I exit my car and stare at a brightly colored building, Rainbow letters reading Stormer's world. A place I was familiar with as a kid. The animatronics names engraved in my mind as I resight them again and again. "Stormer, Sparky, Lightning, and snips," I step into a pizzeria, The pizzeria I will work at for the next 5 days. But not as a cook, no, but as a nightguard. A nightguard with nobody else. The pizzeria was dimlited and had a strange, faded pizza smell.
"Strange, ain't it?" My manager said, obviously noticing the temptation of throwing myself into the foam pit, and lay there all night.
"You could say that," I replied trying to look professional, hiding the childish need to explore every corner of this place and find out what was really in the employee-only room.
"This is where you will be staying for the next 5 days. A magical wonderland for people of all ages." My manager said with a slight grin, but the grin was fake, obviously fake.
"It doesn't look so 'magical' now," I said trying to brighten the mood like the flickering lights that barely illuminated the stage of the animatronics.
"Yeah, It's a little spooky at night, but you best get used to it cause this atmosphere," The manager took a deep breath and continued "Will be your new normal," The manager caught a glimpse of my daydreaming, staring at the animatronics. "Ah, The animatronics, the moneymakers, the stupidly expensive robots that just move from a pivot in their torso," The manager said with a wave of slight anger in his voice, as if he despised them.
"T-They look so creepy in that lighting," I said. It was true, they were extremely creepy in the dull, flickering light, and every time the light flickered on and off, the metal would reflect it into my eyes. "Are they turned off?"
"No, They are gonna kill you later and this is all a damn trap," The manager said.
"Wha-" I felt a wave of fear overcome me, crashing down and knocking me back. Of course, I actually was just standing completely still barely breathing.
"I'm kidding!" The manager said as if I was suddenly blessed by a holy light. "They won't kill you, they do walk around at night though. We need to let them so they don't lock up overnight and break on stage. The last time that happened the----, Nevermind. Anything else before we continue?" The manager said with another faked grin.
"No, just take me to my room," I said. I wasn't meaning to be rude but I had the urge to be all alone, Have this pizzeria all to myself.
"Your room? Boy, you are greedy, you don't have a room stupid. Your gonna move around, you know have exercise, We don't need you locking up too!" The manager said ticked off about my sudden urgency to leave, to be alone.
The manager stomped his foot on the soft, padded floor of the play area, and stormed off toward the door. Great I thought as I watched my manager slam and lock the door, I already have a bad reputation with my manager. I walked toward the animatronics and looked at them, and then looked up to the side of them. There was a camera. A camera with a red blinking light. I walked up to the camera and the red light stopped. "Weird," I said, then realizing I was talking to myself, proceeded to sit down next to the animatronics, legs dangling off the edge of the stage. I glanced down at my watch. The number was blinking a dull red light. "12 am," I said. I was not looking forward to tonight. 6 hours of complete boredom. Nothing to do. Why did I pick this damn job?
Two hours later, and I'm pacing up and down a blue stripe beside the foam pit. Constantly trying to think of something to do. "There is nothing, NOTHING, to do in this stupid dump," I said as I picked up a foam cube a respectively hurled it across the pit, easily clearing the edge of it, and it landed in front of the employees only door. "Of course!" I exclaimed in excitement. I sprinted across the edge of the foam pit and leaped onto the small platform at the end of the pit. It split off two ways for children to get out of the pit and back to the main dining area. And there in the middle of these split paths was the door, the letter illuminated themselves in the reflection of the flickering lights. You could make out the three animatronics on the stage. Wait I thought to myself, isn't there four animatronics? I spun around and sure enough, there was only three animatronics on stage. Was there a break-in? There couldn't have been I didn't hear a thing. I rushed over and checked around for any signs. It looked like Sparky was gone. Sparky was a lighthearted, fun-loving, energetic wolf pup. She was always like a sidekick to Stormer, they respected each other greatly, and in my desperation, I came up with the 'greatest' idea ever. I turned to stormer and in a polite voice asked "do you know where your friend sparky is?" I stood there for a moment and of course, nobody responded it was a robot after all. I knew I had to find sparky and immediately scanned the surrounding area. "Didn't the manual say something about a flashlight ready for me to use at the front desk?" I sprinted to the desk and sure enough, there was a gray, shiny, brand new flashlight. I picked it up and flipped the switch and turned around. There stand in front of me was a white-furred, pink ear and pink-tailed, 7-foot machine. It looked over me like a hawk looking down at a mouse. I stumbled back and the robot followed. "S-S-Sparky?" I said, stumbling on my words out of shock. "How did you get over here?" Sparky leaned into my face and their face split open, revealing a face full of wires and two, hot pink eyes, glowing in the light of my flashlight, which was on the ground due to me dropping it out of fear. I screamed and everything around me turned black.
