Silent Hill:
Revolution
Prologue:
Man one stood over me from the table, but Man two stood next to him. Why was I here on this table, why'd he have to make me bleed? "Do we give him another chance?" Man one asked Man two.
"We gave her a chance, and he should be able to see it," Man two said looking down at me. He only shook his head. "Why do the innocent die for this?"
Chapter One: I'm Not There
The male woke up on the floor of a tiled area. Where was he, why didn't any of this make since? His black shaggy hair covered his eyes but he brushed it out letting his green eyes be seen. His black shirt and blue jeans showed he wasn't barbaric but of some culture. His sandals stayed on his feet as he walked into the darkness looking around. All that was visible was tile. There was a tiled wall, a tiled roof, a tiled floor. His name was Jacob, but he didn't even know how he got where he was.
"Hello?" Jacob called out to the darkness looking around.
A flash of light came and then was gone. The room was still dark but before Jacob was a door, made of wood and belonged to that of a business building. Walking toward it Jacob twisted the knob and a female voice lifted the room.
"Lina told me he was a bad man, but I try to trust him. I am his sister after all. But where is he now? Why is my new daddy telling me that Jacob won't come to visit? Where is he?"
"That voice," Jacob looked around. His ears began to ring and he had to grab them quickly. Two people walked beside Jacob. Their lips moved but Jacob couldn't hear over the ringing. Jacob soon fell on the ground unconscious.
Jacob opened his eyes quickly to the sunlight of the park. Here there seemed to be no one around. Sighing he walked around to the baseball field and picked up a baseball bat. He felt that something was watching him.
Turning around came the eyes that Jacob had felt on his back. "Thought I escaped the hell of this," Jacob said holding the bat ready to hit. The thing was hard to descried, it looked like a blob of muscles covered in human skin, but with four long needle-like objects with it that allowed it to walk or even fly; this one was walking though. This was called a Pendulum.
Jacob swung at it once and dodged the razor sharp long needle like objects. He then jumped on the next one that came at him and swung crazily at the Pendulum. It fell to the floor letting Jacob kick it with all his might. Before long the Pendulum lay on the ground dead.
The scenery seemed nice despite the now dead monster on the ground. The trees grew wildly but were more like park trees, and the grass was fresh with some sidewalk down the center of the area. Benches were located around the area, along with a baseball field, where Jacob got the bat, and volley ball courts.
"This makes little since," Jacob said looking at it. "This isn't Silent Hill… it's Oaks Park back at home in Orlando. Maybe it's just my head telling me it's Oaks Park. I don't know," Jacob started to shake his head. Despite the confusion he walked on.
At the front of Oaks Park was the gate closed, meaning that this exit, the only one too, was locked. There had to be a way out though, or at least Jacob wanted to believe in that. He turned quickly and started looking around for anyone that might have the key to the gate.
On the other side of the park Jacob found a sign of what he was looking for, there was a guards building up ahead. Upon opening the door there was a rotted body on the floor with its face ripped off. Jacob turned it over and looked around the body. Even though he should've been praying for the soul to go to heaven, he was more worried about spending more time on earth. Inside the pocket of the guard's pants was a key that seemed to be used to remove a lock. The first thing that came to Jacob's mind was the gate but all he could do was hope that it had worked.
Jacob rushed to the gate and pulled out the key he had taken from the corpse of the guard and tried it on the lock. With luck it opened the lock on the chains and allowed him to open the gates doors. With a happy smile Jacob rushed out of the park.
On the streets of Orlando Jacob had found himself alone. No cars zoomed by, nobody was jogging into the open gate of the park and stunned by the dead bodies. It just seemed as though he were the last one here and no one else had existed. The world had just frozen in time.
With this Jacob set foot on the pavement to see if any cars would mush him into the next millennium, but that didn't seem to happen. He walked down the streets and looked more at the no signs of life. The doors to the stores and such were closed, but they weren't to open till six. Jacob pulled out his cell phone and checked the time. It was stopped on one minute till six. Maybe they just weren't opening early.
