Amber ran fast through the nightmare they were trapped in, it was some sort of broken-down and bloodied asylum of sorts. She found a chest so she tried to look through it but heard a scream from one of her teammates in the distance. She tried to ignore it, but fate was not on her side when she heard running coming up behind her. It was an injured teammate who somehow escaped the monster who they were trapped during this trial.                                                                      "Please help, That freak Grins slashed my arm," Alastor said as he held his arm in pain. Amber nodded and took his arm with some bandages she found in a chest. "Are you okay though? I know how much Grins can hurt." Amber said with concern lacing her voice. "I'm fine. All I needed was a quick patch up." Alastor said as Amber finished bandaging the wound. Amber nodded and was about to open her mouth to speak when she heard somebody, no something, laugh. She quickly closed her mouth and looked around. Alastor was helping look but he didn't see a thing.   "Look lass, it might have been farther in the distance- AHHHH!!" Alastor was interrupted by getting a scalpel driven into the back of his head. Alastor fell to the ground with a hole leaking blood from his head. Grins started to approach Amber with his sickening grin and bloodied scalpel. Amber turned and ran as fast as she could away from that monster, but he chased and caught up to her. Grins pinned her down to the ground and turned her to where she was belly up then started to carve her mouth into a grin as he has. She screamed and screamed but nobody came by the time he was done he made a long deep cut into her throat and stood up to admire his work and laughed. He left her body there knowing the entity would deal with it and revive her for more trials and walked off to find the others. Valkyrie was with Matthias keeping watch while Allen was trying to fix the gate with tools they found, but the tools weren't enough; they needed a battery-type object but that was still hidden. "Well, at least we're close," Matthias said as he kept watch and looked around. Allen looked at Matthias with annoyance. "Would you shut up?" Allen hissed, Matthias, backed up and sheepishly smiled, "Alright sorry!" he said as he backed off and sat on a nearby bench. Allen continued to work on repairing the gate then he must have messed something up causing a shock to go through his hand. "OW! Man it. That hurt." Allen said as he flopped his hand around attempting to ease the pain. Valkyrie looked around and grabbed Allen and Matthias by the collars and pulled them to a nearby shed and quietly closed the door.                                                                                                                                                 "What do you think you're-" Allen was cut off by the blonde-headed girl putting a finger to her mouth to indicate to be quiet.  Matthias stood by the door listening as the sound of stomping feet hit the damp ground and past them. Valkyrie took a sigh of relief and leaned against the wall. All of a sudden as if the monster heard her it grabbed her from a nearby broken window and wrapped a cold bloodied hand around her throat. She kicked and screamed as Matthias attempted to save his younger sister from this monster.                                                                                        "I can't see ya, but I can hear your wonderous screams." Grins said as he dove his scalpel into the girl's arm. Valkyrie screamed more as Matthias found a board and hit the killer's arm hard with it. "Ow! You little brat!" Grins said as he tried to swing his scalpel around to hit one of the three.                                                                                                                                                                                          "Okay soon as I open the door run," Matthias said as he looked towards the direction of Valkyrie and where Allen was supposed to be. "What?! Where did he go?!" he cried as he attempted to look around only to see the brunette running off in the distance away from the two siblings.          "Aw, did your little friend leave? How sad, but this also means I get to have more fun chasing him as I hear your curdling screams in the distance." Grins said as he opened the door to reveal his twisted and dark features. The carved smile into his face, the bloodied clothing, and weapon. His laugh echoed through the area where Allen was hidden and trying to cover his ears with tears staining his face. He could hear the screams of the Dane and the Norwegian echo as well. First was Matthias who sounded like he was getting gutted like a fish, Valkyrie watched and screamed in horror as she tried to run but the monster only swung at the back of her knees with a board knocking her down. She tried to beg for mercy but this killer was sadistic, he lived for the hunt then kill. No matter how far one tried to run this inhumane thing would find it and kill it. Grins finished the job on Matthias by using the same board to bash the brains and guts, laughing as he did so as Valkyrie still tried to crawl to escape cursing at Allen for leaving. Matthias's body turned into ash as the entity had yet another meal from one of its most promising hunters. He wasn't completely dead Valkyrie knew that. She has lost matches too, but the ones against the sadistic albino were the most terrifying.                                                                          "Little lambs to the slaughter, how pathetic! Now to die the same way your pitiful big brother did!" Grins screamed as he bashed the board into her body until it broke from the sheer pressure and endurance. Valkyrie and Matthias's screamed ceased with only the sound of laughter piercing the air around them.  Allen took off from his hiding place to attempt to find an exit, knowing he was causing more noise and making a distraction, he didn't care he wanted to live, escape, go home. But none of those options were available in this realm of horrors. The only guaranteed option was to relive these hell matches until the entity gets bored.
