Chapter Seven: Truth
Where were you. You left me.
A voice was coming from the door next to us. A very recognizable voice. Akane was gripping ahold of me tightly as my hair was standing on end. We looked at Issac and the three of us ran as fast as we could down the hall.
YOU CANT GET AWAY! HAHAHAHAHAHA! You left me… It hurts so bad. Why did you leave me to die. Only six left to feel my pain...please come back… You need to come back...and DIE!
Philipi's voice echoed through the hall and all at once we came to the end and the stairway was gone.
"Oh shit. Oh shit oh shit oh shit!" Issac was flipping out until Iyumi appeared in front of us.
"In here quick!" She led us into a door. When we got inside we noticed that the room looked like nothing we had seen before in this godforsaken place. We were standing outside of the hospital. The sun was out and what got my attention the most was the silence. No birds, animals, or even people. The hospital itself looked completely run down, but I had a strange feeling we werent out of the hospital just yet.
"This is a continuation of the closed space." A strange man came up behind us. He had black hair and appeared to be very strong. He was older than we were but there was something strange about him.
"My name is Yoshiki Kishinuma. I see you met my friend Issac. Im here with him to not only stop whats going on here but to find a certain book that is here."
"You will never find the Book of the Dead!" Shouted Iyumi. Suddenly I got the feeling that this was not something we should involve ourselves in. I went to walk away with Akane but neither of us could move.
"Even if you found the book you could never use it. You dont have the bloodline."
"I may not but I know someone that does. A friend of mine is a Shinozaki." He turned to look at me and Akane. "There were eight of you trapped in here but now there is only six. I believe this may be one of your friends." He had Issac show us a picture on his phone and sure enough it was Akio. Akane screamed and fell to the ground as I stared horrified at what I was looking at. His eyes looked like they were burned out of his skull. Blood was clearly visible as I notices his entire lower body was gone.
"Iyumi." He looked at her. "What did you tell these kids?" She told him everything that she had told us. He looked at her very suspiciously.
"So thats what you told them? Just about Patient Zero? Theres more to it than that." Iyumi started laughing. "This is above these kids." She said. "They wont make it out of here alive anyway." Her clothes suddenly changed from a white nurse outfit to a black dress. "My master doesnt appreciate you being here. He wants you dead. What do you honestly think you could do with the book of the dead!?
"Only the book of the dead can raise the dead." Akane said and I turned to look at her. "I'm sorry Aaron but I knew this would all happen. I too am a Shinozaki after all. Yoshiki what is your friends name?"
He looked at here surprised and said, "Ayumi. Ayumi Shinozaki. Yoshie and Sachicko Shinozaki's relative."
"Hmmm…. Ive never heard of her but I know who the other two are."
"She is the current keeper of the Book of Shadows." I was lost by this point. None of this made any sense to me.
"OH GOD NO!" We all turned to see Issac being suspeneded in mid air by Iyumi. Before we could think she put her hand through his chest and pulled out his spine.
