That night, Matthew thought of what would happen in his dream. Would the things kill him, would he wake up, would he see Gilbert? His sleepy eyes closed gently as he yawned on final time...

Once again he woke up in the other world. The trees covered every where. Just like last night, he was in the same forest. Matthew looked for that knife from last time, when he found it he began to walk, trying to find this house. After a few minutes if walking alone in silence he heard something break.

He turned around only to be faced by a little boy wearing black. He was very pale. He had blonde hair, and deep green eyes. His face showed no emotion. He just stared at Matthew. He just watched him.

Matthew was confused, why was a boy out in the forest alone?" the boy turned his head to the side as if someone called him. That's when a lady she had black and red hair. She didn't have eyes, they were mesley holes. There was a grin on her face. They boys face was turned with horror, he ran. Matthew followed trying to save the boy. The lady just grinned even more and chased the green eyes boy. Matthew tried to grab him, only to see his hand went right through his body. Matthew stopped wide eyed. What was going on. The lady, without eyes flashed right past him, blowing his hair to the left. His breath was hitched as the scene unfolded right before his eyes...

The lady grabbed the boy. He was crying by now begging to be left down, so he could leave. She whispered four words into his eye, 'very very bad boy' after that. She opened her mouth to show teeth, sharp unnatural teeth, he screamed even louder. Then she bit down on his head, silencing him. Blood fell from her mouth as she licked it, loving the taste. Part of his brain fell onto the floor, it was a rosy pink color. A green eye rolled to Matthews shoe. The eye blinked. She then began to eat the boy the blood ozed out if her mouth and off the body which it no lingered looked like one, but she turned to look at Matthew. Matthew felt his blood run cold, she was watching him. She dropped the boy onto her long nailed hands and grinned up at Matthew. The Canadian felt like puking in her teeth you could see the remains of the once helpless boy. She cared the boy away into the dark vase woods. As she did so the wind blew a piece of paper out of the boys pocket. Gently and slowly Matthew picked up the paper, some parts bow had the other boys bloody. Opening it he read what it said.

Dear Matthew Williams,
Welcome

That was all it said. Matthew now felt really cold he pocketed the paper and ran in the opposite direction of which the crazy lady left. He ran as fast as his feet could rake him, that was until he ended up in a house. Gently praying that nothing would come out Matthew opened the door.

-line break-

Gilbert woke up, in the same room as he always did, in the beginning. He walked out the door and into the deserted village. Building were chipping and falling apart, everything was falling apart. Swallowing he walked slowly around trying to find the forest of that day the first day he meet that he came. Fear kept running through his body 'what if they find me' he thought. Suddenly he hear a crack, swiftly he turned around...nothing...then again another crack but to the opposite of the first. He turned around...nothing. Then another crack but right behind him.
A hot breath, went Down his spine. Gilbert closed his eyes tightly. He didn't want to know the thing that was behind him. He knew he had to look, he knew he had too! Sighing praying in his head he turned around, only to be meet with clear white eyes, and horrible black matter fur. The creature growled opening his mouth which held several sharp pointed teeth. His breath was now hitched, he went pale. Gilbert turned on his heel and ran the other direction, until he meet the border line of the woods. A fence closed the city and the woods. He looked behind him, breathing and watching with horror, these creatures ran after him, making a screeching noise. Gilbert wasn't thinking anymore he climbed the fence and jumped over, never turning back he ran into the woods. The screeching was getting softer and softer. Where the creatures were hating on the fence read a sign

" do not enter fence, if entered you may never come back, welcome to the forest of hallucinations..."

He walked deeper and deeper, something seemed off, very off but he couldn't pin point it. As he walked deeper and deeper this weird smell illuminated in the air since he past the fence. "where am I?" he asked out loud into the smelly air. As he walked he couldn't help but notice how the clouds above him kept changing colors. Ut was blue, then red, then pink, then green, then gray, then white, then blue once again. Everything in this forest seemed to be moving. Gilbert knew that things didn't move, so why were they moving now?

"I'm going crazy!" he yelled and quickly covered his mouth. The trees seemed to grow faces that watched him, the branches tried to grab him and toss him around. Hr ran from the trees, but as he got deeper and deeper, things only got worse. The trees started talking to him and to each other, it was driving him crazy. He swallowed a lump in his throat, why was this happening? Fear broke into his eyes. He wanted to close them, but he couldn't, the trees only talked louder and louder. Colorful mist filled the smelly air, of the forest. A voice then started to talk to him.

"hey dude, hows it hanging?" it asked Gilbert began to panic and looked around and around.

"where, where are you!" Gilbert yelled his eyes clouded by the mist.

"dude I'm everywhere!" the Prussian was now truly confused. His breath began to quicken.

"where am I, who ever you are!" the Prussian yelled at the air, it now had a sticky sweet smell.

