Nagisa stepped out of the elevator, he seemed to be in the hallway of a house. "This place keeps getting weirder. I have to find a way out of here." He stated to himself. He looked around the hallway there was a stairwell to his left and a doorway in front of him. He ended up walking towards the doorway which opened up into a large living room covered in flowers. Nagisa stopped, wide-eyed. In the middle of the room, there was a small blonde haired girl on the floor with a bible by her side. In front of the girl, laid a white couch covered in blood. On the couch, a man and woman had been stitched together. The man had a stuffed bear arm replacing his left arm and the woman's face was sewn into a smile. Nagisa walked over to the girl and checked her breathing and heartbeat.
"She's still alive, that's good." Nagisa stared at the corpses on the couch. "Did she faint from the blood?" He asked himself. He looked back at the girl. "In any case, I should move her somewhere safer." Nagisa picked up the girl and headed back into the hallway and up the stairs.
Nagisa set the girl down gently and down the hallway. There were two doors on the right side. "I wonder if there is something I can lay her on in one of the rooms." Nagisa took a step down the hallway, the floor cracked beneath him.
"The floor is breaking apart, I have to be careful where I step." He took another step forward and his foot caught on a small white plate. "Huh, what's this." He picked up the plate and turned it over. "Mr. and Mrs. Gardner? Where does this go." Nagisa continued down the hallway before stopping at the first door. "Huh, there's no keyhole?" Nagisa held up the plate and noticed a post on the door. "Maybe if I put this on the door it will open?" Nagisa fastened the plate to the post and waited for a moment. Nothing happened. "Not here I guess." He removed the plate and made his way to the second door. He repeated the process of fastening the plate to the post. The door swung open, startling Nagisa slightly. He glanced in the room before spotting a large queen bed. "I can place her there." Nagisa decided and he went back to the beginning of the hallway and picked up the girl. After placing the girl in the bed Nagisa took a look around the room. Besides the bed, a rocking chair, vanity, and dresser furnished the room. Nagisa went towards the end of the room and saw the elevator passage staring at him. "Ah, I should probably wait till that girl wakes up before I leave." Nagisa looked back at the girl on the bed, who showed no signs of waking anytime soon. "Maybe she'll wake up if I pour some water on her." Nagisa took one last look around the room before heading out and heading down the opposite stairwell.
The other side of the downstairs area lay a simple kitchen area. Nagisa grabbed a cup from the cupboard and went over to the sink and tried turning it on. The handles didn't even move, it was almost as if they had been glued down. "Huh, who would have a sink that doesn't work." Nagisa sighed and put the cup down on the counter. Nagisa walked away from the countertops and explored the rest of the room. There was a table with a pizza box on it, which Nagisa didn't even want to open and two other doors, one on the right and one in the back of the room. Nagisa went to the back door and grabbed the doorknob. The door turned open and Nagisa walked inside.
The room was set up to look like a bathroom with one key thing missing, water. Nagisa had tried both sinks before noticing the bathtub. The bathtub was full of murky looking water and Nagisa could have sworn something was moving underneath. "It's not the cleanest water, but it should do the trick." Nagisa went back into the kitchen and grabbed the cup from the counter before heading back towards the bathtub. He stuck the cup into the tub when something bit his finger. He pulled his hand out quickly, dropping the cup to the bottom of the tub. "What was that?" Nagisa's finger had small bite marks on it and was bleeding slightly. Nagisa grabbed another cup from the kitchen before sticking it in the tub again, this time being careful to only put the cup in. "Got it," Nagisa said pulling the cup out. Suddenly he heard the sound of something dragging across the floor, it sounded like it was coming from the room to Nagisa's right. "It's the dude from before, I have to hurry back." Nagisa used his free hand to shelter the cup as he hurried up the stairs and back into the room where the girl was lying down.
He flicked some of the water at her face, it didn't seem to do anything. Banging rang through the floor. "Sorry about this." Nagisa splashed the remaining water on to her, getting her shirt wet in the process She started to stir and her eyes opened slowly revealing blue eyes.
"What happened." She slowly sat up and tried to take in her surrounding before noticing the blue-haired boy. "Who are you? Where am I?" Her eyes were full of fear.
"My name is Nagisa Shiota. I wish I could tell you where we are, but I'm not really sure either." Psychotic laughter rang out. "Oh yeah, and there is a murderer chasing after us." The girl's eyes widened in fear. "Ah, don't worry the elevator is in this room, I justed wanted to make sure you wer-"
"STUPID FLOOR!" Nagisa was cut off by close shouting.
"Hey, come on we have to go!" Nagisa grabbed the girl's hand and headed towards the elevator and pushed the up button. The elevator doors started slowly opening. Nagisa pulled the girl inside and slammed the close button as the bandaged killer came into view. He ran towards the door and the girl ducked behind Nagisa. The doors shut just before the killer's scythe made contact with the door.
Nagisa sighed and turned around towards the girl. "I guess we're in this together now. What's your name?" The girl looked at him. "My name is Rachel."
