Courtney's Cult

[traveler19]

Courtney couldn't believe what she was hearing. Tonight she would finally be accepted. Tonight she would become one of them. After she passed their test. They were the "witch" cult of her small town and she wanted nothing more than to join them. She needed meaning to her life and she refused to conform. To her they were freedom. They were the most attractive and mysterious girls of her town. Tonight she would have what they have.
When Courtney had arrived home from class that day her door was unlocked. She entered to find two of the witch girls sitting in her livingroom. There were three glasses of water on the table. Both of the girls were wearing matching black miniskirts with nylons. Each one wore a black t shirt with their cult symbol on it. Courtney wasn't quite as dark as they were. She was wearing skinny jeans with a tight purple t shirt and high heels. Her long dark brown hair was straight today.
"Oh...I wasn't expecting company." Courtney said nervously.
"We decided to surprise you." One of them smirked. "We have decided that you are worthy of joining us. You just have to pass one test."
"Oh?" Courtney knew she wouldn't get in for free so she was expecting this.
"The abandoned insane asylum out side of town has no security. You're going to spend the night there by yourself."
Courtney stared in horror.
"Nervous?" Asked the girl on the right. "Why don't you take a drink?"
Courtney grabbed the glass of water closest to her and took a drink. Then she sat down next to the girls.
"If you can last one night then you're in. If you can't...well too bad."
"How am I going to get into that place? It's locked up."
"Oh you won't be getting in. We're going to put you in." Said one of the girls with a mischevious smile.
"What do you mean?" Courtney wasn't sure what they meant and she was getting a little lightheaded. She dismissed it as nerves. Neither of the girls answered her. They just stared at her. All of the sudden her eyes felt heavy. Her vision got blurry. She looked down at the glass and realized that she had been drugged.
"Wait...no I changed...my mind." She managed to mumble.
"Too late for that sweetheart. You just relax now. You'll need your rest." Said one of the girls. The other one got up and sat on Courtney's lap just to make sure she wouldn't get up.
"Please..."
"Shhhhh. Sleep now. Soon you'll be a sister." Cooed the girl.
Courtney could feel a warm hand gently stroking the side of her face. Her eyes wouldn't open. Soft lips on her cheek was the last thing she felt.
Courtney opened her eyes and was startled. She saw nothing. Only blackness. She could feel a cold cement floor underneath of her. She sat up and realized she was in a pitch black room. She tried to stand up and tripped over something. She reached down and could feel that it was a flashlight. She turned it on and discovered the was in a bathroom inside the asylum. The place smelled of rot and mold. She had to get out of there. She found the nearest door and walked out into a long hallway. The place was a dump. Papers and old medical equipment littered the floors. Most of the windows were either broken or boarded up. All the doors along the hall were shut. All but one and there was a dim light comming from this one.
The girls of the cult sat in a car outside the asylum. They had set up a few surprises for her inside. One of them being Drake. Drake was a good friend of the cult and went to the same college Courtney did. In fact, he was the one who discovered her and sparked her interest in joining the cult. Drake did not look like the cult type. He had been captain of the football team in high school and had a very athletic build. The girls told Drake he was to stalk Courtney inside the asylum and once 6 am came around he was to attack.
Courtney peeked into the dimly lighted room and gasped. Inside was an unconsious blonde tied to a chair. She had a strip of duct tape over her mouth. She was wearing a denim skirt and a tan longsleeve shirt. Her blonde hair was straight and came down to her shoulders. Courtney cautiously walked up to her and tapped on her shoulder. The girl's head shot straight up causing Courtney to stumble backwards in surprise.
"MMMMPH MMMMPH!" Cried the girl. Courtney quickly untied her and took the tape off the girl's mouth. The girl had to lean against her as she was still groggy. Courntey wasn't sure why this girl was here. She didn't look at all the type to be part of the cult.
"My name is Courtney. Are you with the cult too?"
"Wha-....cult?" The girl still looked a little groggy. "I was in my dorm. I heard a knock on my door and when I answered it I was grabbed and that's all I remember."
Courtney was actually glad. She was glad to have someone there with her. Once the girl woke up a little she told Courtney her name was Naomi. They decided to try and find their way out. The asylum was big but it couldn't be that big. They wandered the halls for what seemed like an hour. Finally they came to another dimly lighted room. They entered to find a table beside a closet door. On the table was a note. Courtney decided to read that while Naomi checked out the rest of the hallway.
Dearest Courtney,
We are glad to let you know that you have been accepted into our cult. You're new friend however will have to go now.
Sincerely,
Your new sisters.
Courtney had just finished the last line when she heard a scream. She raced out into the hall to see Naomi in the arms of a very strong looking young man. He was holding a white cloth over her nose and mouth and dragging her backwards. Her legs were kicking as he dragged her around the corner. Courtney was frozen in fear. This wasn't what she wanted anymore.
Outside in the car the girls watched Drake carrying the sleeping blonde towards the car.
"Drake did you use real chloroform on Naomi? You were supposed to save that for Courtney."
"Naomi told me to. She said it would make it look more real and scare Courtney even more. Don't worry. There's enough left."
Courtney was terrified but she knew she had to keep moving. She decided to back track and try to find a broken window she could climb out of although she didn't know which floor she was on. As she was looking she noticed a staircase leading down. She climbed down three flights of stairs and found herself in what looked to be the lobby. On the floor was a lantern with another note beside it. She slowly appproached the lantern and picked up the note.
Hello again sister,
Don't worry about Naomi. She is one of us. We used her to scare you. If you're reading this then that means you still have your wits about you and have passed our test. We will be taking you to our secret place to perform your ceremony. Unfortunatly you can't know where that is yet so for now you must sleep.
Sincerly,
Your sisters.
Courtney just finished the last line when a pair of strong arms wrapped around her waist. Before she could scream a cloth was put over her face. She squirmed but this man was too strong. The sweet smelling fumes made her dizzy instantly. She tried to hold her breath but her squirming made her take even deeper breaths than usual. After a few seconds she felt like she was melting into the man's arms. The light from the lantern seemed to drifft further and further away. Then blackness.
