Demyx reached for the salt when he stepped on a piece of broken mirror. He jumped causing the salt to fall over.
"Oh no." Demyx was so freaked out that he didn't notice the hand making it's way to his neck.
Demyx hurriedly grabbed the salt, emptied some into his hand, and threw it over his left shoulder.
"Argh!" The salt hit the person behind him in the eye causing the person to stumble backwards.
"What the-!" Demyx turned and saw the man on the floor. He was dressed in all black with a black hat and a mask. (Your typical murderer). "Ahhhh!" Demyx ran up the stairs into Roxas' bedroom where he found the younger boy looking at a curtain. "Dude! There's a murderer in the house!"
"Dude?" Roxas blinked before registering the rest of the sentence. "Demyx are you sure?"
"Yeah! He tried to kill me but I guess I accidentally threw salt into his eye." Demyx explained. "But whatever lets just call the police and get out of here!"
"Right." Demyx grabbed the phone and dialed 911.
Ring ring ring beep.
"Hi you have reached the World That Never Was Police Department. We are currently unavailable right now so please leave your name, number, adress and emergency and we'll get back to you as soon as possible." (A/N: I know that this would never happen in real life but this is the WTNW okay? It's a BIG difference.)
"Umm what?" Roxas raised an eyebrow. "But-"
"Beep. We are sorry but the voice mail is currently full. Please try again later." Roxas' eye twitched.
"What's up?" Demyx asked.
"They aren't home. Or there. Or whatever." Roxas slapped his forehead. "And, the voice mail is full so we can't leave a message."
"Damn."
"Oh yeah."
"So here's the plan. We get out,then we try to call again." Demyx said.
"Can't we just use our powers?" Roxas asked while holding up his hands as if he was saying a spell,
"Uh no." Demyx glared. "He has a gun. I saw him reaching for it when I went upstairs. Besides all we've got is your keyblade and my sitar."
"That should be enough." Roxas pointed out.
"BUT WE'RE CURSED! SOMETHING CAN GO HORRIBLY WRONG!" Demyx shouted.
Roxas clamped his hand over Demyx's mouth and pulled him away from the door. The two boys could hear footsteps coming up the stairs. "Shh." He whispered. "Let's find a place to hide first."
Demyx nodded then pulled Roxas into his closet. "Our portals don't work during Friday the 13th." He explained.
"So we're hiding in a closet?" Roxas whispered.
"Yes and no. I used to have your room and there was a trapdoor over your closet. I think it leads into the attic." Demyx replied quietly. "Come on and be quiet." He then reached up to the ceiling. "Too high."
"Here." Roxas turned over his laundry basket.
Demyx nodded then stood on it. He touched the wooden trapdoor then thought for a second. He knocked on it three times then lifted it open. When he pulled himself up onto the attic floor he helped Roxas up and replaced the trapdoor.
"Why'd you knock?"
"It's for good luck." Demyx replied while walking over to the window. "Do you think that we can climb out from here?"
"I hope so." Roxas replied while moving a couch so it was sitting over the trapdoor.
Demyx lifted up the window then yelled in shock as a bat flew into the house. "Damn. That's really bad luck." He remarked with worry.
"Will you give it a rest?" Roxas demanded then gasped as the couch suddenly jerked upwards as if someone was trying to lift it.
"He found us!" Demyx grabbed his cell phone. "We have to call Xemnas." He dialed but there was no answer.
"Try calling Axel." Roxas suggested while standing on the couch to prevent it from falling over.
"Right." Demyx dialed and watched as Roxas tried to balance on the couch. "Hi Axel? It's Demyx... Yeah I'm with Roxas... No there's a problem... We're kind of stuck in a house with some crazy person... We're trying to get out but we're currently in the attic... Roxas' room... He's trying to balance on a couch to stop the intruder from coming up... Yeah he was never that good...Okay can you help?... No don't come home... Axel!... No-!" Demyx shook his head.
"What was that all about?" Roxas asked as the intruder shoved the bed causing Roxas to fall.
"Axel wants to come here." Demyx said with a shake of his head. "Idiot."
"Whoa! Demyx let's go." Roxas shouted as he fell off.
"Yeah. When we get away I'll call Axel again." Demyx climbed onto the window ledge. Roxas was about to follow as all the lights went out.
"Uhh wait. It's night time so I'll bring a candle." Roxas said causing Demyx to climb back in.
"Roxas no!"
Roxas grabbed a candle and lit it. "Hmm. Are black candles bad?"
"You idiot!"Demyx shouted as the couch was finally pushed away and the man climbed into the room.
"Hello boys." The man leered at them. Demyx looked around and saw a bell on a string. He grabbed it and whipped it at the man hitting him in the face and causing him to fall back down the hole in the floor.
"Yes!" Roxas cheered over the ringing of the bell.
"Okay let's go. And put out the candle that can summon evil spirits." Demyx said turning back to the door.
"Yeah whatever boss." Roxas said sarcastically while placing the candle on a table with a mirror on it. He spotted his reflection on the mirror just as Demyx shouted,
"Don't look!"
Suddenly they heard a rooster crow and a picture on the wall fell to the ground."Let me guess, bad luck?" Roxas asked.
"Well, it's bad luck to look at your reflection by candlelight, to hear a rooster crow at night and for a picture to fall." Demyx said. "Well that and to see six crows." He added as he counted the crows sitting on the window sill. "Six. That means death."
"How do you know this stuff?"
"Class." Demyx responded. "Come on. I think he's waking up."
The two boys ran out the window scaring away the crows. They climbed down the drainpipe and onto the lawn. "Hey!" They heard a shout form the gate.
When they looked up they saw Axel coming towards them. "I thought you were trapped." He said.
"We were." Demyx answered.
"Well, as long as we're here, let's celebrate. I called the police and they should be here soon."Axel said while digging around in his bag. "Ah here. We should take a victory picture." He pulled out a digital camera.
"What did you do to help?" Roxas asked.
"I called the police." Axel said proudly while holding the camera at arms length. "Now, smile!" The camera flashed.
"Hey did you know that if you take a picture of three people the one in the middle dies?" Demyx said while looking at the picture. "And looks like that's you Axel buddy."
"Nah I don't believe that junk." Axel replied while waving his hand.
"Hey, who's that girl?" Roxas interrupted them while pointing a finger at a girl who was walking towards them she was dressed in black.