"Next time, Don't come running into my armsssssssssss," A high pitched voice said and I felt my surroundings fade away and I fell backwards, but I never hit the ground.
"Um, sir are you okay?" A voice rang out.
"W-Where am I?" I asked, my voice dry.
"Um, I'm your manager you just fell over," The voice said again as I opened my eyes. My manager was standing over me with a smile across his face. "You screamed and fell over. Is anything wrong?" The manager asked still looming over me.
"No It's nothing," I said getting to my feet. Strange I thought as I looked around.
"Well I am gonna leave, Enjoy your first night!" The manager said with a chuckle as he left. It felt off. Just yesterday this guy hated my guts and now he's laughing at me and joking around? I looked around and my eyes immediately landed on the stage.
"Sparky?" I said, my voice shaking out of fear. I looked at my watch. The day seemed to have reset itself. "Well this is my chance to check out the employee-only room," I said still keeping an eye on the stage, moving backward, and eventually tripped into the foam pit. I crawled across the pit like a spider and pulled myself up at the end. I was once again facing the door. I grabbed the rounded, silver, doorknob and twisted it. I heard a small click signifying the door was open and pulled it open. I peaked my head inside but saw nothing. It was pitch black inside and I knew I wasn't going in by myself at night in the dark after what happened last night. I scanned the area of which I could see and found a switch. I flipped it but nothing happened. "Great, all that build-up for nothing." I slammed the door and slumped down beside it. I glanced back at the stage. Everyone was present and still very shiny. I looked at the front desk and made my way to the flashlight. Bt the flashlight was on the floor. Very strange I thought. It's probably just the wind blowing it off the desk or something I said trying to convince myself that the animatronics didn't actually come to life. I looked back at the stage and sparky was moving off the stage. "Well they are allowed to move at night so that's no problem," I thought to myself keeping a steady pace toward the exit door, just in case I need to escape. I peered around the corner where the arcade was located but nothing was there. Strange. This whole place is very strange. I looked back at my watch and it was 12 A.M. again. "This night is gonna be over quick!" I said sarcasticly as I walked back over to the stage where sparky was roaming in front of it. "Hello, sparky!" I said Energy renewed. I walked to the register with a bounce in my step and peered up. Above the counter was a small airshaft that had just enough room for someone to fit inside. And it looked as if it leads to somewhere. Somewhere that could be important. I sprawled onto the countertop and stood up. I reached my arms up and made contact with the metal. It was cold and seemed to be out of service. I tried to pry it off but no luck. "I wonder what time it is?" I said as I glanced up at my watch, again reading 12 A.M. in the red blinking lights. How is it still 12 A.M. I wondered as I sat behind the counter, putting my arms around my knees and pulling them toward my chest. "I guess I will take a nap for now," I said standing up and closing the door to the back counter, Making sure to lock it. I laid down, shut my eyes which were getting heavy and I knew I wasn't opening them again till my rest was over, and dozed off.
