Chapter III: Explanations
"Yeah, about all this that I'm about to tell you. It's not pretty." Ash said.
"We know son. But neither are some of the other things you've done." Ash's dad said back to him. Ash's mom and Sheila both gave him and Ash a questioning look.
"Okay, we're done with that... Look, over the past few years I've been hunted down by things. You probably met them last night. It all started when Scott, Linda, Shelly, and Cheryl went up to the woods back in '83? The Tennesee trip?We accidentaly woke up these spirits that posessed them all and killed them. I was the only one that survived. Something just like it happened when I was up in a cabin about seventy miles from here."
"The electrical storm three years ago wouldn't have anything to do with it?"
"Yeah... That was it." Ash said. "Anyway, I was thrust into the 1300s where I met Sheila here. There I defeated an army of the dead and returned home. Then everything was peaceful for about three years untill I started having these blackouts. I went to destroy the source of my problems and the army showed up again with Sheila as a hostage. I managed to save her and the rest of the knights that were transported here."
"But honey, that dosen't exlain your hand." Ash's mom asked.
"Yeah... thats a funny story. To sum it all up, I was infected with something and it turned my hand against me. I had so saw it off with this chainsaw." Ash said. His parents sat there and stared at him for a long time.
"Okay then. Well, it dosen't top your senior prom, but I believe it." Ash's dad said. "Sheila, I'm Ash's father Brian." He said extending his hand to shake.
"1300's dad..." Ash said.
"Oh, yeah, sorry."
"And I'm his mother Joan. It's lovely to meet you." Mrs. Williams said.
"It's wonderful meeting you too." Sheila said smiling.
"You guys seem to be taking this better than I expected. Are you okay?" Ash asked, taking his parents reactions as a sign of something.
"Never better son. After last night, I'm surprised I don't come join you next time the things come around."
"I just call them 'deadites' dad. It's a hell of a lot easier."
