Disclaimer: As you should all know by now I still don't own Silent Hill and if you didn't know that, well then you must have been living under a rock coz Konami own Silent Hill.
Note: I'm ba-ack!! After getting bugged for the past few weeks about writing a sequel to the Saddleworth Silent Hill Massacre I decided that I should probably do one. This one is set twenty years after the first Saddleworth Silent Hill Massacre! Many thanks to X'andirth and Pickle-sidekick for their inputs and ideas!
Even though it had happened 20 years ago what had happened that day still haunted them, they still couldn't believe what had happened and that they had lost one of their closest friends. They were still torn up inside and thought that what happened to her was their fault. The incident still played through their minds.
"Don't let anything happen to me"
"Don't worry Amber, we will make sure that nothing happens to any of us"
Those same two lines had been playing through Beké's mind for the past 20 years, she still couldn't believe that she was the end result of everything that they had been through that day. In the diary that she had found in Amber's kitchen her name had been signed at the end of every page, she originally thought it was a joke, until she had been taken from the group and possessed by the Pyramid Headed God. When she was possessed she knew what she was doing but she couldn't do anything to stop it, her screams had been drowned by the sound of the Pyramid Headed God and its distorted voice. It was the same voice that had been haunting her dreams for the past 20 years. She hadn't spent all her time thinking about what had happened but, that was about 85 of the time, she had gotten married to Jim and they had two kids, Ayren and Blake. Ayren had a strange resemblance to the girl that they had seen in 20 years ago.
Marie replayed the final battle over and over through her head every day, almost every hour on the hour. She thought about how she could have stopped Amber's death. She often wondered that if she could build a time machine and go back how she could change it. She had also gotten married which ended in a messy divorce, but she got full time custody of Tobias her son. She spent a lot of her time reading; it was the only thing that could take her mind off of the past.
Alia had taken a different approach to trying to forget what had happened, she had given up fruit-boxes, which wasn't the best thing because a week after the funeral she had started drinking. Every time someone saw her she was drinking, drunk or hung over and if she didn't have a drink in her hand she got angry. She also had a kid, but not as the result of a relationship, she had hooked up with a random and wasn't being safe which resulted in her becoming pregnant. She didn't know that she was pregnant until 3 months after she had hooked up with the random and it was too late for her to have an abortion. It was one of the hardest things that she went through because she couldn't drink and she didn't have the support of anyone. She didn't tell Beké and Marie about it until she was 8 months pregnant because she didn't want them to think any less of her. Beké and Marie supported her through the rest of it and almost as soon as she had gotten out of hospital she started drinking again. She was in trouble with child welfare and if she didn't stop they were going to take Eugene Franklin away who she loved dearly and gave her a reason to live. Majority of the time Eugene would be at Beké or Marie's house because of her drinking. Just after Eugene turned one she realized that she should give up drinking because it was ruining both her and Eugene's lives. Within the next three years after this she was in rehabilitation. While she was there Eugene stayed with Beké and Marie. When she came out of rehabilitation Eugene hardly even knew who she was. Their relationship had started all over again and soon enough Eugene recognized Alia as his mum.
It was a Monday night when the girls had decided that they would all have dinner together at Beké's house, which was a tradition. They started talking about the past and the conversation changed to what had happened on that day 20 years ago.
"Oh my god, tomorrows the 20 year anniversary of what happened…I can't believe it's been so long. Are you guys going to the thingy that the town council are putting on to celebrate?" Alia asked.
"What's to celebrate? It's still my fault that Amber…" Beké started, but couldn't finish due to the amount of tears running down her face.
"It wasn't your fault, I don't know how you can keep blaming yourself for it. If anything I should have saved her when she got attacked." Marie replied.
"Seriously guys, we need to stop dwelling on the past and think about the future, it happened 20 years ago, I think we can stop blaming ourselves for what happened, even if we could have stopped it before it happened, we just need to get on with our lives. I think we should go tomorrow, it will help ease our minds."
"That was one of the smartest things I've ever heard you say Alia. Yeah alright I'll go tomorrow, it'll help me forget about it…maybe."
The next day they had all decided to all meet up at the celebrations.
"They really out-did them selves this year." Beké said sarcastically.
"Yeah I reckon."
"We should probably go visit Amber and Alia this time try not to smash Vodka bottles on her grave."
"I was allowing her to drink it."
"Uh-huh, I'm so sure you were, that's why you cried for the next 20 minutes about having nothing to drink."
"Shut up, that was ages ago anyway."
"That was last year. Do you even remember the years before?"
"I try not to, they mostly consisted of me being hung-over."
"Well there was the year that…"
"Don't even bring it up, let's just go now and don't worry, I'm completely sober."
"Yeah that's pretty believable. Let's go before everyone else gets there, I mean we knew her better than everyone else did."
They walked over to the cemetery where Amber was laid to rest 20 years ago. Just as they entered through the gates, Beké thought she saw something hanging around Amber's grave, she had to double check and noticed something red walking away from it.
"I think I'm losing my mind."
"Yeah we already knew that."