I shot up, I must have overslept, I feel like I have slept for 7 hours. "Oh no, Oh no, Oh no," I said to myself as I peeked up scanning the area, but nothing was different. The animatronics were all moving around, eyes glowing like lasers scanning the surrounding area. I ducked back down so they wouldn't see me and turned on my watch which still read 12 A.M. "HOW!?" I screamed, then instantly regretted it. The sound of shuffling feet scraped against the padded floors, making a terrible screeching noise. I peeked up and sure enough, there was Sparky heading my way, Her hot pink ears shot up in curiosity, her tail wagging, but not in a happy way, more like a sinister eerie way. I popped my head back down as the mocking yips and yaps of the pink pup drew closer with every breath. "Crap," I crawled across the floor, the dust clinging to my nightguard clothes. Then I had an idea. The vent is my only way out of here, I thought but instantly realized that they wouldn't budge before, why would they now. I got up on my knees still ducked behind the counter out of view of the robot. I frantically ransacked all the cabinets in the little room, as the pair of glowing pink eyes started to bang on the door. Suddenly I found it. A metal cylinder leading up to a piece of plastic. A screwdriver. I got up and moved to the counter and stood up. There was nothing between me and the robot as Sparky could easily grab my feet. I heard the sound of her feet tearing up the padding on the floor come near as I unscrewed the first screw. I moved onto the next screw and with my heart in my mouth basically tore it out. There was one more screw but I had no time so I pryed it off with all my strength and looked down. Big mistake. Sparky swung her arm toward my legs, tripping me off the counter and landing head first on the padded floor. I was still safe here so I hurled my newly removed duct at the animatronic, causing her to stumble back into the foam pit. I popped onto the counter and pulled myself into the airshaft, and crawled deeper into the dark space. I was finally safe, for now. "I am so quitting after this," I said and glanced at my watch reading 12:32 A.M. "Bring it on,"
I flew through those vents, wondering what was at the end, and if the animatronics would follow me. I saw a dim light off in the distance. I crawled onwards toward it, excited about what was to be found. As I drew nearer I felt a breeze blowing past my shoulders. I thought that was odd until the wind started to pick up. I put my hands out to block the air from blowing into my eyes. The air was hot and was heating up the metal. "This is a heater," I said as I tried to stand up. Big mistake. I hear a noise of metal tearing apart from right under me as I fell through the duct. I fell landing on a mattress. Odd. Why would a mattress be here in a pizzeria? I got up off the mattress and looked around. It was very dark inside, and my only thought in mind was getting back in the air vent. I spotted a switch a flipped it, revealing a huge room. At first, it looked so pretty but then it really settled in. The purple walls were peeling off and the stench was unbearable. There were mattresses everywhere and a door was at the end of the room. I scanned the area in complete shock spotting a sign reading Sammys Mattress World! "Seems like a nice place. Why was this place shut down?" I wondered as I explored every corner of this shop. I spotted an air vent connecting to the first and started to stack mattresses on top of each other to reach it. I stacked enough mattresses to reach it but spotted a paper. I reached over and it was just a newspaper. It was rugged and old, wasted away with time. The Times New Roman font enlarged to take up most of the front page. The date reading 1956. "This is as old as much as it is useless," I said rolling it p to toss it away, but I saw something. I opened it up and read it allowed. "SAMMY'S MATTRESS WORLD SHUT DOWN AFTER SAFETY AND SANITATION CONCERNS, Sammy's Mattress World located on 1948 Baker Av. filing for bankruptcy after multiple charges of missing children and dozens of people getting sick and complaining of a smell that reminded them of rotting dead animals. Quote, Ms. Harlen mother of two "This place smells like a factory of rotting meat to attract a bunch of flies," The owner of the business claims to know nothing about this issue and is working on the problem now." I stopped in shock and flipped to the next page. "SAMMY'S WORLD CO. CEO ARRESTED FOR 7 CASES OF MURDER, The co. CEO of Sammy's Mattress World arrested and charged for 7 cases of child murder. The murderer, Jackson Mclain, plead guilty to charges claiming he was quote "Out of his mind," and "Not in control," and has been sentenced to death." I sat there in shock as I stumbled back, pocketing the newspaper and staring toward the door at the end of the room. I stood up, shaking, and ran toward the door. I turned the handle which was rusty and old and opened it. It was covered up by the wallpaper of pizza from the Stormers World I should be in right now. I rushed back over to the mattress stack I created and took out the screwdriver that I had also pocketed in case I needed it later on. Good thinking on my part. I unscrewed the duct and hopped in, and continued to crawl toward the light, avoiding the gaping hole which was letting the hot air out. I arrived at the light which was covered up by another duct. The light looked like it was trapped in a cage and I was there to free it. I pushed it open and observed the interior. I dropped down and landed on a table. I had made it to the kitchen of Stormers World. "Weird," I thought, "why would they build around the mattress store?" I scanned the kitchen noticing a door at one end to my right which leads to the arcade and a door to my left that I didn't recognize. I went over to the left door and peered in. It was pitch black and had no floor. "Strange I thought to myself as I made my way to the arcade door. When I was in between the left door and the vent I came out of noticed a metal scraping against metal noise. It was very faint and if you dropped a pen it would cover the noise altogether, but it was unmistakable. I decided to once again peer into the dark vent and saw a pair of hot pink eyes staring back at me about 50 feet deep into the vent. Note that the vent system is 300 feet across and Stormers World is massive, So Sparky must have been trying to be as stealthy as possible to get to me. Sparky started rushing toward me, easily avoiding the hole in the vent, and was approaching too fast for me to react. In my life or death situation, I made a dead sprint to the left door because If I went for the right I wouldn't make it alive. I opened the door and glanced back for a moment, and at that moment saw my life flash before my eyes. I saw those pink eyes right up in my face, Sparkys body was disproportionate and looked so strange, her neck was around 3 feet long and shooting at me and her legs were 5 feet apart. One arm was higher on her chest than the other and the other was much shorter. I blacked out but my momentum shot me back through the door and had me falling down this black pit that I didn't know where the bottom was, as I notice my vision blur, I reach my arm up and whisper "H-e-l-p..." and my world disintegrated before my eyes.
