Leanne’s curiosity just about outweighed her fear. She wanted to know who this mysterious man was and what he was talking about with Abbie. If it was her they mentioned then she’d rather found out sooner than find herself in another dangerous situation later when it was too late. She crept forwards, listening carefully for any sound and stopping dead in her tracks at even the slightest creak.

She hadn’t gone much further when a noise made her freeze mid-step. Her body motionless as she listened closely as she tried to make out what it was. However the corridor was silent and eerily still. There was no movement and everything was quiet expect for Leanne’s heavy breathing and her racing heartbeat.

She thought it might have been her over sensitive imagination and was about to continue onwards when she heard it again. This time it was clearer. It was a voice. Abbie’s voice.

Leanne hurriedly located where it was coming from and found herself stood outside a door. It was slightly open and she hesitated in the hallway. The young blonde’s voice sounded again. She was definitely in this room, but did Leanne really want to enter?

She thought back to the last time she’d found Abbie in an unknown room and all the trouble that had led to. Her hand reached out cautiously and nudged the door tentatively. There was a slight creaking sound and Leanne quickly jumped back with a gasp.

Her eyes looked down the corridor in both directions. Nobody was around and there was an eery stillness to the air. If she didn’t go inside then where else was she supposed to go? Leanne tried to think.
