Time passed like in slow motion. The sound of mechanical rumble echoed through the air like thousands of thunders, all of it inside your head excessively.
With all the shock and unexpected encounter, hope was raised as the sound of the car got closer and closer. They could take you away from this bad dream.

However, the male in front of you that was shining with the light and staring deep into your soul innocently turned into terror. The aura of a strange and murderous man, twisted into a dusk aura of fear and monstrosity when his eyes behind the mask turned into pure wrath against the hasty and spontaneous encounter with a challenger. Michael was not willing to let them in his space.

When his head looked up to the outside of the wet underground and then at you felt like death staring directly at you. He simply tossed the dead body of the man away like a rag and quickly made his way to you with heavy stomps. Closing the door behind him with a silent furious tap to approach your small figure, covering your heart with his shadow as aside his tense body, his eyes shined with anger higher and higher. The closer the roar of the motor got, the more Michael's violent instincts screamed at the sanity he held when being with you.

He only kept his knife away from you.

Taking steps back to smash your back at the wall by trying to keep a distance from him all you did was beg for a calmer approach of his "W-What are you doing? Please- There is no one coming!"

No one? Excuses. You knew who was it and so did he.

Your lie didn't last long when a gate was furiously open and the gentle sound of tiers on leaves broke the silence between you two.
As voices came in from a distance and the silence raised like a wave of anguish you stared into Michael's eyes, sweating cold since you had no clue what was his next step.

Not so surprisingly, as the familiar voice of your friend resounded through the air Michael launched toward you with his fists, grabbing you by the throat and smacking your head against the wall while his strong palms covered your mouth. You tried screaming but only whispers of panic came in.

"Are you sure there's someone here?" An unfamiliar voice shouted alerting their close presence.

Michael held you by the neck, lifting you from the ground to stare at his eyes, you had no hint what was behind the mask since the latex expression was a pale and still emotion. Only by his gaze, you could tell he was not satisfied with these circumstances.

"Hel-" You tried screaming, but it was worthless. He strangled you tougher.

Struggling for air your body was twisted around and embraced by the strong arms of Michael, covering your figure with his back while he covered your mouth with his free hand. Holding you by the waist aggressively as well as his head on your shoulder and the heavy breaths that came out from behind the pale mask, the cold plastic against your skin sent shivers down your spine to a painful chill in the bones, if you dared to move or scream again Michael would crack your body in haft with one move.

Your body was tense when feeling all his muscles against you, every single fiber of his clothes on your skin besides his arms wrapping your body around like a metal trap. Why was he so strong? The figure of a gentle cute boy was burned by one of a monster in the shape of a man.

Steps came closer, you cried hoping that someone would find you.

"Yes, I am!" Carl's voice warmed your heart "There was supposed to be a guard here! Right?"
