*Amy's POV*

After a fair amount of time and a new outlook on Rita's, as well as my own, physique we finish the movie and everyone look thoroughly content.

"I hate to break up the good vibes we've got going on here but we should probably figure out what we are going to do next," I suggest and Katie sits up from where she previously had her head resting in Rita's lap.

"I'm sure we can find something else to watch on NetFlix, there is almost always something new," Katie replies.

"As tempting as that is, I think Amy meant more about our situation and how we intend to get home," Rita says from behind her and Katie nods in understanding, "Right, good point."

"Well for starters we should probably figure out how you guys got here in the first place," Shane points out and we all release noises of agreement.

"What was the last thing that happened before you guys found us?" I ask and Rita begins to relay what happened.

"We decided to take a trip down to Austin just because neither of us had been before and when we got here we saw that there was a fair, so we checked into our hotel and then headed for the fair,"

"We were having fun and then it started pouring down rain and the lightning and thunder started, Rita took off for the haunted house and when we got inside there was this massive bang, it was like the roof got hit by some lightning, and then I got separated from Rita and found you two," Katie picks up where Rita left off without missing a beat.

"The lightning, that must have been it. When it hit the roof it transported you two here somehow," Karma exclaims.

"Well even if it was the lightning, that doesn't really help us figure out how we are supposed to get home," Rita points out and Karma deflates a little.

"This seems like something out of a movie," Katie mutters rather hopelessly.

"Wait, what if it is? Not an actual movie obviously, but like in all those movies where something like this happens and the hero has to recreate the event to get home?" I speak up and I see everyone nodding in understanding.

"I think you might be right, but how do we recreate something like that?" Rita asks and I see Shane perk up.

"The Haunted House, you guys just need to get back in there during a storm,"

"The fair would be gone by now wouldn't it? Everyone would have left once the storm hit," Rita points out and I speak this time.

"No, they wouldn't have been able to pack everything up when it was all drenched; they would have to wait until it was dry,"

"Okay, so we know it would still be there, but what about recreating the lightning?" Rita seems to be the logical one of the two actresses and it shows.

"We wouldn't need to; we just wait for the next wave of the storm," I respond.

"The next wave?" Katie is the one to speak this time.

"My mom's a meteorologist , she's been talking about this storm for days now, the first wave already hit but there should be another one later today. From what she's told me we are currently sitting in a somewhat extensive eye of the storm," I explain, relaying what my mother had told me earlier.

"So that's it then, we just need to wait for this storm and we can get home?" Katie asks and even though I've no clue whether this is actually going to work I nod in reassurance anyway.

"So what do we do in the meantime?" Rita asks this time and Karma speaks up.

"I heard this webseries 'Carmilla' is meant to be pretty great," Karma offers and waves the laptop in her hands a little.

We managed to pry ourselves away from the laptop at the end of Episode 21, simply due to the fact that the storm was picking up and had tripped out our internet connection.

"Those two are definitely going to get together, you can't deny the sexual tension and the whole 'roomate from hell' aspect is definitely going to turn love/hate," Karma concludes and Katie nods in agreement.

"But Laura's into Danny. Didn't you see the way they were looking at each other earlier?" Rita argues.

"Well yeah, for now, but she's so overprotective and overbearing. Danny practically smothers Laura and considering what we've heard about Laura's dad she doesn't need that, sooner or later Danny is going to go too far and Laura is going to break up with her," Katie responds.

"That's why Carmilla and Laura will be endgame, Carmilla challenges Laura but she doesn't dote over her, she does protect her but she doesn't try to baby her," Karma continues and Rita looks to me and then Shane for help.

"Carmilla and Laura are totally endgame, but can we talk about Kirsch and Will, I mean Will is a total creeper but there is definitely something going on there besides just being 'Bros'," Shane says, air-quoting the 'Bros'.

"I knew he had a creepy vibe but I really didn't see the vampire thing coming," Rita adds on and Shane nods in agreement.

"Explains why Carmilla was so anger when Will and Kirsch were in their room with Laura," Karma says but a particularly bright flash of lightning brings our attention back to the situation at hand.

"That will have to be a matter for later debate, it's go time guys," I announce and everyone begins to move.

After piling into Shane's car as discreetly as possible we head for the fair grounds and are very glad to see that everything is in fact still in place. As we head through the practically deserted fairground we approach the Haunted house and Shane stops at this entrance.

"This is as far as I go, I don't do creepy houses," Shane explains but gestures for a parting hug from Rita and Katie to which they happily oblige.

"Alright, let's head in," Rita says and we enter the house and make our way to the centre where this all started. The house shakes every now and then as the thunder rumbles menacingly we know it's now or never.

"I'm really gonna miss you guys," Katie says, tearing up a little bit, "I mean, we thought we connected with our characters well before but now it's just at a whole other level,"

Instead of saying anything Rita just pulls me into a hug and out of the corner of my eye I see Katie do the same with Karma, as I pull away from the hug I see that Katie and Karma aren't finished yet. Before they have the chance to part there's a loud crash and the roof shakes as the lights flicker out. I can see enough to know that Rita and Katie are gone but when I pull out my phone for light I see Karma crumpled on the ground and immediately bend down to help her up.

"Karma, Karms, are you okay?" I ask and she turns to look at me.

"Amy?"

"Oh shit," I mutter when the lights turn back on and I'm left staring at Katie.

Hey guys, I know it's been a really long time, please don't hate me. I don't really even have a reason; I just hadn't been feeling like updating this story until now. I'll try and smash out a couple more updates today but if not I hope you like this one, and don't worry I'll definitely continue this one. Anywho, enjoy. -Zahli
