"Where's that coming from?" Rachel asked.
"It sounds like it's coming from that room", Pythagoras points.
"That's the nurses' room. There's nothing much in there except uniforms and other stuff like needles."
Pythagoras moved closer towards the door. The sound got louder. It was as if someone was knocking on cabinets. Pythagoras reached for the handle and opened it.
Another Pyramid Head was inside. But this Pyramid Head was different. This Pyramid Head had a greenish cube for its head. Its outfit was also different from Pythagoras. Instead of having long sleeved brown stained shirt, this one wore black leather from head to toe and had huge chains tied around its arms. This Pyramid Head also was chained by the ankles. What it was doing now is feeding on a struggling Faceless Nurse, sitting on top of her, tearing off her uniform and limbs, devouring her slowly. It reached behind it to pull out the Faceless Nurse's leg and brought it towards the back of its head where a mouth appeared and bite it down hard. Blood splashed on the floor.
Both Pythagoras and Rachel knew what made the sound. It was the Faceless Nurse using her steel pipe to knock on the cabinets.
The Faceless Nurse was now a limbless corpse and without her uniform. The cubed Pyramid Head sense movement and got up. It turned around slowly while still holding on to its meal, revealing its main, huge, mouth still dripping with blood. Rachel was feeling very nervous.
"Who are you?" Pythagoras asked with his metallic voice coming out from his helmet.
"I'm known as Volume and I don't like to be interrupted during mealtime. I was having fun torturing this poor lady here until you come barging in. Can't I have peace?" came the reply.
Volume threw the body high enough and opened his mouth. The body dropped into his mouth before he chomped hard. The sound of cracking bones was heard. Volume caught sight of Rachel who suddenly felt scared.
"I see you have brought food for your fellow comrade. Not much to share around but she'll do."
Volume walked towards Rachel when Pythagoras lifted his wooden stake and blocked Volume.
"She is with me. You cannot have her."
"Don't be stingy Pyramid Head. I know that you want her all by yourself. At least let me have a taste." Volume was already licking his lips. He walked back and opened on of the cabinets and took out a bloody chainsaw. He pulled the string which made the chainsaw start to whirl. Volume smiled.
"Haven't you heard me!? You cannot have her and you can't eat her!" Pythagoras readied his wooden stake.
Without warning, Volume thrust his chainsaw deep into Pythagoras as it exited through Pythagoras' back. Blood splattered on Rachel's face. Pythagoras dropped his wooden stake as it rolled to in side.
"Pythagoras!" Rachel shouted. She gripped her steel pipe and raised it, only to be punched by Volume in the face. Rachel fell.
Pythagoras held the chainsaw still stuck into him and kneel down, groaning.
"If you won't share, then I will have to take her by force."
Leaving the chainsaw turned on and still in Pythagoras' body, Volume walked towards Rachel who was trying to get up.
"Lunch", Volume said as all sides of his cubed head opened their mouths.
Pythagoras pulled the chainsaw out of him. The pain was unbearable. He got up, still bleeding. It was only then he spotted this long stick with a wooden handle near the front. The back seems to be curved a little. Pythagoras grabbed it and head out. Holding the stick by the wooden handle, he raised it, ready to hit Volume at his head from behind. Rachel immediately knew what he was holding.
"Pythagoras, shoot him with the shotgun in your hand! Pull the trigger!"
Pythagoras looked dumbfounded. He doesn't know how to use firearms. Volume looked back to see Pythagoras fumbling with the shotgun.
"I haven't eaten someone like you before. But I would certainly enjoy it." Volume starts to change his direction and move towards Pythagoras. Rachel took the chance and used her steel pipe to whack Volume on the head.
A snap and a crack were heard. The snap was from the steel pipe breaking into half the crack came from Volume's head.
"Argh!" Volume clutched his head as blood starts to squirt out.
Rachel got up and ran towards Pythagoras and grabbed the shotgun from him. She pointed it to Volume's head.
"Food that fights back. This is a meal worth enjoying."
The shotgun blasted Volume out of the window. He fell to the ground. Clutching his bleeding head, he began to laugh.
"Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha! The pain! Caused by something I'm about to eat! This is really worth my time!"
Volume went to the nearest manhole, opened it and disappears down the sewers.
Pythagoras was still clutching his wound. Rachel took notice of him.
"We need to dress that wound. It looks serious."
She took Pythagoras' by the arm and placed it over her shoulder.
"There are some medical supplies around in the hospital somewhere", Rachel said as she carried Pythagoras back into the Nurses' room.
"Don't you think it would be silly to use modern day medicine treat this kind of wound on a demon?"
"It's worth a try. Other than that, I can't think of anything else", said Rachel as she placed Pythagoras down on the floor.
"You're wasting your time. Find me something to eat. I could replenish my strength by consuming something", Pythagoras said, sitting while leaning against the wall.
"That still means I have to leave you here and search for something, doesn't it?"
Pythagoras answered with a grunt. "How do you plan on doing that? You have nothing to defend yourself."
Rachel showed him the shotgun on her hand. "I'm surprise you don't know how to use this. This is a shotgun. Used more for close range combat. It's better than the steel pipe I had earlier"
"I don't even know what that is. But I guess that should be enough for you to protect yourself. But hurry back, I don't want to stay here too long", Pythagoras said. He grabbed his wooden stake and used it to pry the chainsaw out of his body. It came out with a sickening slop and more blood splattered everywhere. Pythagoras threw the chainsaw one corner with a clang.
"I will be back as soon as I can", Rachel said as she walked out and closed the door behind her.
"It sounds like it's coming from that room", Pythagoras points.
"That's the nurses' room. There's nothing much in there except uniforms and other stuff like needles."
