Trapped by Death
Kagome held her hands over her mouth as Jason continued stabbing his machete through the bed. She was shaking with fear and was focused only on not moving or breathing. But she felt some comfort that Inuyasha was there, holding her tightly to his chest. Inuyasha was also scared as hell and was trying his hardest to also not give himself or Kagome away. One fatal slip was all that was needed for Jason to kill them. But he still looked through the vaguest spot he could conjure up, despite their position, and continued to see what Jason was doing. After Jason was through stabbing the bed, the hockey-masked psychopath grabbed the side of the bed frame in one powerful hand and effortlessly tossed it right at a closet door. This time, Inuyasha had to shut a hand over his mouth to keep himself from making any sound. He held onto Kagome just a little bit tighter and the girl still didn't make a sound despite the fact that she wasn't able to breath as well as she'd have liked.
Jason looked silently down at the floor, almost perplexed by the fact that there was nothing there. Just the one shoe Kagome was wearing and an air filter let out a slow breeze that would've indicated that something was under the bed he destroyed. After staring at it for almost a full ten seconds, Jason finally proceeded slowly out of the room, his heavy boots seemingly echoing loudly. Inuyasha relaxed his grip on Kagome, but still held her, until Jason's footsteps were gone. Both of them simultaneously let out a long but quiet breath. Inuyasha and Kagome ever so quietly, got out of the closet that they had hidden in just as Jason broke into the room. Inuyasha quietly crept to the stairway as Kagome retrieved her shoe, and then she sat down under a lamp to see where they were. Inuyasha looked out the doorway and upwards as the stairs continued up into the higher floors, but he spotted a deadly obstacle, and he moved back into the room very fast. Kagome whispered, "Inuyasha, we're in the Michael Myers exhibit. If we take the stairs, we can get to the top floor faster." Inuyasha turned to her and said, "No way is that gonna happen Kagome." "Why not? Is Jason out there?" Inuyasha shook his head, "No, but the way up to the next floor is still in the process of being connected to the other floors." Kagome sighed and said, "So there's no way to get up?" Inuyasha looked at the map and pointed at a spot, "No, we can take the maintenance elevator. It has its own emergency power so I think we can get to the top floor quicker." Kagome agreed, "Yeah, but there's one problem…" Inuyasha already knew, "We have to go through the exhibit, almost straight to the other side." Inuyasha and Kagome looked out the door onwards. Somewhere in the dark depths, Jason Voorhees was lying in wait.
Meanwhile, Miroku and Sango continued going up the stairway. As they kept going up, Miroku asked, "Sango, why are we going up the stairs?" Sango replied as she kept moving, "Well if we get to Kikyo first, then we can just wait for Kagome and Inuyasha, and then we'll all leave together!" "Sounds like a plan!" Miroku said, panting a little bit. As they reached the third floor on the stairwell, Miroku spotted something moving, "Sango, look up there!" Sango looked at the direction Miroku was looking, but she didn't see anything. She rolled her eyes and said, "Miroku, there's nothing up there!" "I'm not kidding, I saw something- Argh!" The door that Miroku and Sango were next to suddenly burst open and they saw two guys, trying to catch their breath as though they had just run a marathon. It was, "Bankotsu, Jakotsu!"
The two looked as though they had seen death itself, but weren't able to speak for a few seconds, and when he finally could speak, Bankotsu spoke so rapidly that Miroku and Sango were not able to understand a word he was saying. Miroku held up Bankotsu and yelled, "Whoa, hey! Calm down you two, what the heck's going on?" Bankotsu took a few deep breaths and but was still scared as he said, "You guys, pant, Koga just got fucking killed!" Miroku looked at Jakotsu who nodded rapidly, "Its true! Some hockey masked motherfucker fried him with the electric generators!" "Hockey masked mother-? What are you talking about!?" Sango demanded. Bankotsu opened his mouth to speak, but Jakotsu interrupted him, "Look, just trust us, and get the hell out of the building as fast as you can!" "We can't, we're trying to help our friend Kagome and Inuyasha make sure that Kikyo gets out too." "Whats so important about Kikyo? Don't you guys even care about your own lives?!" Jakotsu demanded. Miroku responded impatiently, "Kikyo is Kagome's sister. So if you want to leave, that's fine, but Sango and I still are going to go on." Bankotsu groaned and said, "Ok fine, if you want to get to Kikyo, we'll take you there." Jakotsu spoke up, "No way Bankotsu! Lets just get out of here while we still can!" Bankotsu shook his head and said, "Jakotsu, we agreed to get everyone out of here!" Jakotsu groaned but said, "Ok, but if any of us get killed for this, I'll be kicking your ass in the afterlife!" Miroku and Sango had no idea what they were talking about, but as long as they could get to where they figured Inuyasha and Kagome would be, it didn't matter.
