Elevator to Hell

Sango cracked her eyes open as she saw Miroku standing over her with both of his arms on either side of her head. His head was down and his breathing was erratic. Sango tried to look at his eyes and whispered, "Miroku? Miroku are you ok?" Miroku finally looked in Sango's eyes and said with a weak smile, "You're ok Sango? Oh, I'm so…glad." With that, a little bit of blood dribbled out of Miroku's mouth. Then with a gurgled grunt, Miroku dropped to the floor and Sango saw it. Jason's machete had pierced through Miroku with incredible strength, and though little blood was pouring out of the actual wound itself, Miroku was trembling from the sheer pain. Sango screamed as she collected Miroku against herself, "No! Miroku, why did you have to do that?! You idiot Miroku, you idiot!!" Miroku replied as he looked at Sango, "I love you, and I wanted to save you, cause if you got hit instead of me, I don't think I'd have wanted to live after that." Kagome and Bankotsu were trying to wake Inuyasha up, but he was out cold. Jakotsu looked at Kagome and said, "Hey, Kagome why don't you try kissing him? We'll see if that'd wake him up." Kagome looked at Jakostu with her jaw half dropped and said in a flustered manner, "Ja..Jakotsu! This is hardly the time or place for this kind of stuff!!" Bankotsu slapped Jakotsu in the back of his head and roared, "Dude, be serious for once alright!?" Jakotsu raised his hands defensively and said, "Ok, fine! Fuck, you don't need to bite my head off, I'm just trying to throw out ideas here." Miroku let out a little laugh as he heard that but coughed hard and Sango held him as she said, "Miroku, try not to move, we'll get you help, you'll be alright! Just don't die on me ok?" Miroku didn't answer and instead, nodded while trying to take deep steady breaths. Kagome sat next to Inuyasha and watched the elevator dial get closer and closer to the top floor and she thought to herself, 'We made it, this nightmare is going to end at last...'

Meanwhile, back in the Michael Myers exhibit, Jason stared at the maintenance elevator doors for a second, and then he brought a strong fist back. It struck the doors with enough force to knock a man's head clean off, but the doors didn't fly off, the simply dented from the pressure, and Jason grabbed both of the doors as they hung on their hinges. It didn't even require a bit of effort from him to rip them from their hinges and toss them off into the hallway with loud clanging noises as they skidded onto the marble floor. The hockey masked-killer looked at the cables carrying the elevator and looked up at the elevator, which was pulling away. Without diverting his gaze from the elevator, Jason reached out with one hand and gripped a cable. The force of the friction would've been enough to tear a normal person's hand off. But Jason was not a normal creature by any means. The elevator simply stopped with a violent jerk.

Back in the elevator, everyone felt a violent shake. Inuyasha finally came to as his head bumped against the elevator walls with a shout of pain and a curse. Kagome held him up and said, "Inuyasha, you're awake!" Inuyasha looked at Kagome and shook his head a bit, trying to clear his vision. "What happened? The last thing I remember was Jason attacking us back in the Michael Myers exhibit." Kagome replied, "You saved me Inuyasha, but you got yourself hurt in the process." Inuyasha sat up and said, "This is just a scratch. I've had worse and survived just fine." Jakotsu suddenly interrupted them, "If you two are finished with your moment, then please get your heads back together! Didn't you all just feel that shake?" Everyone did feel it, and suddenly the entire elevator started shaking more violently, almost knocking the people who were standing onto their feet. The lights started flickering randomly, loud noises emitted from all around, and sparks fell from the ceiling. Sango looked at the floor the elevator said they were on and yelled over the noises, "We're moving back down! WE'RE MOVING BACK DOWN!" It was true as everybody, including Miroku, looked at the dial and they all realized that they were in big trouble. That had almost reached the top floor, but now they were three floors above the Michael Myers floor. Inuyasha roared, "Push the stop button now!" Everybody struggled to maintain their footing as they lunged for the button, with Kagome successfully pressing it. A loud skidding noise was heard as brakes on the elevator battled against the sheer brute strength of Jason Voorhees.

