Chapter Six: Hello, Zeke!

Sharpay, Kelsi, and Lisa (First Floor)

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

"Jason?" Kelsi began to call, handing Lisa over to Sharpay and peeping her head out into the hallway, "Jason, where are you?!"

"Kelsi, calm down, help me get Lisa to a bedroom so that we can dress her wounds. Hopefully they're not infected yet," Sharpay ordered a strong authority growing in her voice. Kelsi hesitated for a moment worrying about what Lisa had said; there was someone in this house. What if he had Jason? Sharpay called for Kelsi one more time and Kelsi quickly ran to the opposite side of Lisa.

Sharpay and Kelsi placed Lisa's weight on their shoulders and slowly dragged them along with her for a few minutes before Sharpay came to an abrupt stop in front of a golden painted metal sheet door. She kicked it open with her bare foot and guided Lisa and Kelsi inside, both of them gently placing her on the bare queen-sized mattress. A moan escaped Lisa's lips as they set her down and her eyes shoot open, starring at the surroundings around them.

"P-p-pl-please h-h-he-help m-me," Lisa whinnied, placing a death grip on Sharpay's arm.

"Urr…Kelsi, please, go get some more towels from the bathroom," Sharpay said, pulling Lisa's fingers off of her and wrapping a stray bed sheet around Lisa's wound.

"B-but you heard what she said," Kelsi murmured, cupping her fingers together, 'There is someone in this house. Someone did this to her!"

"Kelsi, I really do not need this right now. Man up and get some fucking towels." Sharpay barked, glaring up at her.

"B-but…"

"Do you want her to bleed to death?" Sharpay asked all traces of anger leaving her voice, being replaced with seriousness.

"No!" Kelsi exclaimed starring down at the paling Lisa.

"Then get some god damn towels!"

Gabriella (Third Floor)

Gabriella sat down on the white linen sheet covered bed and placed the glare of her flashlight onto a ticking clock. They had been there for almost two hours. It was unbelievable. She had decided not to follow Troy because she wanted to meet up with someone, who was supposed to be on the third floor ten minutes ago.

Her thoughts were suddenly clouded by the sound of footsteps heading in the direction of the room she was in. A smile grew on her face as she skipped to the door. One the footsteps came to a stoop she pulled the door open and tugged the figure of the person behind it inside.

"Gabriella!"

Gabriella was starring at someone she hadn't planned to see up there. Taylor.

A relieved smile was forming at the corners of Taylor's mouth, and then they quickly turned into a frown, "Have you seen Chad? H-he disappeared and I can't find him anywhere!"

"He's probably somewhere goofing off, Taylor, don't worry." Gabriella cooed, growing a little annoyed, "Maybe he's downstairs."

"Yeah, let's go check," Taylor suggested, almost having to drag Gabriella out of the room.

Troy (Second Floor)

"Sharpay?" Troy whispered into the darkness. It took him five minutes to realize that Gabriella didn't even bother to come with him to make sure that Sharpay was okay. Something is really different about her, Troy thought to himself as he walked down the creepily silent hall. Ever since the end of summer break it's been like I've been trying to progress in our relationship and she is stuck in some other fantasy world. Troy felt a sudden rush of guilt for thinking what he was thinking about. Sharpay. These days it seems like Sharpay is the only one changing in a good way! Chad and Taylor were becoming romantically annoying, rubbing their 'as oneness' in his face, Zeke was no different than last year, chasing after Sharpay, and Ryan and Gabriella seemed to like to spend a lot of time together.

"Sharpay?" He called again, stopping in his tracks when he heard muffled sounds. He followed the sounds to a large wooden door, and then…they stopped all together. Troy began to breakout in a cold sweat, his blood beginning to run high. Placing his hand on the knob he swung the door open to reveal…darkness.

He flicked on his flashlight and took a step inside. He bumped into a desk that was placed a few feet from the door, "Sharpay?"

"Mwafhd," the sounds began again. The loud thumping of a chair came from a few feet to his left and he slowly walked over to it following the direction of the noise, his hand extended before him.

He stopped when he felt his hand meet the cool, damp flesh of someone's face.

"Mwafhd," The sound came again from what he was touching and ran his beam down at the object.

"Chad?" Troy shrieked, a puzzled expression growing on his face, and then he saw it. A small piece of skin wrapped a chiseled bone. A toe.

"What the…" Troy began but was cut off by Chad's muffled pleas. Troy removed the piece of cloth wrapped around his mouth and legs and arms.

Helping him up, he said, "Chad, what the hell happened to your toe?"

"Someone jumped me from behind when I was waiting for Taylor to get out of the restroom. Motherfucker cut off my toe!" Chad screamed as Troy perched him up on the desk. Ripping a piece of his shirt off, he wrapped it around the area on his foot missing his toe.

"Troy, we have to get out of here! There is one crazy bastard here," Chad stammered, getting to his feet.

"What about the girls, Taylor…Gabriella, Sharpay?" Troy said, wincing when he said Gabriella's name.

"They'll be okay," Chad stammered, "but Troy, the downstairs doors…"

"Yeah?"

Gabriella and Taylor (First Floor)

"The door is locked!" Taylor screamed, ramming her shoulder into it.

"What do you mean it's locked?" Gabriella said, turning the knob this way and that.

"I mean the god damned door won't open, Gabriella," Taylor hissed, placing all her weight on her shoulder as she tried to ram it open.

Gabriella began to take part in the ramming but soon stopped when she remembered something.

"Taylor?" Gabriella called a dazed expression as she realized something.

"Yeah," Taylor asked out of breath from ramming.

"Wouldn't the band know another way out? I mean, Ryan told me that they performed in this house for their parents Christmas party last year."

"To hell with them, I'm leaving here the old fashion way. Through the god damn door." She bellowed ramming her shoulder into the door yet again.

Sharpay and Lisa (First Floor)

"Lisa, hold on, Kelsi will be back any minute," Sharpay.

"N-no Sharpay, K-Kelsi isn't coming back…h-he's got her already…y-you have to get a-away, t-trust n-no one…" Lisa's stopped breathing and she began to slowly fade into the dark pith of death.

"Lisa? Lisa! LISA!" Sharpay yelled, shaking Lisa's limp body furiously, "Wake up!"

"Sharpay!" A familiar voice exclaimed from behind her.

"Z-Zeke?" Sharpay whispered looking up to see him standing above her. She got to her feet and wrapped her arms around his neck, plunging her face into his chest as she cried.

"Shhh, shhh." He said, trying to calm her down, "It's going to be okay."

"Where-where did you go?" Sharpay asked, starring up him with tear stained eyes.

"Somewhere…that I don't want to go again. Let's go downstairs and wait for the others?" He suggested as she slowly pulled away from him.

Suddenly Sharpay's stomach began to growl and she wrapped her arms around her waist, trying to hide her growing hunger.

"Maybe we should stop by the kitchen first?" He asked her, wrapping his arm around her shoulder.

"Um…okay," Sharpay answered, starring down at Lisa's dead body, "You seem very calm!"

"I've been around a dead body before…my dad worked for the CSI. He did autopsies."

"I didn't know that!" Sharpay exclaimed starring at him with disbelief.

"You've never asked." Was all he said as he guided her to the downstairs kitchen.

Where the hell is Arvin? What's up with Zeke? What has happened to Martha and Kelsi?
