I will update tonight! I've been writing some ideas down so this first "book" will be even longer but I might use some of those ideas in the other "books" or they will be extremely short Õ_õ
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Forest Lucas' Point Of View I stared at the ornate clock sitting on top of the fireplace. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock. Where was she? We had been waiting all day, and it was starting to get dark. The others had noticed her prolonged absence too. Abigail had grown pale and fidgety, and Arthur wouldn't stop pacing. I, meanwhile, sat by the window. Waiting, watching. Staring into the gloom, hoping to catch a glimpse of her... Abigail had taken us all here, saying there was more space so we will all be able to stay together. "don't worry. Stephanie is smart. If we aren't at her house, she'll know to come here." The house was posh. Very posh. Their family must have been quite rich to live in a place like this. Paintings and rugs adorned the walls and floors. But it was all covered in dust. Small puffs of it rose from the carpet each time we took a step. The only other drawback was the bloodstains. It had spattered onto the walls in some rooms, and dried up pools of dark red stained the floors. In one room I even saw some handprints... Thankfully we were in the living room, where there was no blood to be seen. I looked out of the window, and wondered if Stephanie could be in trouble. The thought made me uneasy. Even though we had all agreed to wait here for her, I decided to go and look. l I stood up and stretched. "I'm going to go and look around the house. Is that ok?" Abigail nodded. I went to give Cassy a hug and whispered in her ear. "don't worry, I'll be back soon." She looked at me questioningly, but I put a finger to my lips and walked out of the room. After a bit of walking around, I found the front door. I opened it and stood there for a moment, getting used to the cold. I decided some weapons would be needed if I was going to the forest, so I took my knives and my sword. I also took a small rucksack with a few supplies in it. I started to jog towards the forest, wondering if stephanie was ok. I took one quick look at the living room window and saw someone look straight back at me...
Sorry if it doesn't make much sense. The first Half of this got deleted so I had to rewrite it from memory... I have a terrible memory.
Cherry- when he looked back at the house before he went into the forest, somebody was looking back at him.
