Disclaimer: I do not own the characters of Until Dawn or the game or story. All rights go to Supermassive Games. IF I owned this game...I don't what I'd do, but it'd be great. All I own is the plot, the storyline, and any OC who may show up within the story, so please enjoy and as always please leave positive reviews only! I don't have a PS4, but I watched YouTubers like DashieGames RunJDRun, PewdiePie, and GhostRobo, and I fell in love with this game. The story was immersive, the characters were amazing and had feeling (except Emily, she was a total bitch). Also, the only two characters that are not added in this story are Emily and Matt. I can't stand Emily's character because she was a total ass, and Matt I thought was a total whimp for not standing up agaist Emily when she was pushing him around. So, please, let me know if I should continue!

Previously on Until Dawn: Beyond Isolation - "You were the ones that brought him here in the first place and now you want to have him released back? Doesn't exactly sound like good parents to me." "You are you again?" The Woman asked as she tossed her long dark brown hair over her shoulder and reached a hand out toward Josh. "It's alright sweetie. We're taking you home now."

"So now you want to take him back home?" Chris asked trying to keep the hint of anger from his voice. "After everything you done to him?" "What are you talking about?" Josh's mother asked looking taken aback by Chris's words. "Your the ones who put him in here after what had happened last year with the death of your daughters, so why would you pretended to suddenly care now?"

Everyone looked shocked as they all turned to look at Chris with wide eyes. "Chris, what are you doing?" Sam whispered in his ear. "Your going to make things worse for Josh." "I'm not going to let them take him Sam." Chris replied shaking his head. "Josh has been alone for too long now, and I'm sick and tired of watching him suffer."

"Why are you doing this?" He whispered. "Leave me alone. Why are you doing this?" Sam gave her friend a look of concern as she could see the hurt in his eyes. "Don't worry Josh." She said softly as she placed a comforting hand on his shoulder. "We're not going to let you go through this alone anymore."

At that point, Josh stopped shaking and rocking as he looked up at her. His brown eyes shone with emotion. "I didn't want them to die." He replied as tears glistened in his eyes now and began to fall down his cheeks. "I swear, I didn't mean for them to die." Sam nodded and embraced him in a loving hug much to the disapproval of his parents. "I know Josh." Sam whispered. "I know you didn't want them to die, we all didn't, but it's going to be okay. You know why?" Josh shook his head as Sam lifted his head slowly so that they could look at each other. "Because you're not alone, and you will never be alone again."

"Guess we were wrong about you being a monster Joshua." His mother confirmed as Josh felt a lump beginning to grow in his throat. He could feel himself sinking and his emotions beginning to take over him as Sam held onto him. "How could you say that about your own son?!" She snapped angrily. "He's not the monster around here. The only monsters around here are you two assholes!" Bob and Melinda Washington looked taken aback by Sam's sudden outburst then turned away from her as they escorted themselves out of the room without even bothering to glance back at their fragile son.

"Shh, it's okay Josh." She whispered lovingly. "It's okay, they're gone now, and they're not ever going to hurt you again." Chris went over and placed a hand on Josh's shoulder as Josh turned to look at him. "Don't worry bro." he said softly. "From now on things are going to be different."

Josh looked at him as he whipped the tears from his cheeks as they continued to fill up in his eyes. "I know we haven't been the best of friends lately." Josh replied softly as he took a moment to glance at Mike, Jessica and Ashley. " I know I've been kinda messed up and everything, but I'm getting better though right?" Sam began to rub small comforting circles on his back as Chris patted his best friend lightly on the shoulder and replied, "Yeah buddy, you sure are getting better, and this time you're not going to go through this anymore."

NOW...

Chapter 10 - Trying To Breathe

I ruled the world
With these hands I shook the heavens to the ground
I laid the gods to rest

I held the key to the kingdom
Lions guarding castle walls
Hail the king of death

Then I lost it all
Dead and broken my
Backs against the wall
Cut me, open I'm

Just trying to breathe
Just trying to figure it out
Because I built these walls
To watch 'em crumbling down
I said

"Then I lost it all"
Who can save me now?