Further down the street Jacob found a church with some lights on inside. He opened the doors to the inside to see a female inside. Her hair was black and in a pony tail. She wore a black robe but didn't seem like she would. She was also a little past the normal figure, but that wasn't important.
"Hey, you alright in here? I thought churches had closed at certain times," Jacob said walking in. The church door closed behind him, but that seemed odd since the door normally wouldn't do that.
The woman turned around. "You, you're here finally," The woman walked over to him with a smile on her face. "Oh how I longed for this day. They told me that you'd never leave there but I just knew they were wrong… or am I? Am I in there with you?" The woman looked at him carefully with that grin still on her face.
"Um yeah sure," Jacob said rolling his eyes a little. "Who are you?"
"Pardon my rudeness," The woman said backing away and dusting off her robe. "My name Is Shannon. I'm from there you know." Shannon made a little giggle.
"Where's there?" Jacob asked looking at her.
"Oh you do not remember? Shame they must've wiped your mind clear. Thought you would've remembered Sophia or Lina at least," Shannon said with a shrug.
"Lina?" Jacob was more interested in the second name but then shook his head. "Wait how do you know Sophia?"
"I know many things, about you at least. Of course the supplier of the information wished to stay unknown to you, so I will keep that to myself. But of course you must be wondering why there was that in the park," Shannon said with a smile. She was referring to the Pendulum.
"Oh yeah that monster, well I've dealt with them for awhile but I thought they went away. Silent Hill did let me go," Jacob looked at her.
"Tsk tsk tsk," Shannon closed her eyes and waved her finger at Jacob. "I must be there with you then huh? Well be aware that you will see the normal world once again. Come back when you are ready to find your sister. Trust me though, you are not yet." Shannon turned and looked out a stained glass window.
Jacob shrugged and walked outside of the church. Rain fell like a normal day and the street was now busy with cars. The night sky had fallen in and the moon shinned down on the ground. The door to the church closed suddenly and Jacob looked back. When he tried to open it the door didn't budge. On the ground, chiseled into the pavement said the words, "Across the street :: Diner".
Jacob stopped looking at the cars and as soon as their light went red he ran across the street to the other side. Here was the diner that was written in the cement. Jacob quickly opened the door and looked inside. Waiters and waitresses alike walked around there, and it looked like a diner you'd find in the seventies. Only one person sat in a booth, no one else was inside the restaurant.
Inside the tile Room Jacob twisted the knob of the door more and more to the office door but it seemed not to open. Those two men had gone and he had woken up moments ago. The door just wouldn't open.
"Come on open up, there's no where else to go," Jacob said kicking the door with fury. It just seemed to sit there with no movement.
Letting out a sigh Jacob fell on the ground lightly, but also purposely, and laid back on the cold tile. The looked up at the ceiling wondering what he was supposed to do now being trapped in a room and all.
Jacob sat down and yet it was another female here. He looked at her for a second before saying, "Hey, what are you doing sitting here alone?"
The female looked up with a puzzled look. "Why the fuck did you sit here?" She asked. She was shorter than most people. Her hair was brown with red streaks through it, which of course was her natural hair color. She didn't look all that happy yet she seemed like she was. "Waiting…"
"Oh sorry, just came here because the sidewalk said so," Jacob said being honest and leaning back in his seat.
"Wow," the woman said getting a surprised expression before making it fade. It was a sign of her sarcasm.
"Well anyway, who are you?" Jacob looked at her.
"Why the hell should I tell you?" the woman said looking at him.
"Well you know, it's the courteous thing to do. Apparently everyone else lately has been willing to introduce themselves," Jacob said a little rudely.
"Yeah, well I'm heading for Madison Street, don't follow me," the woman said getting up and walking away. A key dropped from her pocket as she walked out. Not even looking back she started her car and drove off. Jacob walked over and picked up the key, which was a gold rust color.
