Haunted Mystery
I finally have the house all to myself! My parents are on holiday for their 23rd anniversary. I was the one who convinced them to go. They never do anything for their anniversary so I planned a holiday for them. I am currently on my phone scrolling through my best friend (Evelyn) feed. She is also on holiday. So I have nothing to do all week. *Ding Dong* That’s weird, I didn’t order anything. “Coming!” *thump* *Thump* *THUMP* I open the door but there isn’t anyone there, only an envelope. The envelope is red and has a golden outline. There are bold gold letters spelling out “The Bomb” “Hello?” I say. No reply. I take the envelope inside and open it. “Hello Emery, You have been invited to a pool party down Summary street house 3” I squeal with excitement. Finally I have something to do! The whole time my parents were gone I had nothing but Netflix and food to comfort me.
I have finally arrived at the house address. The house has two stories. Someone rich properly lives here. The house has two waterfalls, and a glass pathway to the door. I knock *Knock knock* I am waiting and waiting but no one answers the door. At this point I have been standing outside for five minutes. *Creek* The door seems to be open. I walk in “Hello?” There is no one here! I get startled by the The door closing behind me with a big thump. I am walking around searching for the pool, But then I feel a sharp pain in my back. I have been stabbed.
I gasp. I am in a room strapped in a chair with duct tape on my mouth. I am trying to scream for help but nothing seems to work. I am breathing uncontrollably. My memory starts to jog back. I was stabbed in the back. How could I let this happen? What if I get murdered? The thoughts in my head get louder and louder,
Until I feel the presence of a mysterious figure standing behind me. They rip off the duct tape off of my face. It stings. “HELP WHO ARE YOU!” Instead of replying they ignore me. I fell down at the attempt to squirm out of the chair. “I am the bomb. You have Three challenges to complete if you want to get out of here” This can’t be happening. Out of all the people in the world.. Me. The figure unties me and leaves the room. There is another envelope with the same red and gold. I open the envelope. “There is a key in this room. You have 10 minutes to find it. If you don’t then you are going to die” If you don’t then you are going to die Those words reply in my head as I am frantically trying to search for the key. There is a box in the top right of the room’s wall. YES! I thought, grabbing the chair I jump up and down trying to grab the box. It falls down cracking open. The key falls out. *Ching* “finally!” the door opens. “You made it” I am looking around frantically to see where the voice is coming from, Until I found out what it was, a speaker. Before the speaker could say anything else I run out of the room. Yanking the doorknob open. I have escaped.. Finally
