'I'm gonna kill Shade when were done with this, I just had to tell her about that creepy abandoned town in the middle of the forest. Saying that we can go there at any time and she just happens to pick twelve in the morning!' I took a deep breath and asked "Tell me again, why you picked this time?" with a hint of tiredness. She answered with air of annoyance "Because its the earliest your dad would leave for work, anyway how much farther do we have to go in order to get there?" I sighed at shade's reason knowing she was right dad usually was hardly home but when he was it was annoying as all get out, conceding to her point I said "True true and we should be there right about..." I trailed of for a few seconds until we stepped into a familiar clear the very same one illuminated by the glow of the town "...now." In the clearing there was the town that I had seen surrounded by fog and...an electrical fence? "Oohh look Silent Hill!" Shade joked 'Really? No, Hey thanks for showing me this place that maybe or maybe not full of figures that could be stalking us? Ok' I thought
Shade's POV
I wanted to hug Dragon for showing me this place, I was going to thank her for allowing me willingly to come with her on the way. Really even though I trust her with my deepest darkest bloodiest secrets I wanted to make sure she wasn't fooling around with me. Turning to face Dragon when she just asked a question, she sounded a bit worn out maybe from all the walking. I answer her question also asking how much further we would need to go, then suddenly we stepped into a clearing it was clear by Dragon's face that she had been here before and did not like being back. I saw her eyes tilt up and her expression blank, curious I too looked up and I saw... lets just say my jaw almost hit the ground.
What I saw was amazing, it was a rusty looking deserted town with thick freezing cold fog and a fence. To me it was probably the ideal setting for an amazing zombie apocalypse video game or a excellent horror movie, which I was a major fan of both. I glimpsed at Dragon and her eyes were so wide they could have popped strait out of her head, I rested my fingertips on her shoulder and asked "Hey, you alright?" she nodded but didn't say a word, "So this is the place right? Unless you know of another town in the middle of our town." she just nodded again. "Well what are we waiting for? I'd love to explore and capture some great urban shots and some answers to who that guy was." I grabbed her hand and dragged her to the front gate and she just seemed to stare at the looming gates ahead of us, I shook my head and continued onward 'This will be interesting' I thought to myself trying to push the fearful emotion bubbling inside me.
Dragon's POV
All I could do was stare at the place I thought I would never return to and I couldn't move, couldn't do anything, Shade asked if I was alright and I simply nodded but I wasn't alright I didn't want to be here. Then I found myself zoning out still gazing at the desolated place, when I returned to earth I found myself inside the rusty spiraling gated that entrapped me, now it was no going back.
A little while walking in the road had a sign next to it stating: WELCOME TO SHELLING, the S and ING had been painted over as if saying welcome to HELL. I gulped and looked over at Shade who looked as excited as any horror junkie could get, suddenly a strong wind blew behind us as if pushing us into the creepy town and we flipped up the hoods and zipped/buttoned our jackets and continued our path.
