CHAPTER 12

HOSPITAL HORROR

Later at Dark's base, Karu was with another demon that had white hair, white eyes, and snow white skin wearing a necklace with a white jewel in it. They were looking out the window until Satar came into the room.

Satar rushed in the room in panic, "Brother! Brother!" He shouted.

Karu sighed and turned to him, "Back so soon, Satar? I hope you killed every one of those weaklings."

Satar started to sweat, "...Well not all of them, but two out of five ain't bad."

Karu took one of his swords and held the blade up to Satar's neck, "You were suppose to kill all of them, idiot!"

The white haired demon tried to break up the fight, "Karu no, don't hurt him. I'm sure he didn't mean it."

Karu sighed and put his sword back behind him, "You speak like a mindless fool, Ker but if he wants to be worthy of Lord Dark he must be strong and loyal."

Ker then looked around Satar's neck and didn't see his necklace, "Satar, what happened to your necklace?"

Satar's eyes widened, "My necklace is gone! That purple guy must've knocked it off me while we were dancing."

"You were dancing?" Ker asked stupidly.

Karu was annoyed by his stupidness, "Ker, shut up." He had his attention on Satar. He put his hands on his hips, "You do know that, that necklace is a symbol of our kind right?"

Satar nodded.

"Well get it back and finish off the rest of the Chaotix!"

"But that's what I wanted to talk to you about. The purple guy isn't dead yet, I heard he's in the hospital recovering from our battle."

Karu's eyes widened, "What! Finish him or don't come back you hear!" He began to leave the room, "Come on, Ker!"

The white haired demon followed Karu out the room.

Later that night at the hospital, Espio woke up from his two hour rest. The only reason he woke up was because he thought he heard a chainsaw noise outside his room. He didn't want to go out there, but he was curious. He put on his clothes and slowly walked out his room with his gun still in his belt loaded with nine bullets when it once held three more. He noticed there weren't any doctors or nurses in the long narrow hallway. He thought most of them had went home. When he turned to a corner surprisingly two bees had scared him causing him to draw his gun from his belt. He pointed the gun at the two bees.

The two bees screamed.

"Wait, Espio! Hold your fire! It's us Charmy and Michelle!"

Espio quickly put away his gun, "Guys? God I'm sorry, I thought you were that crazed chainsaw wielding demon."

Charmy shook his head, "Nope, just us."

"What are you two doing wandering the halls like this?"

"I thought I heard a chainsaw, so I woke Charmy. He told me about that demon man", Michelle had said.

"So you guys heard it too? I thought I was the only one."

Michelle nodded, "Charmy told me that, that demon is very dangerous. I have to admit I'm kinda scared."

"Don't worry, stay with me and you'll be okay", Espio said with a slight smile.

Michelle began to hear the chainsaw sound again. She looked down the dark hallway and noticed a huge figure approaching them slowly, "Is that one of the doctors?"

Espio looked as well. He heard the noise of the chainsaws getting closer. "That's not a doctor." He grabbed Michelle's hand, "Let's go!" He led Michelle down a different hallway with Charmy following them.

The dark figure began to run after them.

Soon Espio, Michelle and Charmy came to a dead end.

"Damn, a dead end", Espio said.

"You can say that again", Charmy said trying to add humor.

Michelle began to cough in her hand.

Charmy turned to her, "Are you okay?"

"I doubt it", a voice said behind them.

They turned around and saw Satar with an evil smile on his face.

"It's Satar!" Charmy shouted.

The demon then ran up to them with his chainsaws in a stabbing position, but they moved out the way causing him to stick his right chainsaw in the wall. The chainsaw was in the wall deep and Satar had a hard time getting it out.

That was their chance to run for it.

Espio, Michelle, and Charmy ran into an empty patient's room. They locked the door and put big heavy objects in front of the door.

Michelle started to worry, "Do you think that'll stop him?"

Espio shook his head, "Don't think so, but it should hold him off for a while.

"I'm scared."

Espio tried not to make matters worse, but he had no clue what to say to her, "I'll make sure nothing bad happens to you."

Michelle smiled a bit.

Charmy then screamed startling Espio and Michelle.

Espio quickly looked over to him, "Charmy, what is it?"

Charmy pointed to the floor shaking in fear.

Espio looked on the floor and saw a corpse of a man with different parts of his body cut out.

Michelle screamed as well and started to cry, "Oh my god, it's one of the doctors..." she said as she was sobbing.

"He...killed them...he killed all the doctors...damn that demon", Espio said as he clinched his fists.

Then the door all of a sudden flung open. Satar made his appearance through the door, "Think you can get rid of me that easily?" He was ready to strike his chainsaws down into Espio once again, until Michelle stepped in front of him and sliced his right chainsaw off his wrist with the emergency axe.

Satar yelled in pain as his blood flooded out of his wrist and rapidly dripped to the floor.

Espio, Michelle, and Charmy then easily ran pass him and headed for the elevator to exit the hospital.

When they got to the exit, Espio struggled to open the door. "Damn it! The door's electronically locked."

Charmy had tears in his eyes, "We won't make it."

Espio grabbed a wheelchair and threw it towards the window beside the door.

The window shattered into little bits of glass.

He quickly jumped through the broken window with Michelle and Charmy following behind him.
