Author: TheUnknown_goat© WebNovel
Chapter 1: Chapter 1- Aquatic And Automatic:
The Building Exuded No Feelings Of Human Presence. The Hallways Seemed So Cold And Empty That It Made You Shiver. The Rooms Were Barren, There Was Not Even A Chair Or A Table. The Building Had No Purpose, Other Than The Faint Echo Of Birds Chirping.
The Air Was Stagnant, Devoid Of The Usual Sounds Within A School. For Some Reason, The Building Exuded A Feeling Of Sadness That Once Existed Within It. No Feelings Of Human Presence.
However, Alec And His Pals Decided To Stay Overnight In The School Due To The Club Being A More Spiritual And Ghostly Themed Club. The Club Was Centered Around Mainly Researching Abandoned Places And Apparent Ghostly Objects Like Ouija Board.
So Far They Made Zero Progress In Finding Actually Proof Of Ghosts Or Possessed Objects For That Matter. Howev This New Opportunity Might Finally Land Them Proof Of Ghosts And A Spot On The Newspaper.
The Group Was Called "The Spirit Research Club" As well Alec Actually Thought Of The Name Because He Was A Diehard Fan Of Watching Ghost Videos On TV (Most Of Them Were Usually Fake However He Didn't Care As He Loved To Watch Them For The Thrill.
Another Member Of The Group Was Timothy, With Short Green Hair And Brown Eyes He Was A Short Kid However He Was Best Friends With Alec And They Were Like Partners In Crime Almost. Another Member Was Hibari, Short Red Haired Girl With Crimson Eyes, She Was Outgoing And Happy Usually She Wasn't A Fan Of Ghosts Or Spirits However She Mainly Joined The Group To Get Closer To Alec Bit She Usually Doesn't Disclose That.
Lastly Was Tenka, The Long Purple Haired Girl With Lilac Purple Eyes Which Usually Had Eyebags, She's Was Usually Unsociable She Was More Believing About Ghosts As The Concept Of It Seems Interesting To Her However She Genuinely Wants To Actually See One For Real.
Alec Layed Down A Map Of A Location Known Simply As "Doug's Aquatic Theme Park" It Was An Abandoned Project By The CEO Of The Company Ryan Aiming To Take The Doug's Burger Barn Franchise To The Sea. However People Were Suggesting That Sounds Were Able To Be Heard From The Location, Sinister Sounds To Be Exact.
"So We Strike Tonight Right?" Alec Asked Making Sure Everybody Was Ready For The Mission Ahead However It Was Noticeable That Hibari Was Shaking With Fear As She Looked At The Floor.
"Uh Hibari? Is Everything Ok?" He Sighed Shaking His Head Hibari Then Noticed His Gaze And Frantically Shook Her Head With A Squeal.
"Uh No, No, No! Everything Is Amazing!" She Chuckled Nervously While Putting Her Left Thumb Up With Forced Smile. Tenka Of Course Wasn't Buying It.
"Hibari, Only Joined The Group Because She Had A Crush On Alec..." She Spoke In Monotone Tone Of Voice. To Which Hibari Responded By Placing Her Hand Over Tenkas Mouth.
"N-No She's Lying Ignore Her!" She Spoke With A Pleading Tone While The Two Boys Watch The Two With A Light Chuckle. "So Timothy You Brought The Camera?" Alec Asked As He Now Turned His Attention To Timothy.
"Uh Yeah Of Course Bud" He Nodded With A Firm Smile Clutching The Camera In His Hand. Alec Then Looked Back At All The Club Members And The Room Itself With A Smile, "Were All Finally Ready, To Finally Catch A Ghost Hopefully" He Spoke With Pride And Seriousness.
Hibari And Tenka Then Looked Towards Alec With A Nod Notifying Him That They Were Ready To Go. So The Group Set Off For The Ghost Hunt Of Doug's Aquatic Theme Park.
The Night Was Dark And Oppressive, Casting Its Shadow Over The World. The Darkness Seemed To Swallow The Air, And One Could Feel The Heaviness In The Air, As If The Darkness Had A Weight.
Sound Was Muffled In The Darkness, And It Was Hard To See Anything, With An Almost Tangible Feeling Of Something Waiting In The Shadows.
