House Of the Desperate (COMPLETED)

Chapter 1

Chapter 1

The house was silent. There was no noise. Even a housefly could be heard in this house. The building itself was shut away from the rest of the world. Nobody bothered to look at it, because nobody cared. It was like it didn't even exist. This unusual building had one floor, and there were four main rooms.

The bedroom was the largest room in the house. There were ten beds in it, all neatly made up. However, there was nobody sleeping in them. Nothing else was in that room, except for a massive mirror - a mirror that had never been looked in for a very long time. The walls of this room were like those from a prison cell - grey and depressing. Nobody would have ever dreamed of sleeping in this room. It was like it was made to create nightmares.

The living room was the next largest room. Contrary to the bedroom, this room had a little bit of colour. Also, there were several more things in this room. There was a colossal square sofa, and it looked perfectly comfortable. The cushions were in all of the corners, and even the back seats of the sofa were perfectly lined up. In the center of this sofa, there was a glass table. It was small, but made the room look slightly happier.

There was also a television in this room. It was plugged in, but it was very, very dusty. The carpet was green, and the walls were orange, making this room a typical living room.

Attatched to the living room was the kitchen, which was also the dining room. The kitchen had all of the usual equipment - a fridge, a freezer, an oven and a microwave. In the kitchen there was an enormous table which sat in the way of almost everything, creating little space to move around in there. The kitchen looked more modern than any of the other rooms.

The final room in the house was the bathroom. It was quite large, but there were few things in there: a toilet, a shower and a basin. Similair to the bedroom, the bathroom looked rather depressing. There was a leak coming from the bottom of the toilet, the taps of the basin were almost broken, there was a large crack down the wall in the shower, and there was a stain on the rug in the bathroom.

To get to the bathroom, you had to travel through the garden. The garden was square, and there was no life in it at all other than grass. Nothing else was there; not even one flower. No insects entered this garden, since it was completely fenced off from the outdoors, like the rest of the house. In fact, it was not even a fence, but a concrete wall, like in a prison. The wall was approximately twenty feet high, so nothing could get in or out. At the top of this wall, there was only sky, where anybody who wanted to look up could only occasionally see a cloud floating by.

Overall, this whole house was completely lifeless, and had seemed to be for a long time. However, one day changed that dramatically.

Ten people were lying in the garden of this seemingly lifeless house. All were breathing fine, and some were beginning to wake up. The first person to wake up was a man named Piers. He was wearing very scruffy clothes that had tears in them. He had a very messy beard and scratches all over his face. He got up slowly, and looked around at the concrete wall, and then he saw the nine other people lying there.

"What the Hell is this?!" he screamed.

His cry woke another two people up. One was Lucy, a young girl of about sixteen. She had bright blonde hair and blue eyes. Compared to Piers, her clothes were fantastic.
