Columbine Basement Tapes Novels & Stories

The office door groaned softly when I pushed it open, and I froze immediately, listening for movement from upstairs. Nothing.Just wind against the windows. The room smelled old, dusty paper and cedarwood trapped beneath years of cold winters. Moonlight spilled through the narrow windows beside the shelves, cutting pale silver across stacked boxes and forgotten files. I crouched beside the desk again, reopening the drawer. Inside were scattered photographs, hockey articles about Leo’s childhood tournaments, and beneath them, a row of VHS tapes bundled together with a faded elastic band. My pulse kicked harder. Every tape had dates written across the labels in black marker.

“Is this all?” Sabrina asked Shawn while looking at some photographs of Arnold and Dean together with a seemingly suspicious guy in sunglasses in a coffee shop just a few meters across to where the Turner organization was located. “Yeah, they're still investigating, though.” Shawn said, looking at Sabrina who seemed so caught up and occupied with what she's seeing. “How about these?” Sabrina asked, referring to the silver flash drive and the three tapes placed on Shawn's desk. “They came with the photographs.” Shawn answered, fixing his gaze back on the scattered papers and photographs placed on his desk.

, mom requested. "Okay I'll get to it", I said and texted Conrad and asked if he could come around, he seems to know how to handle these kind of situations pretty well. He said he'd be there. I went deep deep into the basement, they organized this place like a million times but it always gets dirty and stuffy in here I started checking around for picture albums and finally found them. Then I saw lots and lots of video tapes we made. I checked them out in the small tv there and they were working, wow since all this years

"But the violence... it’s too much." Andreas stared at me for a long time. It felt like he was looking right through my skin, searching for the secrets I had buried. Then, his eyes drifted down to my sleeve. I looked down too. There was a tiny smear of grey dust on my cuff—the same dust from the basement floor and that filthy laundry bin. My breath hitched. I slowly pulled my hand away and tucked it under the table, my heart hammering against my ribs. "The security feeds were glitchy this morning," Andreas said, his voice dropping to a low, dangerous hum. "The basement cameras skipped a few minutes around four a.m. Marco thinks it was the storm, but I don't believe in coincidences anymore. E

But as they stepped out of the circle of light, a sharp, rhythmic electronic pulsing sound began to echo from the ceiling columns. Vivian froze, her eyes darting upward. Embedded into every single structural pillar of the basement were small, synchronized electronic devices flashing a violent, rapid crimson. A digital countdown timer on the nearest unit was scrolling down rapidly. *00:45... 00:44... 00:43...* Julian hadn't just left them to be interrogated. The entire basement was a rigged tactical kill-box, wired with localized thermite explosives to erase every piece of evidence—including the Montgomery bloodline—the moment the extraction failed.

How can you trust some random phone call over me?” Desmond frowned. “You’re nervous, so calm down,” Paul offered him a drink. It was red wine. Desmond took a few sips. Just then, the projectors in the crowd stopped displaying the aisle and started displaying a particular video footage taken at one of Paine’s hospitals. It was the vlog of a man who secretly took a video of the basement where there were secret rooms, unlicensed refrigerators and more. He called these rooms the organ-harvesting chambers.

They smash into the glass display cabinets, the sound of shattering glass raining down onto the hardwood floor. I am panting. Sweat is dripping down the back of my neck. My hands are red and stinging, but I can't stop. Then, through the haze of destruction, I see it. Sitting behind the door, half-covered by a torn shirt, is the wooden box of tapes. I let out a ragged breath as I reach out with a trembling hand and brush the shirt away, staring down at the little plastic cassettes. The tapes from the night we met. The night of the drug incident.

Too clean. I knew better than to plug it into any of the Base’s terminals. But I had a burner — a wiped, off-the-grid mini-laptop I’d stolen from the second-floor training tech room months ago. I dug it out from behind the loose tile under my locker, flipped it open, and slid the drive in. The screen lit up. One folder. RE: RIVAL I clicked. Inside: three video files. One labeled “ENTRY,” another “SHADOW FILE,” and the last... “INHERITANCE.”

The man in the bio looked really calm so he probably couldn't have thought of such a vicious method, it must be Cain who pushed him to do it. "Ding." His phone rang again, showing a new message. It's a video sent by Logan. He hasn't opened it yet so he doesn't know what's in it. Did the brothers succeed? ——Mr. Anderson, we found this in Mr. Dodge’s computer.
