Saturday came, and it is after 3:00pm, so Chris picks up Trenti from his house.
"I'm still not sure I can go through with this," Trenti said getting into the car.
"You can do it Trenti, just think of this as saving yourself and don't loose hope," he said.
"I thought I gave that up when the old man died," he said.
When they got there, Chris unlocks the basement's door with a sledge hammer.
"How did you do that?" Trenti asked.
"Handy man experience," he said.
"Oh."
After Chris gotten the door opened, Trenti led the way inside through the basement in the back way where Mr. Baker is buried. The dirt on the ground is as soft as flour. The dirt piles up, and when Chris's shovel hit the ground, he shovels something that feels soft.
Trenti feels sick to his stomach, and it is his own emotions churning up inside. "It feels like he didn't put Mr. Baker in this hole deep, I feel something," Chris said.
They both starts to drop on their knees and started digging. They both finally saw a black sweater as they dig that looks like Mr. Baker's body. Chris pulls out a knife and cuts the garbage bags wrapped around Mr. Baker. They are on to something now that looks like a body. "We dont have to take the body out right now, I just want to see what we are dealing with," Chris said.
"Oh God," Trenti said agitatedly.
"Calm down dude, we will get through this," he said, now cutting through the bed sheets to get underneath. "I see something, I got it, come on, lets grab him to look for marks or something," he said.
"Oh Ganash help us," Trenti said taking the body out of there.
"You guys sure wrapped him up in a lot of blankets," he said.
"It was only one, it can't be more," Trenti said.
"This is some thick stuff dude. I can't really see now, I need a light," he said.
Trenti walks to the wall and turns on the light switch on the other side of the basement. He walks back and they both shine their flash lights on the body in the hole, and stares at what they are seeing.
"He's not in here, where is he?" He asked shockingly.
"You right, he's not. What you two doing here?" Trenti and Chris turns around and sees Rob standing by the door entrance.
"Rob? What the? What are you doing here?"
"I knew you two would be here today because I saw you two talking yesterday after school. You both are so dead now, and Trenti I'm going to kill you first," Rob threatened.