Yet Even In The Darkness And Fear, There Were Signs Of Beauty, As A Bright Moon Was Able To Make Its Way Through The Clouds And Illuminate The Darkness, Casting A Serene Glow Over The Night.
As They Traversed Through The Night They Headed Towards A Forest That Housed The Aquatic Theme Park. The Night Was However Punishing To Say The Least As The Cold Winds Relentlessly Battered Them However They Pushed.
As They Approached The Forest Was Eerily Quiet, A Sense Of A Looming Threat Was Present In The Air. Sounds Were Muffled, And Visibility Was Poor.
The Darkness Seemed To Swallow Everything, And Even The Distant Sound Of A Rustling Branch Caused A Sudden Burst Of Fear. The Trees Loomed Overhead, Casting Heavy Shadows Across The Forest Floor.
Even The Faintest Noise Made It Difficult To Tell Where The Sound Was Coming From, And Caused Hibaris Heart To Pound In Her Chest. However Alec Saw This And Held Her Hand With To Keep Her Safe, Which Caused Her To Blush Lightly However Alec Wasn't Paying Attention To Her Blushing As He Thought Any Normal Human Being Would Protect Their Friend.
As The Carried On Walking Through The Cold And Blackened Out Forest They Heard A Sudden Snap Of A Twig Which Caused The Group To Freeze. Timothy Quickly Took Out The Camera And Began Recording.
"Ooh... A Ghost Is Coming" Tenka Spoke In Her Usual Monotone Voice Which Made It Hard To Actually Tell If She Was Being Excited Or Sarcastic. However As The Snapping Of Twigs Got Closer And The Members Got More On Edge...
The Source Of The Sound Presented Itself, However It Was Just A Adolescent German Shepherd Which Made Everyone Take A Deep Breath Of Relief. However Timothy Quickly Rushed To The Pooch And Embraced It.
"Wait Timothy Is That You're Dog?" Alec Asked A Little Confused As Too Why A German Shepherd Suddenly Appeared Out Of Nowhere And Why Timothy Was Embracing It. "Oh Haha I Didn't Tell You, Sorry I Actually Called Him With My Dog Whistle" He Smirked With A Low Chuckle.
"Oh Alright... Hmm This Dog Could Be Useful Since Dogs Can See Ghosts What's His Name?" Alec Asked With Interest.
"His Name Is Shiba, He's Just The Most Wonderful Ball Of Energy Hehe" Timothy Giggled As The Dog Started Licking Him With Joy And Love.
"Well Let's Continue Our Journey Then" Alec Nodded As They Continued Their Journey To The Abandoned Aquatic Theme Park. "Aww No Ghost" Tenka Sighed In Her Monotone Voice.
The Group Now Continued There Journey Now Accompanied By Shiba The Dog Seemed To Be Excited For Some Reason As His Tail Kept Wagging Left And Right As It's Tongue Hanged Out, He Seemed To Be Brimming With Energy.
As Alec Kept Watching The Dog Suddenly Stopped In His Tracks Like It Was Trying To Tell The Group Something However As Alec Directed His Eyes Away From The Dog And Up Ahead, Then The Sight Of A Blue Fence Caught His Eye.
He This Eyes Focused More And He Started To Notice Many Abandoned Rollcoaster Rides, His Face Grew Instantly To A Smile As The Group Thn Rushed Towards Him Also With Smiles Painted Across Their Faces.
"Looks Like We're Here" Alec Took A Sigh Of Relief However He Noticed Something Peculiar It Was That The Gate Had Been Ripped Wide Open So Much That A Human Could Fit Through He Thought Maybe People Before Him Came Across This Place.
Fortunately This Meant Less Work For Alec In Terms Of Getting Inside The Abandoned Location.
As They Got Past The Fencing With Little To No Struggle, The Theme Park Was Like A Ghost Town, With Its Many Attractions Left In A State Of Decay. The Rides Stood In The Center Of The Park, Rusting And Dilapidated, A Testament To The Once Bustling Activity Here.
The Paint Was Flaking Off The Buildings, And Nature Had Begun To Take Back Over, With Vines Covering The Walls And Trees Growing Where Once There Was An Open Area. The Wind Blew Over The Empty Expanse Of The Park, Sending A Chill Down Your Spine And A Feeling Of Solitude, As If The Park Were Haunted By Its Past.
