Silent Hill: Christine's Story
Chapter One:
"You are now Entering Silent Hill"
Christin opened her eyes slowly. She could feel the cool gust of wind at her face, drying her eyes.She closed them quickly, straying away from the wind's sting. She grimaced slightly. Her head was throbbing. She was freezing. How did she get there?
Trying to open her eyes once again, she took in a deep breath. The wind blew, but her eyes remained opened. She looked around at where she lay. She was laying on a road.. A highway most likely. It was night, and she could hear a fresh wave of water hit land. Where was she?
She slowly sat up, looking into the night's sky. No stars were above her. The entire sky covered by blackened clouds. She could barely see anything. The only light to guide her were the three street lights around her. She looked down the road, seeing a large sign near a street light. Squinting at it, she tried her best to read the letters. Yet, her head grew light headed and she was forced to shut her eyes. Lowering her head, she tried her best to remember everything. 'My name is Christine... I was... I think I was...'
She couldnt remember. Her name was the only thing that had came quickly to her mind. She opened her eyes, to see her tattered clothing. No wonder she was so cold. Her shit was torn, a long gash across her stomach. She ran her fingers across it, wiping away bits a dried blood. She looked at her legs, scratches were all about them. Her eyes bagen to water at her confusion, 'How did I get here?'
She stood slowly, looking into the dark night. As she took one step forward, a searing pain spread through her head. Placing her hands over her eyes, she screamed. She could hear yells and screamed echoing in her mind. She saw flashes of people running, but couldnt make out who they were. She screamed again as the images and sounds faded. She opened her tearful eyes.
Few tears fell to the ground as she tried to clear her blurred vision. She coughed, laying her hands at her sides. "What was that?" She asked herself.
She wiped her watery eyes and wrapped her arms around her chest.
She had no idea what had happened to her. No recollection... Nothing. She had no idea where she was or what had happened. The pain that had went through her head was scaring her.
A sigh escaped her lips. She walked forward, slowly each step she took, she felt the ground move with her. She eyed her scenary, trying to make out anything she remembered. She didnt. She looked ahead, eyeing the sign. The closer she was to the sign, the more clearer it grew.
Eventually she stood in front of it, staring at its words.
"You are Now Entering Silent Hill"
She placed her hand on the cold sign, reading it over and over. "Silent Hill..." She whispered.
The Town's name seemed familiar to her. She lowered her forhead on it, "Maybe I can find help here."
"We've been waiting for you..."
She shot up as an eerie voice spoke, the words skidding across the air like a train wreck. And that wreck, hit her side with fear. She wrapped her arsm around herself tighter, "Whose there?"
No one answered her. She sighed, looking around. "Jesus..." she whsipered.
She walked forward, looking up at the sky. Still darkness. Passing the sign that gave her slight hope, she walked down the deserted road. 'Why arent there any cars?' she thought. From the light of a dimming streetlight ahead, she saw a small path. She looked at the path, then back at the road. She didnt know where the path was going to take her, yet, she knew the road would go on forever with no life entering or exiting. She sighed, turing towards her left, following the new dirt path.
