A Phone Call to No Where chapter 7

A/N I am continuing this book, it is really good!

"C'mon!" Rose yelled and pulled Beth by the arm forcefully. Jay took off sprinting away, into complete darkness. "Please Beth!" The moon started flickering and the wind picked up to a gust.
Beth stood there staring ahead of her.
"But, what happened?" Beth looked down silently.
"Beth, forget about it!" Rose tugged Beth so hard Beth followed clumsily.
The night was the deepest mid-night blue with the temporary moon, white, above the gnary branches that reflected beneath the moonlight.
"Rose!" Rose slowed to jog but kept running hoping to find Jay.

"Beth!" Rose called frightened. "This isn't a smart idea! C'mon, we'll be safe!" Both girls were now standing ten yards apart.
"It's not about me, nor us, it's about a lady in that cave who needs our help. You know it Rose. Now I'm going back, you go find Jay."

Beth slung her head along the wall into the dim lighting room. Her eyes amazed her and she pulled her head back quickly and rubbed her eyes until she saw clearly.
Beth looked again. She silently observed the foreign figure.
"Nearly transparent figure? Not Rebecca, not Mort. Was it?" Beth flung her head back behind the wall. "Hades?"
