( Note-.... I know she locked the gate thing, but I'm changing that part.... ignore it....... Obviously the creature that is chasing after me IS NOT real( aka in the game ) ... It's only here for the story....)


Sebastian and I had rushed down the hole they dropped into. Navigating throughout that cave in the search for them as I heard gunshots. Rushing up to find Joseph defeating some creatures as I approached. Looking at him and Kidman with a nod, "You two alright?" She looks at me as she approaches, "Just a few bumps, we're fine." My eyes scanned them both to make sure of it, "You're lucky to be alive." Turning around, "You coming Sebastian?" Having a teasing smirk on my lips as he walks up and flicks my forehead, "Behave." Which of course I pout at. Turning around, "Alright, where do we go from here?" Joseph slips up and eyes the black gate I'm staring at, "Sebastian and I will lift this. One of you must climb under and unlock the door from the other side." "I'll do it." "We're counting on you." Looking at Kidman before I stepped back and out of the way. Giving her a nod as they lift the thing and she goes under it.
Moving over to the gate as Kidman unlocks it from the other side. I opened the gate, holding it open for the men as I stepped through after them, closing it shut behind me. 'What the fuck happened? I wonder how she got in that cube in the first place. Then the ground caving in underneath them, something doesn't add up.' Getting snapped out of my thoughts as Sebastian runs off down the halls screaming with Joseph attacking Kidman. I went to stop Joseph but I got teleported to a different location. I turn around, holding my head, spotting that man again. A smirk was resting on his features as he summoned up something. " Have fun dealing with your past traumas." watching him vanishing off, leaving me alone with this monstrosity.
Eyeing the creature before me, extremely tensed up. Every single one of the items that was used on me from my past is present from within this creature. I have no bullets in the gun, I used them all on the creatures trying to save Kidman. The creature comes charging at me as I rush off, "No.. this can't be real. None of this is real, it can't be happening." Ducking once it swung at me, rolling away in time before it stomped on me. "You're a worthless piece of shit. I should have never had you, you should have never been born. Now it's time I make up for that by killing you right here and now!" The creature sounded just like my mother, "How is that possible?" Thinking to myself as it slammed its fist into my head, sending me to the ground, blood trickling down the side of my face. "Hmm. Your death, the pain we will cause you. It will be beautiful. By the time we are done with you, you won't be recognizable." The voice distorted to sound just like my father.
Diving away again, sliding down the wall, holding my head, shaking hard. I was trying so hard to hold in my tears. " None of this is real, you aren't here! Both of you are dead!" Taking a fist full of my hair as it yanks me to my feet, "Is that so? Why are we here then. Why are you bleeding from the head then? Wake up you stupid bitch! Face it, you will die right here and now!" Slamming a knife into my arm, and slicing it downwards. Dropping me to my feet and kicking me hard in the stomach. Crying out softly, kicking the thing back as I slowly moved away. 'I don't know how I can fight this thing, I don't have a weapon. Dammit.' Glancing around me before I punched a glass, taking a shard of it into my hand and turning towards the creature. It was human size, not buff or anything. It will be easier, I hope. ' This glass shard will have to do, let's hope I can do this and not die.' "You think you can kill me? Go ahead and try!" Launching forward at me as it bashes my head, sending me to the ground once more, slamming the same weapon down, hearing a sickening snap of man bones. "Oh I'm not done yet." Taking my hurt arm and yanking me to it, slamming a knife into my gut and twisting it. Crying out again, kicking it back once more, slicing at its face, aiming for its eyes as I managed to slice one of them. "Ah fucking bitch!" Holding its eye as it wraps its hand around my throat, squeezing tightly before using its hand that was holding its injured spot to punch me repeatedly, earning more cries of pain from me, "Just. Fucking. Die!" Taking my arm that was injured once again and twisting it in that spot. Crying out louder, yanking my arm free and slicing at the same eye, "Fuck you!" Forcing it to drop me I glanced around quickly, spotting a vent as I scoot back into it quickly, moving to the far back of it, hoping that this thing is too big and can't fit. I watched as it tried to fit itself into it but couldn't. " Thank God." Tearing the other side of my shirt and wrapping my arm, hissing out at the pain as I eyed the creature before me, watching it back up and to the other side of the room eyeing me down. My entire body hurts, I have lots of broken bones. My arm is useless now. I can barely see out of one eye from the beating it caused me.
The door slams open as Kidman steps into the room. I watched her before my eyes traveled to the creature as it vanished off into the shadows. My eyes traveled to her as her eyes were massive, she was eyeing the spot where it once was. Watching her eyes travel to the vent as she walked over and knelt down, "Jasmine. Thank God, are you alright?" I was unable to speak, my PTSD was triggered. She holds her hand out for me to take, "come on, let's get going." Slipping my hand into hers as she pulls me out and stands me to my feet. My hands slid to my chest, shaking hard, trying to keep my emotions in check. She takes a look at me before sitting me down, "You look like hell, what was that thing?" Tearing some more of my shirt as she wraps my injuries, "Can you walk?" I shrugged, looking down, "I can barely stand, we'll find out." My eye was all blurred up, "I can't see out of one eye." "Dammit, alright hang on." Our surroundings change as I fall to the ground again, holding my head. She untucks her shirt, tearing some of it as she tries it around my eye, "This will have to do for now. What the hell was that thing, what's going on?" Glancing around her surroundings, "Doesn't help that we are constantly being teleported to new locations every 5 minutes. Wait.. This house. No... it can't be.... " I wasn't answering her, I had nothing to say. I didn't know what the thing was.
