Chapter #12 Where to Look
Kylie's point of view
"Good grief, they could anywhere in this place." Eduardo complained.
I glared at him. But painfully I knew he was right. The ride is big and who knows where Sally and Garrett are now.
"Don't worry Eduardo, we'll find them." I said.
"And we better fine them soon." Egon said. "Before I lost contact with Garrett. He told me Sally had visions."
"Visions?" Eduardo and I said in unison.
"What kind of visions?" I asked.
"Is she psychic or something?" Eduardo asked.
"I guess so." Egon answered. "When we find her and Garrett and get out of here I like to run some tests over the summer and with her parent's permission."
I looked at Egon outraged. "Egon, she's not a lab rat, she won't agree to that."
"She won't, but if her parents agree, she'll have too, Garrett told me she's on Winter Break from Sudbury College with her parents..." Egon was interrupted when his phone rang. He grabbed it and answered it.
"Hello?"
"Egon is that you?" Garrett's voice asked.
"Garrett are you alright?"
"I'm fine but I don't know how long Sally will be though."
"What do you mean?" Egon asked. "Is she ok?"
"She's fine for now." Garrett answered. There was a pause. "Look she won't forgive me if I told you but she's what the ghosts trapped in this mansion call the Helper of Humankind."
"The Helper of Humankind?" Egon thought for a minute. Then his face turned white. "Oh no."
"What?"
"Eduardo be quiet." I snapped.
"You're right, it is bad. Where are you two now?"
"We're in the atti..." Garrett's voice became distorted and was replaced by static.
Egon lowered the phone and shook his head.
"We don't have time." He said. "We have to fine them and fast."
"What is it?" I asked.
Egon turned around, facing us. "This mansion was a very popular ride. But it has a dark secret."
"The Haunted Mansion ride?" Eduardo said in mocked shock. "No!"
"Yes." Egon said, a little annoyed with Eduardo.
"This ride was built and decorated with the same brick, wood and furniture from a mansion in New Orleans. This ride was base on that mansion. I didn't have time to research before I left but I find a prophecy tied to the mansion. The Helper of Humankind has until sunrise to trap the demons and free the ghosts or she'll die and be trapped in the mansion as the 1000th haunt."
We stared at Egon. White in the face.
"My God." Eduardo breathed.
"Didn't Garrett say where they are?" I asked.
"He said they're in the attic."
"Let's go then." Eduardo said "We have enough time before sunrise." I said as I looked at my watch. "It's only 12:00am."
"Lets go, time is running out." Egon said.
"Oh there's plenty of time." A cold voice said. We looked up to see the demons Nelson and Petra hovering above us.
"Amazing how they all escaped without us knowing isn't it Nelson?"
"It is, my love." He grinned at us. "What should we do with them?"
"Take them to the séance room. I'll fine the boy and the girl." Petra said.
With that Petra flew off. Nelson turned to us and grinned. I cringed. Egon aimed his thrower at the demon and fired. The demon dodged the blast and flew towards one of the crypts. He raised his hands above his head and black energy gas flowed out of his palms and flooded the graveyard.
"Everyone don't..." Egon passed out before he had a chance to finish.
Eduardo passed out shortly after Egon did. I slowly started to feel light-headed. My vision became blurry and my breathing became shallow. I collapsed onto the ground. Trying hard not to fall asleep, but I couldn't. My eyes slowly closed and darkness over took me.
