Win - H2OVanoss

Chapter 19: Finding Each Other

Song: DHT - Listen To Your Heart

"Player Vanoss has joined the game."

Delirious' POV

I stopped in my tracks. My heart sank, I couldn't even feel the beat anymore as my palms started to get sweaty, my head even started to ache.

Evan.. is here? Why and how?

"He practiced with you, he must be brought into this fun game!"

"Fun gam-? Are you fucking kidding me? Take him out!" I ordered, looking up into the night sky, where the voice was coming from.

"I'm afriad I can't do that, Delirious. The only way out now is to get those 8 pages."

I kicked the ground and cursed underneath my breath, "Fuck you, I never get the 8th page."

"Well, now here's the bigger reason to actually get 8 pages. Otherwise, you both will be stuck here forever."

My eyes widened, I put my hand to my chest and shook my head furiously. Fuck this! Evan can't live like this! It's a hell in this nightmare!

"Hey, on the bright side. If one of you's die, there's still a chance to escape. If one of you reach the 8th page, you'll both be set free."

 That's how the game works on the computer whenever you play with others. Interesting.

I need to find the pages. I need to find Evan.

I looked around the area, it was hard to tell where I was at because of the fog but I could clearly see that I was by one of the tree's in front of the mansion. I examined the tree carefully until I spotted that dirty white-yellowish paper. I knew there was a page here. I didn't hesitate one bit to grab it and stuff it in my pocket.

"Player H2O Delirious has found the first page."

"You bet I did." I whispered to myself.

I heard the slender music pick up behind me. I didn't panic, I don't do that anymore, I got used to it. I bolted around the tree and ran to one of the most famous hiding spots, the bushes. 

As soon as I hid in one, I realized that Evan was still playing the game with me. Evan better be fucking hiding or running.

"Player Vanoss has found the second page."

That spiked up the Slender music in a flash, it feels like the volume is at 100. I covered my ears and closed my eyes, blocking out the sound and vision.

Vanoss' POV

I grabbed the piece of paper that was on the back of the house, putting it in my back pocket.

"Player Vanoss has found the second page."

That really turned up the music, two pages in 3 seconds, take that Slender.

I ran inside and looked around, I needed to hide. Jonathan always talked about how you either run or hide and I know that I can't out run Slender forever, so hiding was the best option. I spotted a table with some old dusty sheet on it. It looked like an old Kotatsu from the angle I was looking at it from. I ran over to it and got underneath the table.

I stayed silent. I needed to be a mute until the music goes away. Jonathan always talked about this. I knew exactly what to do because of his big mouth.

- Flashback -

"When you get a page. You either run for your life or find somewhere close to hide. It's basically like the game online, you run away from Slender."

"So in the nightmare, it's different? You can do both?"

"Technically, yes. You can hide from Slender and since he doesn't have x-ray vision in the nightmares, he can't spot you so easily. You would either have to make a lot of noise or run right in front of him."

"So what happens when he catches you in the nightmare? Is it different from the game? Do you just see his his suit and then game over?"

"....."

"Delirious?"

"No. That's not what happens."

"Then what does?"

He looked at me with those baby blue eyes of his, there was a hint of sadness and a hint of pain in them. He began to frown, "A slow painful death. It really - really hurts, it's like you are actually dying in the real world. All you can do is scream and hope that the process is fast."

I put my hand on his back and started rubbing circles, you can tell he was on the edge of tears. "Is that why each night, for the past week, you've been waking up screaming and crying? Because of the pain you have to go through when you lose..?"

He nodded slowly, "Yeah, Vanoss. That's exactly why I wake up horrified - crying - screaming - shaking."

- End Of Flashback -

I sighed at the memory and the music finally died down. I got out of my hiding spot and looked around.

Time to look for Jonathan and more pages.

3rd POV

As time passed by, the two couldn't find each other.

"Player H2O Delirious has found the third page."

All they could find was the pages that they were desperate to find.

"Player H2O Delirious has found the fourth page."

They kept searching, with or without each other. They knew they had to keep going.

"Player Vanoss has found the fifth page."

But,

Jonathan was very desperate to find him. To spot his favorite red jacket. To see those chocolate eyes. To find the Canadian he loved for a long time.

"Player H2O Delirious has found the sixth page."

Evan was yearning for him. He wanted to see his light blue hoodie. To see those baby blue eyes. To find the psychotic he loved deeply.

- - - - -

And that's when he saw him.

He saw him in the distance.

That red jacket. That jet black hair. That human he was hoping to find.

He called his name, he shouted it, he screamed it at the top of his lungs and ran to him. 

The other male turned around and smiled widely and shouted the others name back. 

He saw that blue jacket he was praying to find ever since he got into this mess. His sparkling blue eyes in the distance came closer.

He tackled the other to the floor and just hugged him tightly, whispering, "Vanoss.."

The other smiled and kissed his head, "Hey Delirious."
