What's Your Favorite Scary Movie? (Ghostface MM)

by BretonMage1

"Doesn't this feel good...?" Ghostface uttered quietly. Eddie could hardly focus on where he was, but his voice sounded awfully close to his ear. "Of course it does..." Ghostface added in a hushed tone. "You just can't get enough, can you?"

4. Trial and Error

He panted heavily, eyes flickering around as he attempted to determine where he was. His whole body was shaking uncontrollably, skin paler than ever. He wiped a thin layer of sweat off of his forehead with the back of his hand, trying his best to calm down. Feng was crouched before him, looking him over with concerned eyes. Something felt warm...And the scent of pine surrounded them./span/p

The way she was speaking to him...It was almost like she was trying not to scare him away. Eddie blinked at her, lips still parted ever so slightly as he let out another sharp breath. It was all coming back to him. The trial, the chasing, the sheer terror he had felt. When he had initially awoken he hadn't remembered much of anything, still caught up in the aftershock. But now he could remember every last terrible detail./span/p

He never really bothered with chests, always too caught up in trying to remain undetected during trials. Jake let out a happy giggle when he found a flashlight inside, reaching in to grab it./span/p
