CHAPTER 1. END.

*Split up from Cassie, Paris heads to the first floor.*

Paris: *sob* *wail*
Cassie... *wail*
... That jerk...

*She heads west and looks at a familiar note.*

"I told everyone... that I'd go with them... So why... have I been left behind...? ... It hurts... It hurts so much..."

Paris: Ooh...

*flashback*

Paris: Mommy's gone! Mommy's gone!
Daddy, I can't find Mommy anywhere! ... Ahh... Waaaaaaaaaaaaaah! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh!!

*flashback ends*

Paris: *sniffle*
... When I'm by myself, I think of the stupidest things...

*She keeps walking around the first floor.*

Paris: ...? I think I just heard somebody calling out...

*Paris walks forward, deciding to follow the voice.*

Paris: ...
...
That was... the first time, huh. The first time... I ever fought with Cassie like that.

*Cassie runs around frantically, looking for Paris.*

Cassie: *pant* *pant*
(From the moment Paris and I parted ways, the fear I'd been harboring since I got here just kept growing stronger and stronger. I felt like something else was in my head... like I was under some alien influence... In my mentally drained state, I ran all through the building, frantically searching for Paris. I just kept calling her name, over and over again. When I finally came to my senses, I found myself standing in the third floor hallway.)
Paris! Paris, where are you?!
Come on, Paris! Don't leave me by myself in here!
*sob* *sob*

*thump*

Cassie: Paris?
Is that you...?

*She walks toward the sound, it growing louder as she neared the girl's lavatory. She entered and heard a strange noise coming from the stall that was second to the left.*

Cassie: ...? (Someone's definitely in there...)

*She slowly began opening the door.*

Cassie: *gasp*

*When she opens the door she finds, to her horror, her sister dangling from a noose.*

Cassie: PARIS!! NOOOOOO!!
Why? WHY?! No! NO!!

Paris: *gurgle* Ca...ss...ie...

Cassie: Paris! You're alive?! Hold on, I'll get you down!

*Cassie reaches up to held Paris, but ends up accidentally strangling her.*

Cassie: Ahhh! Sorry! ... Ooohh, what do I do? What do I do?! *whimper*

The noose around Paris's neck is attached directly to the ceiling, and there's nothing at her feet. All attempts to help are just strangling her further.

*Cassie runs out of the lavatory and grabs a nearby bucket, filled with meat and maggots.*

Cassie: I might be able to use this as a footstool!

*clang* *splurch* *scutter*

Cassie: U-Ulllgh... (This is so revolting... but if it saves Paris...)
... RRLLGGHH!!

*As she dumps out the contents of the bucket, a significant number of maggots have found their way onto Cassie's hands and skirt.*

*With the bucket in hand, Cassie runs into the lavatory to Paris's aid.*

Cassie: Paris! I'm right here!
...
*The filthy bucket falls from Cassie's hands.*

*With blank eyes, Paris swings back and forth slowly in her noose. All life had been completely drained from her face.*

*Cassie takes a step back.*

Cassie: Ahh... aahhh... ahhh...
Noooooooooo!
No...
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
*sob* Why?! Why would you hang yourself?! You were smiling and laughing all this time... Didn't you say we'd find a way out of here together...? Stop this...
Don't leave me all by myself!
*sob* *whimper* Say something!!
Ooooooooaaaaah... Paris...
I want to apologize to you... for what I said... (Up until just a few hours before, I was laughing and playing in school with my sister. Now, here she was, right in front of my eyes... lifeless, hanging from a noose... How could I possible accept this as reality?!)
... I can't believe this is real... I refuse... to accept it... It just... can't be...