Jason noticed that now he was going to have to make a harder effort to bring down his victims and began pulling harder then before to bring his victims down. However the elevator cables could only take so much with so much pressure on both side of this life or death tug-of-war. Back in the elevator, Miroku was finally on his feet with Sango supporting him, and he said, "Sango, look!" The elevator doors in front of them suddenly opened before them. Kagome, Inuyasha, Bankotsu, and Jakotsu all clambered rapidly out of the elevator. As soon as Bankotsu had jumped clear of the elevator, they all yelled for Sango and Miroku to get out of there. Sango struggled to bring Miroku out of the elevator, but there simply wasn't enough time for both of them to get out. The doors began to close, but Bankotsu and Inuyasha jumped forward and with all their might, held the doors opened as Kagome leaned out as best she could with her arm outstretched towards her best friend. She yelled, "Sango, Hurry!!" Miroku grunted, "Sango, give Kagome your hand, I'll follow you." Sango looked at him and said quietly, "You're lying!" Miroku couldn't answer, and Kagome screamed, "Get a move on you two!! Time is running out!!" She turned to Jakotsu who was staring at them and yelled, "Give me a hand here!" Jakotsu ran over and Kagome said, "Listen carefully Jakotsu. Hold onto my ankles, I'm gonna lower myself down so I can reach Sango and Miroku!" Jakotsu nodded and as he grabbed her ankles, he noticed that she was still wearing her school skirt and Kagome roared at him so terrifyingly that even Jason might've been suprised, "And don't you dare look down my skirt or I'll kill you myself!!" Jakotsu nodded and looked away as he held Kagome's ankles as she lowered herself down further. Inuyasha and Bankotsu were still doing their best to hold the elevator doors open but they were feeling tired, and it was sheer adrenaline pumping through their veins that kept them going.

Miroku held Sango tightly to his chest despite him having a machete stuck through him and she said, "Miroku, don't go dammit! I'd rather die here with you then leave you alone!" Miroku muttered Sango's name and said as he looked at her, "Sango, please you have to go, there isn't much time! I could never stand the thought of you dying for my sake. I…I love you Sango!" and with that, he pressed his lips on hers, completely surprising Sango, who didn't resist. Instead, she leaned into the kiss, despite the perilous moment. But suddenly, Kagome appeared right behind Sango and Miroku said to her, "Kagome, watch Sango for me, alright? I'll come back." With that, Miroku shoved Sango straight at Kagome who caught Sango underneath both of her arms, and she yelled, "Jakotsu, bring us back up!" Despite his appearance, Jakotsu was a pretty strong guy, and he slowly managed to bring both Kagome and Sango back up. Sango struggled in Kagome's arms, as she screamed, "No, NO!! Let me go Kagome! Miroku! Miroku…!" Miroku yelled at her as she ascended away, "I LOVE YOU SANGO!!" Sango yelled back tearfully as she was pulled through the elevator doors, " I LOVE YOU TOO MIROKU!!"

Miroku reached back for the machete's handle, and with a scream of pain, pulled it out of himself. He coughed up more blood as he struggled to stand. Time was almost up, he had to do whatever he could to make sure that Jason couldn't follow them. He spotted a hatch in the ceiling of the service elevator. He placed the handle of the machete in his mouth as he opened the hatch, and just managed to reach a side as Jason finally brought the elevator down enough for him to reach the up and grip the elevator floor. He finally pulled it down all the way just as Miroku brought himself up on top of the elevator. With the machete in his hands, he began slashing as hard as he could at the thick steel wires. Jason looked upwards and saw what Miroku was doing, but strangely, the hockey-masked killer didn't even bother to stop Miroku. It was almost as he knew that he wasn't going to die from what Miroku was planning. Miroku however was more concerned with what he had in mind and continued hacking away at the wires. Finally, he cut through one of the thick cables and began working on the other one, and was half ways done when Jason thrust his fist through the ceiling. He groped around and felt Miroku's foot. Then he tugged hard at it, and Miroku felt like his leg was going to be ripped off. Miroku cleverly managed to kick his shoe off and was almost done with the cable. Just one more slash and Jason would be out of their lives for good. He brought the weapon back and with all the strength he could muster, slashed through the cable. The elevator jerked hard, as the other cables snapped rapidly. Jason thrust his fist through the ceiling again, and grabbed Miroku's other foot. The elevator's last cables snapped as it fell at a horrfying speed, and Miroku's scream echoed as he went down with the elevator into darkness.

From the floor where the rest of the group was, a horrible scream, and a loud crash was heard.

Then all was quiet again…

Jin: Scary, ain't it? Is Miroku dead? Or will he keep his word and really come back? Please leave reviews for me, and let me know if I'm doing a good job. Sorry to keep you all waiting. (Oh and just to let you all know, when a blade enters a person, they lose more blood when the blade is actually pulled from their body. The weapon acts as a plug, and hey, for all you guys know, maybe Miroku got stabbed, but his vital organs were missed?)