"haha, wait you don't know where you are?" the voice said, sounding closer and closer. That was until a dude just came out if know where stepping out of a blue cloud. He looked at the Prussian who's eyes were still blood shot from the forest and having an encounter with the creatures. " dude!, your in the forest of hallucinations!" the man screamed into the forest.

Gilbert really didnt know how to respond, he just watched. He was in a hallucination, does that mean that this dude isn't real. He wanted to ask, but he also didn't. Sighing once again "how do I get out of this forest?" he asked the man who was playing with a zebra. "WHAT THE HELL!" screamed Gilbert. "HOW THE HELL DID THAT GET THERE!" the man looked at the screaming teen and back to the stripped animal, hr pointed at the animal, Gilbert nodded.

"oh well to answer your first question...i don't know and your second...this is prince my pet." Gilbert felt his eye twitch. This man here had a zebra as a damn pet! He knew he couldn't take this anymore and began to walk away from this crazy dude and his fucking zebra. Ashe did so the man followed.
"aww, dude don't leave, I don't get many visitors, at least stay!" the man whined, a pout was seen across his face. Gilbert raised an eyebrow.

"nien! I can not must get out of this colorful forest to look for that lady's house!" Gilbert told him as he walked around. The mans eyes widen, he grabbed Gilbert by the shoulder and turned him around.
"you do not want to go to the house in the woods." once again Gilbert rose and eye brow.

"and why not?" he asked

"your new here, are you not?"

"new to what this dream yes I've only been here like what 9 times since the first time I came, since I don't sleep!"

"oh! Welcome! But I bet you already got your welcome. Okay don't every go into the forest of malus" the man told him, Gilbert didn't know what that word meant malus.

"I don't know what that means" Gilbert told the man who's clothes were changing right before his eyes.

"you don't need, to know you just need to stay away!" the man yelled, in that same time as he finished a girl appeared. She had long black hair and had bangs. Her eyes were the lightest brown, almost yellow. She was wearing a colorful dress with some multi-colored flats.

"da fuck?! Another hallucination!" Gilbert yelled to the sky raising his hand. He then fell on the floor. His knees when to his chest he grabbed his head and started to mumble words of I'm going crazy now.

"ehhh? What happened, did I do something wrong?" asked the girl, as she looked up at the man. The man smiled down at her his pink eyes shining, hw ruffled her hair. Her eye twitched as she swat his hand away.

"no you did nothing wrong, may, Gilbert is just being a baby" Gilbert glared at the man. He got up and walked to him.

"I am not being a baby, and who is she!" he yelled pointing at the girl with black hair. She blinked once or twice and smiled. Gracefully she came forward.

" May, my name is may, nice to meet a new character!" Gilbert looked at her confused,

"...character?" he looked at her and at him. "what do you mean new character?" may jumped up and looked at the other man with pink eyes.

"you said to much may..." was all the man said. May looked to the ground, in dispare. "its alright thought, don't frit over it." he smiled and patted her on the head. He then turned to Gilbert. "Gilbert we can't tell you everything, this land if fun of secrets that you must unravel, but I'll tell you something, all of us the people you see, tries to unravel the secrets, but we didn't make it now its your turn!" he said happily. Gilbert nodded and once again began to walk forward.

"w-where are you going" may asked her eyes wide. Gilbert stopped and turned to her.

"I have to go to the lady's house, I promised to meet a friend there" both the hallucinations eyes went wide.

"you have a friend walking through that forest!" the man yelled walking closer to Gilbert.

"there is another one..." may said. "that has never happened..." she then whispered softly. The red eyed man rolled his eyes and nodded.

"and I really have to find him, so if I can get going, thanks for your time." with a good bye he was off. May bit her lip and turned to the man.

"should we follow?" he turned to her and smiled.

"I would but...thats not what im here to do...im here to warn nothing else, you can go try to keep him safe." may looked at gilberts walking figure and nodded hugging the man once last time her whispered a good bye and ran off after Gilbert. The man looked down and his smile disappeared he had a feeling that would be the last time he would see may.

-line break-

Gilbert looked behind when he heard a noise. He saw may running after him. "may? What are you doing here?" may stopper and blushed.

"the man told me to come and follow you, I know this place better than him, and he has been here longer I'm here to protect you, somewhat" may said softly looking into gilberts eyes. Gilbert rolled his eyes.

"okay I don't need help, plus your a hallucination, once I get out of this forest you won't be here." the Prussian told her as he turned around and walked away. May was in shook first, she the came back and ran after him.

"im not a hallucination, im the real deal, please Gilbert beilschmidt let me help you, you don't know the way out, plus I know how to get out of this forest and I know how to get to the lady's house!" the girl yelled in a pleading manner. Gilbert eyed her trying to find something that would tell him other wise, he didn't find it. Sighing he nodded at the girl, who smiled wide and ran to him. "thank you! Come on we got to hurry, before it gets dark!"

"why?" he asked. She looked at Gilbert and bit her lip. She opened her mouth then closed it. Then again open and close. She thought for a moment and opened again.

