Soap ×Ghost

Chapter 33

-Ghost's Pov-

I woke up on the cold ground. I sat up and looked at my surroundings. This wasn't the enemy compound I had been in.

It was a cold, dark, foggy forest. It was unsettling. I felt a chill run down my spine.

I wrapped my arms around my body in a last ditch effort to stay warm. My breath came out in a cold mist. "Johnny?" I called out hoping soap was here as well.

I walked down the dark, unsettling path in the hope of getting out of here. It started to rain.

I kept walking shielding my face from the onslaught of rain that was pelting at me.

-------------------time skip-----------------

I have been walking for hours now... And I was still trapped in this damned forest.

I heard something behind me so I looked behind.

I was met with red, snake like eyes.

My blood ran cold...

Then I saw it's body...

I was face to face with a massive serpent bigger than a house.

What was this place?

I started to run away from the serpent. I looked behind me and I saw it slithering towards me.

It was silent apart from the thuds of my boots hitting the cold ground.

I turned left in hopes of loosing the snake. Just keep running and don't stop is what I kept telling myself.

I had a spurt of speed the adrenaline causing me to go faster and faster.

-------------------time skip-----------------

I had been running for hours and I was getting tired...

My legs were aching and were starting to shake I wasn't going to last much longer.

I started to pant, I kept running from the masive serpent. I started to stumble and slow down.

I skidded I looked down and saw a canyon so I turned right and started to sprint again I reached a small clearing in the forest and I collapsed unable to run any further.

Turned to the serpent and saw it slithering closed. I closed my eyes waiting for my fate...

"Get back!" A voice shouting and something like a whip crack. I opened my eyes and saw the serpent hiss it's fangs bared.

Another whip crack and the serpent retreated and I gave a sigh of relief.

"Ghost?" The voice said.

I spun around "Johnny!?" I shouted sounding hopeful.

But it wasn't soap...it was someone else.

"R... roach?" I whispered "I thought you were dead?"

He Hung his head down "I am..." He whispered.

"Then...then I must be dead..." I said looking at him...

"Your not dead...but your not exactly alive either..." Roach said.

I looked shocked. I looked at him confused "what do you mean by I'm not dead but I'm not alive either?" I asked.

"It's not your time just yet...your not supposed to die just yet... your in between life and death..." Roach said.

"It's not very appealing...or friendly..." I muttered.

"It's not supposed to... it's supposed to make you want to go back to life..." Roach whispered "soap on the other hand... wants to stay where he is...he got a nice place...a peaceful place so he wants to stay in limbo...but that's impossible...if he stays in limbo he will go to the afterlife..."

Soap was dying...

My eyes widened and I froze at roach's words.

"Wake up..."

"Ghost wake up..."

"GHOST WAKE UP NOW!"
