Author's Note: Sorry for the delay, everyone! Okay, I'm doing this for the reviewer who asked that Random Friend get a name. Hope you enjoy it! Oh, and here's a description of what the characters look like:
Katie- Really long, wavy, dark brown hair and gray eyes.
"Random Friend"- Short, straight black hair and brown eyes.
Disclaimer: You know the drill-don't own Silent Hill.
Chapter Two
The Name Game
"Everybody sing the Silent Hill song!" Katie chirped cheerfully, at the top of her lungs, as she skipped down the street.
Beside her, poor Random Friend grumbled. When she had went through that stupid hole, she had somehow ended up in some creepy ghost town-which Katie insisted was Silent Hill. "Must you sing that annoying song!"
"Oh, don't be such a grouch, Random Friend-we're in Silent Hill!" she threw her arms up as she said this.
"For the last damn time, my name is not 'Random Friend'! It is Maria!"
"You're right!" Katie gasped. "It is Maria!"
Maria smiled. Finally, I am free! No longer shall this idiotic, over-obsessed Walter Sullivan fangirl call me Random Friend! At long last, I have a true name! but when she turned around, the poor girl nearly fainted.
Katie was standing a few feet away, talking to a young woman with short blonde hair that was dyed red at the tips. She wore a revealing, long-sleeved, magenta-colored top and a leopard-print mini-skirt, and long black boots. There was a small tattoo of a reddish butterfly on her stomach.
"Look, Random Friend-it's Maria from Silent Hill 2."
Maria let out a frustrated scream. The "other" Maria gave her a weird look. "Man, what's with your Random Friend?"
That did it. Something snapped inside Maria. She pulled out a letter opener and ran at the "other" Maria. "DIE!"
"What the hell!" Maria quickly pulled out her trusty revolver and shot her.
5 minutes later…
"That WITCH!" Maria screamed.
"It's not THAT bad!" Katie said with a smile.
Maria gave her a deadly Look. "NOT THAT BAD! There is blood spurting out of my head like a geyser!"
"But you don't seem to be dying from it!" that was true. Maria had been completely soaking the pavement for the past five minutes. It was freaky and disgusting to look at, but she felt perfectly fine. Must have had something to do with their hellish surroundings.
"Still, it's not exactly comforting, you know."
"Okay! First, we'll get you a band-aid, and THEN we'll go look for Walter!" having decided that, she skipped of down the street and resumed her earlier singing. "Come one, friends-let's sing along!"
Maria sighed. "Now I realize why so many people in this damn town committed suicide…"
ANOTHER five minutes later…
"Vincent! Vincent! He's such a good boy-"
"Look!" Maria cried with a new enthusiasm, happy at a chance to interrupt that cursed song her companion was singing for the THIRD DAMN TIME. "It's a hospital! There's bound to be bandages in there, right!"
"Yay!" without a moment's hesitation, Katie runs into Brookhaven Hospital.
"Would you stop running off!" Maria cried, once again hurrying after her.
The two girls walk-actually, Katie's skipping again-down the dark, deserted hallways, until they come upon a door labeled "Storage Room". Below that, There are bandages in here, is written.
"In here, Random Friend!" Katie flung open the door.
"I told you, my name is-" before she can get the rest of the sentence out, a bunch of monsters come screeching out of the room, causing her to scream. One of the monsters pounces on her and knocks her to the ground. "HELP!"
"I'll save you, Random Friend!" Katie pulls a letter opener out of her pocket. "Prepare to die, in the name of love and justice!" she let out a fearsome battle cry, and started poking at the monsters. After a few hours, they were all gone.
Maria didn't say a word, she just got up, went in the storage closet, and spent the next few minutes bandaging her head. When she went back into the hall, she saw that Katie was talking to a grotesque-looking nurse.
"You're back, Random Friend!"
This time, Maria didn't even bother to correct her. "Who's that?" she asked in a tired voice.
Katie smiled. "Her name is Maria."
"NOOOOOOOOOOO!" she facefalls and starts crying. "Why? WHY!"
The nurse and Katie exchange a look, then shrug their shoulders. "Guess there's only one thing to do now…" they say with a smile. "Everybody sing the Silent Hill song! Come on, friends-let's sing along!"
Someone, please, kill me… Maria moans and hits her head off the floor.
"Everybody sing the Silent Hill song! Come on, friends-let's sing along!"
Afterthought: Again, sorry it took so long. I wanted to finish this before the end of class and the weekend, so I hope it doesn't sound too rushed. Please review and give me your thoughts! Also, will someone PLEASE read my fic in the "Clock Tower" section? It is called Forever Shattered, and NO ONE has reviewed it yet. Thanks!
