Already too far gone I decided to do the only thing I could do. I was going to solve this myself and enter that flower.I was heading forward when I saw something glossy in the corner of my eye. Just past that was a television set hidden in the distance. If there was a television set then there had to be a VHS.
I ran to the TV set to find nothing.
I felt like a fool. I sighed, even so hopefully looked around as if the tape would be conveniently placed before my eyes just as they had been before. As eerie as all this was, I wanted clues, especially if I was going to enter a place with multiple warnings and strangled toys.There! I squinted. On top of one of the bars far above me, hidden beyond reach was a rectangular looking object. I could bet it was the tape. Whoever it was must not have wanted me to find it... but why didn't they just take it then?
I felt grateful for my grabpack, easily grabbing things that were well above my reach. The hands grabbed the object and brought it closer to me. I grinned realizing that this was in fact the tape to the TV. I went over and put it in.
There was a robotic claw on the screen fused with wire and a human bone... I gulped as I heard screaming, running, and banging from the tape.
A man panted as he recorded it. He must have been running as well. "Final log. In relation: 1-0-0-6. The Prototype." Hearing the familiar name I scrambled and pulled out my notebook- I had seen that claw before.
"Coordination and cooperation is evidently within his skillset, as well as the skillset of all other experiments of his type. Though still missing, today's events are no doubt in relation to him. His absence was a flaw in the scientific process, which should have under no circumstances been left unaccounted for. That's why I'm making this log: So that the same mistake won't be made twice."
I felt chills as I heard more screaming. Some screams ended abruptly and something was pounding at the scientist's door. Was.. Was this some kind of massacre?
"Any future experiments will need to be contained and disposed of in a secure location." He then chuckled and began to ramble. "I'm not worried about myself. One breakthrough and I'll be back. We must forge onwards in the name of science. Whether those who are beneath us understand it or not. End of-"
A Loud scream was heard and the tape went silent.
I felt stiff... experiments? I had to assume, these living toys were experiments? These living, breathing, eating-
My breath was shaky. I didn't like where this was going. B-but no! I lived here! This was a toy factory and an orphanage!
No.I lowered my head and kept walking.
No. Nono.
This was dark. This was twisted.
I went through the flower door to enter a hall and slowly... my surroundings shifted to a house?It was a life sized doll house?
What even was this place!?
I took a shaky breath.
I wanted answers... I was starting to get them. I had to stay strong even though I wasn't sure if I could face the truth if Sam WAS involved in this.The orphanage, was it real? Or were we all only potential test subjects?
I would much rather just run out. Find some way to go back through the vents even though I had no idea how I even got here.
I grabbed my head and leaned against the wall, sliding down.I was adopted.
Maybe I was overreacting. What kind of heartless person would use children for scientific experiments? There had to be other hosts..
I should have stayed home. I should have stayed in bed, cozy under my covers not worrying about any of this!
... an uneasy silence went over me as I wiped some tears that I hadn't even noticed had fallen. I didn't want to think.
Even if I could escape and go home... would I be able to live with myself?
If there were people here trapped and begging for help and I saw this and just left.I couldn't get help. No one would believe me. More importantly I'd be ratting myself out for breaking and entering private property. I had to finish this... for Sammy.
