What the Hughes' called a "shed" was more like a small cabin, complete with a mezzanine; you could easily fit the Campbells' living room in there and still have room for a small kitchen. There was a workbench with a variety of tools circling an old chainsaw -a McCulloch S44- in an almost ritualistic way, a bunch of rusty lockers and filing cabinets, a large power generator with a couple of gas cans next to it way in the back, and an assortment of carboard boxes, wooden crates and furniture forgotten by time itself scattered all over the place; a strong smell of grease, rust and dry rot permeated the air.
The girls propped up the ladder against the mezzanine floor and paused to take a breath, when a rustling sound coming from somewhere up above startled them both.
"What was that...?" Stephanie looked to the loft.
"I don't know. Probably, like, a rat or some junk..." Amber shrugged.
