Disclaimer: I do not own the characters of Until Dawn or the game or story. All rights go to Supermassive Games. IF I owned this game...I don't what I'd do, but it'd be great. All I own is the plot, the storyline, and any OC who may show up within the story, so please enjoy and as always please leave positive reviews only! I don't have a PS4, but I watched YouTubers like DashieGames RunJDRun, PewdiePie, and GhostRobo, and I fell in love with this game. The story was immersive, the characters were amazing and had feeling (except Emily, she was a total bitch). Also, the only two characters that are not added in this story are Emily and Matt. I can't stand Emily's character because she was a total ass, and Matt I thought was a total whimp for not standing up against Emily when she was pushing him around. So, please, let me know if I should continue! Also, in this fanfiction will be hints of JoshXSam because I always thought they made such a cute couple.

Chapter 1 - Isolation
"Do you know what I think, Joshua?" Dr. Hill said drawing in a deep breath as he held out a needle full of crystal clear liquid. "I think you killed your sisters for attention, am I right?" "No!" Josh shook his head. "I would never hurt my sisters, I swear!" The Analyst smiled. "Your sisters had everything, didn't they? They always got away with everything, too. Even your parents use to love them more than you, isn't that right? What did your father say when he found out you killed your sisters?"
"I-I didn't hurt them…" Josh stammered fearfully as the doctor brought the needle closer to his arm making him freak out. "Joshua, who are you trying to fool, hmm? You are an attention seeking psychopath who hunted your sisters down and murdered them in cold blood!" "No…" Josh said in horror as tears now blurred his vision. "no…I-I wouldn't…" The doctor smiled again and held the needle up for Josh to see through his blurry vision and said, "This will help you forget what you did to them, to your friends, that's what you want isn't it?"
Josh shook his head in response as the analyst ignored him and found a vein in Josh's forearm and the needle into him, spilling it's cold liquid into Josh who was shaking and trembling in absolute terror. Suddenly he stopped as his breathing relaxed, and his muscles started to become lifeless and relaxed as well. Josh found his vision starting to blur again, and he couldn't feel anything else anymore as his eye lid began to grow heavy as he became drowsy…Soon everything faded away as a blanket of darkness enveloped him, followed shortly by dreams of his sisters...
Beth's breathing caught in her throat from the cold night air as she struggled through the snow desperate to find her missing twin. "Goddammit Hannah, where are you?" She grumbled as she kept running, not realising she was closely being followed. Suddenly she heard sounds of crying in the distance which grew louder and louder the closer she got.
"Hannah?" she called in worry and letting out a sigh of relief as she caught sight of her trembling twin. "Oh my gosh, you must be freezing." She said taking off her hot pink jacket and wrapping it around her sister's shoulders. "Here take my coat." She said helping Hannah to her feet.
"I am such an idiot." Hannah said her voice breaking in sobs. "I'm so dumb." Beth was about to reply when the snapping sound of a twig nearby caused them both to flinch as they grabbed each other's hands and started running. Where were they running to? Who was trying to hurt them?
The twins gasped as the cold chill of themountain air seared their lungs as they continued to run, trying to make their way back to the lodge, not realising that someone was following them, not trying to scare them, but to save them. Suddenly the twins gasped in horror as they had now realised they had taken a wrong turn and came up to one of the mountain cliffs.
Turning their back to the cliff to see what was coming for them, all they could see was a figure shrouded in black from the fog that now surrounded them. "No!" Hannah cried out in terror clinging to Beth's hand.
"Stay away!" Beth cried out fearfully. "Stay away from us. Hannah's foot etched to the mountain's cliff and without warning, she slipped, and dragged Beth with her over the cliff. The girls fell but not very far as Beth managed to grab ahold of a branch from a fallen tree. "Hold on!" She called to her twin as Hannah struggled to keep a good grip on her sister's hand.
"Hold on!" Beth looked up and gasped in horror as she now saw the figure looming over them with an outstretched hand towards them to pull them to safety, but just before Beth could think about what to do next, the branch supporting her and her sister's wight snapped, causing the twins to scream and fall to their untimely deaths. "No! No! NOOO!"
