Then, there were gone. Private went into the bathroom where he noticed something he didn't notice before. A key was sitting successivo to the bathtub. He started to walk in front of the bathtub to get to the key but a zombie threw itself out of the bathtub making him yelp and back away.

'Around the tub then...'

Private was thankful the zombie didn't sposta as he made his way around. He smiled and picked up the key. Then the zombie lunged at him, Private screamed and moved to doge it then slid out of the room and slammed the door shut. His eyes widened. A doll with red feathers and amber eyes was walking and thankfully didn't notice him. It giggled evilly once it pasted.

Private whimpered, "Why the heck is that doll...MOVING?! W-Was it part of the cruse too?"

Private went off to the cucina part of the room, and stared oddly at the zombie dog that was eating meat out of the fridge.

"Last time I checked, we didn't have those..." He shuddered then grabbed some oil off the counter.

He then noticed the rug trying to hide something but failing. Private moved it aside to see some kind of hidden door. He opened it but it was pitch black. Private lit up the lamp then went down. All there was some crates, a door, and a crack in the wall. He couldn't fit in there...But his pet bird could. Private raced to his room, the dog snarled at him on the way out.

"Here Snow!"

Snow, was a plain white bird with a blue beak, she flew over and landed on his shoulder.

"You Amore Blue too, right?"

Flashback

"SNOOOW!" Private shouted. "Where are you?" He looked around but his pet was nowhere to be found. "Your wing is hurt! Come on!" Snow suddenly flew out a window to outside where the younger was. "Snow!" The bird landed on his shoulder. "I was so worried! I couldn't tend to your wing with te flying around." Private stared at Snow's wing with surprise. The wound was completely gone.

"Huh. Weird."

"What a troublesome bird." Blue muttered while exiting out of the house.

"Big Brothah!" Private exclaimed.

Blue shook his head, "Keep an eye on that pet of yours. She made a mess out of the house."

"Sorry..." Private looked down then back up, "Did te find Snow Blue?"

"Mm hm. I think she might to reconsider learning how to fly correctly. I can't be always fixing her wing."

"Good thing Big Brothah's around, right Snow? Thank te Blue!" Private smiled brightly.

"She's a rightful member of the family just like us."

Private giggled.

"Let's go save Blue!"

He raced back to the cucina and went back to underground. Private gently placed the bird on the ground near the crack. Snow flew in and rushed back out with some lighter oil. To Private's surprise, Snow dropped it in his flippers then flew away from him.

'Oh well. Maybe she went back to my room.'

Private started toward the ladder but his lamp went out. He squeaked in fear.

"The light went out?!"

He repeatedly tried to make it light again. On his fifth try, it lit, but he didn't notice the female standing behind him.

Private spun around sensing someone but no one was there. "I guess...It was just the wind."

He sneaked toward the steel door again. Blood was the floor now, as if things couldn't be più creepy. That THING was still there. Then a great thought came to his mind. He could burn it! He filled the lighter with oil then threw some oil on the thing, it roared in response. Then he lit up the lighter and a secondo later. The area lit up with fire. The thing started screaming with pain.

"IT BURNS! IT BURNS! MAKE IT STOP!"

Private squeaked then ran in Blue's room. After a few minutes, he came back out, The thing was gone and the fuoco had calmed down. He picked up a wooden bucket that was sitting da the door. When he heaved it up, something rattled inside it. He reached in and took out a bottle...That had eyeballs in it.

"Eww...But I'll keep this..Just in case."

Private then finally, shoved the mystery door open. Ami was laying on her side, seemingly passed out.

"Ami!" He rushed over.

"Private..."

"You're hurt!"

Ami grunted, "I'm fine. te need to escape. Its dangerous here..."

Sighing, Private cut to the chase. "Where's Blue? I heard him scream."

"Blue? GHA! I have to save Blue!" Ami tried to get up but she just fell over again.

"You can't get up with that wound!"

"But..."

"AMI. What happened to Blue?"

"Blue is through that door...Kiki..He..."

Private stared shocked, wasn't Kiki dead? "Kiki? Ami!"

The mage didn't answer for she had fainted. Private looked toward the door Ami had gestued to. Razor was in front of it.

"You again..." Private groaned.

"It seems your brother is ahead.."

Private stared at Ami. "What Ami said...Isn't Kiki supposed to be dead...Please don't tell me the cruse plays a role in this..."

"The only way to get your risposte is to go ahead." Razor went through the door.

Private stared closer at Ami. "T..There's something under her wing..." He took out, "A key?" Private sighed then left the weird room. He turned to see a ghost staring at him.

"Uhh.."

It moved backwards. He followed it to Blue's room, to Blue's office and stopped at the door in the room.

"Is that where the key goes?" He fit the key into the door.