As Sam and the others all huddled around Josh for support, the door to the room opened again this time to reveal Dr. Hill, which sent a shiver of fear down Josh's spine as he started to shake again despite Sam still rubbing his back for comfort. "It's okay Josh." She said softly. "Just take it nice and easy okay? Everything's going to be alright." "I'm afraid your all going to have to leave now." Dr. Hill said softly. "It's time for Josh's medication." Josh's body now began shaking slightly harder now as his eyes cast upon the blue bottle that Dr. Hill held in one of his hands. "He doesn't need anymore medication." Mike said suddenly as everyone turned to look at him. "Excuse me?" Dr. Hill asked looking taken aback as he began to approach Josh. "We're taking him out of here." Mike said his eyes narrowing at the doctor. "Sorry, but I'm afraid I can't let you do that." Dr. Hill replied. "If his parents do not wish to release him, then I'm afraid he'll have to stay here and continue his treatment."

"Treatment?!" Chris finally had enough now as he nearly exploded in anger, causing Josh to jump in fright despite Sam still holding onto him. "Shh, it's okay Josh." Sam whispered into his ear as she glared at Chris. "Easy Chris." She scolded angrily. "Look I know we're all frustrated about this, but we need to remember to take things easy for Josh's sake." Chris balled his hands into fists by his side and held in his anger as he stared at the doctor from behind the rims of his glasses. "I believe it's best if you all leave right now." Dr. Hill advised softly. "Your upsetting my patient."

Chris was about to respond when the lights in the room suddenly began flickering as if there was some strange power outage. Jessica dug her fingernails uncomfortably into Mike's arm causing him to wince in pain as he looked at her. "Easy Jess." He said softly. "Relax will you? It's proabbly just faulty wiring or something." Jessica nodded slowly as she looked around in a panic while drawing in soft shaky breaths. Something wasn't right and it wasn't becuase of the building. She knew better since the events that happened last year. she knew a hell of a lot better to trust her gut whenever something felt wrong.

"We have to get out here." Everyone in the room now turned their attention toward Josh who spoke now in a soft child-like manner again which sent shivers of fears down their spines. "What do you mean Josh?" Chris asked softly. Josh was about to answer but a sudden cry of pain escaped from him instead as his hands flew back to the sides of his head as he began rocking back and forth yet again despite Sam holding onto him for support. "Shh, it's alright Josh." She said soothingly. "It's going to be alright." Josh let out another cry of pain again while curling in on himself as if he was being tortured by some unknown pain.

"Josh? What's the matter buddy?" Chris asked gently trying to get his best friend's attention. "Come on Josh, don't shut us out now. Tell us what's wrong." Came the assurance of Mike's voice. There was an eerie moment of silence as the lights overhead continued to flash harder and faster as everyone looked around the room in a panic. "It's too late." Josh's voice came out almost in a sarcastic manner as he gave out a laugh like a madman and his eyes danced wildly in the eerie fading light. "Their already here! And you're all going to die!"

I stood above, another war
Another jewel above the crown
I was the fear of man

But I was blind
I couldn't see
The world there right in front of me
But now I can

Yeah

"What the hell is he talking about?" Ashley asked starting to panic. "Who the hell are they? What the fuck is going on?!" Before anyone else in the room had time to react, the sounds of metal squealing mixed with a hideous growing sound sent them all a clear message as the door of the room suddenly twisted and flew off it's hinges with a loud crashing sound. "Oh shit!" Chris breathed in panic. "Not again! Not again!" There was a monstrous like shriek that could be heard over the impact of the noise as a sudden a claw shot into the room grabbing Doctor Hill around the waist and in the blink of an eye he was gone.

