Fear.
Was what she was about to face. She lay on the back seat of her cousins Mercedes looking out the window at the street beyond her. On the driver's seat sat her cousin, Erin and next to her was her own sister, Maria. Erin kept an eye on the road while Maria looked at the map and pointed directions.
"We should go here." Maria said, pointing at some place on the map. Erin shook her head; "There's a faster road that takes us to our destination, think of it as a short cut. I don't think Halley back there could take it any longer." She said. Maria only shrugged, folded the map and threw it behind her shoulder, hitting Halley's out stretched arm before falling on her.
"Hey! Watch where you throw that map!" She shouted from the back seat, her sister turned around grinning, "Sorry sis." Halley rolled her eyes and continued to chew her gum while looking out the window.
It started raining outside, pretty heavily too. And the fact that they were driving at night and on the hillside really didn't help either.
"I told you to take that left!" Argued Maria. Erin just shrugged, "Whatever." She mumbled, which made Maria sigh in defeat and sink back in the couch.
There was no one on the street, not a single soul or machine or whatever! No, wait. Halley thought as she spotted a wheelchair and behind it, was a young man!
Halley quickly sat up and looked out the window, but all she could see was the wheelchair.
"Something wrong Halley?" Asked Erin looked at her from the mirror. Maria shot her an angry glare. "Keep your eyes on the road!" She screamed. Erin quickly watched the road as Maria rolled her eyes and looked back.
"You saw the wheelchair, didn't you?" She asked. Halley nodded. "That was freaky, and you know what the freakiest part was? I actually saw a guy out there!" She said. Maria raised an eyebrow, shrugged, and sat back in her seat.
Her eyes quickly widened as she saw to her horror the road cut. "Stop the car Erin! Stop the damn car!!!!" She yelled. Halley quickly turned her attention to the road in front of her. "Oh my god Erin! Stop the car!!!"
"I'm trying! I'm trying!"
"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!"
"ERRRIIINNN!!!"
"HALLLEEEYY!!"
"MAAAAARIAAA!!!"
Screams filled the car as it fell down the hill. Unfortunately for Erin, she never stopped the car in time.

Where am I?She woke in a mess, her hair falling down her face; pieces of glass were all over her hair and on her right and on her left. Her upper body was in the front part of the car, while the rest of her was also in a mess. This day was a total mess.
When I find Erin I'm SO going to kill her.
She tried lifting her body, but it hurt to even open her eyes let alone lift her whole body!
"Don't move, stay still…stay still…"
The voice that she heard lulled her to a deep slumber.
~*~
Still…where am I?She woke again in a comfortable bed, her hair now combed and held back in a braid. And when she opened her eyes, she found herself in a bedroom of some sort, and next to her, was a chair, and on the chair was boy! The same boy she saw while she was still in the car.
"Hmm, you're awake then?" It seemed that he spoke. Halley fixed her eyes on him, she greeted by warm green eyes and a charming smile.
"Who…are you? Where am I? How did I get here? Why…" She cut off by the mysterious boy holding his hands up in a gesture to slow down.
"Whoa! Whoa! Slow down! I'll
answer all you're questions. Who am I? I'm Gabriel Stone, I'm from around this
town, and it's called Silent Hill. There seems to be weird stuff happening here,
but I won't get into that."
"What do you mean…weird?" She asked.
Gabriel shrugged, "Well, my sister ran away with my gun three days ago, I wonder why…and she's only seven."
Halley sat up, "I'm Halley Foster. I came with my cousin and sister for a vacation to some place that isn't Silent Hill. My cousin, Erin, crashed the car and…"
Gabriel cut her off, "Your cousin's name is Erin? You mean the psycho girl who tried to kill me?"
Halley resisted the urge chuckle, "Well, I think that would be Erin. What'd she do? Jump on you and beat you up?"
Gabriel shook his head, "She had a gun, my gun, the one my sister took. Thankfully she forgot to reload it."
Halley's eyes widened, sure Erin was a psycho who threatened the death of many people for her own selfish deeds, but with a gun?
"Where'd you find her?"
"Huh?"
"My cousin, Erin, where'd you see her? Why'd she try to kill you?"
Gabriel shrugged again, "I saw her in the school, and she said something about a girl who tried to kill with the gun. She said that she had to let her use up all her bullets until she could snatch the gun from her and run away. I think that she was my sister, but my sister wouldn't do such a thing."
Halley shook her head, "You still didn't answer the rest of my question." She studied his features again; he wore casual stuff. Jeans and white T-shirt.
Like him…"Well, when I saw her it was like this…"

