The House of Mysteries: The Start
Unending BE - episode 424005
"What's wrong Katie, chicken?" Both Katie and Tiffany were staring at the old mansion. "I don't know about it, Tiff. It is supposed to be haunted." Katie was sixteen years old. She was petite for her age with raven black hair and a cute, innocent face. She was wearing glasses. Tiffany was her best friend. She was taller by almost a head and older by a few months. She had long light brown hair and her face was spotted with freckles. Both of them were walking home from school together. They have been best friends since elementary school.
"H-hey wait!" Tiff was already walking towards the old house. It was supposed to be owned by an old mad scientist that would create strange experiments. That is what she heared anyways. Anyways he was killed in an electric shock many years ago. His body was not found for months after death. Katie was running to catch up to Tiff her school uniform was fluttering in the wind. The house was boarded up. The grass was overgrown with weeds.
Tiffany stopped at one of the windows and tugged at one of the boards. "Ugh!" She groaned. The nail broke loose hitting her in the face. "Ow ow ow ow." She stopped for a second to regain her composure and let the sting to fade. "You alright Tiff?" Katie asked. "Yeah, yeah. Let's go in." Tiffany said poking her head through the window. The room was dark. The shards from the window was laying across the ground. "You have the flashlight right." Katie handed the flashlight to her. Tiffany crawled in and Katie followed. The place scattered with furniture and scraps of paper. Katie hit the lightswitch. Amazingly lights came on creating a orangish glow over everything.
"You'd think they would turn off the electricity to this place, right." Tiff remarked and turned off the flashlight. And started to look around. The floorboards creaked under their footsteps and the lights flickered. Katie felt her hair stand up on the back of her neck. "I still think this place is pretty creepy." There was a staircase off to the right going upstairs. Tiff looked back. "Quit being a wuss, no-cans. Maybe we can find one of his inventions. We will be sure to get an A on our report." Tiff would poke fun of Katie for her obvious flat chest. It was more of a innocent joke and it did not get to her that much. There was also a door leading to the dining room and stairs down to the basement. "So what is the plan?" Katie askes.
*"Let's check out the kitchen. I am sure that there would not be anything worthy to eat in there, but it's worth a shot."