There was the sound of torturous screams followed by a sickening crunching sound as a sea of blood splashed into the room now causing everyone to start trembling and panicking in absolute fear. "Oh man! we gotta get out of here!" Mike cried out fearfully. "How can this be happening?!" Jessica shrieked in terror as tears began to pool in her eyes. "I thought all the wendigos were dead!" "Apparently not all of them!" Ashley cried out. "What do we do? How are we going to get pass them?"

"We don't have a choice." Sam said helping Josh to his feet. "We have to fight our way out here." "How in the hell are we supposed to do that?" Chris asked. "We don't have any weapons we can use to fend them off." "Speak for yourself." Mike said reaching into his pocket and pulling out a 38 caliber pistol. "That's not going to do anything to them." Chris replied just as another monstrous like shriek tore through the air. "No, but it will at least give us the advantage." Mike replied. "Now let's go!" "Stay together!" Sam ordered as she and Chris helped Josh.

Mike took the lead of the group with Jessica beside him still clutching onto his arm for support as they tore through the hallway of the institution. Ashley stayed beside Chris and Sam who were both helping Josh to make sure he kept up despite the state of his current condition. "Don't worry buddy, we're going to make it out of here." Chris said softly to Josh. Josh didn't answer with a response but felt his body start trembling in fear as the sound of the wendigos shriek tore through the building growing closer and closer.

Because I lost it all
Dead and broken my
Backs against the wall
Cut me, open I'm

Just trying to breathe
Just trying to figure it out
Because I built these walls
To watch 'em crumbling down
I said

"Then I lost it all"
Who can save me now?

"It sounds like there's more of them then there were before." Jessica whispered softly as Mike managed a nod. "Yeah I know." He whispered back trying to keep the terror in his voice from rising. "But at least this time we know how to handle them." Turning his head over his shoulder he whispered to Sam, "How's Josh?" "He's in pretty bad shape." She whispered back. "I don't think we'll be able to make it out of here with him in his current state."

Another shriek tore through the building, this one loud enough to nearly knock them all off their balance as they struggled to maintain their support. "What are we going to do?" Ashley whimpered as her body trembled in fear. "They're going to find us and kill us just like Matt and Emily." Tears welled up in her eyes as the images of Matt and Emily's dead bodies filled up inside her weary brain and she now found herself starting to break down. "Ash, we have to keep moving." She flinched as she felt a hand touch her shoulder and turned to see Chris looking at her with concern. Ashley swallowed hard and nodded despite the fear that ravaged throughout her body as another terrifying shriek tore through the hospital walls. "They're getting closer." Mike whispered to the others as his eyes darted around the room.

"You're all going to die." Everyone turned to see Josh, who was barely managing to keep up as he began to drag his feet across the floor as though he lost his ability to walk. His hands were on the sides of his head clenching tightly as though he was trying to crush his skull. "Just leave me here and go." Tears of anguish began to fill up inside the broken teen, and Sam could instantly sense the overwhelming heartache that was filling up inside him. "It's okay Josh." She said softly wrapping him into a hug and whispering into his ear to keep him calm. "We're going to make it out of here. We're all going home together." Josh shook his head sadly and pulled away from Sam just enough for her to see his eyes. "You all need to get out of here and just leave me."

They think I'm crazy but they don't know the feeling
They're all around me,
Circling like vultures
They wanna break me and wash away my colors
Wash away my colors

Take me high and I'll sing
Oh you make everything okay (okay, okay)
We are one in the same
Oh you take all of the pain away (away, away)
Save me if I become
My demons

"No way buddy." Chris said placing a hand on Josh's shoulder. "We're not going to abandon you not again." Josh shook his head and didn't seem to be listening as he his hands flew from the sides of head toward Chris's chest as he pushed him away. "Just leave me alone!" Josh's voice broke as he began to once again lose control of his emotions. "I deserve this." He muttered quietly as he sank to his knees on the floor. "It's going to be okay Josh." Sam whispered quietly. "It's all going to be okay." Once again Josh shook his head as his body trembled in terror. "Don't you get it?" He asked as his eyes darted around at everyone. "The wendigos aren't after you, they're after me."