((Flash Back))
A mysterious girl with short black hair wearing black leather pants, violate colored shirt, and black a black leather jacket. In her hands, she held a gun pointed at him. His eyes widened and he backed away raising his arms in surrender as she came closer.
"Who are you? What the hell's going on in this town!?" She demanded.
Gabriel shrugged, "I…I don't know. I'm as confused as you are." He studied the gun in her hand, "That's…that's my gun!"
She held her gun up and put her finger on the trigger, "Shut up! I saw a little girl back there acting like if she was a zombie or something! She tried to shoot me with this gun! What is wrong with this town? Do all adults in this town keep their weapons close to their children?" She screamed at him when saying those words.
Gabriel felt guilty, "It's my fault; I kept the gun in a place my sister could reach. But the reason she was acting like a zombie is beyond me. What'd you to her?" He said, a bit of concern in his tone when he asked that question.
"You trying to open a conversation with me?! If you want to know, she freakin' scared the hell outta me! When I talked to her, all she did was mumble something about a guy named Gabriel…" She explained.
Gabriel raised his hand, "That would be."
"Excuse me?"
"Gabriel; that would be me." He said a tad of shame in his tone. The young woman took a step foreword and lowered her gun.
"Gabriel…" She said, "Well, my name is Erin. I came here with my two cousins on a way to a place that isn't Silent Hill." She studied his features. "You know…" She began, "You look kind of my…cousin. He was a boy, he looks kind of like you, the same hair, the same style of clothing, the same body built, tall and thing, but…your face; he doesn't look like that."
Gabriel blinked, "Is his name…Andy Foster?" He asked.
It seemed that his name only triggered this young woman; she raised her gun and pulled on the trigger. All Gabriel could do was shield his head from anything that would occur.
Click"What the!?" Erin said as she examined the gun in her hands, "Shit! It's not loaded!" She threw it away and dived at Gabriel, who was by that time recovering his pose.
"Hey! Get off of me! Please!"
"Tell me about Andy!" Erin yelled holding him from the collar of his shirt using her legs to pin him down.
Gabriel tried to breathe; she wasn't as light as she looked. "Ok! Ok!" He said trying to catch his breath, "Just get off of me! I can't breath!"
Erin got off and took hold of the gun again, this time; she reached for her pocket for some handgun ammo and reloaded it. "I'm waiting." She said impatiently.
"Well, this guy, Andy. I saw him here about a year ago. He said something about three girls crashing here by mistake of a psycho girl, which I guess is you." She glared at him; he cleared his throat and continued. "He told me to look for them and warn them about this place. So, here I am, warning you about this place. Please leave; there are monsters here! Like demons! Trying to kill us all! It's a miracle the same didn't happen to me…I won't say the same about my sister though.
"Get away from here…" She yelled at him. Gabriel looked at her with an expression that said 'huh?' "Get away from me! Now! Or else I'll shoot! I'm not kidding!"
Without hesitation, the green eyes boy broke into a run and sprinted away. This was defiantly not what he had in mind.

Halley's eyes were wide and full of hope. "Did you just say…Andy is here?" She asked.
Gabriel nodded, "He also said something else. 'If the girls don't want to leave, tell them that I'm in a place only one of them knows of.'"
"Only one of us knows of? What's gone wrong with my brother!?" Halley screamed. She quickly got to her feet and ran down the stairs. She could here Gabriel calling after her, saying something about a weird object down stairs, but she didn't care, she had to leave.
When she reached down the stairs, to her horror, she saw what Gabriel said about the weird object.
A dead body…
