Syaoran and I redressed and Syaoran found me one of his shirts to put over my top. We found our way down stairs in the dark. When we reached to ground floor we saw that candles had been lit and some guys had flash lights and handing out others.
"What happened?" Syaoran asked Adam.
"Don't know the power just went out. We are going to go look at the fuse box in the basement." Syaoran nodded. Adam handed him a flash light. Syaoran grabbed my hand and led me over to Billie.
"Wait here, this should only take a moment." He said and kissed me. He went and rejoined the guys going in to the basement. Billie smiled at me and wiggled her eyebrows.
"You go girl!" She exclaimed.
"So you think you're all that because you're now with Syaoran do you?" Came a snide remark from behind me. I turned around to see Chloe standing behind me.
"Don't start Chloe because you don't know what you're messing with." I said to her. Tomoyo and Eriol walked over to us.
"Don't start anything Chloe." Eriol said. A very loud thumping sound had everyone in the room turn to the stairs. Then someone started screaming. Eriol rushed to the sound Tomoyo followed him. I followed after both of them. We came to the foot of the stairs to see a guy lying at the bottom of the stairs missing his head. Tomoyo buried her face into Eriol's shoulder.
"Go get Syaoran!" Eriol said to the nearest guy. The guy ran off. Then we heard a soft thudding sound and a head rolled down the stairs and stoped next to the body. Syaoran came running up. He saw the body and pulled me close to him.
"I want everyone outside now!" He said. As Syaoran was leading me towards the door I thought I heard a soft crying sound coming from the top of the stairs.
Everyone was milled around the door as two big guys tried to get it open. Syaoran brought me over to them so he could see what was happening.
"It won't open." One of the guys whose name I remember to be Andrew told Syaoran.
"Go try the windows." Syaoran said to Andrew. He nodded and pushes through the crowd Syaoran turn to the other guy at the door.
"Keep trying Greg. It has to open." Greg nodded and started to push and pull the door and try to wiggle it to get it to budge. Andrew came back after ten minutes.
"The in the front room windows are stuck also." He said. Syaoran nodded.
"Grab some guys and see if you can get the back door open." Syaoran told him. Andrew walked off grabbing some guys on the way.
"What about the door to the garage?" I asked. Syaoran looked at me.
"That one won't work with the power out. It'll be just as stuck as the rest of the doors." Syaoran said. "The front and back doors should open. They aren't on any power grid they are just normal doors."
"Do you have any tools in the house?" I asked.
"Adam go down to the basement and grab the tools. Also see if there is an axe." Adam looked at me funny.
"Sure Syaoran." He said. He grabbed Billie's arm and took her with him.
"Everyone else grab anything you think will break glass and get to a window." Syaoran said. "Come on Sakura we'll meet Adam by the garage door."
We followed the hallway we went down before this time by torch light.
"What do you think is happening?" I asked Syaoran.
"Something very strange." I felt a breeze blowing down the hall. Then a voice whispered.
'You disturbed my sleep now all of you will die.' I grabbed Syaoran's shirt.
"What the fuck?"
"Please tell me this is one of your friend's ideas of a sick joke!" I said. The breeze stopped blowing. All of a sudden there was a scream and Syaoran and I got knocked off our feet by a blast of cold air.
"I don't think so." Syaoran replied. Syaoran and I got back to our feet Adam and Billie came down the hall.
"There is no way of smashing the windows. Some have gone upstairs to try. I've told everyone to stay in groups." Adam said and handed Syaoran the tools.
"Good idea. We don't know what's going on but I would like to find out." Syaoran said. We walked over to the garage door I held the light as Syaoran and Adam tried to spark the door open.
After half an hour we were still having no luck. Eriol and Tomoyo had turned up in that time and told us that the back door and the upstairs windows were all a no go also.
"When we get out of here I'm moving in to a tent in the back yard." I said to no in particular.
"And where would you keep everything?" Tomoyo asked.
"With me in the tent. I can live in the outdoors you know that. I'll also trade my car in for a bike. There is no way I'm having anything around me again that locks people inside."
They boys had no luck trying to get the door open so we regrouped in the lounge room. Syaoran stood up on a table so everyone could see him. I stood at the side with Tomoyo, Billie, Eriol and Adam.
"Ok everyone. It looks like we are stuck inside. Now I want you all to try and get some rest. We are goin to stay in groups. Don't go anywhere in the house without another person." Syaoran said looking around the room. "We'll try again in the morning but for now head to a room to rest." Syaoran got down off the table and came over to me as everyone else go into groups to rest for the night.
