Chapter 3-Haunted Mansion-Part 1

A few days later,when Adam went to school as usual he was met by Tommy near the narrow path which ran across Dark Woods. they were discussing about the test which would be conducted that day by their class teacher-Ms.Amanda. But as the two of them went deeper into Dark woods, they heard the rustling of leaves behind them.

When they turned around, about a few meters away from the place they were they saw the form of a creature running fast behind the bushes. Then there was dead silence for some time Tommy broke the ice by saying, "Adam, what do you think it was?" Adam replied,"Don't know man never seen anything like it." Adam asked Tommy if he was scared and Tommy said," Adam, even I am as brave as you are but its just that I am not able to keep my legs from shivering ad stop sweat from trickling down my face."
Adam then said."Let us not linger around here unless you want to be late for school." Even before Adam completed his sentence Tommy began to run in the direction of their school closely followed by Adam. A few minutes of running and they reached school. Everyone entering the school at that time felt something different about it. Spook school looked the same as always- The same old dilapidated walls, poison ivy hanging from the roof. But it just did not feel the same it was as if it was surrounded by some strong demonic aura, it was difficult to express the feeling in words.
Adam and Tommy met Kristen in the hallway but they said nothing about the thing they had seen in the bushes. Kristen started the conversation by saying," Hey boys, have you prepared for the test." Tommy just nodded his head and said," No Kristen today Adam is going to be my God Fatherl." Kristen looked at Adam angrily and Adam simply smiled. Adam just remembered that he needed to take some books from his locker and as the Trio's lockers were far away from one another he had to walk some distance to get to his locker. As soon as he opened his locker,he least expected the scene which he saw- inside the locker every thing was pitch black all his items were gone it was filled with strange smells and sounds and suddenly many red eyes opened and stared at Adam and to this Adam gave a scream. The scream started a chain reaction and everything present inside the locker came rushing out Adam felt as if dark, hot smoke covered him as the things came out and then escaped out into the Dark woods.

The next morning Ravi woke up very early and went to the "Library" He went to the library early but it was already open and soon he was sitting on his table again and the next book was " Everything You Need to Know-Teen Edition ." He started reading the book he found the book interesting because in the book he found information about many things he never heard about, the book had information about everything from Pythagoras' Theorem to the scientific name of Blue Whale. Ravi spent hours reading and trying to remember anything and everything he could. Then after reading the book almost till the end he reached a chapter in the book which was called-" Love " and as any other chapter he continued reading the book but this was not a normal chapter, it was very different from the other chapters because it had no formulas, no scientific terms, no nothing but just assumptions and guesses. Ravi did not understand half of what he was reading and he wondered h...

“Pooja wake up, time to go to classes”, said a voice trying to wake up the half asleep girl to which the girl replied, “Mom today's the first day of school I don't want to go to Verma coaching institute at least once“ The girl's mother was now annoyed and sternly replied, “I don’t care if it’s your first day of school or not you are not going to miss even one day of coaching classes Pandu” That was it ”Mom don’t call me Pandu I am not 7 year old, I used to like it when I was little but now it’s strange so stop it and ok ok I will get ready soon” She quickly got ready and as usual her father dropped at the Coaching Center. He then said that he would come and pick her up after the classes and went away. Pooja was already late and she was walking fast towards the steps she stopped when she heard the footsteps of someone coming quickly towards her.

Saturday evenings and Sunday afternoons were spent in gardening, digging dirt, planting saplings etc. but Pooja had to make up a lot of stories to come out of her house every week which included everything from " Special Classes At School to Visiting a Sick Friend ". One such Saturday evening while she was working on the Flower Beds near the Entrance Gate, she was working without a care in the world, Ravi came and joined her and they were working so hard that they got mud spots in many places on their faces and then Ravi asked Pooja,"Hey Pooja, how is it that you manage to come twice every week while others want to skip their share of work by giving some reasons." To this Pooja smiled shyly and replied,"Well Ravi the thing is that, I have a lot of childhood memories of playing in this green lot and I didn'...