Inuyasha and Kagome slowly exited the hallway and they heard eerie music with violins and piano playing. Kagome gasped as she turned and saw Michael Myers standing at the end of the hallway, wearing a dirty old jumpsuit crusted with flecks of red. He seemed so real, staring at them with black eyes darker then hell, and a large butcher knife gleamed menacingly at them. He was almost as terrifying as Jason, if not just as terrifying. Kagome gulped and Inuyasha held her hand tighter. They slowly began following Inuyasha's lead, each step was taken very carefully. Every squeak of the wooden floor echoed loudly to their ears, no matter how careful they were. Finally, they succeeded in making it to the end of the first hallway. Inuyasha very carefully looked at both ends of the hallway.
So far, nothing was there. Just a scene of Michael Myers as a young boy, wearing a clown mask over his face, and holding a butcher knife in his right hand was on the right wing of the hallway. Gathering their wits, Inuyasha and Kagome carefully continued forward. They walked through the replica of Michael Myers house, barely making any more noise then a quiet breath, as the quietness seemed to sharpen their senses. The sight of the old moldy walls, the sound of their own hearts beating, the musk smell of fear, and the dry taste in their mouths. They looked carefully all around them, in case Jason was hiding somewhere right next to them. They made it to the next hallway and Inuyasha again checked out to see if the coast was clear. Kagome kept her eyes around everything else, and a shadow swiftly moved at the other end of the hallway from them. Kagome sharply turned her head back and whispered nervously, "Hurry Inuyasha, the sooner we get out of here, the better." Inuyasha agreed, "Yeah, right."
Finally, the coast seemed clear enough for them to move forward. They began their trek forward cautiously, feeling a bit more confident. So far, Jason hadn't shown up. They kept walking quietly, until they saw a sign that said, "Maintenance Service Elevator" at the far end of their walkway with two other paths leading to the left and right. Kagome and Inuyasha proceeded forward a bit faster, not even noticing the doors on either side of the hallway, and as they reached the paths, Jason suddenly burst behind them with a horrible crashing noise! Inuyasha and Kagome yelled in terror as Jason strode towards them in almost three steps. As he raised his machete, Inuyasha shoved Kagome to the right hallway as he himself jumped to the left one. Jason swung his machete so hard it got stuck in the ground and with no way around him, Inuyasha yelled, "Kagome. RUN! GET OUT OF HERE, GO!!" Jason brought his machete out of the ground and Inuyasha ran at him to draw him away from Kagome, but instead received a hard forearm to his chest, sending him at the wall with almost paralyzing force. Jason moved to finish the injured Inuyasha, but Kagome grabbed a lamp and threw it as hard as she could at Jason. The object merely broke against his shoulder, but it got his attention anyway. The hockey-masked killer started his slow ponderous walk towards Kagome who broke into a run. She had no clue where she was headed and just ran, with Jason in pursuit. The terrified girl ran until she thought she lost Jason, with her heart pumping rapidly. Then, as quietly, yet quickly as she could, stole back to the service elevator.
Inuyasha was still there, crumpled on the floor. Kagome gently slapped him to rouse him, but he was out cold. Adrenaline was flowing through Kagome at a powerful rate, so she actually grabbed Inuyasha under his shoulders and whispered urgently as she dragged him to the elevator, "C'mon Inuyasha, wake up, wake up!" Kagome finally reached the elevator, and began tapping the button for it to come as fast as she could. Then she bent down next to Inuyasha, still trying to awaken him. She heard a loud thump, and Jason was at the very end of the hallway. He tilted his head slightly before slowly walking towards the girl and her friend. Kagome tapped the button more and cursed, "Dammit, start, start!!" Jason was halfway there, and the elevator still hadn't come. Kagome continued tapping the button with her life and Inuyasha's on the line. Finally, as Jason made it to the point where the hallways crossed, and the elevator doors opened at last. Kagome looked behind herself and saw, "Miroku! Sango!" Bankotsu, Jakotsu, Miroku, and Sango were in the elevator already. Before the other two could say anything, Bankotsu yelled, "HOLY SHIT!" Jason was coming at them all, and Kagome with her friend's help, dragged Inuyasha into the elevator while Jakotsu pushed a button with all his speed. The doors began to close as Jason threw his machete at them. The weapon flew at them and got through the doors just as they closed. Miroku threw himself in front of Sango who would've been hit, and who herself had no time to move out of the way.
The machete did not miss.
