With the cloth locked firmly in matts hand he walked out the bathroom, down the corridor where blood peeled off the walls, down the stairs and out the school, nothing tried to stop him, when he stepped oavoided they fog had returned, Alessa undoubtably did this so matt could see where he was going, he glanced at the cloth again sure he knew where he hard to go but not how to get there, he begun to walk down the eerie main road again, looking for what he wanted.

Dahlia was crouched in the middle of the road, matt walked up to her, she was covered even more in ash than before, she must have been thier a while, "I knew you'd had to pass down hear, it's the only way" Dahlia said looking up at matt, "Just tell me where it is" Matt said in a bland way not wanting to waste his time, "You know you'll walking right into her trap" Dahlia said standing up, " I know that" Matt declared "but she has my wife, and I need to get her back" matt said determinedly, dahlia now begun to walk around him, studying him, " She won't make it easy, for you", "I don't have another choice", "I need my wife, my daughter needs her mother" Dahlia backed away abruptly, "THE DEMON DOES NOT NEED HER MOTHER" Matt saw the crazed look in dahlia's eyes and the hurt behind what she just said, a mother without her daughter, the hint of jelosuy that flickered through her, "what happened to Alessa was not your fault" matt said calmly, "I suppose not, but she has forgotten me now, but I can help you, I know what it feels like to lose someone you love" "Thank you" matt said thankfully, "I just don't want to lose her"...

"Let me see" Dahlia said pointing to the cloth in matts hand, made gave her the cloth she examined it intensly, "Did she give this to you" dahlia questioned matt, he nodded "it was left when she dissapeared" Dahlia nodded in reply, "do you know where it is" matt questioned her, "The church, oh yes" she pointed somewhere off to the right, "Why does she want me there" Matt questioned her, " That's the only place she carnt penetrate, the fog world and the other world she made have no effect on the church, The priestess, Christabella, uses the church as a way to hide from the darkness, and it is considered a safe location from the ravages of the alternate dimensions, she was the one that condemned Alessa to being purified she made everyone believe it would relive her of sin, but it did the oppisite relived her of goodness and was replaced with revenge and hate" "Thank you" Matt said not wanting to waste anymore time, he turned and walked away, "she hides behind the darkness" Dahlia added after him, matt continued to walk towards the church.

The church is a two-story building topped with an air-raid siren, that matt thought was the warning sign of the darkness, there was a graveyard infront of the church, there was steps leading up to a set of wooden doors, then the sirens sounded, the piercing sound even loader than before as he was much closer to the sirens, people ran hurriedly up the steps into the church, matt followed, An ornate set of wooden doors opened onto the first floor, which has a long row of candlelit pews leading up to a circular area with a large painting of the cult's symbol. Several miners outfits hung from the ceiling, several people crowded around the front of the church, the doors were closed behind him as he walked in, he notice a women at the front, he guessed she was in charge, as he begun to walk towards her all the people begun to whisper, her eyes focused on him, she was wearing a blue dress, similar to Alessa's, "Hello" she greeted him, "I'm matt" matt said unsure what to say, "Welcome to the cult, we are safe in her the darkness carnt penetrate these walls they keep the sinners out, I am the cult leader christabella" matt nodded, "Alessa..." Christabella stepped back in shock, the other cult members also gasped, "don't..." Christabella shouted, speak the demons name, " sorry, she has took my wife" matt said the pain hit him again, "we must pray" she ran to the front of the stage and begun to utter a prayer, the other cultists joined in, matt was unsure if this was helping or egnoring him, "I know what you did to her" Christabella fell silent, she abruptly turned around, "She was a Witch, a sin she had to be PURIFIED" Christabella said shouting as she stepped closer to matt, clearly she was tired of explaining about Alessa, she did not wish to speak of her, she turned back around "you carnt hide from her" matt said calmly, christabella froze "she will come for you, she only hasn't yet as has been occupied with others she seeked revenge on, these walls carnt stop her nothing can, you thinking praying will make the darkness go, it doesn't, she controls when it appears, why do you think the worlds kept changing every time I went into a building, so she could show me what she had done to the people that had hurt her, why do you think she led me here, she appeares every place I go, she's watching us right now, she's coming, why else would I be here, she made you live in fear of her just like she wanted now its time to make you fully pay for her suffering" this was matts last attempt he had at trying to save his wife, knowing Alessa was listining, he wanted her too know he understood. Christabella turned around to face matt, " Are you siding with the demon" She pointed her finger at matt, "witch, witch" christabella declared " Burn him, burn him, or he'll let the darkness in" Christabella shouted turning to the other cultists, who were muttering to themselves

Suddenly the ground under the stage begun to shake, matt jumped to the side, christabella and the other cultists backed away from the stage, " no, no, you've opened the portal, you've let the demon in" christabella cried out horrified as the stage begun to open, letting the darkness pour in...
