"...You're not talking about moving are you!"
"DUH!" Jake answered in fustration. "I said castle didn't I, and you know what." Jake's face wrinkled in remembance. "I dreamt of the Munster house before we found out we were moving!" He put his head in his hands, "Shit, I'm crazy..."
"That's too cool! Can you tell us if we're moving again?"
"Its not cool Mike and I don't know when they're dreams or when they're real. Well really they're still dreams, they're just of places we end up going to."
"Tell me if you dream of Hawaii, I'll go and pack!"
"Mike I'm telling you it doesn't work like that!"
"Why not?"
"Because IT DOESN'T!" Jake yelled. "I can't control it, I just notice it." He said, calming down abit. "I go everywhere, but I don't know which are coming true... Ok."
"Maybe you can learn the difference, so next time you understand what going on..." Mark said.
"Maybe... But now I just want to for get about it. This place is amazing right?" Jake said, finishing with a change of subject.
"Yeah it is... But you got a sneak preview..." Sara replied quietly. Jake glared at her for a moment.
-------inside---------
Kim and Jessica had gone in with Lorraine, who took off somewhere else, through a side entrance behind the kitchen. They went up some back stairs and found themselves in a small hallway. There were two doors on each side, that opened into bedrooms, and a small little area, after the hallway ended, with a mini frig. and a table. There was also a door and they went through it to find themselves in a larger hallway, doors on each side and an opening up a head. Someone walk by at the other end of the hallway, "Charlie?"
"Hey Kimmy, Jessica!" Charlie said walking toward them, he stopped in front of the opening they saw. "Hey you two you're going to love this!" He said walking into the opening.
The girls ran down the hallway to the opening and stared in awe at the entrance. Bookselves were full from floor to ceiling(which was 12' high). There was a rolling ladder in the corner used for when you want one of the high books.
---------bottom floor(ie. dungeon)---------
"Nigel, how did we get in here?"
"We walked in through the door up the stairs over there." Both were rather nervous the door had shut with a bang and they ran and were now in the dark looking for and exit.
"Where's over there?"
"Uh... I don't know!"
" MOMMY!" They yelled in unison. Both were thinking, note to selves: don't go in the back entrance without a flashlight... scratch that don't go in the back entrance at all!
--------Great Room---------
Kate, Tom and the realitor were talking when they heard a faint yell, "MOMMY!"
"Nigel, Kyle?" Kate said reconizing the voices, worringly.
"Uh, Oh..." The realitor said. "Someone is lost in the dungeon. This way." And she led the way through hidden door and down a hall way. She opened a door and flicked a switch and the stair bellow were aluminated, "This way boys!" She called.
They rubbed there eyes as the light came on and they heard the voice of the realitor. As they looked around them they saw rusted chains and black walls, and on the far wall by the stairs they orinally came down was an old skeleton chained to the wall. "AHHHH!" and they ran up the stairs into to their parents arms.
"Scared?"
"There's a deadman down there!"
"What Kyle!"
"Do you mean a skeleton by the back stairs?" The realitor asked. The boys nodded fereicly. She smiled. "Its fake kidos, we used to have tours and so we put bones in there for effect.
"It effected us!" Kyle said.
"Come on you two." And they headed back to the main room. Most of the kids were now coming into it heading for a new part of the castle they hadn't seen yet...
"I think I'll be on my way now. Enjoy your new home Baker family and welcome to Berkeley Springs!" The realitor said and was on her way.
"Alright everyone, get your night bags and sleeping bags from the trucks. You have one hour, and then everything should be ready, we're going into town for lunch, a site tour so we can see the town and dinner. After dinner its grocery shopping and then we head home, have smores and go to sleep. In the morning, rooms will be figured out and moving in will officially start!"
The rest of the day went as planned, they were spread out across the great hall sleeping. Kate and Tom, talked about the room arrangement, and the figured it out. There maybe some arguments, disagreements, but if they left it up to the kids there would be more problems...
----------------the next morning--------------
The dining room was set the next morning and everyone was excited. Breakfast was just as choatic as always. At the end of breakfast, Kate and Tom quieted everyone down and room assignments were announced. "Not everyone will be happy, but here they are: Nora has the apartment, Lorraine you have the tower room, Kim and Jessica & Nigel and Kyle you guys have the survers rooms--"
"WHAT!"
"I knew that was coming, but kids this way, you will all have your own room. Kim and Jessica, Nigel and Kyle, you can either have you own rooms, or you can share rooms and have your own playrooms." The four kids talked to eachother deciding what was best...
