I examine the chain cuffs.

There are weakpoints as I thought.

I hit them against sharp points in the wall.

"What are you doing?"I hear the boys voice question.

My voice replies"Getting us free what do you think."

The cuff shatters.

I grab a knife from my pocket and shatter the other.

I illiminate the boys as well.

I help him to his feet.

The boys voice sighs

"The longer you're here the harder it is to move"

He tries to stand on his own but falls.

I put his arm around my neck.

"Fine,I'll help you"

We run out of the room.

The halls are quiet.

Like a graveyard.

We move quietly down the hall.

Something grabs my leg.

I look down.

It's a spirit in a cloak, Like us.

I stop.

Then look behind.

A being in a cloak is running after us

with a blade.

I try to get away.

A swift pain sweeps acrossed my back.

Blood breaks through the flesh.

I fall and the boy tumbles away.

"Damn" I think "I couldn't get away."

I scream "RUN!"

It's no use.

The boy is stabbed through the heart.

A Second passes my own heart is pierced

It's all over.
