The Tormented
Part 1-The Darkness.
Everything was black.
have I gone blind?
Tim stayed still for a full minute before realising he was lying down on a stone floor.
He stood up and started to walk forward arms outstretched.
I'm blind aren't I!
He looked around and to his great relief saw a flashlight on the
ground, giving off a bright light and partially illuminating a mossy grey stone wall.
Phew its just dark…
Tim stepped forward and almost instantly recoiled.
Oh shit its dark!
He didn't have the shotgun, he didn't have any weapon at all!
He stepped towards the flashlight and something brushed against his leg. It let out a squeal of annoyance and ran off.
"oh no." he whispered.
He could hear small, soft, dry sounding footsteps .
It cant see me?
He stepped towards the flashlight just as a tiny dark shape darted past the light. He clapped his hands over his mouth to stop him screeching. He put his hand on the flashlight…
If I can see it and it cant see me… I can kill it even when im unarmed.
He picked up the flashlight and began to sweep it around the room.
Immediately he let out the loudest scream of his life.
All around him were Gray Children, dead, shrivelled looking 4-foot tall freaks walking around. they were gray, they had no features on their face but when he shined the light on them, they all squealed and put their little shrivelled arms over their "faces" , and he just managed to see how large the room was (very), how many Children there were (lots) and the exit door before they all swarmed around him, lashing out with their sharp little fingers.
Part 2-Locked
The Hammerhead fell to the ground and started twitching. Leon finished it off with a kick. The last howls of the hammerhead alerted two of its companions to jump down from holes in the to attack him. One of them swiped at him with the metal bar protruding from its head that Leon named them after. Leon stepped back and unleashed another shotgun shell into its chest.
damn! Down to my last 4 shells!
That shot killed it and its friend ran off through the door.
Leon had woken up on a bridge over an abyss and went through it into this maze of stone and moss, that was when the first three 'heads attacked. The next three (the ones he just fought) came after. Leon looked down the hallway. There was the door the 'head went through and there was also a left turn. Leon opened the door and looked in. There was a bottomless pit in the room, nothing more.
I think ill take that left turn.
There was another door just at the turn opening into a junkyard area. There were rocky walls surrounding the area and a mesh fence leading to some kind of path into a cave. There was another two caves that he could see.
I'll go with choice number 1.
He went to the nearest cave and strangely, there was a door inside it that block ed his way as soon as he entered. It was locked and there was a message written in blood on it.
To pass the door
death must die.
Leon tilted his head.
"So I have to kill death? That's hardly fair."
He went over to the next cave and sure enough there was another door which was locked. There was a kind of small spear or metal pole or something by the door and he picked it up, it wasn't too heavy.
" What the hell is this place anyway?" he exclaimed to no one in particular.
He finally decided to try the mesh gate. It creaked open easily.
" Finally… An opening door… And here's me about to try that pit in the other room…"
As soon as he entered he was pushed out and a man appeared in behind the gate, shutting it and locking it. Then he disappeared and the second cave's door burst open and two monsters walked in.
As soon as Leon saw these things he named them Warriors. They had bodies made of lumps of rotten flesh with spiked metal twisted around their entire bodies like some kind of sculpture. The Warriors carried spears. They both shambled towards him at once, stabbing out with the spears. That wasn't too hard to avoid but then they got into what one would call "ninja mode". They took fighting stances and started using the spears like fighting staffs, striking Leon and knocking him against the wall. He swung the spear at one of them, knocking the weapon out of its hand, and it began shambling again, swinging its spiked arms out wildly. He speared the other Warrior through the head and it fell over. He wasn't going to stamp on this one. He pulled out his shotgun and blasted the Warrior. The shrapnel bent the metal inwards and cut the flesh . The warrior groaned and fell back.
Chk-chk
KER-BLAM!
The warrior lay still. Leon slung the shotgun over his shoulder (it had a strap) and took a spear from the ground, then headed through the door.
Inside the room was a loooong stairs leading downwards.
Leon descended the stairs, fearing what might be at the bottom.
