A/N: I'm really sorry about not updating my story in forever, so I'm going to try to finish this really quick. ON WITH THE STORY!!!!!!!
It was a week after Emily welcomed the darkness and went to live with the well known monster of Silent Hill, the Red Pyramid, and its, assistance if you may, the Brown Pyramid. So far, no other monsters have opposed her since the Hanged Scratcher incident.
Emily was sitting at the dinner table eating some chilled cucumber soup when all of a sudden, Linda burst in, startling the girl so that she spilled some soup on herself.
"Linda, what's the major malfunction?"
"Where's Pyramid Head?" the nurse panted.
Emily pointed to the bedroom and Linda dashed off. Emily could hear the shrikes and noises of the Red Pyramid Head and the frantic murmurs of the woman that helped her get through the six stressful years at each hospital.
Linda then burst out of the bedroom and startled the girl again.
"We have to go now!" Linda cried as she ran to the metal walk.
Pyramid Head stopped at the girl and caressed her cheek and followed slowly for he had the Great Knife in hand.
"Be careful." Emily whispered after him.
She then looked at the mess that Linda made and decided there was no use blaming her. So she cleaned up the mess, but while she was, the other Pyramid Head came out of one of the side rooms and looked at her.
When Emily noticed the monster standing there, she nodded a hello to him.
The monster looked around for the larger one.
"He left with Linda not that long ago." Emily said as she straightened up.
The monster cocked is head to one side in question.
"She's the nurse that took care of me when I stayed at the hospital." Emily explained.
The monster looked taken aback by the statement.
"Yes, I am afraid of nurses, but only ones I don't know or the bubblehead nurses."
The other Pyramid Head nodded slowly as if it took awhile for the sentence to get through the thick metal helmet.
When it finally sunk in, he turned and went to go deeper into the red glow of the coal fire.
"Do I have the plague or something?" Emily asked herself, feeling lonely that no one could talk but her.
After she cleaned up the spilt soup, she placed the bowl in the sink for her to wash later, for now, Emily needed to relax and think.
Emily looked down at the soup stain on her shirt and sighed. She unbuttoned it and threw it in the hamper. As she drew herself warm bathwater, she took off her remaining clothes and settled in the tub.
Even though she was under the little town of Silent Hill, she could still hear the damn church's siren scream and wail that the menacing Red Pyramid had appeared.
'Hope he's alright.' Emily thought as she sank lower in the warm water.
Seeing that the lights weren't on, Emily noted that the water was turning darker with every passing second. Emily sniffed the air just above the water's surface and noted it smelled like salt and copper. She then opened her mouth to taste the water and when it touched her tongue, her eyes flew open and she almost fell twice. Once, getting out of the tub and second, on her way to turn on the light.
When the light was on, she saw that her tongue didn't lie to her. The water turned to blood, but she also noticed was that the blood was turning back into water, probably as soon s she scrambled out of the tub.
"Good God, that's creepy." Emily whispered as she wrapped a towel around herself and went out to the master bedroom. When she turned on the light, she almost had a heart attack, for there, sitting on the edge of the bed, was the Red Pyramid.
"Jeez, Pyramid Head, can't you make some noise in the dark?" Emily asked a hand over her heart. "When did you get back?"
The monster shrugged.
"Did you have any fun while you were up there?"
He shook his head.
Pyramid Head held out his arms and beckoned Emily closer so he could hold her.
Emily eagerly complied.
"I missed you, you know, even though it probably wasn't more than half an hour, but still." Emily said as she ran a hand over Pyramid Head's well toned arms.
Pyramid Head made a little growling sound.
"It's lonely here, being the only one who can talk." Emily mutters as she places her head in the crook of the monster's shoulder.
Pyramid Head was then very still, as if listening for something. He then turns and the girl falls onto the bed and the monster grabs his weapon and swings.
Emily heard something fall to the ground with a mixture of flesh and metal. Then there was a sound of grinding metal and Emily tried to block it out with her hands. When it stopped, she turned to find another one. Another Pendulum.
Pyramid Head swung again and split the smaller monster in two. The body fell to the floor with the same sounds as the first.
Pyramid Head growled loudly and stalked out of the room and Emily followed.
The monster went into his apprentice's room and there was a mixture of sounds. Anger mixing with confusion and fear. Then there was the sound of metal hitting the concrete floor. Emily peeked in and saw the smaller monster on the floor, moaning in pain.
Pyramid Head then took up the other's weapon of choice, the spear, and aims for the spot to where the heart is supposed to be.
"PYRAMID HEAD, STOP!"
Both Emily and Pyramid Head turned in surprise to see that the demand came from Linda.
"What the fuck do you think you're doing? Do you really want me to believe that he, of all people, sent Pendulums after Emily to kill her?" Linda then indicated to her. "She now has signed the contract that was offered, so every creature in Silent Hill is on edge, yes even you!"
While Linda explained everything to the Red Pyramid, Emily slipped into the bedroom and dressed quickly and went unnoticed to the metal walk that led her to the streets of the town above. She didn't stop walking until somehow she managed to come to her old school, until the contract of darkness was first offered.
Emily pushed open the front door and saw the empty hall, but her memory was filled with jeering faces and scornful words. Being pushed in the halls, her books falling to the floor from hard shoves, and the worst memory lay hidden in her classroom.
She entered the room and looked around the ashy room and looked at the teacher's desk in the front. Memories of her teacher, an old, graying man, punching her, beating her, then raping her and leaving her there when the siren sounded to find sanctuary in the damnable church. When the darkness fell that day, Emily remembers how safe she felt, alone, engulfed in the deepest black, regardless of the creatures she heard. Then felt strong hands. She thought they belonged to that pervert of a teacher and shrank away from the touch.
How could she understand that the touch of the most feared monster in Silent Hill would be the one she would crave for in the future?
As she walked down the hated hallways, she tried every door she came to, each the same. Locked. All except one. Emily opened the door and the room was the bathroom that she spent so much time in, crying, wishing to die, wishing all would die. When she was admitted to the hospital, Linda told her that in the last stall, is the old school janitor.
Emily turned away from the bathroom and wandered in the hallways again and found a bench. She sat and with the weight of her memories and pain, began to cry. She heard the siren wail and started to sob harder. The siren did no good, for the darkness fell faster than before. When the sky was the darkest it could be, Emily felt strong arms pull her against a well muscles chest. As tears fell, calloused hands wiped away the tears, the memories. The body she held vibrated with noises of comfort. Emily wrapped her arms around the body, not caring that her arms couldn't meet. For what seemed like an eternity, she cleansed her heart of the filthy memories with her tears, and when she finally stopped, she found Pyramid Head was sitting next to her, like he did in the past.
"Thank you Pyramid Head." Emily whispered as she dried her eyes.
Pyramid Head nodded.
"I wish I knew how you always find me." She whispered.
Pyramid Head touched the girl's cheek. He then sighed. How he longed to feel this perfect creature touch his face, kiss his lips, cleanse him of his sins. He then stood and offered the girl his hand.
Emily smiled and accepted it and followed the monster to the place where they both belong.
A/N FINALLY!!!!! It's complete!!! I'm working on chapter 4 as I type this, so who knows, maybe it will be up in a few weeks or so.