"Well that was nice, but I've heard Madison Street from somewhere," Jacob said walking out and toward the street. Then that female voice that spoke to him came again.
"I wish he would come and see me already. Me and new daddy moved to Madison Street now but I just wish I could see him once again. He's always speaking of some woman coming to visit too…"
Jacob snapped back to reality after hearing the voice and called out for a cab. When he finally got inside he handed the guy sixty dollars and said, "That's more than enough for where I want to go. I need you to get to Madison Street as fast as possible."
The cab driver nodded frantically with excitement and sped off down the road.
It soon stopped on Madison Street after twenty minutes and Jacob saw a car parked in front of a house. It wasn't just any car though, he knew that car and its owner. Knocking on the door he heard a male voice on the other side that sounded very familiar.
"Hello?" The voice called out.
"I knew it was you," Jacob said now trying to open the door.
"Wait, how are you here?" the male voice asked, the door slightly opening. "I swore I killed you back at the town."
"Yeah well weird things happen there, you should know that," Jacob said trying to open the door. The door quickly slammed shut.
"Look just go away, we all need to forget about Silent Hill and you coming back here will just bring back the memories. Plus little Sophia shouldn't ever have nightmares again."
"That's why I'm here, I wanted to see her," Jacob said still standing at the door.
"Just go away, or I'll kick you off my lawn," The male voice said with anger.
"Fine, fine," Jacob said waving his arm around before walking to the cab and then stepping inside. "Hey uh just drive me back to the diner. That'll do." The cab driver nodded his head a little before pushing the gas and arriving back at the street twenty minutes or so later.
As Jacob exited the cab he looked at the church across the street instead of the diner behind him. He took his chances and ran across to the other side almost getting hit by two oncoming trucks. On the other side Jacob didn't looked back but went to the church door and opened it. Inside there was a new woman.
This woman seemed a tad bit younger than Shannon, but her figure was pretty much the same. Her blond hair was cut shoulder length and her glasses made the reflection of light block her eyes. She wore a blue shirt with some khaki jeans. "Ah so you have come, do not worry I'm here," The woman said.
"Ugh I'm getting tired of people I don't know suddenly appearing from no where," Jacob said messaging his forehead.
The woman turned and her face was plain, unlike Shannon's constantly smiling face. "My name is Megan. I'm here to get you out of where you have been trapped," The woman said walking toward him. She held out a small red jewel and nodded her head at it letting Jacob know to take it. He reached his hand for it and snatched it from her hand.
"So I never left there huh?" Jacob asked looking at Megan.
"You left," Megan looked around as though she was being watched. "But now you are trapped in the horror. I can't explain that much and even if it seems I am not helping, I am. But try to save everyone that you can, it might make the larger difference in the end." Megan walked to the alter of the church and stood there opening a book that looked similar to the bible.
"What are you reading?" Jacob asked looking at Megan.
"This is the doctrine of my old faith, but I am not so sure that I am to follow it now. I believe that my people worship the devil and will not stop until the ideals of him are satisfied. You are for the next ideal though, you have been seen as a threat," Megan looked at Jacob.
"The cult from-" Jacob started but then Megan cut him off.
Megan got close to his face and placed her finger in front of her mouth making the shush sound. "Yes they are but paradise to them is not paradise to I."
"How can I trust you?" Jacob asked.
"Trust is earned, not just handed out. If you choose to trust me then trust me. It's up to you whether you want to but you'll need to choose your allies wisely," Megan walked to the window and looked out.
"Yeah…" Jacob nodded a little before walking to the churches front door and exiting.
"He's entered the misery room, maybe he'll get out though," Megan thought to herself.
Jacob had been in the tile room for awhile when he remembered he had gotten the key from the diner that fell on the ground. Jacob reached the office door and looked on its tag reading it, "Office of Karina Machado". When Jacob twisted the key and the door unlocked, he guessed the name of the girl from the diner was Karina. With that he opened the door and was about to start his journey.
