Chapter 39: Inside the Warehouse

The two brothers were in mid-air, Mike grabbing on to Johnny as they made their way towards the roof. After a bit of a struggle, the two made it to the top. Johnny landed, and Mike fell onto the floor.


"Thanks, " Mike said.


"No problem, " Johnny replied, rubbing his neck. "Except, man, it was an effort."


"Well, maybe you should get super strength."


"And maybe you should get SlimFast."


Mike picked himself off the ground, and the brothers made their way to the door. Johnny opened the bag of supplies they had just bought and handed a flashlight to Mike. "Alright, let's have a look."


Johnny led the way, entering the warehouse and shining his flashlight into the darkness. It struck against a flight of stairs which the two cautiously walked down. A flight below, the concrete steps turned into metal ones and the two began to make their way onto a catwalk, Johnny still in the lead with Mike just a few steps behind. From the brothers' flashlights, two beams of light shone down below to the empty warehouse. Suddenly, Johnny froze. A third beam of light had started to shine.

  1. Oooh...cliff hanger. What will happen next week? Will the third beam of light be that of a friend or an enemy? Stay tuned!

  2. I'm just happy we finally got inside the stupid warehouse after about 7 weeks of the brothers arguing about how to get inside.
