3. Erin
Ian and Erin, a.k.a. The doom and gloom twins, were working at the Build It! Store, putting items back on shelves that pinhead customers were too stupid to return themselves. Using a radio, Erin, a.k.a. Pip, was communicating with Ian, aka Zip. Picking up a pot, Erin was annoyed at having to work overtime to put everything back where they belonged. As Erin put down the pot, behind her, the gate that was locked, preventing access to the outside part of the door shook violently. Startled by the sudden sound, Erin dropped the pot and screamed. She turned around to see who it was, and saw that it was Kevin and Wendy from school. Walking towards the door, she complained,"You guys scared the shit out of me!" As Kevin and Wendy walked in, Wendy stated,"Get Ian. We need to talk to you immediately."
Ian McKinley was as happy as could be. He had been given the task of killing the pigeons in Build It! using whatever means possible as the pigeons were setting off the alarms at night. Using his diabolical mind, Ian thought of using a nail gun to kill the pigeons. With a nail gun in one hand, and a pack of nails in the other, Ian opened the ammo container and put them in, then smacked them all the way in and heard a click. He raised the gun commando style, and took aim at the pigeons. After three seconds, he fired three shots, missing all of them. The pigeons, startled by the sudden attack, flew away and out of Ian's reach. He cursed them, saying they were lucky. He then got a message from Erin saying Kevin and Wendy wanted to see him. He put the forklift in drive and drove to where they would meet.
Kevin and Wendy were following Erin, as they discussed their theory that Death was trying to kill everyone on the roller coaster. "Oh come on you guys. You can't seriously believe that now can you?" asked Erin. "It's true! We've showed you the pictures!" said Kevin. Suddenly, the lights started flickering on and off, on and off. Kevin and Wendy looked around in horror, fearing Death was about to go in for the kill. They were then distracted by a voice ahead of them at the end of the hall. It was Ian McKinley, messing with the light switch. "Oh. Oh? What's going on? It's crazy. It's something crazy," he said bursting out laughing. Erin fell to her knees from the laughter, remembering the expression on Kevin and Wendy's faces two seconds ago. Irritated, Wendy stated,"We're not going to feel sorry, or embarrassed just because we're trying to save you." "OK, fine tell us what you think is going to happen," said Ian, interested to hear Kevin and Wendy's theory that everyone was going to die. Wendy explained everything she explained to Erin. The roller coaster, the premonition, everyone dying, the pictures, by the time she was done Ian and Erin were holding onto each other so that they wouldn't fall on the floor laughing. Kevin and Wendy were aggravated that they were just making fun of them, and started walking to Erin like she was about to punch her in the face for making fun of her, when Kevin held her back. "Wendy, no.." Kevin whispered. Ian and Erin finally stopped laughing, and Ian responded. "Did you even hear yourself? You said that Frankie got off. That means that the camera wasn't there to derail the roller coaster, and that this is all a bunch of bullshit." "Well, maybe Death can improvise. If the roller coaster was supposed to crash, it would crash," said Wendy. "Well, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction, which starts chain reactions. So if Death was going to use the camera to derail the roller coaster quickly, and you reacted, it could react and find another way to crash it. But remember, this is all assuming that Death is a force, which I totally do not believe." On the wall opposite of everyone, a magnetic stick, used to pick up nails lying around places, pulled a screw out a wall that held a hammer up, causing it to fall off. The hammer landed on the switch of a forklift, and it was heavy enough so that it would turn it on. The forklift started driving forwards, and rolled over a bunch of chlorine containers, and made everything slippery. After a few seconds, the forklift was able to continue driving into a shelf, which knocked over another shelf with a box of wooden stakes.
Wendy looked at the floor, and noticed that everyone's pants were moving a little from a mysterious, cold, terrifying wind. She looked at the picture of Ian and Erin once more, and looked above Ian. A box of stakes was above him, just like in the picture. "That, there!" she yelled. Just then, a forklift hit the wall of the shelf behind Ian, and the stakes fell. Wendy jumped and knocked Ian out of the way of the stakes, and Kevin jumped over to protect Wendy from the contents of the shelves that were falling on everyone. Boxes, plywood, metal, and all sorts of other objects were falling on Ian, Kevin, and Wendy. Meanwhile, Erin is staring in amazement as everything Wendy was preaching about was coming true. As more sheets of plywood fell, a shelf landed on plywood, which hit the edge of a stake with enough force to launch it into the air. It landed on a shelf, right in the way of a bunch of pigeons. Panicking, they flew away right into Erin's face. Scared and trying to protect herself, Erin guards her face with her hands and falls back as the pigeons fly into her. She landed on a box with a nail gun used by Ian on it, and hits the nozzle, activating it. The nail gun shoots out nine nails, each time making a staccato of FWWT! FWWT! FWWT! FWWT! FWWT! As it shot the nails into Erin's face. When the gun was depleted of nails, in front of it lay a dying Erin. Nails were poking out of her face, one of them being out of her forehead, another being out of her eye, which had slimy fluid all over it, another through her nose, two to the right of her face, which went through her wrist, holding her hand in the air. The rest were scattered throughout her face. Ian, Wendy, and Kevin looked up simultaneously and watched in horror as blood came oozing out of Erin's face. She made a whimper, and her head lowered and her eye closed. A picture landed to her left, which was the one depicting her death. A pigeon landed on it and started pecking at it, as Ian yelled,"No!" and looked at Wendy as if she was the cause of Erin's death.
