Burning time chap : Part 1

(Part 1 from 1. Fiction.)

I awoke in my Matt's car. The cool night air blowing in through the open window just as we were pulling into a shell to get gas. we were in Prescott valley A.Z. and i hate it already. i would miss Reno, i would miss the shitty weather, i would miss my late mother, Rose. after rose died matt became depressed, started drinking, it wasn't pretty. So he got a job offer and we found a house out here in the middle of bum fucked Egypt, hope he likes it.

"Excuse me? " matt yelled to an old man who looked like he was a ghoul. can you tell me were i can find the house on 5415 1st Ave..." " The raven stone house" interrupted the old man " just up the hill you cant miss it, its the only house on the hill." "thank you." said matt and got back into the car. "what's with the Grim reaper?" i asked and pointed to the old man. " Hey that's not nice. he was a help." Matt snapped. " ok fine what's with death?" i said with a snotty grin on my face. "You would think for a kid who dresses like he's going to funerals and wears so much makeup that he looks like a dead whore, you would be a little more respectful." " yeah you would think that wouldn't you matt." Matt just rolled his eyes at me and drove in quiet. about 49 min. later we pulled into the drive way of the house.


i got out of the car and what stood before me was a old 2 story Victorian house. Weeds grew around it, shingles were broken off the roof to me this was a dream house. " this isn't what it looked like online." Matt said. " i like it!" " You would." we waked into the house our stuff had arrived 5 days ago. i could see the shadows of boxes dust covered the floor and walls. cobwebs all over the place. "i could live here." i said looking around. when Matt went to go turn on the lights nothing happened. Great no power, look im gonna run into town and get us something to eat, how do burgers sound to you?" " veggie for me thanks... if you can find one in this town." "ok I'll look be back in a little while. Be Good!" with that matt walked out the door.

I decided to look around even in the dark i could see alot thank god there was a full moon. i searched threw each room in the house until i came to the room that was suppose to be mine, bare and empty. i was ready to leave when i herd a scraching sound. i steped into the room and it stopped. about 12 secends later it started back up again. "its gotta be a tree branch. just a tree branch." the only thing is that sound wasn't coming from the window it was coming from the closet. i took a deep breath and moved slowly twords the closet, my hands shaking my heart racing. I took another deep breath opened the closet door and *BAM* my ass was nocked onto the floor. when i opened my eyes a black cat was staring back at me.

" easy cat, you may have 9 lifes ... but i only got one." the cat scampered off into the house. i went back down stairs. just then the phone rang. i picked up the phone " Hello Frazier morgue, you bag them we tag them how can i help you today." " chris welcome home" said a creepy voice at the other end "im sorry who is this" *beep, beep, beep.* the phone went dead. "ok" i said giving a what the fuck look to the phone.

just then i felt a hand on my shoulder. "holy mother of fucking god!" i scrammed nearly jumping out of my skin. "Its me god what are you flipping out about, and sorry no veggie but Chinese." Matt said.
i was still dealing with goose bumps and trying to breath. "its... ok... i think the ... phone works." Matt walked over the the phone and picked it up "nope its dead im gonna have to call someone out here tomorrow."
