Get Over Aperture
Ch. 4 From Bad to HORRIFYING
Chell's POV
I.
Hate.
This.
Sooo.
Much.
I feel like I'm gonna die.
Exactly HOW did I end up walking towards the deadly shed with Stefani, Miku, Ren and Jake?
"If you're scared because we're too few, then why don't we get everyone else to come with us?"
Oh. Right. It's always you and your bright ideas.
I thought hard about how she was able to convince them to come with us as I gave her the deadliest Death Glare I could make.
She, on the other hand, did not notice me at all.
I started praying that we would never reach the old shed.
Of course, that didn't work.
Jake grabbed the handle of the door.
No... Don't do it, man!
He turned around.
I realized I was holding my breath so I let it all out when he let go of the handle.
"You know, I don't get the point of going in some old abandoned shed just to see inside then come out. I mean, what could possibly be in THERE that would get people's attention?"
Chance!
"H-he's right! I mean, what if there's nothing in there? How do you know what could be in there? DO you know what's in there?"
"No. Do you?"
I stared at her and didn't answer. I could say yes, but if I say that, she'll ask me what it is inside.
But if I say no... God! I don't know what to do!
"See? But, really. It's not like there's something like some kind of nuclear reactor in there."
No. Not really. Just some trash-talking, murderer with just about everything she needs to torture hundreds of test subjects!
"We'll just get in, look around, and get out. Nothing will happen."
If only it was really that simple.
The sentence itself was horrible, but what was terrifying was that she said that with a warm, sweet, innocent smile.
And yet, that warm, sweet and innocent smile felt like a cold hand that slapped my face, the person telling me that I was about to lose all my friends because they're going to die and so was I.
CURSE YOU, STEFANI'S CURIOSITY! WHY DO YOU HAVE TO EXIST?
Stefani walked to the door and grabbed the handle.
"Here we go!"
