are trapped here. We need to get out soon, and we can only do that, if you just relax." Tears streaming down her eyes, Cripps sank to the floor and said, "Why is this happening?"
Sam suddenly realized something, and he reached into his pocket and looked at the two keys. He put one of them inside the handcuff's lock, and the key surprisingly opened it. As the handcuff's feel down, Cripps looked at them, then at Sam, and jumped up and hugged him. He was taken a little by surprise, but he hugged her back and said, "Its okay. Now let's just go up…"
Cripps nodded her head, and they walked up to the lobby, where Audric was lying on the couch, and Leah was telling him how she got the key from below the stairway. As Sam walked up to them, Leah smiled and said, "Finally. I thought you guys would never come. So, how'd you free her? Brute strength, eh?" Sam took out the key and said, "I told you the keys would come in handy. I don't know about the other one though…" Leah smiled and said, "Well, now, we can start finding a way to get out of here." Sam sighed and said, "Yeah, we should. But Leah, I need to ask you something." Leah looked confused and said, "Yeah, what?"
Sam looked at his shoes and said, "When you were inside the stairway, and that snake was about to bite you, why didn't you reverse time, even though I yelled and asked you to?" Leah suddenly looked uncomfortable and said, "Sam, I don't really want to get into it." She was about to walk away but Sam grabbed her arm and pushed her close to him and said, "There has to be a good reason, worth risking your life over it." Leah closed her eyes, then opened them and said, "I cant, okay? I can't do it more than once. I won't be able to for at least another month or so. I tried doing it twice in a day. I almost killed myself. I turned it back that one time to save the kid. Happy?"
Somewhere on the road…
"So I says to her, 'Don't you dare piss on my rabbits!', and that's when she got mad. She took one of them teeny tiny knives, and tried to aim it at my balls! That woman, I wonder why I ever married her," narrated the hillbilly, while Dean internally groaned and rolled his eyes. Dean looked ahead and saw another sign which read, 'Burger King, 22 Miles'. He smiled and looked at the hillbilly, whose name was simply 'Papa'. He then looked ahead to see a small, run down old shack, outside which a number of cars were parked. Papa stopped the car and looked to Dean, "We're here."
Dean raised an eyebrow and said, "But the Burger King isn't for another 22 miles." The hillbilly smiled, revealing what was left of his teeth and said, "I wouldn't want you to go before meeting my family, now would I?" Dean blinked repetitively and said, "But I really got to…" He was cut off by Papa who said, this time more firmly, "I said, I wouldn't want to let you go before meeting my family." With that he reached into the back pocket of his overalls, and took out a magnum, pointing it at Dean. "Step out, boy."
Well I hope you liked it. Please review...
