Well, I guess I'll just be saying that it all still remains the same till I enter in new characters I guess haha.

Chapter 3: The Meeting

The sounds of birds are heard amongst trees outside Kevin's room. A stagnate smell floats about the room, giving it a slight nauseating feel. Kevin walks out of the small bathroom prepared for the day. Walking over to the bedside phone, picking it up, he dials for information. A dial tone picks up and an automated voice answers.

"Please enter the name of the town you are requesting.", the voice politely asks.

"Silent Hill.", said in a most non charismatic voice.

"Please state name of person or name of location.", still in it's most unhuman voice.

"Ray Kirkland, please.", this time in a more soothing voice while thinking of all the times they spent together when they were little.

"Hold please while we locate the number.", a beeping noise begins to sound as Kevin holds the phone up to his ear.

"The number," an actual woman's voice comes over the phone, "you have requested is 1503-339-5068."

"Thank you.", Kevin goes to place the phone on its stand.

As soon as it almost reaches it's base a loud shrill arises from the speaker of the phone. "He...help m...me! Wh...ere am... I? I'm... so scared... someone please... find me. My.... my name is Jonathan.....Ki...", the line goes dead. A defining silence fills the room, Kevin's heart begins pounding once more. He drops the phone to the ground as his hands begin to shake violently. Pounding on the ground another voice comes over the phone this time with a most angry voice, "You... you Kevin will... will die. It has been foreseen... it will be at the hands of..." the phone dies once more. Kevin grabs the phone and slams it on the base with so much force its knocks a small book out from underneath.

A knocking sound comes from his door. Kevin stands up, still a little startled from the phone, he goes and answers the door. "No ones here?", looking baffled, he looks up and down the hallway hoping to see someone, no one is there though. Kevin notices something white with red on it and something gray; he looks down seeing a bloody note and a hand gun. "Wh... what the hell could have left this here, Jonathan?" Picking up both gun and note to read; "DAD'S GUN!", the white paper written with blood and coated in blood spots says. Throwing the note to the floor and jabbing the gun in his pocket he runs back into his room, the door shutting behind him.

Grabbing his coat he rushes out of the room, slamming it behind him. Hustling down the hall, down the stairs, through the lobby, out to the front porch of the hotel. Stopping to take a breath, "Could that have been real? No way, it couldn't be. There just isn't any way that could have been.", he thinks to himself as he begins walking down the front path. He turns to look back a the hotel as he nears his car. 'That fog," a dark grey fog begins rolling in off the lake, coating the hotel," its getting dense out here. I should be careful." Getting in his car he starts it up and begins driving off down the road into town.

Stopping at a local gas station to fill the car up, Kevin sees a pay phone. Hoping it wont bark out random sentences like the one at the hotel, he inserts a few coins. Dialing Ray's number into the phone a voice picks up on the other line.

"Hello?", the male voice asks.

"Is this Ray?, Kevin replies politely.

"Kevin? Is that really you Kevin? It is me, Ray!", the voice exclaims loudly.

"Yeah. Hey,speaking with a happy note in his voice, is that old café still there in the old part of Silent Hill?

"Yeah, it is, Kevin. Let me guess, able to predict what his brother will say, we'll meet there? How about in 30 minutes?"

Laughing aloud,"Sure... little brother. Bye.", hanging up the phone, Kevin walks back to his car.

Thirty minutes later, Kevin parks his car outside the café. Getting out, he looks around and notices the fog thickening through out the town. Pushing the glass door open, the bell atop the door rings and the waitress at the counter looks up at him entering. Glancing quickly form wall to wall at all the people eating, drinking coffee, or just talking amongst themselves, Kevin cant spot his younger brother anywhere. "Hey," a voice shouts out form the back wall, "Kevin." Turning to see a relatively happy man in the back; its Ray.

Kevin walks over to the table with a huge smile on his face. "Hey Ray," sitting at the at skinny, raven haired, blue eyed boy's table, " how are you?"

"I'm great. What about yourself?", asking with the same happy smile he had when he was little.

"Everything's good here. Well,"a face of most concern covers up the his former facial expression, "actually there is one thing. I had a dream... well, its really wasn't a dream it was more like a night terror. It's been plaguing me all day; and what I heard on the phone after I got your number from information; and then with the door. I'm wondering if I might be going crazy.

"What kind of dream? What about the phone? And what happened at your door?", the more concerned brother probes.

"Well," Kevin puts his hands over his face," the dream I'd rather not talk about; but I will say it was about you and Jonathan. Then the thing with phone, it was telling me I was going to die and I also head Jonathan's voice from when he was little. He was saying he needs help and that he's afraid. After that happened my door was knocked on and I went to open, but no one was there except for a blood written note and a pistol. The note said "DAD'S GUN!"."

"Do you have the gun and the note?", says the now shocked Ray.

"Yes... I do. I have the gun but left the note", replies Kevin.

Ray pulls a map from his coat pocket, "Here I have this for you. It's a map; figured you could use it."

"Have you... by chance heard from Jonathan?", Kevin asks taking the map from Ray's hand.

"No, I haven't.", resting his hands back on the table," The last I heard from was that he was being adopted by the Silent Hill Smile Support Society. They take orphaned kids in and give a place to live at a place called Hope House. But I've heard bad things about that place. It seems the locals around that area have been hearing strange things like chants, screams, and all sorts of strange things. It's said that Hope House is really a secret resting place for a cult.

"Ray... I'm going to find Jonathan even if it kills me. I'm getting a really bad feeling about being here, but will you help me?, Kevin asks.

"Hell yeah! Anything to free our older bro. Hey, before that fog gets any thicker lets go to my house ok?", replies blue eyed kid.

"Sure.", the two stand up and precede out of the café.

Standing out side Ray's house on Levin St., the two look around at the people walking their animals down the street. The fog begins to get thicker up and down the street. 'This strange fog has been coming into town these past couple of weeks, but nobody knows as to why. Plus there are these sightings of strange looking people in cloaks in the town. Oh yeah, if you need any help, like if im not here, go to my neighbor, Mr. Gordon. He's a really nice guy. Now lets go in.", Ray turns to the door unlocking the house with his house key. The door opens slowly with and eerie squeaking sound.

Entering the house, walking down the front hall into the kitchen, the two sit down at the table by the bar counter. " I keep getting this feeling that I'm being watched but I don't know by who. It's a really funny feeling, you know?, Kevin looks at the bar and at the three glasses positioned in a straight line on the counter.

"Yeah, I do," looking towards the bar as well,"and it's happening since this fog came into town. Hey, I'll get us something to drink." Ray stands up and walks to refrigerator behind the bar counter. Pulling out two bottled drinks and walking back to the table he hands one to Kevin.

"I know where Hope House is, but I haven't the slightest as to how to get in.", stating while he sits back down and opens his drink.

"We'll figure that one out later. How about this, I'll come back here at 8:00 tonight. We can then drive out there examine the place ok?", Kevin stands up, drink in hand and waves good bye to Ray. As Kevin is half way down the front hall Ray stops him, "Hey, Kev you be carful ok." Kevin turns around gives his brother a thumbs up. Walking out the door he gives one last good bye wave before getting in his car and driving off. "I hope we can find you Jonathan, and I also hope that your alright.", thinking to himself as he watches Kevin drive off.

Kevin pulls into the near by parking lot of the hotel, getting out he then walks up to the front porch of the hotel. "This may be a fierce fight to find him, but I have to.", thinking to himself he walks through the front double doors of the hotel.

That's Ch 3, I know not very suspenseful, but Ch 4 will more than cover up the lack of horror Ch 3 had.
