Well, it's my first Silent Hill fanfic, taking place sometime after Silent Hill 4. I know the chapters are short, but please be gentle! lol R&R, I really appreciate it.

Disclaimer: I do not own anything in the Silent Hill video game series.


Prologue

Black clouds float above us now.

An endless storm, never willing to release its rains on the scorched fields.

The darkness reaches, and the cries of the innocent fall upon deaf ears.

Death surrounds us now, God help us in this final moment.

Let our eyes see to the trueness of all things real.

Let our ears hear what can only be heard elsewhere.

Let our souls be brought with you into the everlasting light.

Silent Hill, West Virginia

Samantha sat in the cold confines of her room as the creature's howls echoed around her. Why don't they leave me alone? She screamed, hoping it would keep them away only a little longer. Silent tears formed in her eyes, beckoning the loneliness that had plagued her for so long. After all that's happened, it can't end like this, can it? They will kill me. She knew what would happen soon enough. And she knew how it had begun.

The monstrosities laying waste to the hallways just outside her room had spotted her now. As if to answer her fears, they shredded the door without needing to try. It's over. Slowly and quietly, she began her downfall. The monsters grabbed her by the throat. It's happening again. Her breathing was fading fast, and soon she knew she would die. Before the moment she knew would be her death, she had visions. Memories, she had always explained to her son, are something we cannot afford to lose. Now they come back to me.

It was lonely here. But it was not always this way. It all began with one man.


Thanks for reading, chapter 1 will be up soon!
