Chapter 7: Alessa's Story

Jade was standing next to the sign which read 'Brookhaven Hospital' she took a few hours to arrive, but by then she realized the day and night weren't controlled by time, it was always day until 'the otherworld' appeared (it was always night then).
The building was pretty big and it should have been really majestic during it's better years.
The pale girl entered the main lobby, holding her steel pipe (she didn't wanted to waste the bullets of the gun, and the pipe was useful so far) the hospital, as she expected was all messed up and covered with dust and ashes and pretty dark.
She turned her flashlight on and started looking around, and calling the redhead carefully. She found a map of the hospital, and just by looking at it she knew she'll spend a really long time, the hospital had 4 different wings and 4 floors, according to the map
she was on the 2nd floor, Jade looked all the map, and she realized a little black mark on the last room of the 1st floor, it was a black circle with the words 'Core of darkness'.
That was a different letter than the one of the bloody scribbles, but Jade didn't had any other clues, and since the misterious scribbles helped her in the past, she decided to go straight to that room, but there was a problem, the stairs were blocked by a big pile
of remains and she doubted the elevetor would work.
She walked slowly towards it and saw a little sign, it has the same letter as the scribble in the map 'This elevator will work only if the dark one wants it' Jade pressed the buttons and it actually worked (either if it was for 'The Dark one' or not)
As soon as she got inside, the elevator fell at full speed, but it just kept going and going, like if the 1st floor was actually a few miles under the ground, and as sudden as it started to fall, it stopped.
As the elevator doors opened, Jade turned on her flashlight, what she looked was that the walls were a mix between the normal world and the otherworld: they were made of wood and concrete, but it was somehow rusted and bloody, stretchers and
wheelchairs were all over the hallway and the doors of the rooms where gone.

Jade walked slowly through the hallways, it seemed like a labyrint but it was only one way to follow since most of the ways were blocked by grating.
She walked for at least 20 minutes, following the traced way for her (or at least she felt that way), and finally she found a wooden door at the end of a specially dark hallway, but something was between Jade and the door:
Nurses... nurses wearing low-cut blouses with the first several buttons undone to display their cleavage, short skirts and heels, their skin was greyish pink and covered with dirt and blood and their faces were deformed and twisted and they had no hair.
They were huddled in a group, frozen in place in bent and strange positions, each clutching a weapon, such as a pipe or knife.

As soon as Jade shone the flashlight towards them, they started twitching and stomping, forming rows facing her, as if in an army.
They began to shuffle toward her, bending backwards and sideways, making sickly crackling sounds combined with moanings as they move.
Their movements were rigid and almost mechanical, with short, sharp intervals in between each movement.
Jade didn't moved but she had a really crazy idea, she turned the flashlight off, the nurses frozen as soon as the light dissapeared

"So the light attracts them" whispered Jade, the nearest nurses twitched their heads towards her, the sound attracted them too.

Jade slowly walked towards them sneaking through the group of creatures, as silently as she could, one blade-wielding nurse lashed out, barely missing Jade and cutting the throat of a nurse nearby.
The nurse continued to turn in circles, slashing blindly and violently, taking out other nurses around her. Jade, in the ensuing havoc, took the chance to escape, leaving her light switched on upon the ground to divert the creatures' attention.
As the nurses gathered around the flashlight, Jade opened the only door she found.

Inside there was a really creaky room, the wood looked decaying and you could see the pipes in some parts, there was nothing but a little desk, a chair and a stretcher covered with old curtains, Jade could see through them that a person was lying there.
Suddenly something moved and Jade took her gun out, it was another nurse, but this one was different, she had a red sweater above the nurse attire, her skin had a normal color and she was way cleaner than the other nurses (except for a few blood drops), besides she had long blonde hair.
As Jade pointed at her she walked towards the desk, covering her face and snivelng.

"Don't worry" said someone behind Jade "She won't hurt you"

The pale girl turned around quickly, the little girl with blue dress she has been chasing was standing there, smiling shadly, she had long, black messy hair, her skin was even paler than Jade's and it was covered with dirt and blood.

"You're that girl... Alessa, right?" said Jade surprised "Alessa Gillespie?"