I shot up confused about what was happening. "H-Hello?" I called out not knowing where I was or how I got there. I looked around, observing the state I was in. It was so dark and musty, it reeked of a horrible smell, kinda smelled like mothballs that were puked on by a rotting zombie baby. I thought really hard about where I was, and then it clicked, I had fallen through that open door and Sparky had tried to kill me. "I must have hit my head on the way down," I said clutching my head, then retracting my hand from my head as it was sorta warm. Well, the warm sensation I was feeling was actually the blood from my head almost drenching my whole hand. I sat there in shock, due to never having an actual bad injury before this was a new occurrence for me, and was adapting to this surreal experience.
"A-a-aH, A-a-a Ne-nEw V-v-Vis-viSToR," A voice said from behind me.
"Who are you!?" I said shooting upwards and facing the thing, which was only a shadow. It didn't take long for me to recognize the figure. Its face was dismantled in several places and had gapping wholes where face-plates should be. Wires were just hanging from where the creature's arm should be but their other arm was still intact. The body of the black shadow was withered and broken in several places, and one of its legs' frame was completely gone. It was definitely in disrepair, even its voicebox was extremely old and whiny. It was an animatronic, but how, and where were they? I backed away from it as it came into my little oasis of light that illuminated the spot where I had landed. It had a white face, teeth were quite sharp and shiny and their body was a whitish-gray mess, and to top it all off, a nice green and white swirly party hat with a yellow puff on the top. "W-what do you want?"
"N-N-nO n-N-ne-nEeD t-tO fe- fEAr M-mE, Fr-FrieNd," The bot said as a very broken smile crossed its face, but strangely it was a nice smile, a heartwarming, caring smile. It was so nice to see this animatronic in such pain and suffering want to make such a nice impression, and so I trusted it a little more and drew closer. "W-W-w-What's yOur N-n-nAme F-f-Friend?"
"I'm Markus, and you?" I asked with a slight smile.
"I-I-I Do-don'T K-knOw Fr-Friend, I-I'm Ve-veRy s-soRry T-t-to D-dis-DiSAPoint Yo-yoU F-Friend," I felt a strange sympathy for the creature as it spoke and spoke the truth. Suddenly before I could ensure that it was fine, it fell apart in front of me, letting out a screech. "H-HELP M-M-M..." It couldn't finish its sentence as it died right there. I ran to its side and picked up the pieces, dragging them to the center of the light. I looked down at my watch and the blinking numbers read 1:15 A.M. I scanned the area with no hope of finding anything. My goal had changed again. From surviving to escaping, and now to help this creature. I couldn't find anything and I put my hands in my pockets, stumped. and then I felt a soft object in one pocket and a cold object in the other. My screwdriver and newspaper! I thought as I pulled them out and examined the tools I had at hand. I knew the screwdriver would help reassemble the bot but what about the newspaper? I looked through the pages, flipping through and scanning each and every page, and as the pages drew thin so did my hope. I then stumbled across a build-your-own Lycan and an image depicting an animatronic that looked similar to the one that was disassembled beside me. I examined the paper and thought it was worth a shot as I grasped my screwdriver's handle.
