“don’t! you have to pull it back this way!” Damon swung palm around the bar and gripped it tightly, he twisted forward and then yanked back. The solid door popped open and dust filled the dark room. “Ugh! I could have done that” winced Jacob. Jacob was Damon good, no best friend. Although sometimes he did not want to admit it, they were sometimes in separable. They were literally like twins, un related/un identical twins! “okay yeah, you COULD have, but didn’t. So next time, I’ll just do the hard work for step one. As to avoid your brilliance.” Jacob pulled his arm back and clenched his fingers into a fist, his lips curled into a smirk as he hung his fist out into the air. “you don’t want to mess with this buddy.”

The two young guys laughed at each other and at themselves. Jacob and Damon had been friends since they were babies. Their mothers were best of friends, and both did not have much for fathers. They were each others male roles, but not having solid father figures served well for both of them. It gave them the opportunity to learn compassion, and understanding from their mothers.

It had been years since they had seen or heard of any activity going on over here. As soon as they heard rumor that animals, and mysterious people had been spotted on the grounds they knew it was time for an annual break in. The place was creepy, and very old. It was still standing, but it had been there for more years than documented. There were rumors that very powerful people once lived here, and that one day an extremely powerful man would return to the area and regain his castle. Damon and Jacob wanted to be there when it happened.

“Did you hear that?” Jacob twisted around, he paused and shook his head back and forth answering no. He stood still, listening. Damon crept forward, his voice was in a whisper, “I think someone is there… I hear.. something… shhh…” He pushed the door open and peaked around the corner to see if anyone was there…