"You can say so" answered her

"What do you mean?" asked the goth girl confused

"I am Alessa" said her and then she slowly pointed at the person who was lying in the stretcher "And she is Alessa too"

"So... you're both Alessa" said Jade kinda unconvinced

"You can say i'm Dark Alessa. Let me tell you a story so you can understand it better" said the girl smiling "A long, long time ago, a baby girl was born with special powers, she wasn't like the other children, she had special abilities, she could make things move by only thinking it.
Obviously the boys and girls of the town started to call her Witch" Jade remembered the lonely desk at the school "they teased her and made fun of her, but the children wasn't the worst part, do you remember that hanged man at the school?"

"How could i forget it?" said Jade with irony

"He made something horrible to Alessa and payed for it" said the girl smiling evily "but not even him was the worst part, there were 2 kinds of persons in Silent Hill: the ones that thought Alessa was the incarnation of the sin, and the ones that thought she was the mother of a god they workshiped, either way, they needed Alessa to die in order to accomplish their purposes.
Sadly for Alessa, the ones that thought she was the sin found her first and tricked her mother to Purify her"

"And what did they do?" asked the pale girl intrigued

"They said the only way to exterminate the demon inside her was burning the girl so the monster returned to the flames it came from" said The girl as Jade gasped "And they did it, they burned Alessa, thinking they were killing the demon inside her, but instead of that, they awoke it, using her powers, Alessa broke free and she survived the Purification but she was in a really bad shape, she was barely alive, really damaged and scared, every day was a struggle for her. Do you know what happens when you're hurt and scared for so long?, the fear and pain turn to hate and the hate starts to change the world.
Alessa was so frail that she decided to divide the only undamaged thing she has: her soul, she splitted it into 2 parts, that's when i appeared, i told her i'll sink everyone who hurted her into her darkest nightmare, and that they will suffer as much as they made her suffer, I am the dark part of Alessa, the one that contains the pain, spite, anger, agony and hatred, but i wasn't the only
part that was created that day, Alessa poured all her happiness and love into one little baby child, who was taken away from the town by me, so she could live the happy live Alessa never could"

The truth shaked Jade like a lightning bolt, it was so obvious and so weird at the same time

"...Cat!" said her surprised

"Exactly" said the little girl smiling "We're both part of the same person" she pointed at the older Alessa on the stretcher

"And where is she?" asked Jade worried

"She was at the Alchemilla hospital" answered Dark Alessa "but your friend cop won't save her"

"What do you mean?!" asked the pale girl completly worried

"Remember those 2 kinds persons i talked you before?" asked the little girl "they're still here, trying to find a way to destroy me and be free, but they can only destroy me if Alessa is complete, so they need your friend, she'll be in danger no matter who finds her first"

"If you created this nightmare..." said Jade thinkful "Why don't you get rid of them all"

"Their blind faith prevents me to do it directly" answered Dark Alessa smiling bitterly "But with your help i can get rid of one of the 2 kinds, whichever you choose"

"What do you want?" asked Jade a little confused but decided

"All we ask is for satisfaction" said Dark Alessa pointing at the older one

"Satisfaction?" repeated Jade

"Revenge" answered her smiling evily

"Just exterminate the one's who are threatening Cat the most" said Jade desperatly "and you can do whatever you want with them"

"Finally it will be the end of their days, and i'll be the reaper" said Dark Alessa grinning shadly, then she raised her hands and hugged Jade, the girl was really cold like if she was a living ice statue, and Jade could feel her melting and getting inside of her body
Jade shivered as the little girl dissapeared inside of her, and then started walking, controlled by Alessa, she headed towards the red nurse and she put her hand on the nurse shoulder, she turned around and Jade wanted to scream, but Alessa didn't let her:
The beautiful face of the nurse was eclipsed by her scarred eyes, covered with blood and burned, she cryed louder when Jade saw her eyes and tryied to cover her face again, but Jade took her hands and looked her into those dead eyes, smiling.

"You've accomplished your purpose" said Jade With both her voice and Alessa's "You can rest now, thank you Lisa"

The nurse smiled as her eyes slowly went back to normal, the blood dissapeared and Jade could see her real face, peacefuly smiling as she dissapeared in a cloud of mist.

"And now" said her again with both voices, she closed her eyes and saw Cat and Cybil being trapped by a horde of persons "So Christabella found them first" said her and for some reason she felt really happy and excited "Now i will purify her and all her followers"

Jade's body walked towards the door, the nurses that tried to attack her as she passed by crumbled into ashes when they touched her, she got out of the hospital and allowed Alessa to control her direction...