"Hmm Well We're Finally Here Right The Plan Is-" Before He Could Finish The Group Was Splitting Apart. Timothy Went With Tenka, The Latter In Fact Was Skipping Away Shiba Decided To Tail Them Since He Cared About His Owner.
"Tenka? I Thought We Were Staying In A Group?" He Sighed Rubbing His Forehead In Frustration. To Which Tenka Responded By Winking And Sticking Her Tongue Out Uttering The Word "Bleh!" With A Chuckle.
"Tch... Typical Tenka Well That's Just Leaves Us Two" Alec Smiled At Hibari, Which Was Actually Huddled Behind Alec To Begin With. When Hibari Noticed That They Were Alone She Squeaked With Shock
"Oh I Guess We Are... Heh, Well Let's Make The Most Of This Time I Guess" She Smiled Her Cheeks Were Still Beet Red But Alec Didn't Seem To Notice. The Two Decided To Take A Right As They Walked Through The Dead And Silent Theme Park.
As They Carried On Walking However The Aura Started Getting More And More Terrifying To Which Suddenly Hibari Screamed Loudly Causing Alecs Eyes To Widen As He Embraced Her.
"Is Everything Ok?" Alec Asked Confused And Terrified However As He Looked On He Found The Source Of What Scared Her It Was An Illustration Of Parks Many Attractions That Being The Shark Revenge Boat Ride.
However The Shark Was Drawn Monstrously With Its Teeth Jagged And Multiple Scars Across Its Face, It Could Probably Give A Kid A Heart Attack A Hundred Times Over. It Seems The Shark Was Designed To Act A Free Roaming Animatronic That Was Meant To Chase Customers As Stated By The Attractions Description Written On A Sign...
"Come Down And Enjoy A Frightful Ride With The Parks Most Terrifying Ride, The Shark Revenge Boat Ride... Get To The Safe Points And Survive Until The Clock Strikes Zero To Win! However Watch You're Six, Havoc The Shark Will Be Hot On You're Tail And Won't Back Down For Blood, Come Ride Today!"
"Don't Worry Hibari It's Only A Drawing, It Can't Hurt You" He Spoke In A Softer Voice While Patting Her Head, The Latter Then Looked Up With A Blush And A Bright Smile Happy That Alec Was Caring For Her.
"Thanks Alec, You're My Hero" She Thanked Him With A Smile On Her Red Rosy Cheeks, Which Even Caused Alec To Blush In Return. He However Shook His Head Later On And Shrugged It Off.
"Oh Haha, Really It's Nothing" He Smiled Before Carrying On Their Exploration Of The Abandoned Theme Park. Meanwhile, Timothy And Tenka Carried Exploring Too More So Playing Around Instead Of Actually Doing Research.
Tenka Spotted A Cardboard Cutout Of A Cute Turtle And It Seemed To Be One Of Those Attractions Were You Needed To Slot Your Head Through The Cutout In The Head Area For A Selfie.
"Hmm I Always Wanted To Try One Of These, Desu" She Spoke In Her Usual Monotone Voice As She Slotted Her Head Through She Seemed More Adorable Despite Her Always Depressed Looking Face.
Timothy Noticed This And Giggled Before Turning On His Camera And Snapping A Few Photos. "Haha You Look Funny Tenka" He Chuckled, Tenka Had A Light Blush Now Evident In Her Cheeks However This Was Unusual For Her Since She Rarely Expressed Emotions.
However, Shiba Was Sniffing The Ground At A Rapid Pace As If He Caught Onto Something As He Moved With Tremendous Speeds. Timothy Took Note Of This And Started To Follow The German Shepherd.
"Tenka Come On I Think Shiba Has Caught Onto Something" He Gestured Her To Follow Him, Tenka Merely Nodded And Decided To Follow With A Low Jog.
As The Three Ran Down Dirty Cobbled Path They Soon Bumped Into Alec And Hibari Again. Alec Sighed In Relief As He Saw The Three Again. "Oh I Guess We're Back Together Haha" He Sighed He Then Looked To The Right Noticing What Attraction They Were Next To It Was Titled "The Shark Revenge Boat Ride". Like The One From The Sign Before.
