Tunnel

By Ela Emiroglu

“What’s up, my loyal adventurers? It’s your boy MrAdventure here!” said Kyle with glee in his eyes looking directly at the camera that sat on his hand. “And today I’m here with MrsAdveture!” said Kyle pivoting the camera at his soon-to-be wife. “Hi guys!” said Jenny or as she was known on the internet “MrsAdventure”. “So my dear followers in today’s incredible, insane, and interesting vlog, me and MrsAdventure will be going down Australia’s deepest tunnel! ” Kyle tried to market the idea to his followers but for the last few months his views had been in a downfall, he thought if he and his fiancee did something crazy, that it would dig them out of the hole they were in. “Hey, Kyle…” said Jenny with a sort of cowardly tone. “Are you sure this is safe? I mean it looks sort of dangerous.” Kyle put down the camera and let out an angry sigh “Well, it’s not THE safest option but anything for the views, right honey?” Kyle said looking for some type of reassurance from Jenny. Jenny just let out a small chuckle and didn’t say anything. The two then approached the tunnel. Kyle was the first to go into the tunnel enter its depths as Jenny followed in his steps. It was dark in there, you couldn’t see anything, slimy, smelly, and just gave off a very funny feeling to the two. Kyle turned on the camera with slight fear. His brain was telling him that this was going a bit too far but his heart just wanted to do anything for the views. He decided to follow his heart. “Alright guys, so we’re in the tunnel now, and we’re just gonna walk until we find something cool. Keep watching.” And they walked ventured on for what felt like an eternity but there was nothing in the slightest. Kyle sighed with disappointment until he heard a sound. Almost like a whisper, creeping up, getting louder… “Kyle, uh honey do you hear that noise?” said Jenny, her voice trembling. “Yes, and it’s awesome, right? I need to film it right away.” Kyle turned the camera back on. “My loyal adventurers, we are starting to hear some creepy noises so we’re going to keep exploring until we know where it’s coming from. Right MrsAdventure?” Kyle said while turning around to find film his fiancee. “Huh that’s weird I swear she was behind me a minute ago.” said Kyle mumbling. From a distance, you could hear Jenny’s scream. A loud, squeaky, and terrified one at that “Run Kyle run! Escape before it catches you” said Jenny’s voice. It? Thought Kyle what’s it? Kyle didn’t think much of it and just wanted to find his fiancee he turned around and started walking back to the entrance of the tunnel. Until… he felt someone or something grab him… by the neck. Two missing reports, four worried parents, sixpolice searches around the area. But no hope…
