The next day, Denny and George tried to contact Jonny through the phone to deliver his homework and to go clubbing later on.  Unfortunately, he could not be contacted.  They decided to go to his house.  His dad came out.

            “Oh, it’s you guys.  Is Jonny with you?” his dad said, started to form a worried face.

            “…no, he’s not home?” George asked.

            “No, he didn’t come home.  I thought he stayed over at one of your houses. You don’t think he ran away from home do you?”

            “Don’t worry, we’ll find him.” Denny replied.

The two boys left. 

            “What do you think happened, Denny?”

            “I don’t know man… but you got any cash? I’m running out of gas.”

            “What! Why did you drive this piece of shit out then!”

            “Shut up! I’ll leave you on the road!”

            “Here, I got 10 bucks, it’s all I got.”

            “Thanks man.”

            Denny stopped by the gas station to grab some no name gas. 

            “Where we headin?” George asked.

            “To the park where we can be alone.”

            “What the fuck!”

            “Shit man, I’m joking, to Vanny’s house! She’ll know what to do.”

            They burst into my house and saw Salina and I eating.

            “So remember that beaver looking dude, what’s his name Bucky? I think he’s gay.  He has long slender fingers and I saw him and this blond dude holding hands… What the heck! Don’t you guys knock! This is trespassing! TRESPASSING! Salina, call the cops. Oh wait, get my gay bro to hump their legs! ADRIAN!!!!!!” I shouted.

            “Whoa whoa, sorry! Plz not Adrian, I’m beggin you!” George begged as the two boys went down on their knees. Seeing their pitiful faces, I let them go this time.  They got up and we all sat around the table.  The kitchen was mostly white with a sky light 12 ft above us.  The floor were checkered and on the wall closest to our dining table was a 1 million piece puzzle my cousin put together and framed of Snoopy.  On the left side of the kitchen was a sliding glass door that leads to my backyard.  Our pond can be seen from there.  Denny sat close to the glass door to admire the various flowers grown in our backyard. 

            “Hey, who’s fishin in your pond?” Denny asked.

            “Huh, nobody! Who fishes for goldfishes?” I said.

            Salina walked over to Denny to see the fisherman and said, “Andy does… along with Dom?”

            “WHAT THE FUCK! That’s it! This is trespassing! He’s gonna face something worse than having my bro hump his leg! Denny, George, grab em now!”

            The two ran towards the two, however, Dom got away in time.  Andy was caught.  Salina went to the garage to grab multiple skipping ropes and got us to tie him up outside. 

            The evil eyes were shown on all off our faces after Andy was tied up.  A smirk came on our faces as George put the final touches to our accomplishment, a piece of duck tape for his mouth.  Andy was struggling like a goldfish out of water.  I said, “Resistance is futile.  You get a punishment worse than Adrian humping your leg! But first, we’ll leave you here while we go inside to eat.”

            We left him in the backyard, visible through my glass doors.  We left Denny out there to keep watch as George told us about Jonny’s disappearance.

            “You don’t think… the message?” I said solemnly.

            “Fuck, what if it is?”

            “Hey, maybe we’ll get some clues from the pics and vids we took there! I haven’t loaded them yet,” I said, “Denny, bring the prisoner in!  You gotta come in and watch the video and we can’t leave Andy alone or he’ll escape our punishment!”

            Denny carried Andy inside as we all sat in the family room, except for Andy, who is a human cushion for Denny.  I loaded up the dvd and watched the scenes.  The video consisted of many gory objects and we all scanned for really odd ones.  Jonny’s face was turning whiter than white on the camera.  We felt bad for even suggesting that we go in this attraction.  In the middle of the walk through the house, Jonny was clutching Denny’s hand, unable to let go.  The camera rose to catch his facial expression.  I paused the video.  Everyone looked at me.

            “Look, there’s something behind Jonny in the distance.  It’s Samara!” I said.

            “Come on, it’s a haunted house Vanny!” George said.

            I took the remote once again and skipped forward a few more frames.

            “Look, she’s getting closer every frame and her head moves up more and more each frame! Jonny wasn’t hallucinating! What’s more, that’s the path we just walked on, how do you explain that! She had to have walked over to the path after we passed it!” 

            We forwarded to the end of the frame.  A closeup of Jonny was shown with a pale white hand on his shoulder.  Salina let out a scream.  Andy looked shocked and started mumbling something.  Salina walked over and ripped the tape from his mouth, leaving his a rectangular mark around his mouth. 

            “What?” she asked.

            “That sounds like the rumour I’ve been hearing.  He got the call didn’t he?”

            We looked shocked. 

            “I did a little…uh…research because Dom was scared that he’d get a phone call too.  I think it’s some voodoo thing that some shits workin on and uh there’s no stopping her. My possie said uh.. that …. It’s some ghost out to get people.  The date and time stamped on the message, where was he then? He might still…uh… be there.”

            We quickly ran towards the front door.

            “Hey! What about me?!?” Andy screamed.

            “Don’t worry, my brother will take care of you! ADRIAN, ANDY’S DOWNSTAIRS, DO WHATEVER WIT HIM!”