"Hmm Shiba Seems Eager To Go In There Maybe That's The Location Of The Ghost" Timothy Chuckled Before Walking Upstairs Into The Building Followed By The Others. As They All Entered It Was A Simple Inside Design With Just A Boat Stationary In The Water.
"Hmm" Alec Then Looked Towards A Sign Where It Mentioned That Apparently All Customers Have To Sit Down On The Boat And The Gates Will Open Leading To The Aqua Attraction.
The Group All Decided To Sit Down On The Motorboat, Hibari Got On With A Wobble However As She Quickly Clutched Onto Alec's Back For Safety, Alec Eyes Widened When She This His Warmth In His Body Merely Increasing.
The Gate Soon Opened As The Boat Seemed To Have An Autopilot As It Started Up And Glided Across The Water. Splashing The Group With A Low Amount Of Water However The Water Seemed Clean Like Water You'd See In A Pool.
Shiba Seemed To Have Most Fun As It Reared Up It's Head And Stuck It Tongue With It's Eyes Closed. Timothy Knew That Shiba Only Did This When He Was At His Most Energetic Side. The Gang Merely Smiled As They Were Taken Across The Beautiful Clear Water.
The Lights Around The Large Attraction Turning On Illuminating The Water Beautifully. The Attraction Seemed To Be A Large Circular Pool Which Had Three Docking Sites Allowing People To Get Off At Any Time. The Boats All Seemed To Be Able To Use Autopilot Too. This Attraction Seemed Very Advanced.
However As They Glided Across The Peaceful And Tranquil Sea, Tenka Seemed To Notice What Seemed To Be An Human Arm On The Water But She Merely Ignored It. She Didn't Wanna Ruin This Peaceful.
Alec Then Turned His Head To The Front Of The Motorboat As He Then Noticed What Seemed To Be A Large Black Fin Moving Towards Them. "Uh Guys..." He Paused As The Others Noticed It Too.
"What's That?" He Gulped As His Eyes Widended, "It Seems To Be A Shark Probably Part Of The Attraction" Tenka Explained Remembering The Many Signs Featuring This Attraction Which Usually Had A Shark Illustration On It, Alec Seemed To Remember It Too.
However Gang Would Soon Find Out What It Truly Was, The Creature Rose It's Head Through The Sea As It's Snout Sliced Apart The Waves. As It Beared It's Misaligned Teeth For Display, This Was A Large Great White Shark Animatronic With Monstrous Look And Navy Blue Colour Mixed With White.
"Oh Shi-" Alec Quickly Rushed To The Steering Wheel And Twisted It To The Left Steering The Group Away From Danger As The Boat Just Barely Scratched The Shark. The Latter Seemed Hungry And Pissed Off That It's Meal Didn't Stay Still As It Circled Back It's Jaws Wide Open, It's Terrifying Maw On Display.
Alec Looked Back As The Shark Was Now Hot On Their Tails, It Seemed Eager And Hungry For Flesh And It Sliced Apart The Water With It's Massive Mass. However Alec Noticed That The Fuel Icon On The Boat Was Now Red Explaining That It Was Low On Fuel, The Latter However Spotted Another Docking Site.
So He Turned Full Throttled The Boat At It's Maximum. Meanwhile, Timothy Was Clutching Onto The Side Of The Boat In Pure Dread, Tenka Was Sat Down With Her Legs Crossed In An Emotionless State As If She Knew There Fates Already.
Surprisingly, Hibari Was Sat Next To Alec With A Positive And Believing Expression Knowing That Alec Would Be Able To Get Them Out Of This Mess. However It Was Becoming Obvious That Boat Was Becoming Overcrowded And That If They Didn't Cut Down On The Amount Of People On The Boat They Would Certainly Get Themselves All Killed.
Shiba Stayed Silent As He Stared At The Oncoming Sea Monster, He Then Took A Quick Glance At The Group As His Tail Stopped Wagging Before He Did A Loud Whine That Echoed Through The Sky Causing Alec To Look Behind Him In Confusion.
Before Suddenly, The Dog Leapt At The Animatronic Shark Knocking It Down Into The Sea However Submerging Himself Down Along With It.
