(Something feels off about this girl) Cry thought. (She's too nice and her eyes have a weird glint in them.)
"Unbind him, he won't hurt me." Clair told the guard. With that the guard unbound Cry's wrists and left.
"Follow me to the next room Cry, and I'll explain what happens at the mansion and why you're here." Clair said as she got up and walked to another set of double doors. Cry followed Clair through the doors and into a room that looked like a smaller version of the room they just left. But in this room there was a small round table and two chairs instead of the couch and coffee table, and instead of nicely decorated walls there were chains.
Clair sat down in one of the chair and gestured to the one across from her for Cry to sit down. She then asked Cry "Do you want the long version or the short version?"
"The short version" Cry answered.
"Ok, basically you're here because I need you for an experiment. You see this mansion makes a dark copy of the people I bring here. But the copy is of their darker side. It makes ether their negative emotions human or it takes the darkness that lives in all of us and makes it come alive. But since I don't hide my dark side there's only one of me, oh and your friend that shares your room at the moment he's just here as my play toy because I couldn't make a copy of him because he's to pure, and when I'm done playing with him I'll put him out of his misery." Clair said with a big grin on her face.
"You mean you're going to kill him?!"Cry asked in shock.
"Yes, when I'm done playing with you as well I will dispose of you permanently, but that won't happen for a long time. Oh there is someone I want you to meet though, but you might already know him. You can come out now." Clair said. From the darkness a figure stepped forward, he looked like Cry except his mask looked different. The dark copy of Cry had a creepy mask on, the mask had a scribbled on smile and blood on it, his clothes also had blood on them. The dark copy of Cry came to a stop in the middle of the room. Clair walked over to him and said "Cry I'd like you to meet Mad, the darker side of you."
Mad stepped forward and said "It's been a while Cry." Mad pushed his mask to the side of his head so half of his face was showing and Cry saw that the corners of Mad's mouth were stitched together and his eyes were blood red and slited like a cat's.
"You thought you could keep me locked away, but guess what you were wrong."
Mad leveled a gun that he had been hiding behind his back at Cry's head and was about to pull the trigger when Clair yelled "STOP! You can't kill him yet."
"Fine I won't kill him" Mad said as he lowered the gun to Cry's shoulder and fired
*BANG*
"AH" Cry screamed. He tried to contain the scream but the pain was too intense. He fell to the floor and griped his shoulder.
"Now was that really necessary, Mad. You couldn't wait" Clair asked Mad.
"No, I couldn't it was just too tempting." Mad answered.
"Fine I guess I will leave. Oh and before I forget some of Cry's friends are here. They will be here in a few minutes so try not to kill any of them, especially Cry, ok." Clair said as she left the room.
Mad glared at the door, he turned towards Cry and said "Well that takes some of the fun out of it, but at least I still get to have fun listening to you and your friends scream and wraith in agony." The doors open and in stumbled Russ, and Red. They were blind folded and their hands were boned behind their backs. They were lined up against the wall and their restraints were replaced by metal cuffs that were chained to the wall. Mad removed the blind folds. The moment they saw Cry their faces brightened.
"Thank god you're alive, Cry" Russ said
"Yea, we were so worried" Red said.
"Yea, I'm not dead yet." Cry said with a smirk.
"Oh, please, quite with the heartwarming crap already, you're making me sick." Mad spat.
