Chapter 2: That Misty Night.
Two people were walking down a highway road, long since abandoned, that led
to the town of Silent Hill. The two people, a man and a woman, were
carrying backpacks in which a flash, medical supplies, food, a few
handguns, and some ammo. The man wore a black clothe trench coat, a white
short sleeved t-shirt, brown pants, and black boots. The woman was dressed
in a red tank top, green light jacket, a blue short skirt, and black boots
that went up to her knees. They stopped when they reached the fog and took
their flashlights and handguns, .50 Eagles, and then continued on. The fog
thickened as they walked towards Silent Hill, then without warning the fog
became light enough for them to see where they were going to up to 10 feet.
When they reached the road that overlooked the lake and Silent Hill, they
stopped to look. "So this is it." The man said.
"Yeah."The girl said, sounding like she didn't fully believe it. "Well,
here goes nothing." She said as they continued down the road.
"Lets hope he is here when we get to that motel." The man said.
They walked for about 10 minutes, when they started to hear noises, low
growling and howling from the distance, from the woods.
"We'll need to take one of the paths in, then a row boat, Scarlet." The man
said. He pulled the map out of his pocket. "A few feet more and we're at
the path." The girl nodded, and turned onto the path with him. They moved
fast, but also slow enough for them to navigate the twisting path safely.
Their flashlights bobbed, casting eerie shadows, as they ran. They then
heard the howling again, and heard the patting of padded feet on the hard
dirt ground. The man stopped and turned, gun ready.
"Jason! Lets go! Don't be stupid!" Scarlet yelled.
"No! I'm going to kill them." Jason said. Then the first one came into view
and he fired three shots, the dog monster falling to the ground. "Remember,
this town brings out things we fear, even though that's true, it can still
hurt us. Now go! I'll catch up."
Scarlet nodded, turned and ran like hell as she heard more gunfire sound
behind her. She waited at the edge of the forest, afraid for Jason, afraid
for herself. Time passed slowly for her, until Jason came into view, he
looked unharmed and she sighed relief. "You ok?"
"Yeah." Jason said. "Lets get going to the Gathering."
She nodded and they left into the city, the moon setting a dismal looking
glow on the city as they headed towards their destiny. To Be Continued.
