THE DIARY

NOAH " YOU HAVE LOST IT . "

LILY " PETER , YOU ARE IN DENIAL AND ITS OBIVIOUS YOU HAVE LOST SOMEONE YOU LOVED DEARLY . "

PETER " NO I AM NOT IN DENIAL . "

NOAH " SO LET ME ELLUCIDATE , YOU SAW KATE AND SHE ASKED YOU TO FIND HER DIARY . "

LILY " THAT'S SOME MESSED UP LOGIC . "

PETER " IT'S MY MISTAKE THAT I CALLED YOU GUYS . I THOUGHT THAT YOU BOTH ARE MY FRIEND . I THOUGHT THAT YOU BOTH WILL UNDERSTAND ME . BUT I WAS WRONG , YOU GUYS CAN GO . "

LILY " OFFCOURSE WE ARE AND THAT'S WHY WE ARE TRYING TO GUIDE YOU . I AM SORRY , BUT KATE IS GONE AND SHE'S NOT COMING BACK , NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU CALL OUT TO HER . YOUR HEART IS JUST NOT READY TO ACCEPT THAT . "

PETER " NOT INTENTIONALLY , BUT I HAVE IGNORED KATE'S CRY FOR HELP WHEN SHE WAS ALIVE . AND I REGRET THAT EVERY SECOND . I DON'T WANT TO REPEAT THAT . IT'S HARD TO LIVE WITH THE GUILT . MAYBE KATE NEVER CAME TO MY ROOM , MAYBE I AM HALLUCINATING BUT WHAT IF I AM NOT , WHAT IF SHE IS REALLY TRYING TO REACH OUT TO ME , WHAT IF SHE REALLY WANTS MY HELP . I DONT WANT TO DISAPPOINT HER AGAIN . I WANT TO HELP HER , EVEN IF THERE'S A MINISUAL CHANCE . "

NOAH " IF YOU ARE WILLING TO TAKE THE RISK ,YOU SHOULD BRACE YOURSELF FOR IMPACT . "

LILY " SO WHAT'S THE PLAN . . . . . . . WAIT A MINUTE DID YOU GUYS HEAR IT . "

NOAH " HEAR WHAT ? " 

LILY " CLICKING SOUND . "

NOAH " NO ! "

PETER " NOT ME EITHER , OKAY SO LISTEN , TONIGHT I WILL SNEAK INTO THE MARSHALLS . "

NOAH " YOU ARE NOT GOING ALONE ,  I WILL COME WITH YOU . "

LILY " EVEN I WILL COME , I HAVE WATCHED A LOT OF DETECTIVE FILMS . "

PETER " NO , NO JUST ME LAST NIGHT YOU GUYS WERE ALREADY ATTACKED BECAUSE OF ME , I DON'T WANT TO TAKE ANOTHER CHANCE . "

NOAH " WHATEVER HAPPENED WAS NOT BECAUSE OF YOU BUT I REALLY APPRECIATE THE HEROIC ENTRY YOU MADE . "

LILY " SO ITS DECIDED , WE WILL BREAK IN THE MARSHALL TONIGHT . "

Pushing the heavy gates open the touch of the iron bars, as cold as ice, seized up my hand completely. Even though they could feel the unevenness of the old cobbled path beneath them , they were smooth in contrast to the crunching of the odd dead leaf that peter stepped on . Carrying on up the path the grass carried on forever into the horizon , a dull grey color as if it had lost the will to live and stopped growing altogether.

One lonesome Oak tree stood by the house swaying in the wind and as the windswept by the tree whispered to the air and its surroundings . The moon shone bright white , in the cloudless sky , it was the only source of light that could be seen for miles . Owls occasionally fluttered by overhead , their silhouettes passing over the grass . The air was cold and numb and with every breath I drew a misty,  chilly exhale followed . As the house drew nearer everything around me became quieter and more distant . The trees murmuring couldn’t be heard anymore and the cold iron gates were far , far back in the distance . Owls couldn’t be heard anymore and there were no leaves on the ground , just some aged concrete steps.

From the outside , the house was tall and thin , made from large dark grey stones that had a rough feel all of this sandwiched together by crumbling cement . Climber Plants grew up the house winding around the drainpipes grabbing for the little sunlight that reached this desolate place .

LILY " I WONDER HOW KATE LIVED IN SUCH A SPOOK HOUSE . " THE THOUGHT OF EVN LIVING IN THIS HOUSE GAVE LILY CHILLS ! 

NOAH THOUGHT THAT HE HEARD A WEIRD SOUND .

NOAH " DID YOU HEAR IT , THE CLICKING SOUND . "

PETER " YES , I DID . "

LILY WAS SCARED , SHE THOUGHT THAT MAYBE SOMEONE WAS SPYING AT THEM " I , THINK WE SHOULD LEAVE . "

PETER WAS DETERMINED TO FIND SOME CLUE BEFORE LEAVING  " NO , NO WE CAN'T , NOT UNTIL WE WILL FIND THE DIARY , HOW WILL WE GO INSIDE . "

NOAH " BE QUIET , THERE'S SOMETHING BEHIND THIS BUSH . "

PETER " I , WILL GO AND CHECK . " 

NOAH " CAREFUL ! "

PETER WALKED TOWARDS THE BUSH, SUDDENLY A STRANGE CREATURE JUMPS ON HIM.EVERYONE SCREAMS.

PETER " COPPER "

( COPPER BARKS )

LILY " LOOK , HE IS HOLDING SOME PAPER IN HIS MOUTH . "

PETER " HEY BUD ! PLEASE GIVE IT TO ME , IT'S . . . . . IT'S KATE'S HANDWRITING . I GUESS WE HAVE FOUND HER DIARY . "

COPPER STARTS RUNNING . PETER , LILY AND NOAH CHASED HIM . HE TAKES THEM BEHIND THE BUSH . ( COPPER WHINING )

PETER " IT IS HER DIARY , WE FOUND IT . "

LILY " O MY GOD IT HAS BLOOD STAINS . "

PETER " THE LAST PAGES ARE TORN . "

LILY " COPPER MIGHT HAVE DONE IT . ".

THE CLICKING SOUNDS STARTS GETTING CLOSER AND CLOSER TO THEM .

PETER " LET'S LEAVE , RUN . . . . . . . . . "

THE CLICKING SOUND FOLLOWS THEM AS THEY RUN TOWARDS THE GATE .

NOAH " THE GATE'S CLOSED . "

LILY " HOW IS IT POSSIBLE , WE JUST CAME IN . "

NOAH " I DON'T KNOW(HE BANGS HIMSELF AGAINST THE DOOR),IT'S NOT OPENING , WE WILL HAVE TO JUMP THROUGH THE WALL , FAST . "

NOAH AND LILY JUMPS THROUGH THE WALL. AS PETER CLIMBS THE WALL A HAND GRABS HIS LEG AND PULLS HIM DOWN.PETER FALLS ON A STONE AND HIS STARTS BLEEDING . IT MAKES A LOUD THUD SOUND WHICH , WAKES THE MARSHALL.PETER THROWS THE DIARY TO LILY AND NOAH.

KEVIN " WHAT ON EARTH , ARE YOU DOING HERE ? "

CLAIRE " I KNEW FROM THE START THAT SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH THIS BOY, KEVIN JUST KEEP AN EYE ON HIM , I WILL CALL THE SHERIFF . "