"NOOO!!!" Timothy Yelled As He Rushed Towards The End of The Boat Trying To Go After It However Hibari Restrained Him. "It's Too Late... Timothy Stop! Shiba Wanted This He Wanted To Save Us!" She Yelled Trying To Make Him Snap Out Of It. Timothy Then Fell On His Knees In Utter Tears, His Eyes Were Now Like Waterfalls, Alec Watched Him In Shock Of What Unwound A Second Ago.
But Alec Knew He Couldn't Stop, Now With Shiba Off The Boat, They Could Move Faster. As They Headed For The Docking Station. Meanwhile Shiba Rose To The Surface Of The Water As He Saw Them Ride Away. He Howled In Joy For Them As He Saw His Master Get Away Safely.
Shiba Then Turned Around Seeing The Shark Heading Towards Him With It's Jaws Open, The Dog Momentarily Closed His Eyes Before Remembering All His Memories Of Timothy From When He Was A Pup To An Adolescent.
Suddenly The Shark Teared The Top Half Of The Dogs Body With Zero Difficulty As Blood Covered The Water, Staining The Shark Causing It To Only Look More Terrifying As A Single Leg Floated Back To The Surface.
However As The Group Thought They Were Safe Inside, The Nightmare Was Still Looming Outside As The Shark Circled Back It Rammed Straight Into The Back Gate Causing The Entire Docking Station To Shake. The Members Inside Held Onto The Boat For Dear Life As They Felt The True Strength Of This Mechanical Nightmare.
"Dammit This Shark Never Gives Up We Need To Devise A Plan Before He Breaks The Gate" Alec Exclaimed With A Finger On His Chin In Deep Thought. The Other Members However Were Clueless Since They Were Never In This Situation Before.
Alec However Took The Initiative To Look Around The Area They Were Hiding In He Spotted Another Boat And A Fuel Can. "Hmm..." He Started To Piece Together A Plan To Get Everyone Out.
"Alright Everyone I've Got A Plan" He Nodded As The Others All Looked At Him With Interest And Intrigue. Timothy Was Still Torn After Losing His Dog However He Knew That If His Dog Saw Him In This State It Would Hurt Him Too So He Decided To Listen In On Alecs Plan.
However Before Alec Could Continue Timothy Rushed At Him Grabbing His Collar, "It's You're Fault Alec....If We Just Didn't Come Here Shiba Wouldn't Have Died!" He Yelled Alec Tried To Refute But Was Yet Again Interrupted.
"You're Worse Than That Shark! Maybe We Should Throw You Off Next!" He Yelled So Much That Alec Could Feel The Heat Of His Anger From Up Close. However Tenka Came In Patted Timothy's Shoulder Causing Him To Move Back.
"It's Not Worth It Timothy, Shiba Did What He Had To Because He Wanted To Save Us" She Explained In A Softer Than Usual Tone, Timothy Calmed Down At The Explanation And Tested on Her Shoulder Seemingly Out Of Stamina Because Of All The Yelling.
"Right, Let Me Carry On My Plan Is To Refuel Our Current Motorboat However We'll Need A Distraction So In Motorboat Number Two We Need Someone To Distract The Shark Away From Us, So I Wanna Volunteer Myself To Do This Mission I May Not Come Out A Live But Knowing That Youre All Gonna Live Is More Than Enough And Besides I Wont Be Forgotten Anyway" He Explained.
Nevertheless Hibari Looked On In Distress She Didn't Wanna Lose Someone Dear To Her She Wanted To Speak Up However The Words Were Caught In Her Throat. Surprisingly Though Tenka Decided To Speak Up To Alec.
"No... I'll Do It!" Tenka Argued In Her Usual Monotone Voice Which Shocked Timothy And Tenka Took That Into Consideration, Merely Winking At Him. "Don't Worry I Promise You Timothy I'll Come Back Safely" She Spoke To Him In A Softer Tone Comforting Him Almost Instantly.
Tenka Knew Alec Had A Positive Outlook On Life Which Was The Opposite Of Hers, She Didn't Value Life As Her Parents Always Thought She Was Weird And They Never Respected Her. This Being A Stark Contrast To Alec, She Knew He Valued Life So She Took That Into Rumination And Would Rather Have Him Survive.
