When he opened his eyes again everything was blurry,he tried to focus, but his eyes hurt so bad that he shut them again. He just layed there grateful he was alive and that nothing worse had happened. Voices drifted into the room and Cody lay there listening.

"Sarah give the key to me please." a soft female voice demanded

"But Fransis, George said.." a little voice replied, it was the green girl he knew it for sure.

"You know very well that there is no George, do you want me to tell-"

"No!" Sarah cut her off, "Here take it." Cody assumed Sarah handed over the key and then ran off, because he heard little footsteps moving further away. Cody forced his eyes open and they began to water as they focused on the room around him, it was the same room he woke up in before everything went crazy. The door opened and Fransis, that platium blonde girl with the jade green eyes he beat up, walked in. She walked over and grabbed the arm that the burlap man had cut and looked it over.

"Is it hurting?" She asked

"No its fine." Cody replied

Cody had a million and one questions he wanted to ask, like why the hell was he here and how does he get out. He pulled himself up to a sitting postion and swung his feet over the side of the bed. Fransis was cleaning up the supplies she use to bandage his arm, when she turned to face him.

"You have questions." She said

"Yeah, I have questions." He began, "Why and how am I here and how do I leave?" He asked smugly.

"Silent Hill has it reasons for you being here, after all it brought you here, but you have to find out why, I can't tell you."

"You talk like this town is alive or something." Cody crossed his arms over his chest.

"It is, in a way."

"Can it show the furture, my future?" He asked thinking about the room he saw.

"Why do you ask?"

"I saw a room in the loony ward with a patient chart that said I was the patient."

"Silent Hill can show one of many possible futures, yes."

Cody grabbed his arm suddenly and winced with pain. Fransis turned back to the table and picked up to little white pills and hand them to Cody. Cody pushed them away.

"No, taking strange drugs is how I got and I won't make that mistake again."

"Strange drug?" she questioned, "This is Tylenol Cody." she held it out for him again, but he still wouldn't take it. He had a lot more questions, but some how he knew she couldn't or wouldn't answer them. He sat in silent trying to think of the right questions, his eyes wandered about the hospital room. It was normal now with clean white walls and title floors. The bed was clean, except for some blood from his wound, but there was a picture hung next to the door he hadn't noitced before. Three men stood together, the one in middle carried a huge sword and the others carried long spears. All three of them were wearing large pyramid shaped metal helmets, white stained robes, black boots and white gloves over their hands.

"Who are they?" cody asked pointing to the picture.

"The punisher and his servents." she replied.

"I saw the one in the middle, in the room just after I killed the burlap man."

"You did!" Fransis's eyes opened wide. "you saw the punisher, this one here?" she pointed to the guy in the middle, Cody nodded, "your sure?"

"Yes I'm sure!" Cody snapped, "why, what does that mean?"

"Cody the punisher is only sent after those who've done-" she stopped

"Done what!!"

"Really bad things." Fransis turned her back to him.

"Is he after me for beating you up?"

"No, you were suspose to do that, it would have to be for something else."

"You said he is sent, sent by who?" Cody was getting angry

"By God."

"Whoa, wait I was good Christian boy once and I don't remember any punisher in sunday school."

"Thats because this God is not of Christian origin, she comes from a much older religion."

"She?" Cody questioned.

"Yes 'She', this town was founded on that religion well over a hundred years ago and she controls this town now."

"How-" Cody started , but Fransis cut him off.

"Look you have to find out what you did before the punisher finds you, here take this." She handed him the key on the green yarn and some more bullets and a crumble piece of paper. She whispered something about not reading it untill he was far from the hospital. Cody stood up and headed to the door, he still didn't understand all of this, but knew the only to find out was in this town. He turned to say something to Fransis, but she was gone. Cody took a deep breath and left the room. The hospital seemed so quiet as he made his way to them emergency exit. He slipped the key into the lock and pushed the door open. He left the hospital without looking back.
