It landed on top of me, its beady eyes piercing through my own. 'Is this it? Is this how I die?' I panicked trying to claw my way free but it was no use. It pinned my arms down to my side, its mouth coming closer and closer, it was going to eat me.

Aiden quickly got onto the roof and saw me and Ashlyn struggling, he quickly went over to Ashlyn to help her first, which is a given. The phantom had a change of mind and stood up grabbing my arm with it.

It slowly walked over to the edge of the room near the porch and held me over it, 'Yup this is definitely where I die.' The phantom dropped me, my hair rushed around me, time feeling like it had stopped.

But there was no impact, just arms around me, I opened my eyes that I didn't realized I closed to see Tyler holding onto me.

"I got you."

He let out a sigh of relief, my arms darted around his shoulders as I hugged him tightly, which he greatly returned.

"More are coming, we better quickly get inside."

I got down out of his arms and ran into the house with him. Tyler shut the door, holding the handle so the big wave of titans that rushed to the house couldn't get in.

"The- The phantoms are heading back towards the graveyard, and there's 17 bullets left now!"

Logan said oven the walkie talkie, he must have shot the phantom that was on top of Ashlyn, my state of shock blurred out the noise I didn't even realize.

"Me and Ben are in the first room to the right up the stairs, we found the key."

Taylor responded back to the group.

"Stay there, me and y/n are coming."

Tyler spoke into the walkie talkie and put it back into the holder. He looked at me with worry scattering around his face and grabbed my hand running up the stairs into the room Taylor and Ben were in.

"You hear that thumping and banging too, right?"

Taylors voice spoke from inside the room she said they were in,

"That's Ashlyn and Aiden, but they should hurry because we saw at least two phantoms outside the door when we left."

I told her as we barged into the room. Taylor quickly went over to the window and opened it exposing the night sky,

"Ashlyn? Aiden?? Guys?? Woah?!"

She said spotting them next to her on the roof.

"...We need help."

Aiden struggled to hold Ashlyn up with his bad ankle as her head hung low. I quickly ran over to the window and helped pull Ashlyn inside the room while Aiden climbed in after her,

"Guys, the phantoms are running in your direction! From what I can see, there's about 20 of them!"

Logan told us looking at the house from the graveyard.

"Lovely. We need to leave, immediately!"

Tyler told the group giving a hand to Aiden so he could climb is for properly.

"Here Ben, hand me the keys please. Ty, you should carry Ashlyn and Ben you carry Aiden. And since Ashlyn isn't in the condition to drive anymore, I-"

"I'll drive, I kinda know how to."

I said, grabbing the keys out of Taylor's hand. A loud crash was heard from downstairs startling the group.

"That came from down stairs..."

Ashlyn said holding onto Tyler's shoulders.

"Probably the phantoms that spotted me and y/n on the street, when she fell."
