The black phone

Not just dreams

School was tough, I had a lot of bullies but robin stuck up for me and sometimes so did finney shaw, robins best friend.
I was in assembly, probably the 5th one this week. Kids have gone missing and everyone is on edge, I don't blame the cause I know I'd be shitting it if my kid went missing.

Later robin and I were walking home
Robin- I have to go do something... alone

I was unsure of leaving him but he insisted so I made my way home. Later that night robin still wasn't back. My mom called the cops and they issued a missing persons report.

For the next 3 days people searched for him. Everyone treated me as if I was broken or if they said the wrong thing I'd snap.

Day 4 rolled around. I woke up to the sun shining through my window. At the end of my bed stood a short figure. My breath hitched as I stared at it. I pinched myself trying to convince myself that it was a dream

Robin- y/n ... mom needs you

Tears formed in my eyes as I heard his voice.

Y/n - robin ?

It's a dream, it has to be. As I looked closer I noticed cuts and bruises on his skin. His once combed hair was now a mess and his skin was paler than usual
Robin- don't cry, it's not your fault y/n. I couldn't stand up for myself and ... he got me

Y/n- no, tell me this is a joke. Tell me where to find you, anything at all! Robin tell me who took you!

My cries were cut off by my mother
Mom- ... finney shaw is missing

I stared at her blankly. She assumed I was processing the information she had just given me and left .

Robin- you couldn't save me y/n , no one could, but you could help finney. I don't remember much but I know that the house the grabber locked me in had a wire fence.

With that he disappeared and I jumped out of bed, got dressed ran, grabbed my bike and rode all around the neighbourhood in search of any houses with wire gates

Y/n- I'm coming robin don't worry

I stopped at the final house for today as I was cycling all day and it was now 2am. House 7741.

I threw down my bike and ran up to the door frantically knocking on it. A man, much taller and much more muscular than me opened the door. I told him I was looking for my brother and showed him a photo of robin.

He winced but then returned to his previously stone cold face
Grabber- would you like to see a magic trick

Curiosity got the better of me, he led me into his home. He shook a can in his hand and I realised he was moving towards me cornering me. I turned to run but he grabbed my hair yanking me back causing me to scream which gave him the opportunity to spray whatever was in that can in my mouth
