Chapter Four

Robin gripped her mother's hand, her heart still pounding, and Anna squeezed her shoulder reassuringly. "Maybe I we're lucky it will take him and leave us," Anna tried to comfort her daughter. Robin smiled a little bit, but she was still terrified. Terrified for herself. Terrified for her parents. And terrified for Patrick. Please be okay, Robin prayed.

Meanwhile, Robert had gotten closer to the door. Nothing else had happened or come out. But still, something was telling him that something was there. Then...something moved. Robin screamed. Robert launched himself at it and grabbed it. They struggled for a couple of minutes, and then Robin heard a familiar voice.

"Let go, it's me!"

A rush of relief washed over Robin. "Patrick!" she called to him. Robert realized who it was and let him go. Robin rushed to him. He wrapped his arms around her as she approached. "I was so worried about you," she whispered as she held him.

"I'm okay," he told her, holding her tight. Then their lips met in a sweet but sensual kiss. But they were interrupted.

"Well, if drama theatre is over, I think it's time to get back," Robert interrupted.

"Robert, let them have their moment together," Anna told him, walking forward.

"I'm just being a concerned father," Robert argued, "I don't want to see my daughter having sex with a man right in front of me."

"Robert, that's absurd," Anna replied.

"Yeah. First of all," Robin explained, "I'm a grown woman who can make her decisions. Second of all, what Patrick and I do is none of your business."

"Not if I make it my business," Robert said.

"Okay, end of discussion," Robin replied, "Let's get moving, shall we?" She took Patrick's hand and walked off.

"You made it," Linda smiled as they came back to the meetin place, "Most families get lost and we have to go find them." She laughed.

They all gave a nervous laugh. "Or they just die," Patrick whispered to Robin. Robin laughed more than she intended, and she hit him in the stomach.

"Now that we know that you survived, it's time to give you your next task," Matt started and then looked at this wife.

"Your next task, you will be together, " Everybody sighed in relief, "You will go back to one of the rooms you already have visited, and you will look for supernatural beings," Linda finished.

"You've got to be kidding," Patrick replied.

"No, we're not," Matt smiled, "You'll go back to the to the tapestry room with these." He held up two strange instruments.

Linda took the one that was basically a pendant on a piece of string. "This is very simple. You just hold it up and if it spins counterclockwise, you have visitors," she explained.

Robin shuddered.

Matt held up the next one, which looked like a thermonter. "This one is pretty simple too. It tells you how cold it is in the room, the more downward it goes the more activity in that room." They handed the instruments to the two men in the group.

They stood back and said in unison, "Good luck."

7:25 p.m.

"Do you know what you're doing, Robert?" Anna questioned him as they walked to the tapestry room. Robert held the thermonter, looking at it curiously and like he didn't know how it worked. They stopped in front of the room.

"I know what I'm doing," Robert insisted as he held in upside down.

Robin giggled. "Dad," she flipped it around in his hands, "It's not that complicated." She continued to giggle and Anna and Patrick couldn't suppress their smiles either. Growing serious, she flashes her flashlight. "Is this it?"

"Yeah. Yeah, that's it," Patrick confirmed some what nervously.

"Patrick, the thing is spinning," Robin pointed out looking at the crystal. Everybody's eyes landed on it. "Which way is it going?"

Patrick looked down at it and gulped. Then he finally managed to speak, "Counterclockwise." It seemed like all the air was sucked out of the room. Despite their better judgement, they went in.

Robin looked around as they walked in. "This isn't so bad," she said trying to be brave.

"That's how it starts," Patrick whispered looking around the room. Then something crashed in the room and everybody jumped. "What was that?" he questioned trying to choke down his rising terror.

"I think it came from over here," Anna replied walking toward one corner of the room. Robin followed with the men bringing up the rear. "There's nothing here," Anna observed.

"Yes, I think we can all see that," Robert said sarcastically.

"I'm going to slap you," Anna warned him.

"Did you hear that?" Robin asked, interrupting the argument. It was silent for a few minutes, listening for what Robin had heard. Then they heard it.

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!"

Chills ran down their spines. "I don't know how much more I can take," Patrick told everybody, gripping Robin's hand. Then Robin screamed and it scared everybody. "What?" he asked her.

Robin had her hands over mouth and she started back away from the corner, "Something was just behind me, I felt warm breath on the back of my neck, and none of you were behind me." Fear was evident in her eyes. Patrick went to her and put his arms around her.

"Okay, maybe we should--" Robert stopped when he heard music start to play. He looked over and the strings of the harp were moving, but nobody was playing it. "Why is that thing playing but nobody is there?"

Robin pulled out of Patrick's embrace. "Which way is it spinning?"

Patrick held it up, "Counterclockwise again." He shuddered.

Robin and Anna screamed. "Something just touched me!" they both exclaimed in unison.

"I need to get out of this room," Robin announced and ran from the room. The others close behind her.

A/N: Scared? Muhahahahahahahaha! Good.
