the light went on and then they found theirselves tied to the chair
"now lets get down to business"Roseline said and immediately her father started burning
"no!!!!!"Mira shouted
...
"is anything the problem?"Her mother said as she rushed into her room to meet the panting Mira
"Nothing mum,its just a dream"She said as she looked round the room
"anyways a friend is here to meet you"
"who?"
"errmmm I think she said Lizzy .Yes lizzy greens"her mother said and immediately her eyes widened in shock
"what are you doing here"Mira asked as she opened the door
"is it a crime to visit a friend?"Lizzy said with a smile
"can I come in?"lizzy said as she stared at the door
"yes sure"Mira said as she let her enter
"Same arrangement, nothing has changed "Lizzy said a little bit loud
"what did you say?"Mira asked
"I said nice house"Lizzy said with a smile
"let's go swimming"
"You have a pool?"Lizzy asked surprised
"yeah ,since we got nothing to do and you came unannounced then the pool is the best option"Mira said
"yeah your right"
.....
"Do you know how to swim?"Mira asked as they got to the pool
"yes "
"do you?"Lizzy asked back
"yes and that's why the pool is here"
"do your late sister know how to swim?
"nah....I tried teaching her but she wont learn and one day we found her dead in this very pool and rumors had it that she committed suicide
"do you think she did?"
"maybe...we don't get along too well"
"it doesn't look like a suicide...it was a murder. I'm I right mira"Lizzy asked with little change in her voice as she stared daggers at Mira who felt uncomfortable
"Its enough...let's focus on us"Mira said as
she jumped into the pool
"You had that dream right?"Lizzy said after a long silence shocking the hell out of Mira
"what are you talking about?"Mira asked with a shaky voice
"this"Lizzy said as her head made a 360 turn and when it came back to its position it was Roseline
"Ahhhhhh!"Mira shouted like she has seen a ghost and then her mum ran into the scene only to meet the shock of her life.Standing infront of her was Roseline
"Rose?"She called in shock
"hello step mother"Roseline said as her head darted to her
. ....
"what's going on here"her stepmom asked in shock
"you are in chains step mother"Roseline said with an evil grin
"I thought you were dead"Her step mum said
"of course I am but how do you expect me to die such a painful and heart broken death while the murder goes unpunished"Roseline said with anger as stared at Mira who was still in the pool trying to understand what was going on
"dont you dare call my daughter a murder"Her step mother shouted while roseline laughed
"baby mira,your friend will be here in a minute"Roeline said and it was then she remembered that her dream became real but it took a different form,her dad was not in it
"here she comes"Roseline said and just like she was being controlled Sonia came into the scene
"let's get down to business"Roseline said with a smile
"pls dont do this to her....she did nothing"Mira said in tears as she watched Sonia being tortured
"who says I'm doing it because of me,I'm doing this because of her"Roseline said as she pointed at her self
"she killed Lizzy and you think I will let her go?..You lie sis"Roseline said as she burst out in laughter
"but...."Mira wanted to say
"shuuuu...keep calm sis and watch
"Are you ready to talk or you want your fingers to be chopped off?"Roseline said
"I dont know what you are saying"Sonia said in a convincing tone
"then let's get it chopped"Roseline said as she placed her hands at the age of the swimming pool and used the knife nobody knew she was with all this while to cut off her middle finger
"ahhhhh!"Sonia screemed in pain as she watched the cut off finger dance a little before it stayed motionless
"are you ready to talk?"Roseline asked and she nodded
"we go in five,four,three,two,one and action"Roseline said like they were shooting a horror movie and then Sonia started speaking
Being satisfied with the view and the dangling of some body parts from each and every one of them, Roseline decided to end everything. She made Mira kill each and everyone of them and then made Mira drown
"I cant breathe...pls forgive me"Mira said under the water and after struggling for a while ,she gave up
A Year Later

"honey are you sure you want to live here?"Michaela asked her little daughter and she nodded
"we will take this house"She said to the house agent
"Are you sure madam cos this house has a lot"

"who is there"
"lets play Hide and seek, I'll count to ten and then you hide and I find you"The voice said again this time revealing a girl in the pool
"I'm counting.1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 and 10.Got you"the girl said reveling her scary face scaring thr hell out of Sophia
"Ahhhhhhh!!!"sophia shouted and every thing went blank