Walking around the house, the best I can that is, taking in my surroundings as I followed after her, "If you didn't realize it yet, this was my childhood house. Let's get going." Slipping through the front door, walking down some steps, "You don't have to talk to me about it, but I am here to listen if you wish to." "I can't talk about it." Managing to get back to normal, fully. "That's fine, just letting you know I am here. You're a strong, brave, independent woman. So seeing you in such a state, it wasn't satisfying." She was about to say something else before she spotted something. My eyes followed hers, landing on Leslie, "Leslie! Leslie! Stop!" Thunder claps as the lights go out and the only thing that can be seen is her flashlight, "You going after Leslie?" "Yes. Mobius needs him for something. I have to bring him back with me." "Whatever. if I were you, I wouldn't do it. I wouldn't do anything for these people." "Thought you were loyal." " They think I am, but something about all of this, everything they told me, it doesn't feel right. Now that I am here, that feeling is more intense now, none of this adds up." "Don't try and stop me alright." " I don't care, don't expect me to help you." "I don't need your help." "Very well. What do we have to do?" Finding it hard to focus and stand at the moment. She takes a look around, eyeing the spot where the statue once was before seeing a missing spotlight, "Find the missing spotlight and place it here." I slipped off in search of it.
"Found it, come on." Hearing her as I turned and walked back to the center of this place watching her place it in its spot, "Nothing is happening. Wait this one is broken." "I'll use my flashlight." Walking to the broken one and shining her flashlight in the center as the statue appears and a door opens, "By the way, I got some more letter pieces, here take them." I take them and knelt down, placing them on the ground, "Looks like we only need one more. Let's hope we can find that last one. Come, let's get going shall we." I picked them up, tucking them into my pocket and walking off with her.
Dropping down, ignoring the pain it caused me as she vanishes off again, "Dammit. Not again." Moving through this place, pulling myself up and out of the hole. Crying out at the pain it caused me. I looked around the place I was in, "Where am I? Where did Kidman go?" Hearing a bell in the distance, "The church? Very well, she might be going there." Heading towards that location, spotting so many creatures, lowering down to the ground, moving towards it slowly. I spotted Kidman with Leslie. "She must have been the one to ring the bell. Maybe I can do the same to distract them so I can slide through and catch up to her." Giving a nod to myself, slipping up to the bell tower place thing. Avoiding the creatures as I pick up an ax just in case I would need it, slowly grasping the ladder, hoping that a creature hasn't spotted me yet. I slipped up the ladder and approached the bell rope, taking a hold of it and gave it a good tug. A ring erupted from the bell as I quickly dropped down and slid around the creatures that moved away from the door and towards the sound of the bell.
When I saw I was in the clear, I rose to my feet and slid through the door. Moving through this cave slowly, keeping my guard up and eyes peeled. I found an opened safe, "Good she found the last one. Now how do I get out of here?" Climbing some stairs, seeing the exit, "Oh good, it's about damn thing." Walking out and dropping down ignoring the pain it caused me, moving through this place and pushing open the gate, stepping through. Something comes charging at me as I panicked, darting around it, barely. Forcing myself to ignore my pain, running towards the other gate the best I can that is. ' Please, please don't let me die here, let me make it!' Sliding through and closing it shut, locking it. I turned towards the church, climbing the steps and slowly opening the door, holding my head as a sharp pain ran through it again. I glanced up, spotting the hooded guy from before. I know Kidman sees me but doesn't make it obvious, good. I rushed up, leaping onto his back, my arms around his neck, "Take the boy and get out of here!" Before she could, she vanishes off again alongside the boy.
Trying to hold onto the male, but I was grabbed roughly by my hair. Being tossed over his shoulder and tossed down hard. He kneels down, wrapping his hands around my neck and begins to choke me, slowly standing up, lifting me into the air as I was dangling there. The door bursts open, "Jasmine!" 'Sebastian's here, about damn time.' I watched the hooded man stare up and into my good unwrapped eye before they widened. He dropped me and vanished. I laid there, holding my throat, "My God, are you alright? I didn't see who it was, was it that hooded guy?" Nodding, looking up at him, "I'm alright. Kidman was here with that Leslie boy, but then vanished off again. I saved her from that hooded guy, that's all that matters." "Wrong. You could also have been killed if Joseph and I didn't come through those doors. Did he do all of this to you before we arrived?" Watching his eyes examine my injuries, "You know what I meant. And no, it was something else, he summoned something that resembled my past..." "Well, I'm glad your alright.. umm.. ish. You know what I mean." Standing me to my feet, "Come.