Snapping awake out of the nightmare, Josh panted heavily, his eyes were wide with fear and horror that ran through them. With shaking hands, he pulled back the white blankets that had covered him and stood up, his legs wobbled as he struggled to keep his balance due to the medicine from the needle Dr. Hill had given him. Trying as hard as he could, he managed to make into the door of the room, and leaned against the metal frame, trying to calm his breathing, although it did little to help. Tension clung to his shoulders as he wrapped his arms around himself, before giving up trying to stand and slide down the door with a thud, when he hit the cold tiled ground.
"Why does this always have to happen to me?" He found himself muttering now in terror. "Why do these damn nightmares keep haunting me? It's been like that every night since Hannah and Beth...Their disappearance…"all he had was dreams that seemed to be teasing him with not being able to protect his sisters like he should have. Having them so close and yet so far from his grasps. Without even realising it, tears slid down his face as he held his knees against his chest. "You're pathetic..." Josh's frantic breathing suddenly grew higher by a few pitches as he heard a familiar voice boom around him. He buried his head in his arms and didn't look up. He didn't need to, he already knew who was there.
"You're weak…" "No," Josh cried out and curled more into himself if that was even possible. "Please, just leave me alone!" "You let us die!" Finally, Josh snapped his head up and immediately regretted it as the sight of his sister's greeted him. They stood there, looking down at him with a sneer knitted onto their already decaying features, their bodies beginning to decompose. "You're not real!" Josh cried out hysterically, his eyes frantically looking anywhere but at the girls. "Josh," Beth crouched down next to her brother. "You let us die, you killed us, and you're nothing but a coward-"
"Shut up!" It was Hannah's laughing beside him that made Josh flinch away in fear as he scrabbled on his hands and knees over to the drawers that were there. Anything to get away from the twins. "No one can save you, Josh," she said while her head twisted to look at him better. "Not even Sam." 'Sam!' Josh's thoughts were panicked. 'This isn't real, this isn't real!' He didn't even realise that he was speaking his thoughts out loud. 'But Sam is!'
Thinking of the beatutiful strong tomboy who he secretly loved, a sudden sense of reassurance washed over him when both Hannah and Beth seemed to fade in and out like an old black and white TV being tuned, but it was short lived. Beth grinned sickly. "You don't think he'll want you, do you?" Hannah's laugh was her only response. "After everything you've done? You think that Sam will want you with what a mess you've become?" "Look at yourself!" Hannah chimed in. "No one cares about you. Sam doesn't even like you, you'll disgust her when she sees those marks."
Josh looked down at his bare arms, shaking with an unknown amount of emotion, they were right. Long cuts and bruises married his skin, that he had been marking into himself since last year. Some were old, others were new, some had dried blood by them and some were simply pinkish/red marks that seemed to stand out against his skin. If Sam knew…She wouldn't want to be his friend anymore, and he would never get the chance to really tell her how much he loved her. "Face it," Beth began and Hannah finished. "You're better off dead."
Josh's breathing grew frantic again as he looked around and noticed a small blue bottle on the table near his bed and made a slight run for it, with what use of his legs he had left. Grabbing the bottle, his eyes scanned over it. Possible side effects listed as Hallucinations, paralysis, seizures, light-headiness, weakness of all muscle movements, numbness, trouble concentrating, nightmares, blurred vision, headaches, ringing in the ears and drowsy or dizziness. This stuff is supposed to be banned. He thought. Why would the Doctor give me something like this? He shook his head to clear it as he opened the cap of the bottle and popped two pills into his hand. He was desperate for a way out. Desperate to sleep forever. Anything to stop the pain...
TOO BE CONTINUED...Poor Josh! Will he survive? Let me know if you want to see more chapters to this, and I will try to update as soon as possible. Also, let me know which character you want to see with next. Chris? Jessica, Mike, Sam, or Ashley?
