    Chris turned to look at her after he examined behind them throughly. "I don't know maybe the cable car?" He said with a shrug of his shoulders he looked to he key she was holding in her hands. "Better hold onto to it may come in handy later." He said ready to leafe the room already.


    Lily urned on the power before looking around the room. "Hey Matt there is a flare gun over here." She sais before turning her attention to the radio in front of her. "Come on work." She mumbled to herself brow furrowed in frustration from the radio.

    "Maybe." Alex said in response as she placed the key into her pocket in case it was needed later. She was ready to leave the basement in general, but they hadn't exactly explored everything down there and it's where Sam could be.


    Matt retrieved the flare gun that was pointed out, placing it in one of his pockets before looking around the small area a little more in case there was anything else there that might be useful.

    Chris looked aorund the room some more then in the back he noticed a giant house of the sorts. "Check it out." He nodded over to what appeared to be a doll house it caught his interest since he had no idea why there would be a doll house in the basement of a ski lodge.


    Lily worked a bit longer fialing a few times before she got it to work. "Finally Jesus." She mu,bled then contacted the Ranger. "I am sorry to inform you but we can't send a helicopter up until the snow storm settles down." Lily nodded her head after her heard the message. "Alright thank you." She said before the radio topped working she flet nervous for some reason.

    Alex approached as Chris pointed it out. "Why would this be here...?" She murmured to herself before noticing the key slot at the top. Taking the key from her pocket as she decided to try it. It unlocked the top, so she pulled it open, pulling a book out. "This is Hannah's diary." She said to Chris as she stared down at the cover.


    Matt glanced outside as he noticed the lights at the bottom flicker on again, figuring a deer triggered it something. Though, his heart fell when he glanced over to see something trying to get through the door at their feet, giving up when they couldn't get it open.

    Chris looked to the doll house letting go of her hsnd to pull it open. "Oksy his is creepy." It was a replica of the prank that happened a year ago on this night.


    Lily hesrd the banging after the lights flickered she had a feelig it was a person. "Matt." Was all she said before the tower started to fall.

    Alex's gaze flickered over, heart instantly dropping. She hadn't been there herself, but she could only assume - especially when she saw the few that were likely supposed to represent her, Chris, and Josh in one of the rooms. Though she quickly stepped back as it would seem the one doll in the back came to life in a way.


    Matt's eyes widened quickly, heart dropping once he realized what was happening. At this rate, it would crash - this had to be the killer's doing, as he'd decide... He was quick to say Lily's name as it started to fall quicker, before giving a sudden jolt as it fell still just a moment, but would likely drop more soon.

    Chris jumped back when the doll turned it's hesd to look at them he jad no idea who the doll was supposed to be but frankly he didn't care because this was terrifying. He took Alex's hand again and pulled her away from it. "No nevermind we saw nothing." He continued to drag her away from the doll house feeling like his ehart was going to burst out of his chest.


    As the tower started to fall Lily was quick to dodge the falling pieces around her. When she thouht it was all over she let a sigh of relief but the quickly replaced by a small scream as she fell through one of the windows and onto a railing momentarily taking her breath away from impact. She watched as it tipped towards what appeared to be mines her body tipped over the edge as she made quick work of grabbing onto the ledge letting out another scream.

    Alex could feel her own heart pounding, not protesting as she was pulled along. Hesitating she'd instead move to pull open one of the doors with her free hand, taking a step forward when she was quick to instead jump and give a sound in surprise as something popped up again. This was terrible.


    Matt managed to grab onto something, keeping himself up. "Lily-!" He was quick to call as the tower fell the rest of the way, sinking into the mines, instantly worrying that she was gone as he began to instead climb around, trying not to get himself burnt in the process. "Damnit..." He cursed as he climbed up.

    Chris followed her as she opened the door a film started playing it was the film of the others pranking Hannah course the group excluded Josh ,himself ,Alex ,Beth ,and finally Lily. He had never known how the whole prank went down but seeing it happen made him feel so much more worse about it his hesrt ached for his friends who are tormented by this day.


    Lily held on swinging her legs to try and get up almost slippig so she stopped doing that. "Matt get out of here!" She yelled to him her hat falling of her head letting her brown hair freeing blow around. "Jump to safey I will be fine!" She yelled once more not wanting him to get hurt she had no idea if she was going to be okay or not but she didn't care he was more important.

    Alex was silent as she watched this, pressing her lips together. Even as she hadn't been there - this made her feel terrible, to know how the others must be feeling about all of this. Though she gave a quick movement in surprise and fear again as the video ended with Hannah and some sort of a jumpscare. She couldn't take much more of this.


    Matt leaned over the edge slightly, gaze catching on her. "Not till I know you're safe!" He called down, refusing to leave her there at the moment. To him, it was important that she got out of here safely, she could easily slip and fall in this position... Or the rest of the tower could collapse and send her down completely.

