Maddie stared at Sebastian to make sure he also saw the message. Her phone beeped again and again.
# - Where is the girl?! - Ally💖
# - Maybe because of the bad state of the glass we cannot see her on the picture. - Justin📖
# - I accept this explanation... - Connor🏈
Sebastian looked up from the phone raising an eyebrow at his little sister and tilted his head.
- Maddie, what are they talking about? - Maddie found hard to speak. She felt it in all of her nerves that Justin was wrong about the glass. They should see at least a silhouette or something, but the coffin was completely empty. When they checked it earlier, the glass covered it was just glass, not a special effect.
- We went to that old mansion today, where the haunted house was organized, you know. - Sebby nodded and waited patiently to his little sister to continue the story. Maddie looked at him from the corner or her eye and felt ashamed of what she was about to say.
- There was something in the end of one of the corridors that "called me".
- Called you... Like calling your name? - Sebby asked and Maddie shook her head.
- No just... Argh... I know how it sounds okay! But I couldn't move to other direction just down that corridor! The others came after me and we found a gorgeous old resting place. In a room that must've been an art gallery or a tea room many decades ago. There was that coffin, and inside we saw a woman who looked like she dies that moment. We thought it was just decoration and maybe it is but I don't know anymore! - As Maddie spoke her voice became shaky and she started to speak faster and faster due to nerves. She couldn't explain what happened and what they saw. Sebastian on the other hand seemed shocked and lost in his thoughts. He grabbed Maddie' s hands that were moving all around her while she spoke and looked into her eyes.
- Let's go there together tomorrow and check this out.
- No! I don't want to go back! - Maddie shook her head but Sebby spoke more sternly.
- We will go together tomorrow. You can invite your friends too. - that moment Maddie's phone beeped again.
# - Guys... I did something stupid. - Justin📖 - Maddie grabbed her phone and typed frantically.
# - What have you done?! - Maddie 📜 - the next message was a picture of the mansion and Maddie jumped up fron her bed grabbing her sweater.
- Whoa Madds... What's happening? - Sebastian asked. Maddie looked afraid but determined while she almost stumbled putting on her shoes.
- You wanted to go there. Let's go.
- Yeah but tomorrow! - Maddie showed Sebastian Justin's last message and he sighed.
- You guys will put me in the grave one day. - He got up and cracked his back putting on a painful face.
- Stop acting like an old man and let's go! - Sebby shrugged and headed to his room to get some warmer clothes on. Maddie in the meantime typed to the group chat.
# - Justin don't go in alone! We are on our way with Sebastian. - Maddie📜
# - I'll skip this one sorry! - Connor🏈
#- Me too... Guys sorry but I almost peed myself when I saw that the girl is missing. There's no money on Earth that would make me go there tonight! - Ally💖
# - I'll wait for you and Sebby then. See you in a bit Maddie! - Justin📖
# - Keep us posted guys! - Connor🏈
# - Okay! - Justin 📖.
With each message Maddie became more and more impatient. She hurried to Sebastian's room and at the door asked slightly annoyed.
- What takes you so long? - Sebby turned around with a bag in his hand.
- Just packed a few stuff. I'm ready. - Sebby put on his dark brown leather coat and a dark blue scarf. He followed Maddie outside quietly not to wake their parents up. Out he jumped into his car, an 1967 Chevrolet Impala. He grinned and pat the car door.
- Hop in! - Maddie walked to the passenger side and got into the car. Sebastian started the engine with a childish grin on his face and Maddie rolled her eyes.
- I can't believe that this is the first thing you bought from your salary. - Sebastian acted like his feeling were hurt.
- Don't know what you are talking about Madds. This little gorgeous is a classic!
- It is, but you only bought it because of Supernaturals.
- I wouldn't be so judgemental if I were you, or do you want me to tell Justin about that Hannah Montana PJ you still love? - Maddie's face turned white.
- Don't you dare! - After a short pause Maddie added.
- At least you didn't name your car Baby. - Sebby smiled keeping his eyes on the road.
- I'm not that tacky. - He pat the steering wheel.
- She is a Lady after all!
- Dear Lord take the wheel...