I cannot stop this sickness taking over
It takes control and drags me into nowhere
I need your help, I can't fight this forever
I know you're watching,
I can feel you out there

Take me high and I'll sing
Oh you make everything okay (okay, okay)
We are one in the same
Oh you take all of the pain away (away, away)
Save me if I become
My demons

The wall's around them now began to crumble as a wendigo broke through the wall and was now looking at the group with it's milky white eyes growling, snarling, and ready to pounce if necessary. "Don't move." Mike whispered softly to the others. "No one make any sudden movements." Everyone all held their breath in anticipation. Each one mentally preparing themselves for the horrible pain of death they were about to receive. The Wendigo turned to face Josh and let out a monstrous shriek. Josh's weary eyes turned to face the wendigo and suddenly let out a soft gasp. "Hannah?"

Josh's breathing quickened and his eyes darted all around him as a wave of panic quickly overwhelmed him, and his breathing started coming out in short frantic breaths as though he was trying to force air into his lungs. Beneath Hannah's taut skin, there was a distinguishable black butterfly tattoo on her shoulder that didn't appear to fade despite the monstrous transformation she had undergone, which sent Josh's heart into his throat. It was his fault. He was the big brother who was supposed to protect his little sisters, and now one twin was dead, and the other had been transformed into a monster. It was too much for him to take. Standing up from the floor now on shaky legs, he then stumbled toward Hannah despite Sam trying to hold him back from doing so. "Hannah, I'm so sorry. This is all my fault, I should've protected you and Beth." At the mention of Beth's name, Hannah let out another monstrous like shriek that sent Josh's body trembling in fear as he fell to his knees. "Let the others go Hannah please, just let them go and take me instead."

Take me over the walls below
Fly forever
Don't let me go
I need a savior to heal my pain
When I become my worst enemy
The enemy

Tears welled up in Josh's eyes. "I'm tired of living without you." His voice once again broke as he started to sob. "You and Beth mean the world to me. Don't make me continue living on without you, please Hannie."

"Josh, you can't do this." Sam whispered to him softly in his ear. "I know how you feel, but you can't do this. You just can't." Pain filled up in Josh's eyes as he turned toward her and gently planted a kiss on her cheek which caused Sam's face to flush a shade of red. "I know what I'm doing." He whispered back. "Trust me." Sam's eyes filled with sadness and grief as she now stared down at the floor unable to find the words to speak. "I don't want to lose you." She said softly as tears filled up in her eyes. "I'm already lost." Was all Josh could reply as he wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close. "I was lost the moment I lost my sisters when I failed to protect them."

"Find a way to get yourselves out of here." He said softly to Sam. "Don't worry about me, I'll be fine." Sam shook her head as if she didn't really want to believe that Josh would truly be alright, but she knew she had to trust him. "I'll come back for you." She whispered to him as Josh nodded in response, but didn't say anything as Hannah's milky eyes stared at her brother and as she reached out a claw and grabbed him, he didn't even struggle in her grasp as she now began dragging him away.

Mike raised the gun toward Hannah in an attempt to shoot her, but Sam stopped him. "What the hell are you doing?!" He asked his voice laced with anger. "You're actually going to let Josh go like that?!" Chris cried out angrily as he grabbed her hard by the shoulder. "What the hell's wrong with you Sam?!" Sam lowered her head in sadness as she tried desperately not to break down as another terrifying shriek tore through the hospital walls. "We need to get out of here." She said her eyes now shinning with determination. "We can come back for Josh later, but right now we need to find a way to get out of here and finish off these wendigos once and for all."

TOO BE CONTINUED...Well that's it for now on this story sorry to say, but don't worry cause there will be a continuing story that will contiue where this one leaves off.