"We can go to my room to rest." Sam said to Eriol and Adam. Meilin and Kiernan came over to us.
"We are staying with you guys." Meilin said.
"I have the biggest room so the more the better." Syaoran said. Syaoran grabbed me around the waist and we lead the group upstairs.
I jumped from my sleep. I sat up and looked around. I was still in Syaoran's room he was asleep next to me on the floor. Tomoyo, Billie and Meilin were asleep on the bed. Eriol, Adam and Kiernan had their own little spots on the floor and were also asleep. What had awoken me? Then I heard it. A soft screaming sound. Then there was a huge bang. Syaoran jumped up next to me and I noticed everyone else was awake.
"What the hell was that?" Meilin asked.
"I don't want to know." Tomoyo replied.
"I think it was another body falling from something. There was screaming before the bang." I said. Syaoran looked at me. Tomoyo jumped up from the bed and ran to the window. She started banging on it and shaking it.
"Let me out. Let me out." She screamed, and then broke down crying. Eriol got up and went to her.
"We'll get out." He pulled her into his arms and soothed her.
"I'm with Tomoyo on this one." Meilin and Billie said at the same time. Syaoran got up and grabbed the baseball bat he found in his closet before we went to sleep.
"Move away from the window." He said. When Eriol had moved Tomoyo away Syaoran threw the bat at the window. The bat hit the window and landed on the floor. The window had no damage to it.
"Eriol do you think the weapon store room will open?" Adam asked. Syaoran looked at Adam then at Eriol.
"You mean you have guns here?" I asked.
"Yes. Not many people here can use them and we keep them locked up for safety reasons." Syaoran said.
"Why didn't you pull them out before?" I asked.
"Syaoran is against guns even though he knows how to use one and we have them around." Meilin said.
"Well that's good to know." I said.
"Eriol you and Sakura take Tomoyo down stairs and wait at the front door. As you go past knock on doors and tell people who know how to use a gun meet us at the Armoury room and the rest to follow you to the front door. We are getting out of here now." Eriol nodded. Syaoran grabbed me around the waist and kissed me hard on the lips then buried his head into my neck.
"What was that for?" I whispered.
"I'm going to say this. I love you." I smiled at him.
"I think I love you too." I said.
"You think?"
"Yes, so you better not do anything stupid and come back to me so I can see if the feelings are real." He kissed me again then handed me the baseball bat. I followed Eriol out the door.
We walked slowly down the hall any closed door we stopped and I knocked and told the people inside what Syaoran told us to do. We were nearing the end of the hall when in the light of Eriol's torch I noticed something sitting in the middle of the hall. It was a female she was just sitting there with her head hanging down. A girl screamed behind me.
"Oh my god Sammy!" The girl went running past. Then I noticed the intestines hanging out of the girl's abdomen and the blood pooled around her. When she noticed the girl stopped. She screamed again. A guy pushed past me and scooped the screaming girl up into his arms. We slowly went around the dead person once known as Sammy and went down the stairs. There was a second body at the bottom of the stairs. This one had a face. It was Greg one of the guys who was trying to get the doors open. The top of his head had been sliced off I closed my eyes to try and settle my stomach.
Why was this happening? What had happened here a long time ago?
"Come on people. Try not to look at them." Eriol said. "We have to keep together."
"I can't take this anymore." The girl said from the guys arms.
"It's ok Amy. Stay with Trent and you will be fine." Eriol said to her. I opened my eyes and looked at Tomoyo. She was pale white. I tried not to look at the bodies as I walked around them. When we had all reached the front door Trent put Amy down.
"Why won't the doors open? What is going on?" She looked as pale as Tomoyo. I looked around the group. Everyone was all the same. Banging in the front room got our attention. I looked at Eriol he nodded. I grabbed Jake the closes guy I knew and pulled him with me. We walked into the front room. As my eyes adjust to the dim I saw a body tied to the ceiling. The banging was his feet hitting the wall as it swung in a breeze that wasn't there.
Jake and I walked back to the rest of the group. I told Eriol what it was. We looked to the stairs to see Syaoran and his group descending.
"Now what?" I asked as he reached us. A gush of bitter cold wind blew at us.
"Now you can all die!" The voice said. Then the screaming and the panic started to happen.
