Chapter 4: Hell's Second Strike

"Kyle, his name is. He did.... Weirdly well... I think he's a worthy competitor. For the higher ranks. I don't think he'd go far, but either way, we want torture him. So, we'll keep him alive. Let him kill, until he gets obsessed. Once he's obsessed, we kill him. All of this, we're doing all of this, to reserve the deepest, darkest, pit, of hell for this boy...."

With Kyle...

Kyle is sleeping now, still traumatized from the last night, but he pulled through. As suddenly, his door opened slightly.... The knob turned, and the door creaked. As someone walked in, it was... A kid? It was a girl, as her black hair fell to her shoulders.. "Eh?-" Kyle said as he tilted his head to the side, "Oh! Sorry I came in so suddenly! I'm Denny! Your favorite, friendly, best, awesome, neighborhood, Denny!" Denny said as she smiled and sat on Kyle's bed, right in front of him. As Kyle scooted back a bit before sitting up. "oh... Hi, I'm Kyle..." Kyle said, "Why are you in here? by the way." Kyle asked as he looked at Denny, "Oh, I was snooping around the place, and I was getting chased by guards after accidentally eavesdropping and walking in on a.... "moment".... And now I'm here, but your safe, they don't know that i'm here!-" The door creaked open once again, it was Ava... As she raised an eyebrow, and looked at Kyle.

 "Did I walk in on something?" Ava asked as Kyle shook his head, "No... Its just- This girl came into my room while I was sleeping, and now she's.... Here..." Kyle said as he shrugged, "I don't know, don't ask.." Kyle said before he looked down, "Anyways, Kyle... Someone is calling you in.. Sir. Rix.. One of the chairman's..." Ava said as she walked to Kyle, "Just come with me, and we'll go to him.." Ava said as she offered her hand, and Kyle took it as he followed her to Rix's office. "Well, if it isn't the now famous, and mistake of a boy.... Kyle.... It seems as if you think you could outsmart us? Y'know.... Your nothing, compared to the girl you slaughtered... How did you feel in that moment? Anxious, angry, guilty, sad, or maybe even... Satisifed? Anything along those words?" Sir Rix said, "I uh.... I think.." Kyle said, he couldn't help but see the intent in Sir. Rix's eyes. Those deathly, deeply, utterly unbearably horrifying eyes.

 The way he stared at Kyle, made him feel so... Scared, not at peace, fearful.. And uncomfortable, he didn't even know how to start the conversation... "I was guilty.... And- And uh sad... I felt, uncomfortable, and scared... I didn't know what to think or say... I was at a loss for words I- I felt like I knew exactly what was waiting for me at the end of this trail. It was either death, or a miserable life of guilt. If I even live to see the bright sun or my parents.. If I even live to see the day of an escape.... If I even live to see my friends, or... Ava.. Then I guess, I thought that.... That was it.... That was, the day the darkness opened under my feet, dragging me into this hellish home of spirits and.... And I couldn't take this pressure, and I passed out.." Kyle said..
"Then you'd do a splendid job killing the others wouldnt you...."
