The Ring: She Never Sleeps

"No!"

Mage ran away, down twisted halls and corridors, not knowing where she was headed. She hurried upstairs, hoping she would catch up to the other half of the group.

(Upstairs)

Shana Ann tried to make out the words on the paper. She squinted.

"Leave now. Hurry. Leave. Turn away."

Shane stood pale on the other side of the room. Everything was the same, right down to where he was standing in the dream.

He heard a noise.

It was like fingers on a chalkboard, screeching, slow. Shane gulped and shook as if he were cold.

He noticed something on the wall next to him.

Three long, deep scratches.

With fingernails lodged into the wall.

Shane couldn't help it. He screamed, and jumped away from the wall.

The door slammed shut at that moment, locking Shane, Shana Ann, and Sandra trapped.

Sandra ran to the door.

"It's locked!" she whispered.

"No." Shane's voice was high pitched, almost not his own.

Shana Ann pulled at the door handle, trying to get it open. She would not let what happened to Edd happen to her.

She wouldn't.

(On the stairs)

Mage hurt her ankle running up the stairs.

She was too afraid to notice the pain. When she reached the top of the stairs, all she saw was an empty hallway.

"Shane? Sandra? Shana Ann?" she called.

Screams answered her.

"Let us out!"

It was coming from the far corner.

Mage swallowed and ran to the door. She reached the handle and twisted it. Nothing happened. The door didn't open; was it stuck?

Mage twisted and pulled, but to no avail.

She couldn't open it.

She heard something behind her.

"Camo? Steve?" she whispered fearfully. Nobody was there.

Mage slowly backed against the wall, tears running down her face.

She sobbed, and pulled her knee's to her chest.

"Don't hurt me, please don't hurt me, please don't hurt me." She whispered over and over.

(Inside the door)

"Mage?" Shana Ann called. She knocked on the door. Nobody answered.

She heard a soft crying and whimpering behind the door.

Then a scream.

"NO! NO! NO!" over and over and over.

"NO!"

"NO!"

"NO!"

"NO! NO!"

(Outside the door)

"NO!"

Mage screamed and clawed at the door. Her fingernails fell out, and her fingers began to bleed. She knocked on the door with such force that dents were made. Her pinky fingernail feel into her lap.

"PLEASE! NO!"

(Inside)

"MAGE! What's happening?" Shana Ann and Sandra were both sobbing, and Shane was near it. The three huddled close together far on the other side of the room. The could do nothing.

"Why?" Sandra whispered, tears dropping down onto her lap, nose running. "Why us?"

"Why anybody." Shane whispered back.

"Why did that thing choose to hurt people? Why? WHY! WHY!" Shana Ann screamed, tears running down her face.

"Why?"

(To the second group)

"What was that?"

Camo heard screams; they sounded like Mage's.

"I really don't wanna find out." Steve answered.

The room they were in was dark, and smelly. There was scraps of food on the ground, and blankets. No furniture, just junk.

Steve turned on a light. It was a relief to finally see the room clearly.

They heard more screaming upstairs.

"We have to see who it is." Camo insisted. He was beginning to feel uncomfortable in this room.

"Okay." Steve agreed.

(Flashback)

"Round and round, The world is spinning, When it stops, It's just beginning, Round and round, The world is spinning, When it stops, We all die."

The little children had enjoyed that song; enjoyed it until the strange things began happening.

Everyone was dieing.

Everyone will die.

Everyone will see the signs.

And you know what?

You'll see the signs too.
