”Cyril….” A small, timid voice called out in the musty darkness, ”We really shouldn’t be here….”

A pair of slightly staggered footsteps crushed the fragmented remains of broken glass, echoing silently in the dilapidated building. Standing at the entrance were a pair of conjoined twins, one noticeably tenser than the other.

”Relax. Nobody is going to know we’re here.”

The braver twin lifted up his phone flashlight. The tiny light illuminated the foyer, reflecting off the rusty machinery.

On the edge of the docs lay an abandoned factory. It was an old brewery, rumored to be the island’s largest stocker of potions. According to local history, it was run by a coven of prestigious yet cutthroat witches around the turn of the century. At the peak of its success, it closed down online abruptly. No one knows why, and to this day, it stands. Dilapidated, dangerous, and most definitely off limits.

But, a couple of police warning signs and barbed wire couldn’t stop Cyril. This was a perfect place to loot and smoke. He just hoped goons before him didn’t already take all the cool stuff.

”This is so dope…. You think we’re gonna find ghosts?” He grinned evilly at his brother, who frowned deeply.

”Cut it out! You never know what creeps around this island when-”

Suddenly, the sound of old tools crashed against the floor. Lyric yelped, grabbing onto his brother. In a swift motion, Cyril brandished a small hunting knife that was ultimately useless against supernatural forces.

”Who’s there?! Try me, bitch!”

Marissa was already lurking about. She heard rumors that something awful happened in this building. The stories changed on what awful thing occurred, but it ultimately boiled down to someone died a gruesome death. Whenever that happened, that meant ghosts. Being both a skeptic and an Enigma, it was only natural that she go to this place to get the scoop for herself. See if the story was worth anything then hit up Duke about it.

What she didn't anticipate was someone else intruding on the space. She figured out the magic phone she got from April had a flashlight function on it. Using that, she was able to see a decent amount. Her eyes picked up on a....was that a conjoined figure? The silhouette greatly spooked her. Taken aback, she knocked down the old toolbox sitting on the work bench. It went down with a loud clang. Shit....

What followed however made her lose the tense vibe quickly. She laughed hysterically as Cyril threatened her, recognizing the voice from the community center. The semi-delinquent strolled in as if she planned the loud noise and flashed her light at the twins. "That knife's not going to help much." She playfully stuck her tongue out. "What are you snooping 'round here for?"

Cyril clutched onto his knife as his brother trembled somewhat behind him. He pointed the knife into the darkness, as the flashlight Lyric had tumbled out of his hand. Like hell he’d let some monster-

Oh.

He lowered his knife as a normal, non-ethereal person approached. Lyric slowly looked up, breathing out a sigh of relief. It was just a young girl about their age. And she looked familiar too.

”The hell?” Cyril grunted, not expecting to see anyone else here. When the initial shock died down, he rolled his eyes. ”Shit, you almost gave us both a heart attack.” He grumbled, folding the knife back into his pocket.

”Hey, you never know what a creature’s weakness is. It could just be a cheap knife from Craigslist. You’d be sorry then.” Instinctively, he leaned down, stooping on one knee so his brother could grab the flashlight. He didn’t lose her gaze, though. ”We could ask you the same thing, but I’ve got a feeling it’s about the same reason we’re here. Ghosts n’ goon shit. You in?” It would be awkward now to just part ways. If they were all going to break the law, it was best to stick together. Especially in a building this dangerous.
