Hell in Dimensions

9

When I was barely waking up, I could hear Sky sneaking up on us and as she got closer, I quickly said "BOOO!"

"AAAHHHH!" she screamed. I laughed, A LOT. "What's up Sky?"

"Um I.... Where's the food?" She said giggling.

"Come on, let's make pancakes together!" I said getting up. Mark was still asleep like an angel.

We made our pancakes, and Chiara came in rubbing her eyes with her makeup all over her face. She looked bad... She looked tired, and like she didn't have any care for the world.

"Good Morning Chia!" I said very happily.

"Don't call me 'Chia'." She said annoyed.

"Sorry.... You want pancakes?" I said smiling. Sky looked at me with a weird look. She knew that Chiara was not acting normally.

"No." she said without even looking at me.

"Come on, you must be hungry."

"I said NO."

"Not even one..?" I said shrugging my shoulders.

"How many times do I have to tell you that I don't want ANYTHING?!" she said as she smacked the table and almost everything fell off the table.

"Hey, are you o-" Sky said softly and as she was going to touch her, Chiara stood up violently, and she left the house.

"What's up with her?" I asked while I was mixing the dough for some donuts we were going to make.

"I honestly don't know.... She's not usually like this..." She said worried.

A lot of time passed, and we decorated our donuts. I made mine for Mark he says that her favorite colors are red, black, and sometimes pink. So I made him a stripped donut with those colors. Sky made her's blue.

Mark was downstairs preparing his guns and such. I told him about Chiara when we were having breakfast and he was shocked as well.

I knocked on the door, and I opened it quietly.

"Oh hey, come in" Mark said as he reloaded his gun. I hid the donut behind me and Mark gave me a suspicious look.

"What are you doooing?" Mark asked with a funny voice.

"I may have made something for you... Close you eyes!" I said.

He closed his eyes, and I handed out the donut to him. He smelled the scent and he opened his eyes widely.

"Oh my GOD a donut! Thanks babe!!" He said very excited. He gave me a hug and he took a huge bite of the delicious donut.

"Hey... about Chiara, I may have seen a bite on her left shoulder." Mark said as he finished his donut.

"What do you mean?" I said.

"There's something I haven't told you yet..."

I made myself look serious "Go on." I said.

"I had a roommate before you came here. His name was Tom. He was kind of like Sky, but he wore black and red. I met him in a room just like we met Sky and Chiara. He was pretty cool. One time, he got bitten by a Raven Mocker. They are ravens mixed with human features, but I am sure that they are not remotely human."

I was still listening to him, and I sat on the table.

"Tom started to act very weird, and he was a complete asshole. I noticed after a while that he had a weird looking scar on his left arm. I asked him what was it and he just said that he didn't want me to touch him. Basically, after a month he died of-"

"He died of suffocation." Sky said interrupting Mark. She entered the room with her eyes about to cry.

"Sky..." I said standing up.

"He returned to my dimension after dying. There was only his corpse! He was my boyfriend...." She said sobbing.

I hugged her.

"That's why I'm here. I want to make up for Toms' death and I want to finish this trial on his behalf. I didn't know how he got here, I did research and I found about this place." She said as she was recovering.

Mark looked to the floor with sorrow. It was about time to go to the 8th room. We all grabbed our gear, and we left to the tower.
