A Promise

Rated: T

So this story came to me while playing Rule of Rose today. The story is purely Silent Hill 4 and implies slash between Walter and Henry. The story is set in 1930 like Rule of Rose and is sort of a combination of RoR and SH4, but it is NOT a cross over. This story will have elements of RoR, it's a mystery story where Henry is trying to find out about something from his past, much like Jennifer in RoR. The airship is modeled after the airship in RoR and so the names of the rooms Henry enters will be the same. However there are several differences with room layouts like the way the room numbers are set up. Sub-names/Titles are given to the characters just like RoR. Henry will also get more realistic weapons like in RoR for example, a kitchen knife.

I hope you all enjoy this. Please tell me if you'd like me to continue.

Chapter.1 the Unlucky Boy

March, 1930

The airship swam through the air, the propellers turning just fast enough to fight against the wind. The airship was large, larger then most airships and rooms littered the halls. The guest room numbers didn't go in order they were scattered all over the place. Room 21 was next to Room 11 and Room 20, Room 19 was next to Room 17, Room 16 was next to Room 18 and so on. Other rooms went in chronological order of numbers; the occupants who made up the rooms are as follows:

Room 1 – Jimmy Stone "The Devil King"

Room 2 – Bobby Randolph "The Occult Prince"

Room 3 – Sein Martin "The Curious Prince"

Room 4 – Steve Garland "The Animal King"

Room 5 – Rick Albert "The Gentle King"

Room 6 – George Rosten "The Doll King"

Room 7 and 8 – Billy and Miriam Locaine "The Twin Prince and Princess"

Room 9 – William Gregory "The Neat King"

Room 10 – Eric Walsh "The Birthday Prince"

Room 11 – Walter Sullivan "The Bloody Prince"

Room 12 – Peter Walls "The Junkie Prince"

Room 13 – Sharon Blake "The Clean Queen"

Room 14 – Toby Archbolt "The Predator King"

Room 15 – Joseph Schreiber "The Giving King"

Room 16 – Cynthia Velasquez "The Seducing Princess"

Room 17 – Jasper Gein "The Stuttering King"

Room 18 – Andrew DeSalvo "The Cruel King"

Room 19 – Richard Braintree "The Rude King"

Room 20 – Eileen Galvin "The Helpless Princess"

Room 21 – Henry Townshend "The Unlucky Boy"

There was also another occupant of the airship, Frank Sunderland "The Knowing King." Frank owned the airship and went out of his way to make sure every passenger was enjoying the flight and did whatever he could to make the flight more enjoyable for them. He showed kindness to every occupant of the airship. All the passengers returned the kindness that Frank showed and got along perfectly well with him. Things were going excellent so far, but something wicked was about to happen and the Unlucky Boy was going to be right in the middle of it.

The pitter patter of feet going up and down the hall woke the Unlucky Boy; he slowly rose from his bed and opened the door of his room to see two children disappearing around the corner. Henry recognized them immediately as Billy and Miriam Locaine, why they were up at this hour and why they were in this section of the airship was a mystery to him. The twins lived in the conjoined rooms of 7 and 8 which was on the other side of the airship. The Unlucky Boy knew no better then to follow the children. He followed them into the Guest Room Hall.

"Come on, come on," Billy laughed as he rushed down the stairs.

"Yes, come on," Miriam said, following her brother close behind. Henry walked over to the staircase timidly and slowly but surely made his way down into the 3rd Passenger Corridor. Henry couldn't see the children; he squinted in the dark but still could see nothing. The lights turned on suddenly, making him jump, a door slammed down the hall. He turned and headed down the hall moving slowly. Entering the Section 10 Crew Cabin he noticed that the crew was missing. The crew was in no means large, somebody of course had to be awake to maintain the airship, but surely a few members of the crew would be sleeping.

The Unlucky Boy heard laughter which he promptly followed into the Section 9 Turbine Room and then into the Section 8 Cargo Bay down the hall. Here he lost the children; marks were left on the walls though indicating where Henry should go next. He let the marks lead him through the cargo bay into the Section 8 Stairway. A large message scrawled messily with red crayon was next to the stairs, it read:

THIS WAY HENRY!

An arrow was just before the message, pointing up the stairs. Henry had a sinking feeling in his stomach, but pushed it aside and climbed the stairs. The door led to the First Class Guest Sector, the brunette saw the twins enter a door with a bright light hanging over it, a piece of paper was taped onto the door which was slightly ajar. Henry walked up and took the message off the door.

WELCOME HENRY! YOU'VE BEEN A BAD BOY! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Henry slowly opened the door and peered inside the dark room. Suddenly he felt a strong kick to his back, causing him to tumble into the room. The door slammed shut, leaving him trapped in the dark room. No matter how hard he pounded on the door and screamed for help nobody helped him. He gave up soon after and slumped against the door. What a truly Unlucky Boy.

I really hope you liked it. I was watching a RoR walkthrough to get all the room names down that Henry is meant to pass through to get to the lit door. Henry being kicked into the room is much like how Jennifer is kicked into the room. If you haven't played Rule of Rose, I highly recommend it it really is a good game.

Once again, let me know if you'd like me to continue and again FLAMES WILL NOT BE TOLERATED!

Have a nice day~
