I'm sorry this took so long but lots of thing just happened in a line and i had no time to write. I'm going to try to shorten the gap in between chapters. I will most weeks put something up every fortnight with the exception of the next chapter which could be in 3-4 weeks as I am going on holiday!
Chapter 5 – Forget.
(Duncan's POV)
She lifted her head up from her cuddled position, her hidden eyes staring directly at Duncan.
"Not again?"
"What, what do you mean?"
"Before we were taken here I heard you say 'not again.' Why?"
He did not remember saying it, but he knew why he would have. He had been wandering whether to tell anyone. He was just about to tell her everything when reality came crushing down on him. Not only was it unbelievable but she had never told her anything, not about where she came from, why she was here and the one thing he wanted to now the most: what was she hiding under her clothing?
"Give me one good reason why I should tell you."
She stood up, staring him down, "Because there is something incredibly wrong with all of this, and it could be my fault! I need to now if it is and I need to find a way to fix it as best as I can!" Her voice was inpatient and harsh but also relieved, relieved that she had finally said it.
Duncan was taken aback by her sudden outburst but calmed himself.
"I'll tell you what I know, but first I want you to show me your face."
She hesitated before lifting her hand to the top of her hood.
"Only because you're probably going to die."
She pulled down her hood, revealing a turquoise hat covering her hair. Next her hand fell to the top of her mask, pulling down the black fabric. Duncan glared at her face - he was not sure what to expect, but not this, not nothing. The lower portion of her face was completely normal: pale skin and red lips. Next she moved her hand to the hat, lifting it off her head. A mass of hair came flowing out of her hat landing almost perfectly around her shoulders. Her hair was a fiery red, however the red hair became a dark purple lower down, the two colours merging in the middle.
Finally she reached for her goggles, pulling them onto the top of her head to reveal what at first looked like violet eyes. As Duncan stared deeper into her eyes he found them to be not just violet, violet was simply the dominating colour. Different shades of red, green, brown and blue weaving their way around the violet base, each colour trying to become dominant.
"Speak up!" Kimi's voice snapped him out of the trance, her eyes seemed to set upon him. So many questions were flying around his head - old ones and new ones. Something was stopping him from asking anything, something that connected with her earlier outbreak. She had so many secrets and he wanted to know them all. But people keep secrets for a reason.
"OK, well this survival games, it's happened before. Many of us who are here now were at the last ones, including a group of people, visitors, friends, but Ridge did not see them as friends so he marked them as trespassers; they all died. Martin and Toby won - they were trespassers then, but by winning they became a resident. Many of the residents were killed but they did not die. When the game was over they woke up back at their house, however they forgot everything."
She gave out a thoughtful sigh before swinging into action, pulling her mask from around her neck and tying it around the top of her left arm, then putting her hat on but leaving her hair flowing at her shoulder. Taking her goggles from the top of her head, she threw them to the side before heading for the door.
Duncan stared at her with questioning written in his eyes.
"Seeing that no one will remember I see no point in wearing them. The goggles totally messed up my super bad ass look."
She took one final glance at the goggles on the floor before leaving the room, signalling for Duncan to follow.
Daltos's POV)
"I can't believe you're still going on about your mum, your pet rabbit and your tuna sandwich! That was ages ago and we kind of need to start trying in this messed up world!"
Daltos swerved round expecting to see Zylus behind him in shock at his outburst but instead he found, nothing.
"Zylus? ZYLUS?! Oh very funny, hiding. Well you lost, I can see the corner of your coat around the corner, so come out already!"
He was expecting to see Zylus sitting there. Zylus was sitting there, but he was also dead.
Daltos noticed a shadow appearing at the corner of his eyes. He jolted to the side, narrowly missing the blow sent by a pissed off Strippin. He hurried to pull out his sword but after another narrow miss, in which he was saved by a branch, he decided it was best to run.
He ran though the small passages. Curving his way though the narrow alleyways. The wind whipping around him, the buildings becoming blurred distracted him when a figure moved in front of him tripping him up. Loud echoing footsteps bounced around inside him, then everything stopped.
He stared into the pink glow of light shining though his eyelids. He opened his eyes and began blinking: firstly at the blinding light, as the shock of sitting up waved over him. Eventually, after the dizziness had died down and his eyes recovered from the light, he began to take his surroundings, forming in front of him. A white room with plain walls equipped with homely furniture. And Zylus, Nilesy, Ravs and Honeydew were there. They had all died.
"AM I DEAD?" Four sets of eyes turned his way. Honeydew, after a glance, quickly turned back to looking at what looked like a sheet of silver in his hands.
As if on cue the wall on the other side of the room began to glow bright white, invisible brick by invisible brick. Each brick shape light shone brightly before disappearing in mid air. Revealing Ridgedog.
Daltos felt the urge to attack him but he held himself back, knowing how hopeless it was.
"Daltos, you're up, and about time too. Well welcome to the limbo resting room, if you need anything ask the hole in the wall (reference!) and try not to shout."
"How come I'm not dead?"
"Did you really think I want to kill all of you? It takes too long to replace you and it gets so boring! But I don't like trespassers so I came up with a fun way to kill them. Good, huh?"
"They weren't really trespassers last time - we knew them, they were friends!"
"Interesting, looks like limbo's giving you a memory boost. Well it is a weird place to be; it can really mess with you and I have full power over it. So be a good little boy: go the hole in the wall, ask for your teddy bear back and take a nap. Strippin wasn't kind to you and I'm not a miracle worker." The wall began to reappear in front of him square by square, and just before his crooked grin was out of view he added, "Well, at least not when I don't want to be."
