Horrorprompts 8 Passageway
Lucy hung back. She didn't want to go any further.

"What are you afraid of?"

She
pointed ahead of them at the dark passageway. This is where her world
always went dark. She'd never been able to go beyond this point in her
nightmares. And now to find out that this house, this passageway
actually existed had her creeped out to say the least.

"Lucy, you have nothing to fear. I've been here with you the whole way. Im not going to leave you now. "

"Promise?"

"Yes, I promise."

Taking
Charles hand and a deep breath they stepped into the unknown darkness.
Not sure what they would find they moved forward one step at a time. A
breeze rustled her hair , there was a dampness in the air.

"Oh my god," muttered Charles as they stared out into the decrepit graveyard. "How in the hell did we get here?"

Gravestones
littered the dark green landscape in cased by a wrought-iron fencing
barely standing it was so old. In the distance there was movement but
Charles couldn't make it out. He swung around but the house was gone.
There was no passageway to go back through. He felt her hand slip from
his grasp just as his mind was losing its grip on reality.

"Luc...,"
the words died in his throat as he watched the woman he loved enter the
skeleton embrace of a dark robed figure. Charles crumpled to his
knees, tears falling down his face. He knew in that moment that he'd
never see his beloved Lucy again.
