Looks Can Be Deceiving
As they pull into the driveway of their new home, they sit and stare at the two story white house thats infront of them. it was inhereited to Mr. Dawson from his father after his father passed away last week. He decided to take this opportunity to start a new life with his wife Michelle and 8 year old son Corey and 12 year old daughter Kelsey.

Weeks go by, life seems to be going great for him and his family. His kids have made wonderful friends, His new job is perfect, and his wife has finally finished making the new house look the way she wanted it. She even had her fenced in back yard, her kids had a their own pool and swingset. And she couldnt be more happier how life had changed. But while mom and dad were outside, Corey and Kelsey decided to explore their new house alot more, and went down to the basement. As they kept exploring they found a door behind a spot they could fit through on the back wall and decided to explore it.

As Dawson and Michelle came inside so Michelle could get dinner started, She saw her son standing at the doorway and he asked her " whats for dinner mommy?". She said " your favorite, fried chicken.". He smiled and ran off to go play. Her husband came into the kitchen and told her " im glad they are enjoying the summer, and the new house." She replies " im glad they are to honey. Dinner is almost ready." He then tells her " well I'll go get the kids ready for dinner"
He turned around and noticed Kelsey sitting at the table she tells him " im ready for dinner daddy, but Corey is still playing" looking confused he replied " ok sweetie, I'll go get him". As he went to get get their son his wife proceeded to get the plates set and fixed.

Dawson started heading upstairs as he hears Corey playing in his room, but as he approached the room he wasn't in there. Dawson now really gets confused. So he heads back to the kitchen. As he gets into the kitchen to ask if they seen Corey he was shocked when he saw Corey sitting with Michelle and his sister Kelsey. Michelle looks at him and says" everythink ok?, come sit and lets eat baby." As he walked to the table he replied " everything is fine. Must of stayed outside and got to hot that's all". She said ok. And they started eating.

As time goes by Dawson becomes more confused and couldn't understand why. Then one night as him and his wife laid down she starts to speak " baby, we seem to have a problem." He replies "and what's that baby." She answers him " ive been confused a lot lately and don't know why. And there's a smell coming from the basement and I can't find it." He explains , I know what you mean. I've been confused alot lately to. And I couldnt find it either. Ill call someone tomorrow baby."

The morning comes, and he awakens.
He tells his wife goodmorning and grabs his coffee and sits at the table. As the day continues he is outside fixing the lawnmower as he hears Kelsey playing not to far away. He gets up and heads inside to grabs something to drink. Having to pass Kelsey to get inside he sees her in the living room watching t.v.. as he was shocked be looked outside and she wasn't outside and Michelle leaving her room sees Corey walking into his room and she heads downstairs but sees him sitting in the living room watching t.v.. She was confused and went to explain to her husband and reminds him to call for that smell which gotten worse so he finds a number and calls after explaining his side.

Next day the crew came to inspect the house, The told the kids to go play outside. As the crew went through attic each room and closet. They made their way to the basement and the smell got worse. As Dawson and Michelle hear the kids playing they proceeded to help the crew and continued searching everywhere and still no luck. But one member managed to follow the smell to the back wall. As they began moving everything away it got worse. After a few minutes they finally got evrything moved. That's when another member spotted a hidden door that blended in with the wall. And with the smell as worse as it could possibly get. He finds a way to open it. And is horrified as he discovered a girl and little boy. After calling 911 and they have arrived with ems Michelle starts to realize she doesn't hear the kids so she went outside.

As ems manages to pull the children from the secret room. Dawson is in shock. As Michelle made it outside she yelled for the kids. But no answer. She runs back into the house to her husband, he meets her at the basement door and she explains "the kids are missing, I called them and no answer and they havnt returned." Dawson looking devastated starts to explain to her " I don't understand none of this. But the two kids pulled from the secret room are our kids" she breaks down crying as she replied , no! That's not possible they have been here the whole time until now" he tells her " i know they have been baby" but lets wait and hear what they day ".

As they waited a few weeks. They finally received a letter. They sat at the table and open it. And read it. It said COD was from Suffocation. Both Corey and Kelsey Weathers. As they continued reading they discovered the shocking truth. Both have been dead not long after moving in.

The End
