Break Away

Chapter 10

"DANNY!"

Said boy eye's scanned the room, finding the blue-haired boy hiding behind a desk, avoiding the flying disks. "Hold on dude!" Chris looked around and picked up a screen of a broken monitor. He got up and sliced through the cables thus letting go of the brunette, who Chris caught before he could hit the ground. Everything shut off as a result. He set the other down, "You okay?" He asked as he inspected the other's arms; to find second degree burns where the cables were wrapped. Danny didn't answer as he sucked in the much needed air, his chest heaving. Chris picked the other up in a firm grip, and set him off to a safer side of the room. Chris looked into the closets and other rooms to see if they was a first-aid kit.

He eventually found one in a supply closet and set it on one of the tables before returning to the brunette. He picked the other up off the floor before bringing him into the other room and sat him on the table. The brunette remained quiet as his gaze was fixed on the floor and his hands in his lap. Chris opened another door to reveal a restroom. Very convenient. He rinse the bucket on the floor out before filling it with cool water. "Danny? Can you come in here? And bring the first-aid kit please?" He called out as he washed his hands and a few seconds later the brunette limped into the smaller room with the first-aid kit in his grasp. "Sit." Chris ordered and the other complied.

Chris began to clean the younger boy's wounds, having experiences with burns himself, and watching his mom take care of them. Soon after, Chris had just finished securing the bandage on the last of his burns and begun to clean up the supplies. He had finished and closed the first-aid kit when a small voice spoke,

"Thank you."

Chris looked to the side and gave a smile. "Ah, don't mention it. What're friends for?" And with that Chris stood and left the bathroom, leaving Danny to his thoughts. I thought I was a goner…but…he saved me…and he helped me…Danny snorted at the irony that this situation was similar to how the two first met. With Chris being electrocuted by the vending machine and him taking him to the infirmary…truly ironic. Danny stood from his place on the floor and walked to the door and leaned on the frame with his hands in his pockets. He watched as Chris put first-aid kid back, along with other things, in the closet.

He really is a good friend…

He walked over as Chris finished putting the stuff away. "Okay, we've gotta get outta this place." Chris spoke, Danny nodded and the two walked out the room and into the hall. They walked for a while until they suddenly heard a familiar screeching sound. Followed by a blast of blue electricity, much like the one Danny was electrocuted with. They ducked the attack before straightening again.

"Run!"

The two boys took off, not wanting to have to see the beast they already knew was near.

Danny and Chris sprinted into another room and hurriedly closed the large metal doors and locking them. They both leaned against them on their backs, panting with their hearts racing, beating a mile a minute. "Okay…we really have to get out of here. And quickly." Chris rasped, as he tried to get himself together, Danny coughed, "No fucking duh!" He snapped. Chris was about to snap back when he took in their surroundings. The room they had entered seemed to be some sort of appliances and machine room, with all these machines and conveyor belts. Danny looked around as well and shuddered.

"This place is creepy, and after being attacked by that thing I don't think we should stay here." He said quietly, Chris looked at him and nodded and, after making sure the door was secured, they began walking through the overly large room trying to find another exit. "Alright Danny, let's split up." Chris spoke quietly, "You check in that section over there and I'll go over here." Danny trembled violently as the other walked away before he got his feet to work and take him over to where he was directed.

Chris walked around searching before he stopped and looked around. He saw a hall that must connect to another section over on his left, and he quickly jogged over to it. He stopped and leaned against the wall and peered around the corner…

While he was occupied with that he was completely unaware of the familiar blue electricity that emitted from the electrical sockets and transferring into the machines which suddenly powered on and watched Chris, following his every movement…

Green eyes scanned their surroundings, the owner taking deep harsh breaths trying to stop the panic that threatened to take over.

It's okay Danny, it's okay…just take deep breaths…it's okay, there's nothing to be-

NO!

You'll never be alone!

When darkness comes,

I'll light the night with stars-

Hear the whispers in the dark!

NO!

You'll never be alone!

When darkness comes,

You know I'm never far-

Hear the whispers in the dark!

Whispers in the dark!

Danny's breath hitched and his heart sped up as soon as the music of the ring tone blared from his pocket, scaring the living daylights out of him. He gripped his chest, coughing at the sharp pain inflicted inside as he fumbled for his phone. (AN: It happens to me when someone scares me shitless.) Once he pressed the talk button he held it to his ear, still gripping his clothed cover chest.

"You nearly gave me a fucking heart attack! Were you trying to almost kill me just now?!" He coughed, as he worked on getting his rapidly beating heart under control.

"Sorry Danny, but I need you to come back. I found a way out."

"Mkay…I'm…I'm on my way…" And with that he hung up and put his phone away. He cleared his throat then taking deep breaths trying calm down, before he turned around and walked through the door he came though.

He moved quickly and with efficiency, not wanting to spend another minute inside that creepy ass place. As he walked to the main room, some machines began to follow him yet keeping at a distance.

"Hm?"

He wondered when he heard a clicking sound yet it stopped when he stopped walking. He shuddered, and began to walk once more until he was in a hall. Looking back behind him to make sure of his safety, Danny walked through until he bumped into something resulting in him landing on the floor. He grunted in pain and looked up, to see a hand extended out towards him. Gratefully he grabbed it and was pulled to his feet, "Thanks Chris."

"You okay?"

"Yeah, I'm okay."

"Alright then let's go. I found a stairwell not too far from here." Chris explained and began walking with the other following behind. As they walked Danny once again heard the clicking noise and slowed his paced to a stop as he turned and looked around. Something didn't feel right…he felt like…they were being watched. Looking upon closer inspection Danny saw one of the machines twitch.

"What?" He gasped out, fear clouding his head as he saw it twitch again, but more visible this time. His head snapped to the side as he head a drill sound and right when he thought he going crazy, the conveyer belts powered on and begun to move.

Freaking out, Danny took a few steps backwards before he was knocked off his feet and onto his back. He groaned sitting up as he watched a small platform mobile approach him. He crawled backwards until he was on his feet again. The machines all began to power on and move, Danny's voice was stuck in his throat as his body trembled violently. He ran forward and jumped over the machine that was approaching him, without second thought.

"CHRIS!"

Okay so he had to admit; Danny was honestly scared out of his mind right now. I mean who wouldn't be, if killing machines suddenly turned on by themselves and were trying to attack you? He ran and ran until he got far enough from his little enemies, stopping to catch his breath.

Up from above, a large mechanical drill slowly closed in on him but he was too occupied to notice. Suddenly the drill shot downward at him with incredible speed.

"GET DOWN!"

Danny's body hit the ground as the blue haired boy tackled him, the drill missing them by mere inches. Both were breathing heavily as the two tried to comprehend what just happened. Chris sat up on his knees as he look at the brunette who he noticed was much paler than usual. "Danny are you okay?" He asked gripping said boy's shoulders when he sat up, "Yeah, thanks for saving me. Again." He breathed, Chris nodded and helped the other boy to his feet. "No problem, now come on."
