Chapter Five: Do you have a spare toe?

Chad (Somewhere)

Chad woke up strapped to a cold hard surface. A throbbing pain was growing in his neck and forehead. His eyes began to tear up as something tarred through his flesh. His screams of pain were muffled by the large piece of cloth running around his mouth. His body began to shake rapidly and he couldn't control it. A dark figure clasped onto his hand, prying it open and placing a smooth, damp object in his hand. It took him a moment to realize it was his big toe.

"Ahhhhhh!" His yell being muffled by the cloth. He squirmed around in the chair, felling the roughness of his bounding rubbing against his sweaty flesh, causing friction to redden his wrists and arms. The bone was jagged now and the flesh was half torn off from it.

The figure's hand reached out like an anaconda attacking it's pray and grabbed his hand, running his blade up and down his wrist, finally stopping over a large vain, he ran the blade through his arm, pinning it to the hand rest of the chair.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Sharpay, Kelsi, and Jason (First floor)

They traveled down the hall huddled together, flashlights running around in all directions around them. Sharpay had a death grip on Jason's forearm and Kelsi held tightly onto his hand.

"Girls come one already," Jason bellowed, tugging out of their reach a few feet in front of them. Sharpay and Kelsi clinged to each other for support instead as they walked down the quiet hallway.

"Sharpay?" Jason called from the door at the end of the hallway.

"Yeah, Jason?" She whispered as they slowly approached him.

"Was this the last place you saw Zeke?" He asked, motioning to the closed door.

"Yeah, but guys…I didn't close the door when I left, it was wide open," She informed them, gripping harder onto Kelsi's arm.

"Stay behind me guys," Jason commanded, slowly opening the door. Once they were inside the sound of running water could be heard. The water was pouring out of the bathtub and Jason ran over to the tub. It was full of dark colored water and he slowly turned the knob to turn the water off. As the water was finally off a hand shot out of the water, grabbing Jason's hand.

"Ahhhhhh!" Sharpay screamed, standing her ground beside Kelsi. Jason starred over at her with disbelief and pulled himself and what was holding on to his arm up. It was Lisa, gasping for breath. Her eyes were red and there was a long cut along the side of her neck.

Jason looked like he was about to barf and ran out of the room and into the hallway for fresh air.

"He has a problem with blood," Kelsi informed Sharpay, as they ran to the side of Lisa, helping her out of the bathtub. Her entire body was drenched and her clothes were stained with blood.

After a few gasps for breath she whispered, "Th-there's someone in this house." Sharpay wrapped her arm around Lisa's waist trying to prop her up. One side of her clothes began to become damp, but it was the feel of warm ooze sliding down her arm that caught her attention. She turned her over to Kelsi and moved the flashlight over her arm.

"Oh god, Lisa," Sharpay yelped, grabbing an old bath towel from over the sink and pressing it over the large gash on Lisa's back.

"Jason, we could really use your help!" Sharpay called into the hallway.

When there was no reply she called again, "Jason?"

Troy and Gabriella (Third floor)

"Did you hear that?" Troy said shooting up from where he laid on the bed.

"No Troy, now let's continue where we left off," Gabriella said, trying to pull his head down to hers so that she could kiss him again.

"It sounded like Sharpay screaming," Troy exclaimed climbing off of Gabriella.

"You're just imagining things, Troy," Gabriella growled sitting up to face him.

"I'd know that scream anywhere, Gabriella, and it belongs to Sharpay, if she is in trouble it would only be right to go see what's up," Troy informed her, looking around the surface of the dresser for his flashlight. When he had it he exited from the room, headed for the stairs, Gabriella not following behind him.

Taylor (Fourth floor)

"Chard? Chad?" Taylor called as she traveled down the hallway. She moved the flashlight's light all around ahead of her, looking for anything out of the ordinary. Her feet stepped on what was a loose floorboard that creaked underneath her weight startling her. She let out a small shriek then slowly began to calm down. You're being paranoid, Taylor! Calm down. So what if you are wandering around in this house all alone?

She continued until she heard the same floorboard creak. She knew she couldn't have stepped on anything else creaking because she was standing on stable ground. She swiftly turned around to look behind her but was greeted with darkness.

"Hello? An-anyone there?" Taylor called into the darkness, running her flashlight across the darkness of the hallway behind her.

Ryan (Kitchen)

Ryan ran a hand through his mane of blonde hair and starred down at his sweaty palm. His lip slightly quivered and he shook where he stood. He set his flashlight down and looked around the room. Walking over to the refrigerator he pulled the door open and grabbed a granny smith's apple in all its green glory. Sitting down in the stool opposite to the blood stained stool he took a bite out of the juicy fruit.

"Fabulous," He exclaimed, mimicking Sharpay's usual icy tone.

What is going to happen to Chad and Lisa? Where the hell is Zeke? What is up with Gabriella?