    Chris sat there for a bit before saying something. "I'm sorry Hannah and Beth they didn’t deserve what happened to them." He said he took Alex's hand again and most likely not the last time he would. "Come one lets go soeme where else." He spoke gently to her with a gentle tug of her hand as sign for them to leave.


    Lily felt her grip slipping but she didn't rhink it would matter since the tower was going to fall any way. "Matt it dosen't matter you jump I will come back soon okay!" She yelled to him looking down into the dark mines below her. She wondered if she would see the creatures again or maybe even Hannah or Beth. "I promise you I will mske it back alive!" She yelled wanting him to jump to safety already.

    Alex gave a nod after a couple moments, allowing him to lead her out. They really didn't deserve what happened to them... They deserved better, they both did. Switching her thoughts to something else; finding Sam. She really did hope nothing bad had happened to the blonde.


    "Just... just grab my hand!" Matt quickly said as he held his hand out, though would quickly jerk back when he felt the tower shift again and make a creaking noise, indicating it was about to slip some more.

    The further the two went into the basement the dark it got in there. He stopped when he saw blood on he ground leading to a door. "Alex look." He said pointing to the blood trail in front of them thinking it belonged to Sam his heart was still hammerig in his chest but now he really felt it thinking maybe Sam was desd behind that door.


    Lily didn't reach out for him any way she put a smile on her features to comfort him. "Matt I need you to jump to safety you need to tell the others a helicopter will come once he snow storm calms so please let his be my last wish if I am to die." She asked trying to keep he panic out of her vocie as she felt herself losing grip on the railing she thought about letting go to make him jump to safety.

    "You... you don't think it's Sam's, do you?" Alex was quick to ask as she swallowed a lump in her throat, really hoping it wasn't. She wanted Sam to be okay, after what happened to Josh she couldn't lose anyone else. She instead made her way to the door.


    Matt's eyes widened a split second, but when he felt it slipping, he'd make the last second to decision to jump after a quick apology toward her. He hit the other side with a grunt before quickly turning to look at her.

    Chris didn't answer and followed behind her before moving in front of her protectively. "Lets hope not." He mumbled before pushing open the door and looked around he place he saw dead pigs hanging up he looked away disgusted by it. "Oh god." He croaks looking forward instead to see a chair with something in it.


    Lily smiled glad he finally gave in. "I will be okay!" She yelled before feelig her world tilt as the whole thing crashed into the mines below with a loud scream of pure terror. When she hit he grounds of the mines below she cringed in pain glad none of her bones broke. "Well now I know what falling is like." She said turning over to push herself up off the ground.

    Alex instantly cringed at the sight, before her own gaze flickered to the chair, from the back, she could see the jacket Sam was wearing previously. "Sam...?" She murmured, stepping forward to turn the chair around and instantly took a step back in surprise. "It... It's a dummy..." She started, furrowing her eyebrows. "B-but... those are her clothes, aren't they?" She then questioned, heart dropping again.


    Matt quickly turned around. "LILY!" He called in fear, hoping for some sort of a response as he stood there, looking down for signs of her. He hoped that in some miracle, she was okay, not seeing how far the drop was or if she was crushed. "Please be okay..." He then muttered under his breath.

    Chris gaze flickered around the room. "Alex." Was all he got to say before getting knocked by the masked man who then turned to Alex to knock her out next.


    Lily looked around it was dark as hell down in the minds. "Ah sh!t it is dark down here." She mumbled squinting to try snd see better she looked up to see and fist sized beam of the moons lightt peaking through a opened slightly bigger then her hand she couldn't reach it it was to high from where she landed. "Get home Matt." She mumbled looking around some more she didn't see she lost hat but right now she really could care less about her.

    "Chris...!" Alex was quick to exclaim, eyes widening when her gaze landed on the killer, instantly taking a few steps back when she suddenly reached into her back pocket and shoved a pair of scissors into his shoulder. The only reason she didn't run was because Chris was there, she couldn't leave him behind.


    Matt frowned when he got no response, instead turning to try to either find a way out, or get to Lily. He had to know if she was okay.

    The person pulled the scissors out of his shoulder with a grunt. "You live and you learn." He said knocking her out in a way which would give her a black eyes later one.


    Lily looked around the place she found nothing useful she sighed heavily she could barely seeing but she kenw something was out here in the dark. "I know you are out there some where." She mumbled taking a step forward after bit she knew she had to get out fo here not onlu for herself but for he other.

    Alex hit the ground with a thud, as the punch was hard enough to knock her out, as her eye would definitely bruise before long.


    "Okay... it's best to stay calm." Matt murmured to himself as he walked, gaze flickering around as he swore he could hear something scream or screech off in the distance.