"Wow that took forever," I said as I admired my work situated right in front of me. All I need is a voice box and then I can turn him on! I thought excited to bring the robot back from the dead. "It looks as if the voice box was destroyed when everything fell apart, where in the world will I find another??" I said as I scanned again. "I suppose I can venture deeper into these dark rooms," I said, shaking in fright. The rooms looked endless and looked like nobody had been down here in decades. I ventured into the darkness one step at a time, after a few steps I would feel around and look around for any sign of light or something of interest. I was only around one hundred steps in when I spotted a light to the left of me. I sprinted towards it with thinking and found myself in a little cabin. The surroundings were cozy. there was a bed that was blue with blue blankets and blue pillows, windows with blue curtains, and a blue sky outside. The sky was fake though as it was peeling away. There was a carpet that was believe it or not blue and a blue door. The light didn't even flicker which was odd. It smelled like the sea breeze, and I sat down on the bed and looked in the cabinets under the bed that slide out. There was one set of blue clothes and a lump in the shirt. I picked it up and under it was a voice box, an actual voice box! "I jumped up and down in excitement as I rushed out of there and toward the beacon of light. But there was something wrong, very very wrong. The animatronic was standing there but behind it, there was a shadow. And that's when I saw it.
two
hot
pink
eyes
"WHAT?!" I screamed out as the pink eyes darted toward me like two pink bullets. I didn't know what to do but I needed to help that animatronic and I would do anything to fix it, after all, it might help me out of here. I focused on the shadowy blur charging toward me at full speed and waited. It drew nearer and nearer and I clenched my hand into a fist. I drew it behind me and as the pink eyes were around three feet from my face I swung a punch. A swift uppercut if you will. Sparky was caught off guard and sprawled backward. Sparky quickly got to its feet and charged again, arms out in front of her. I dodged to the side of her and she skirted to a complete stop in a matter of seconds. I took this chance and kicked the inside of her knee. Sparky hit the ground hard and scrambled to her feet once again.
"You can't run forever," She said as her eyes changed from hot pink to a bright red. She grabbed a pole that held the ceiling up and started to climb it, her head spinning 180 degrees to face me at all times. I took my chance and ran for the animatronic, and snatched my screwdriver. I saw the red eyes glowing in the dark and charged, and threw my screwdriver, taking a literal shot in the dark, and hoped I had hit my mark. Then I heard it, metal on metal contact, and the sound of metal being punctured, two sounds I was very familiar with.
"YES!" I shouted with excitement as I instantly sprinted toward the light. The glowing eyes were no more when I looked back and I felt overwhelming joy, a feeling I missed as I have not felt it for a while, and I had reached my powered-off friend. "Time to get you fixed up," I said as I placed the voice box in the correct place. "There we go!"
"Hi, Friend you fixed me!" Lycan said in excitement, "My voice is fixed!"
"Yep!" I said, very proud of what I accomplished.
"Um, Friend?" Lycan shook as he asked
"Yes?" I said curiously about what he was so visibly worried about.
"Whos your other friend behind you? Lycan asked, voice shaking.
"Who?" I ask very confused about what Lycan meant.
"The pink guy behind you silly!" He said chuckling.
"Oh no..." I said as I turned around slowly "How are you alive? I just impaled you!"
"Oh my bad," She said sarcastically. "I didn't know I was a roof now," She said chuckling lightly
"What?" Then it hit me. The roof was metal too, so I must have hit the roof. Sparky then drew her hand from behind her back revealing the screwdriver and threw it at me. It landed right on my knee.
"That's how you hit your mark!" she said laughing up a storm.
"But not how you pay attention," A voice said from behind Sparky. Sparky spun around to face whomever this creature was.
"Wh-," But Sparky never finished her sentence and instead stopped moving. Sparks flew out from her chest and she fell over lifeless. There standing over her body was Lycan himself, and in his hand was a fork.
"Your welcome!" Said Lycan before I could even speak, and he made his way towards me holding his hand out. "You're lucky your alive!" He said with a smile. "If it wasn't for you knight in shining armo-,"
"HEY!!?" I screamed. We both fell over laughing.
"Has the target been eliminated?"
"N-No sir"
"I can't believe you didn't get them, they were set up perfectly, I'll give you one last shot!"
"SIR YES SIR!"
I looked down at my watch, it read 2:26, but I didn't care, I was having fun, but boy was that gonna end, and it only took 5 minutes…
A chill ran down my spine, "Hey Lycan?" I asked
"Yeah?"
"Can you take me to the surface?" I asked as nice as I could
"Sure!" Lycan replied a smile across his face
4 minutes later we were in a dark corner of the massive room. It seemed like it was 500 feet across.
"One sec!" Lycan said turning around and flipping a switch. The lights shot on revealing the source of the rotten smell. Bodies. Lots of dead bodies. "Ok ready?" Lycan asked before drawing a shiny object from behind his back. A knife.
"What are you doing Lycan?" I asked in shock. "What are you doing with that?"
