This is a fanfiction Drew and I worked together to create. It's her first and my second, and both our first for anything not a cute and fluffy series. This is our fan-Silent Hill story. I'm not expecting many people to like it, but I'm guessing Drew is. Whatever. So thank you for reading this.
Oh, and... Silent Hill is not ours, either. We just made this up
You are always told that your childhood memories are sweet things. People say those memories should be cherished and loved. You should never forget them.
For me, it's already too late.
"Aaron, stop," a girl that had a little less than a year left of being a 'teen' said. "We're running out of gas." She looked over at the dark-blonde boy next to her. He glanced at her, his hand placed firmly on the driving wheel.
Turning back toward the road, but still talking to her, the boy of twenty years replied, "Come on, Roxanne. I'm sure we can make it to the hotel within the day." Aaron grabbed his coffee and took another quick gulp, noting that it was getting low. Their little car moved on through the dark, quiet night.
"You have to stop somewhere. We can't just get there in one day. I mean, there has to be a town nearby here that we can stop at,
Roxanne folded out their map of the area. Quickly finding the road they were on, her finger traced the route in the direction that they were traveling, and she spotted a town. "It says there's a town a couple miles from here," Roxanne pointed out. "It's called 'Silent Hill'." She brushed some of her dark, straightened black hair out of her eyes with her right hand.
"Then I guess we'll stop there. Didn't someone say that it's a vacation spot or something?" Her brother asked in response to her suggestion.
"Yeah, and there's a place we can stay. It's called the Lakeside Resort." Roxanne looked outside the window. "You would expect a road to a resort town to be packed! But, we're the only ones out here," she sighed. It was true. The pair of older brother and younger sister, Aaron and Roxanne, were the only ones on the road. Aaron felt alone and isolated. It wasn't exactly a new feeling for the boy. Roxanne tried to lighten the mood and, grinning, added "Well, then that means we'll have the whole place to ourselves! Nobody else to take it!" Aaron turned, smiled weakly back at her, then averted his eyes back to the road.
An awkward while of silence passed, every so often interjected by Aaron taking another swig of coffee to keep himself from falling asleep at this ungodly hour of the morning like everyone else. He finished the cup quickly and then ignored it.
"Damn! You can't see anything in this fog!" Aaron ended the silence with a frustrated tone. He shivered and shrugged off the premonition something bad about to happen, which seemed to be spreading throughout his body, purely for his lack of evidence to support this feeling. He squinted up as a huge green sign loomed into his view. The sign itself, although in need of some maintenance, wasn't what caught his eye. What caught his eye were the letters. Nineteen white letters spelled out the four words that would change his life.
