JOHN we have been walking for John while now, are you
sure?
BILLY I think so, because judging by where I think it hit
the stairs it must’ve hit them and continued down these tracks
for John while.
JOHN alright then we will have to follow the tracks to
see where the ball went
PABLO I will come too even though this doesn’t feel very
safe
BILLY quit your worrying we will be fine nothing is going
to happen to us and this place has been abandoned for years,

PABLO will you shut up about your ball JOHN
BILLY I think your ball is up ahead JOHN, why don’t we
explore more of this place?
PABLO No, definitely not
BILLY why not PABLO it’s cool down here
PABLO It’s not, it’s creepy and I want to get out
JOHN What is that thing?
