Chapter Seven

Disclaimer: I still don't own and am making NO money.

Cybil narrowed her eyes and dodged as Shadow-Rose flew across the church at her, trying to rip her head from her shoulders. She dodged behind one of the many pews in the church and then pulled out her gun with a sigh.

"ROSE! ROSE STOP IT! I DON'T WANT TO SHOOT YOU!"

Shadow-Rose only roared and threw a pew across the room before she stepped towards the one Cybil was kneeling behind. The cop rose from her place on the floor and aimed her gun, finger on the trigger. Faster than she could register, the gun was skidding across the floor as Shadow-Rose picked her up by the neck and growled in her face, red eyes glowing with evil intent. Jake stood to the side, watching as his minion beat the living shit out of the poor police officer.

"Rose...stop it...you...don't want to...hurt me...we're...friends..." she said trying to get air into her lungs.

Shadow-Rose threw Cybil across the church into the wall, where she slid down to sit on the cold concrete floor under the large cross. She coughed as blood escaped her mouth and splattered onto the ground beneath her. Jake walked forward and stood beside the evil version of Rose, a wide, evil, demented grin on his face. He whispered something to Rose and vanished, as she moved forward, picked the injured officer up and slung her over her shoulder. Cybil winced and fought for a few minutes before falling into the sweet abyss of unconciousness.

When she came to, the cop was locked in what looked to be a prison cell, only it had a solid metal door instead of bars. She shook her head slightly and stood, only to find her hand chained to the bed.

"Where the hell am I..."

"You are in my domain now, human."

"Who are you!"

"I am the demon that has re-kindled the hells and demons of Silent Hill. I am the boy you knew as Jake."

At that moment, a large hulking figure opened the door to the room where Cybil was chained. Her eyes widened and she fell onto the bed in shock at the creature before her. The thing was a sick combination of Rose's human body and a reptile that walked on two legs. Her body was trapped inside the lizard's back, only her shoulders and head showing above the great green scales covering the reptile's body.

"ROSE! WHAT THE FUCK HAVE YOU DONE!"

"I have created a very strong minion out of your friend, she serves me well."

"LET HER GO YOU MANIAC!"

Then, the large lizard creature turned to Cybil and blinked, large yellow eyes glinting in the dim lighting of the room. It opened it's mouth, revealing rows of sharp teeth, and spoke.

"You wish to free her?"

"No, I LOVE seeing my friend as a damn demon, OF COURSE I WANT TO FREE HER!"

"Then you must find her."

"Find her?"

"Find her soul, and free it from the hell it is experiancing right now."

"How...can I see a soul!"

"That will be revealed in time, for I do not have the time to explain. You will know the soul when you see it, you will know in your heart."

"Fine...un-chain me."

"I cannot...you must free yourself." the lizard said before wandering off down the hall.

Cybil looked at the chain and the shackle around her wrist before looking around the room for anything she could use to break the chain. Seeing nothing, the cop swore and hit the wall. She looked at the shackle again and then took hold of it with her free hand before starting to pull, twisting and turning the trapped hand, cutting into her skin. Finally, with a final tug, and a large ammount of blood, her hand came free and she tore the bed sheet, quickly wrapping the bleeding hand.

"Alright...so I've got to find a soul...how hard could that be...what am I saying, I'll never be able to do this. No...I won't give up...I can't...not with her on the line...pull yourself together Bennett..."

Cybil took a breath and walked out into the hall, hand going for her gun, which of course had mysteriously vanished from her holster. She groaned and continued down the hall, passing more doors identical to the one she'd been locked behind. She took a look through the small window in one of the doors, and was greeted by a sight that almost made her vomit. Inside the room, was a young man, no older than 20, skinning himself alive and creating a nuse out of the severed skin. He had a maniacal grin on his face as he stood on the bed and looped the skin-nuse around his neck before stepping off the matress.

Cybil turned her head before continuing down the hall, trying to ignore the pained screams and moans of agony coming from behind the random locked doors. She instinctivly grabbed for her gun again, and growled in annoyance when it wasn't there.

"Damn people...taking my gun...they'll pay for that..."

Suddenly, a door at the far end of the hallway opened and a bright white light filled the area, causing the officer to shield her eyes and look away. The light grew warmer and less bright before it died completely.

"What the hell?"

A voice floated out from the door, "Cybil! Cybil help me!"

"ROSE!"

Cybil took off at a dead run towards the door, ignoring the extremely bad feeling flowing into her body as she got closer to it. When she reached the door itself, she stopped dead in her tracks and stared at the scene before her.

"Oh dear god."
