"Could you hold on one sec." Coraline closed the window in the scrawny cat's face. "Okay, you guys probably think I'm a total loon-"

"Will?" Sam cracked, Coraline rolled her eyes.

"Okay, but I'm not crazy. There' this world, behind that door that-" She was cut off by knocking at the window. Irritated she turned and glared at Wybie who was standing at the window. "What do you want,"

"Well I was riding my bike when I saw something walking across the road, so I threw a rock at it." He said looking behind her. "Who are they?"

"Sam and Tiff, they're new. So, that's it? You came here at 3 A.m. to-"

"Can you at least let me in!" He said tapping on the window,

"Sure, come to the door." Coraline walked into the next room over followed by Sam and Tiffany,Coraline opened the door and Wybie entered.

"Thanks, so I threw the rock and it hit it. But only this broke off." He pulled what looked like a finger from the Other Mother's hand.

"How deep is the well?" Coraline asked staring in disbelief at the needle like finger.

"Deep," Wybie said confused.

"Wait here," Coraline grabbed the two girls by the wrists and led them quickly up the staires into her room. Coraline opened a drawer and grabbed a black sweater then opened another drawer and grabbed a pair of jeans.

"Um, what are you doing?" Asked Tiff watching as Coraline grabbed a red Mag Light. "Woah, you aren't gonna beat him with a cop light, right?"

"His name is Wybie, and dress in the warmest stuff you have." Coraline instructed going into her closet and grabbing a pair of fury boots and a jacket. The girls nodded to each other then walked over to where their bags were, Sam's pink Tiff's green. Sam pulled out a scarlet button down and a pair of jeans, Tiff grabbed a brown long sleeved T-shirt and a pair of sweat pants. After they put the warmer clothse on they walked down the stairs as silent as posible, even though it was hard with Sam's converses squeaking on the stairs.

When they reached the bottom Coraline ran to a closet and opened the door then flicked on the light.

"Where is it!" Coraline said shifting stuff around."Yes!" She pulled out a rope then walked out of the closet turning off the light.

"What's that for?" Wybie asked from the front door.

"Come on, we're going to the well." Coraline walked towards the door and out onto the porch.

"Why?" Sam asked stepping outside.

"To make sure something is still there," And with that Coralie, Sam, Tiff, and Wybie ran out into the darkness guided by a flashlight.
