Chapter 1 - The Time Of Betrayal

Once upon a time, there was an abandoned house named 'J-36' in a local society. There were many rumours scattered about that house. It was also said that even the cops couldn't ever unravel these mysteries. However, one day, Damon and Enzo, two renowned cops, decided to solve the mystery behind the House J-36. Damon and Enzo were tenderhearted yet strict.

After chatting with townspeople, they headed straight to the house at night. They heard the spine-chilling scream of a woman, which came from the house. They checked the main door, but it was obviously locked. Damon and Enzo shared a look, and it was now confirmed that something was wrong with that house. They unlocked the door with the help of tools, and as the door opened, there was absolute silence.

They stepped in; the house was dark and eerie. "Enzo, lets split. You move towards the right; I'd go towards the left.". As Damon was talking, a noise of wood cracking was heard. "Hey, listen to this,", Enzo said in a hushed tone. All of a sudden, the main door slammed shut.

The cops exchanged a look; they knew whatever it was, they were now in grave danger. They both went in their respected directions, Damon checked almost everything in the house, but nothing sparked his curiosit; everything was quite normal.

Damon went back towards the living room; the only strange thing was that he couldn't find Enzo anywhere. He was moving in the direction of kitchen when, out of a blue, someone stabbed Damon with a knife. Thankfully, he was wearing protective gear, so the knife didn't do much harm. Damon was left gobsmacked when he didn't find anyone when he turned to see the person who had stabbed him. He sprinted towards the kitchen and found Enzo. He was infuriated and give Enzo a mouthful, but Enzo's eyes shifted to the little stab wound peeking from underneath the bulletproof jacket, he quickly got the first aid kit from his bag and wrapped a bandage around Damon's wound. "I'm sorry, I really didn't know you'd get hurt," Enzo apologized. Both of them started searching for the woman together. Enzo spoke in a loud voice, "If you're in here, then reveal yourself.". They heard a door slam, and Damon saw a silhouette moving outside the kitchen.

Suddenly, Enzo starte running towards the stairs, which led to the basement. "Where are you going?" Damon shouted. Enzo didn't answer and vanished, which left Damon completely puzzled. He thought maybe Enzo wanted to see something and started making his way to another room, but the door was locked. He tried his best to open it, but it didn't budge. "Damn it!" Damon muttered. He ran downstairs into the basement and saw Enzo standing with his back towards him. "You were looking for the woman in the room towards the left. She's not there," Enzo said. Damon frowned as he slowly started to walk towards his partner. "How do you know?". Enzo turned and faced Damon, saying "Because I was in the room." Damon scoffed, "What are you talking about? There was no one in there." Enzo pointed at the small lift at the side of the basement and said, "It's a dumbwaiter, a lift that carries food for people in the house. It is connected to the room.". An idea sparked in Damon's mind: "You stay here! I'll go up on this lift. No matter what happens, quickly come after me.". Enzo nodded, and Damon went to the room upstairs through the dumbwaiter. To his surprise, the room was sparkly clean, and there were hundreds of weapons laid on the ground.

Damon was left speechless and started walking towards the weapons. "Illegeal export of weapons," he muttered under his breath. Suddenly someone pushed him towards the wall, and as he faced to see who it was, a 6-foot tall man with piercing blue eyes and black hair gripped his neck. Damon was trying desperately to loosen his hold, but it wasn't working. He was trying to call for Enzo, thinking about what was taking him so long. All of a sudden, the door to the room opened, and a shot was fired, which hit the guy's shoulder, and he left Damon.

Damon saw the man holding the gun and recognised him instantly, as he was the chief of police. "Sir! You're here? how? They are smuggling weapons!". The chief nodded and lowered the gun, and behind him, another officer had Enzo in handcuffs while the third officer ran and handcuffed the smuggler. Everything was crystal clear now; it was Enzo's doing, all of it.

Damon moved towards Enzo and spoke with a sharp voice, "What a game! This was your side business to make more money. You've betrayed us. I hope you're ashamed of yourself for doing these things being a cop...". Enzo looked down, and all of them moved out of the house. House J-36 is no longer abandoned and being used as an orphanage.