"Alright Tenka Will Go On Boat Two And The Rest Will Go On Boat One" Alec Took A Deep Breath And Had A Positive Outlook On The Results Of This Plan. Hibari Was A Little Relieved That Andrew Will Walk Out Alive From This However She Had A Bad Feeling About Tenka Survival Rate But She Hoped That Tenka Would Push Through.
After Five Minutes, The Plan Was In Full Swing As They Sat Down The Gates Opened Instantly. This Alerted The Mechanical Shark So Tenka Moved Out Quickly At Full Speed. That Was The Signal That They Could Move.
Alec Full Throttled The Motor Boat And Is It Paced Around The Sea. The Shark Now However Was Hot Tenkas Tail And She Noticed This But She Didn't Care. She Attempted Multiple Rough Turns.
As She Attempted Multiple Rough Turns, Knocking The Shark Off Course Multiple Times And Even Confusing It. The Shark Was Getting Pissed With Each Turn However.
Tenka Then Looked Back As The Shark Began Chomping Aggressively Like Woodcutter. It's Fangs Brimming In The Sunlight, The Beast Was Now Close As It's Teeth Grazed The Back Of Boat Making A Screeching Sound.
When She Heard This Sound And Noticed The Shark Closing In, The Latter Looked To The Other Boat. She Saw That They Had Gotten So Close To The Third Docking Station. She Smiled Happily Which Wasn't Something She'd Ever Do. This Experience Even When Facing Death This Was The Most Fun She Had In All Her Life.
As The Shark Teared Apart The Motor Causing The Boat To Crash Into The Water, She Had A Rush Of Memories Of Everyone Alec, Hibari And Especially Timothy. She Then Shed A Single Tear As She Fell Into The Water.
As Rose Back To The Surface She Knew Saw The Shark Circling Back And Heading Straight For Her. She Calmly Closed Her Eyes As She Turned To The Other Boat, Speaking With Her Last Monotone Voice...
"I Love You...."
She Whispered Before The Mechanical Beast Clamped Down It's Jaws Ending Her Future As It Thrashed Her About In The Sea As Blood Spilled Into The Sea Creating An Almost Large Blood Stain On The Surface. She Was Now Gone, As A Single Beret Covered In Blood Floated Back Up To The Surface....
Timothy Saw This And Looked At The Teared Apart Boat With Rage He Then Noticed The Sharks Fin Moving In Closer. He Then Grabbed The Harpoon Gun That Lay Beside The Steering Wheel.
Hibari Looked In Shock As She Tried To Stop Him However It Was No Use, Alec Didn't Bat An Eye As He Knew This Is What Timothy Wanted. The Sharks Head Then Leaped Out Of The Sea As Timothy Fired Into It's Eye, However It Was Pointless As The Shark Crunched Down Onto His Arm.
Timothy Smiled With Unadulterated Joy As The Shark Pulled Him Down Under The Water. Blood Spilled Festered Covering The Seas Surface Once More. Alec Merely Teared Up As They Reached The Gates Of The Last Docking Station.
However The Shark This Time Came From The Front Causing Alec To Trip Over Onto Hibari As The Two Were Met Face To Face With The Beast, It Was Now Pulling The Boat Down As It Landed Its Body Firmly On The Boat.
It Started Aggressively Thrashing It's Head From Right And Left In Doing So However It Caught A Helium Tank In It's Mouth. Alec Saw The Opportunity And Remember Of A Second Harpoon Gun. He Quickly Paced And Grabbed It Firmly.
As Hibari Panted Heavily In Fear, Scared Of Losing Another Friend. Alec Then Pointed The Weapon Straight At The Helium Tank As He Prepared To Fire He Had One More Thing To Say...
"You Killed So Many People... Now Die You Heartless Bastard!"
He Yelled As He Pressed Down On The Trigger Launching The Harpoon As It Penetrated The Helium Tank, Blowing It Up With A Large Thud After The Explosion Was Done. It Blew Back Alec As It Was Set Off However It Didn't Do Any Severe Damage.
Now What Remains Of The Shark Was Nothing But A Headless Beast With Oil Dripping Out Of It. The Monster Was Now Unable To Cause Havoc Anymore.
"I Did It..." Alec Took A Sigh Of Relief As He Looked Up Towards Now A Teary Hibari With A Smile.
They Wouldn't Forget This Day However They
Were Glad That It Was Over....
