Chapter before all hell breaks loose basically. Hope you like the chapter and please review.


Chase could feel his heart pounding in his chest as he lead the four down into the darkness of the basement. He crinkled his nose in disgust as he was overwhelmed by the rank odor of the underground part of the school and he shivered at the palpable evil in the air.

He turned to the left down a long corridor and he could hear angry whispers behind them. The blond sped up and the four did as well before they broke out into a run. Chase stopped abruptly as one of the demons from the stair well jumped out in front of him.

Chase didn't even half to think he raised his gun and fired off two shot directly into the demons forehead. It reeled back with a scream and Jasper lunged forward and punched the demon with all the force he had causing it to fly backwards into the darkness where Chase heard it land with a heavy thud.

"They're coming!" he heard Rose yell.

House's eyes widened as he watched the spirits come out of the walls and surround them. "Jasper keep them safe," Chase yelled and the raven haired ghost ran and slide to a stop in front of House and Wilson taking out two of the spirits who were lunging at the two doctors, fangs and nails barred.

Rose fought along side Chase and she was furious in her movements. Her sharpened claws dug into her former classmates necks destroying them instantly. Chase was glad he allowed her to help them or they would be in huge trouble.

"Move!" Chase called as he and Rose cleared a path in the sea of angry blackness, not paying much attention to the sharp claws digging into his stomach, back, and arms. Jasper was having a hard time keeping House and Wilson moving fast enough while fighting off all the spirits Rose and Chase missed.

Wilson cried out as one of the spirits swiped at him and cut into his upper arm with its nails.

"Wilson!" House yelled as he pulled the younger doctor to him as Jasper leaped into the air and took the spirits head off with a round house kick.

Chase knew he was close to be out of bullets and he needed to save some for the demon. Just as he was about to switch from using his gun to hand to hand combat the spirits backed off. They didn't flee like they had in the common area of the school but they lowered their hands ands backed away from the small group enough to give them some breathing room.

"What are they doing?" Chase asked Rose not taking his eyes off the hissing mass or his finger off the trigger.

"I don't know, they've never done this before," Rose said even more wary than Chase was.

Chase took a step forward and the circle shifted with him. "I think they want us to reach the demon," the blond said.

"Robbie, Wilson 'ere's hurt," Jasper said and Chase looked at Wilson's bleeding arm.

"I'm sorry Wilson I can't help heal you right now, I need all the energy I have to kill this thing," Chase said as he stared helpless at the blood running down Wilson's arm, ruining forever the neatly pressed shirt that was covered in ash, dust, and blood.

"It's ok," House said as he took off his blue button up shirt leaving only a black under shirt on him and ripped it into thick blue strips before wrapping them skillfully around Wilson's wounded arm.

Chase nodded, satisfied at House's attempt to keep the bleeding under control.

"Walker of the dead we can't stay here, they're getting impatient," Rose said as she walked over to him.

Chase looked over at the deformed spirits and saw that they were shifting around in frustration and annoyance.

"Alright everyone keep tight and move fast," Chase ordered and House was oddly reminded of his father and he wondered if the elder House had ever been in a situation as terrifying as this. House didn't think so.

Rose guided them through the underground tunnels making sure not to get to close to the spirits that growled and hissed at her.

"We're close" she whispered her voice tight with fear.

The golden eyed spirits parted and Chase raised his gun, moving quickly past the crowd before turning to give the other four cover as they too passed.

"It's there," Rose said and Chase looked over his shoulder to see that she was pointing to the boiler room.

"Fucking figures, gotta pick the room that looks the closest like hell," Chase said as he backed up, not taking his eyes off the grinning spirits.

"How many bullets do you have left?" House asked.

"I don't know 5 or 6 maybe," Chase said.

"Can you kill it with that many?" Wilson asked.

"I couldn't kill it with 100 bullets let alone 5 or 6," Chase said grimly.
