I swore this was the last time
I own nothing but my own ideas
Hey all. Its been awhile. Another Canadian election passed, and its October 23erd, and I realized "I wanted to post Until Dawn before Halloween." And I looked at my varied in progress works, and went, "Ironically, Emily has been working with me on this. In contrast to some of the others." So have some Emily looping.
Work title taken from the nate wants to battle song "Madness", chapter titles butterfly effects again.
"I know I swore that This was the last time
The madness never ends Up in my mind
I made a list It makes me sick
And I can't leave 'til it's done
I patiently await the day
To pack my bags and run"
Forewarned is forearmed
You stumble forward in the snow, trying not to throw up. Take deep breaths, trying to savor it. The feeling of your body being crushed, no don't think of it, don't think of it, dontthinkofit.
"Emily?" Matt asks.
It's a relief to see him alive, after he fell from the cliff. You give him a hug for no longer being dead.
But how?
If you were both dead, there is no way you would be on this mountain. This is the last place you would choose to spend your afterlife.
You hold a hand to his neck, feeling for his pulse. It's a relief to find.
But how are you alive?
You hear a noise and turn around, both on edge. But it's just Ashley and Chris.
They start babbling. Right. The psychopath on the mountain. The reason you ended up in the mines. Calling for help. A psychopath seems much more reasonable to deal with than the terrors of the mines.
You tell them to go call for help. You insist on going to the shed, despite Matt's protests. Seeing Josh's dead body can't be worse than the nightmare you just woke up from.
It's not there, but the smell of death is. It's eerie, in the same way that Matt's shoes in the mine were. Something out of place.
You hear a noise, and you turn, but something hits you in the head.
Your world goes black.