"You really are stupid, did you really think there was nice animatronics?! Well quick note bud, THERE ARN'T. Sparky come here stop faking it's dumb."
"Ok fineeee," Sparky got up off the ground.
"Can I come out nowwwww?" A voice said from a room beside me which door was closed.
"Fine you can," Lycan scolded
"Finally, Lightning was taking up so much room!" One voice said as two unmistakable animatronics emerged from the room.
"Like you can talk, fatty," The other animatronic responded to the first remark and was clearly offended.
"Can't we all just be friends?" Another voice said emerging from above me. I was so confused about what was happening.
"No stupid redhead," Another voice said emerging from the pile of bodies.
I scanned the area and realized they were all here. Stormer, Blue eyes blue tail blue ears. Snips, Red eyes red tail read ears. Lightning, Light blue eyes Light blue tail Light blue ears. Sparky, Hot pink eyes pink tails pink ears. and Lycan who is a mixture. There was a sixth animatronic who was grey and was a wolf, his eye was slashed out, the inside of his ears we red and his eyes were emerald green. "What's happening Lycan?"
"You really think I'm still your friend?? HAHAHAHHA! no, I'm not, you got tricked, we trapped you, YOU LOSE." Lycan said. I was shocked and fell to my knees. I won't give up though, I'm stronger than that, I built Lycan, I know his weaknesses, the others I don't know.
"Let me kill it please," Stormer said staring at me his eyes examining me and his mouth-watering. "I'ma kill it!"
"NO ME!" Said Lightning pushing Stormer aside to argue why he is more fit to kill me. I knew I had to act fast so I charged for Lycan, curled my fingers into a fist, and jabbed through his voicebox. Lycan tried to scream but nothing came out. The others were arguing too loudly to hear anything so I stole Lycans screwdriver and stabbed him through his power box. Lycans looked at me, anger filling his eyes, and then he turned off. I grabbed his face and snapped a piece off, resembling a sharp edge of a knife, and then jabbed it into Sparkys back.
"AHAhAhAhAhahAhAHAhhaHhahA" Sparky screamed a terrible scream and fell over. A black substance emerged from her chest, like the equivalent of blood for humans.
"Get him!" Stormer screamed as all their eyes turned red, body twisting and turning, and they shot after me. Stormer reached me first, so I stabbed him in the eyes, resulting in a blood-curdling screech that echoed across the room.
"NO!" Lightning screamed as he stepped back in horror. I felt a breeze over my shoulder and turned around accidentally impaling Snips in the side as he fell over and the black stuff shot out of the wound. "TAKE THIS!" I felt a sharp pain in my back, between my shoulder blades, and felt blood drizzling down my back. "HOW DOES IT FEEL?!" Lightning said in a scream as he was fighting back tears. I wiped around to face him, In a ton of pain was able to mudder 6 words...
"I don't know. How does it?" I said and stabbed his side of his head and then sliced his arm off, black stuff shot out as he fell over lifeless. "Y-Your the last one," I said pointing at the grey wolf, "What's your name," I asked groaning in pain and gasping for breath.
"Why should I tell you hm? Your gonna die anyway, I don't wanna waste my breath," he said standing up walking toward me. "And I will enjoy watching you suffer, not gonna lie," He said mocking me as I fell to my knees. "Your dead meat, just like everyone else here, but you fought back, you killed these weak morons in seconds, but you didn't look behind you, rookie mistake. You failed, admit it, you didn't watch your back, and so Lightning here," He said kicking Lightning's body "Was able to reach you, and so I didn't have to do anything. You are just another victim that will never be found. You dead bud, so just stop, stop holding on to life, there's no point anymore because your gonna DIE!" He said and kicked me to a wall, knocking the wind out of me. I could barely breathe. My vision was blurry "Your dead, Stop living, it's not heroic, in fact, it's just sad, Watching you waste away, no hope of living, let your soul be free, just die....," He said and pulled out a knife, hurled it at me. I moved out of the way to the wolf's shock and amazement and he drew another one. I gathered my strength and will and stood up, and chucked the blade at the wolf, hitting him square in the chest, "h-h-how....," He said staring at his wound.
"Why should I tell you huh? You're gonna die anyway, why waste my breath," I said and fell over to the ground. The wolf's wound was bleeding not leaking the black stuff, I was gonna ask but I blacked out. I woke up in a hospital bed looking around for anyone but then I noticed something off, "NO!"
