Shadows By Day Hunters By Night - Chapter 4 Episode 4 Creepy House

I stood in the shower as the water ran down my back. I was still wondering why I was still alive. ‘Why was I alive? How did the holes disappear? I felt them go through me.’ I let the water go on my head. I looked down as I watched the blood go down the drain. I shut the water off before getting out. I put the towel around me as I stood in front of my mirror. I stared at it. I wiped the fogged off. I looked at myself. My hair was dripping wet. I got my clothes on and went down stairs to find Cole laying on the couch. “What are you doing?” I say jumping up behind him.

He jumped. “Well I was sitting here waiting for you.” He got up.

“Max! Oh Max!” I yell for him to come but nothing. “That’s weird…”

“Whats weird?” Cole asks as he wipes his mouth.

“Max isn’t coming.” I look around. I started to get scared that Max has disappeared as well.

“Maybe he-” Cole started to say when I yelled,

“No! Don’t say that!” I looked at him angry. “Max is here somewhere!”

“Izzy maybe he is..” He looked at me worried. He put his hand on my shoulder.

“I want to find Max..” I say moving away from Cole’s hand. I went to the door.

“Wait!” Cole hurried to me.

I go to open the door when Cole stands in front of it.

“Get out of the way!” I demand.

“Listen you can’t just leave.” He say angry.

“Why?” I say backing away from him. I felt my face burn. I was angry at him.

“You can’t just go out there and look for him. You need to prepare.” He said “You also can’t go alone.” He grabs his jacket.

“You’re coming with me?” I cross my arms.

“Well yeah.” He smiles. “I’m not letting you get lost or kidnapped.

I roll my eyes. “Fine!” I grab my jacket. “Do you think we need to bring anything?” I say looking at him.

“Maybe..” he thinks for a moment and leaves me alone as he walks to the kitchen. When he comes back he was holding the gun.

I freeze.

Cole notices. “Don’t worry! I’m taking just to be safe! Here” He grabs my backpack off the ground and places it in there. “You can hold on to it.” He hands me the bag.

I swallow hard as I take the bag. “O-okay” I put it on. I look at my house. “Hold on!” I run upstairs.

“What now?” Cole yells.

“Just wait for me!”

He sighs. “Okay!” He walks outside.

It took me awhile but I got some things from my house. I walk outside to meet Cole. He stood in the driveway.

“Ready?” He looked at the bag and the bat in my hand. “Explain.”

I roll my eyes. “Just in case I may not get back I wanted to take somethings to remind me of my family.” I smile. “I got my brothers bat. My moms favorite earrings.” I show him my ears with the hear shaped little earrings. “And my dads favorite key chain.”

He laughs. “Okay” He starts to walk. “You coming!?”

I sigh as I look back at my house. It felt like I was leaving it behind. All my memories from childhood. I smile. “Love you….” I turn to walk after Cole.

for visiting.

As we walked we didn’t say anything to one another. I was going to speak but what was I going to say? I sigh. Cole stops and told me quickly to hide. I do as he says. We hid behind a bush.

I waited there for a moment but nothing happened. I peaked through the bushes. Nothing was there. “Cole I don’t see anything.” I looked at him. But when I did he was looking ahead of us. I follow his gaze and it leads to a house. I freeze. “Oh..”

“Yeah..” He swallows hard.

“I can’t believe that house is still up..” I laugh nervously. ‘The house that we were looking at was the known house not to go to in our neighborhood. It was bad news. See a long time ago before I was even thought of. A lady lived there. She was a happy woman. She and her husband tried to have kids but it never happened. She was so sad after finding out that she could never have children. But she was even sadder when her husband left her for another woman. So having no one the woman would horde animals. She would cry every night. It was so loud that no one could sleep. Until one night something bad happened. She became so lonely when one of her animals died. That’s what set her off. She than decided to kill all of her animals. In her defense she thought she was setting them free of the horrid world. She cooked all of them in her oven. After she had did so she killed herself. When police came they didn’t even want to go in there. It was that bad! But people say that to this day when you pass that house you can hear her cries and sometimes smell the awful smell of the cooked animals.’ “Cole do you see something?” He didn’t look at me. “Cole?” I touch him but he didn’t move.

“The house..” He whispered.

I raised a brow.

“The house had someone in it..” He looked nervous.

“Where?” I ask.

“In one of the windows. They are still there..” He points to the top right window on the top floor.

I look up at the window. I soon see it. The figure. All I could see of it was a black around it. It was a shape of a man. I began to feel something in my stomach. ‘But it wasn’t fear….it was something I couldn’t explain.’

“Izzy?”

‘I wonder why I was having this feeling. It has never happened before.’

“Izzy!” Cole shakes me.

I quickly look at him. “Y-yes?”

“While you went off thinking the figure went away” He said standing.

“Where do you think it went?” I ask standing beside him.

“I don’t know..” He looks at the house. “But we need to find out..”

I brush some dirt off my knees.

He grabbed my arm before I could say anything. He stops at the front door. He lets me go as he turns to me. His face has no joy in it. It looked like if something drained all the happiness out. “We need to be quiet..” He whispers.

I nod. I was ready for whatever was in this house. I hold my bat in a swinging form.

Cole pulls out the gun.

I swallow a little as I look at it. ‘Even though I know it won’t happen again I still worry’

“Ready?” He looks at me.

I nod. “Ready..”