"lets just say, the night here isn't they safest place to be, its deadly." Gilbert didn't need more he nodded. Oh dear I hope Matthew is alright. I hope he didn't get hurt. Then again this was his idea, but still. Thoughts swirled through his mind. Both of them walked in silence, both in there own thoughts. Gilbert thinking about Matthew and may...

'please, Gilbert forgive me. I dont want it to happen to you. It happens to everyone. I just dont want it to happen to you, nor do I want it to happen to your friend. Please I'm sorry, I'm sorry that I can't tell you. Please one day forgive me... She shut her eyes tightly. Her breath hitched now it was uneven. A few tears fell down her face. She wasn't going to let Gilbert see her. With the back of her hand she whipped the salty tears off. She looked up and saw they were close to the end, and the sun was going down.

"Gilbert, we are almost out of the forest, and well Gilbert the sun is almost down. We really need to hurry!"she told him as she looked behind her shoulder.

"yeah okay, but how do we get out faster?" he asked. May began to think for a second then it came to her, but she didn't know if Gilbert would like her idea.

"I-I have an idea, but you wont like it..." she told him looking to the ground. Gilbert blinked once and twice.

"just tell me and the awesome me will say if I like it or not!"

" well my powers don't work in the forest but they work out of the forest I could teleport us to the house." Gilbert smirked a bit.

"I love that idea." may smiled at him, she turned to him and said.

"we must hurry, we gotta run!" with that her feet began to sprint away through the dense trees. Gilbert room a second to react, but never the less ran after the small girl. It didn't take long until he caught up and they walked out of the trees onto a plain land. The girl looked at him "we're here" Gilbert grinned, then the girl grabbed his hand said some words and they appeared at the house, Gilbert looked down at the girl. Her hair was still long and black with her bangs, but she had a black dress, he wondered what happened to her other clothes. Slowly she let go of his hand and walked in. Her yellow eyes glazing over the place, to see if anything looked out of place. She then turned back to Gilbert. "its clear no one is here...yet." Gilbert nodded and walked around the house.

It was a small cozy place. It seemed like a perfect house for a growing family, but everything had its dirty little secrets and this house had no exception. Just by the dark aura the house gave could tell the past, and give the future. Gilbert now knew it to well. He had seen that little girl get killed in the house. He knew this house held more secrets, and he didn't want to find out.

"Gil, what's your uhhh friend like?, what's his name?" may asked a bright pink blush spread across her face. Gilbert let out a laugh and smiled at the girl, he sat down on the couch that was in the living room.

"come sit, and his name is Matthew Williams, what he like? Well he's very quiet, calm, and a bit cute. He has wavy blonde hair that reaches to his chin. Then he's pale, like porcelain skin, but he's not as pale as me. Then he has violet colored eyes if you could call them violet, there so different. I mean I shouldn't be talking but still. And he has glasses but they fit him." Gilbert described his new friend, to may who had a small smile on her face.

"he seems cool, I wonder if I will meet him?" she said. Gilbert looked at the girl.

"why do you say that, you will meet him" he told her. A small smile crossed may's face.

" Gil, many things happen here, bad things, things that we can't control. For all we know Matthew could be dead, he maybe could have been devoured by a sulfur creature..." may told him. Gilbert's eyes went wide. He never though of the things Matthew could or would be going through. He had may to help him but Mattie had no one. He would be all alone, but something in his gut told him he would be fine. He just didn't know if he should believe it...

"im sure he will be fine, he's strong...or I hope. " Gilbert got up and went to look around the house. May followed him. They went up some stairs when they came into a hallway. In the hallway there was three doors, in which you could walk into. Gilbert walked down and turned to a bright pink door. He grabbed the knob and turned it.

The door, creaked as it opened. Inside there was a twin sized bed with fluffy pink blankets. There was also a bunch of stuffed animals. Old dolls also stood around the room. Doll houses also could be seen. Both walked in and found a bunch of dresses for every season. " a little girl used to live here?" Gilbert said but sounded more of a question.

"I guess, but I wonder who" Gilbert grabbed a stuffed baby chick toy. He smiles down at it. Then he thought was this the little girls room?

" y-you don't think its that little girl?" he asked still looking at the chick. May eyed him, curiously.

"what little girl?" Gilbert then remembered he never told her about his welcoming. So then how began.

"okay so when I came here the first day I found this little girl who was being taken by this lady, and the lady took her here. In the kitchen she pulled out the biggest knife and well stabbed her. She died, so I think this is her room!" he told her. May just looked at him.

"the girl that died gave you the welcoming right?"

"yea" may then looked down. That has never happened before she thought. The people that give welcoming's usually are alive and stay alive. They never die then give there welcome. Her mind wandered. That was until there was a knock that came down the stairs. Both of the kids looked at each other. Then they heard the door open.

"hello?"

ehhh I guess here's chapter 2, please review I get happy when people review and tell what you think, or do you think I should change something? Either way I own nothing bye
