Disclaimer: Only own Amy

The officer sighed, shaking his head and turning away from the bloodbath in front of him. "Jesus H. Christ...." He muttered sadly. "How many are dead, Manny?"

"We've found 10 bodies so far," Manny answered, sighing. "God, those thugs showed no mercy..Men, women...Even a few kids..." The two sighed heavily again and started helping some paramedics move the bodies. Other officers were busy pushing people back, trying to keep a sense of order and peace in the chaos of the massacre.

All of a sudden, a paramedic jumped up and shouted. "Oh my god!! She's alive!!! We got a live one!!!" Everyone froze for a second as the information seeped in. "She's tore up badly...But, my God, she's alive!!"

A few minutes later, the voices mercifully stopped. Amy stood up, shaking almost violently, furiously wiping her eyes. Forcing herself to breathe normally, she picked up the brochure, putting it back in her pocket, and started to take out a cigarette. Her hands were still shaking, but she willed them to stop as she lit it and breathed in.

That was a bad one, she thought, wiping some dirt off her jeans and walking again. They're getting worse... She shook her head, trying to calm down, trying not to think about it. Instead, she focused on the fact that the air was getting colder and the fog was getting thicker. It made her nervous. The teenager sighed, looking around.

That long and winding path had widened and straightened. Amy could make out a few signs, one of them being the Silent Hill Ranch. She was tempted to try out the gates when she saw a few cars. But they looked as old and abandoned as the one she first saw. Flicking her cigarette bud away, she took a step toward the chain fence and tried it.

Locked.

Big suprise there.

She groaned and started to walk away when she heard something. She stopped, blinking, waiting. The sound came again, a dragging sound, like someone was dragging a leg. It was coming toward her slowly, and with it a strong smell, not at all pleasent. It reminded Amy of the remains of fire, and she wrinkled her nose.

"Hello?" She called, taking a step forward. "Is anyone there?" Nothing answered but the dragging. "Are you hurt? 'Cause if you are, I can't help, the gate's locked." A shiver shot up her spine as whimpering could be heard. But.....it didn't sound human....It sounded like--

Out of nowhere, a cruel howl broke the silence as something flung itself againist the fence. Amy screamed and fell backwards, hitting the ground a little hard. She groaned and sat up, her eyes wide with terror. There was another howl and a human scream, one that wasn't her own.

"HELP ME!!" It screamed, and she realized it was the thing that hit the fence. It was a person, but it was so bloody and mutilated that she couldn't tell what gender. Half of the face was gone, a gory mush, as an arm and half a leg was missing. It started banging on the fence and started screaming again as something rushed from the side, slamming into it.

The screaming stopped, though Amy started screaming when she realized what was happening. She scrambled backwards as the burnt smell grew stronger and stronger. The thing that attacked the person looked up, snarling. It looked like a dog, except it's body was burnt and black, the skin cracking and bleeding all over. It's eyes glowed a melevolent red, and it threw itself againist the fence, trying to get to her.

Amy whimpered, covering her mouth with her hand, supressing the screams that threatened to burst forth. She took a step back, her legs feeling like rubber as more of the hellish dogs appeared and started attacking the fence. Terrified, she turned and started running, hearing their roars of fury. They started following her behind the fence, snarling, growling, barking.

Some stayed behind, tearing apart the body before starting to dig under the fence. Amy looked behind in time to see a few slip under and shouted in terror, putting on another burst of speed. She could hear her hearted pounding in her chest, but she could almost heard the hounds ragged breathing as they shot after her. The fog started to thicken, making it harder and harder to see. She didn't watched where she was going and slammed her leg into the front of a car.

Pain instantly shot up it, freezing it up. She cried out, clutching where her knee hit it, and started limping. The hounds were close and gaining fast. Too fast. Those few seconds that she was forced to stop were all they needed. Snarling, one lept forward, it's jaws wide open. It connected with her side, ripping her open but unable to inflict a mortal wound.

She screamed in pain and fear, punching its head hard. It yelped, letting go, its muzzle covered in blood. Amy ran on, using nothing but pure adrenaline to keep going. She could feel her side bleeding, could feel it running down her side, and she started getting sick to her stomach.

"Shit!!" She cried when she saw two cars parked horizontally, blocking the path. There was no way around them, and the dogs were gaining fast. Her leg was started to unstiffen, though it still hurt like hell. She grit her teeth, holding her side and jumping. Her knee hit the hoods of the car painfully, but she was able to scramble over, leaving a blood trail.

The dogs started barking and howling, jumping on the hoods of the cars and licking the blood. But Amy kept running, her lungs on fire, her side on fire, everything hurting. It was only when she was sure that they weren't following her that she dared to slow down, stopping suddenly, her energy drained. She again fell to her knees, coughing painfully, wiping some of the blood away.

"Oh God.." She whispered, pulling her hand away from her side and staring at the blood. She looked down, staring at the deep gash and paling. All of a sudden, she felt sick, and put her hands on the road, throwing up violently. She was dimmly aware of footsteps coming toward her as dizziness hit her hard and blackness suddenly overtook her.
