Mark's P.O.V

I walked through the door and saw darkness. The only light I could see was in the white rivers. I touched the white with my finger, hissing as I felt the sting of pain. Echoes of laughter ensued, rising fear from my emotions. A spotlight showed a person in a metal cage. I walked carefully towards the man in the cage before I heard a sigh.

"Mark, you have come to this very point" The man said
"I didn't have a choice. Who are you?"
"You chose to walk through the door. You should know who I am"
"Turn around, be polite"
"I have been polite to you in life, but this isn't life. This is your hell"
"Oh, I was wondering where I was"
"Because I knew that was going to be your next question. I have known you since you were born"
"Then tell me who your are. Show me"

The man turned around staring at me with his old eyes. My own eyes widened in shock and tears watered my eyes. I couldn't believe who I was facing.

"Hello, my son"

My own father was in my own hell.

"Dad? Why are you here?!" I cried
"Because losing me is in your hell. One of the most depressive moments in your life"
"Dad, let me help you get out of this cage!"
"You can't open this cage. Not until you complete the final test"
"What the hell is my final test?!"

A female laughter could be heard in the distance. The laughs got closer and the cage holding my father yanked up into the air. The surprise knocked me off my feet as I fell to the ground.

"Mark...Edward...Fischbach" The female voice boomed

I instantly recognised the voice in this hell place.

Carla.

"You worthless man!" She continued "You weakling, you stupid time waster!"
"Your my final test, aren't you?"
"You think you will live a happy life, then breathe in this!"

Her appearance made to my eyes in the form of a demon version of her. Pale complexion, black hair, I could feel her darkness. She raised her hands and the white rivers turned into a dark lava. Out of the dark lava, came two doctors and nurses, crawling.

"What the f*** do you want?!" I screamed at her
"You shall surrender to me. Watch your worst nightmares!"

The doctors and nurses grabbed me, dragging me away from Carla and into a chair. I tried to struggle from their grasp, failing and feeling the straps around my wrist and ankles. My test must be to survive my worst nightmares.

Carla brought out a dog. Chica. I looked at Chica and yelled out for her. She saw me and barked. Before she could come, I saw Carla grab her by the collar and knee her in the stomach. Chica whined and cried as Carla started beating Chica right in front of me. I screamed, begging for Carla to stop. I sobbed hard as Chica was beaten until she couldn't stand up anymore, laying on the ground, whining in pain.

"Carla! You b***h, you monster!!" I angered at her
"Oh Mark, this is only the beginning"

She clicked her fingers and my father in the cage lowered down near the big lava river on my right.

"DAD!!!" I screamed
"My son, remember, if you don't like it, don't believe-"

Carla clocked and sent the cage into the lava, my father screaming as he was submerged into the lava. I could feel my heart ache so badly while Carla laughed at my pain. Sadist.

"How does it feel Mark? Want to die?"
"You lunatic! You killed my father, you beat up Ryan, Matt and my pet, you are torturing me"
"Good, because I have something to finish you off"
"What could you possibly do?!"

She smirked and sent electricity to a room. I could hear screams, my friends screaming with pain. I could hear Wade, Bob, Jack, Matthias, Amanda, almost every friend I could think of. Except for Georgia. Carla walked closer to me and turned me around to see a limp body on the ground. I could tell who it was just by the hair.

"Georgia! Wake up!" I called out to her

A man walked from out of nowhere and looked at Georgia with a sickening grin. Georgia groaned into her wake and saw the man. She tried to run but she couldn't. The man had grabbed her by the wrist as she screamed. I tried to budge from the restraint with no result. Three other men walked from behind me, chuckling and helping the man.

Georgia screamed and cried for help. I screamed for her but it was as if she couldn't hear me. Three of the men were holding her down while one of the others grabbed a knife. This isn't real! It can't be real!!

"This isn't real!" I screamed
"Oh but it is" Carla assured "And it's one good show!"

I heard Georgia's scream as the knife pierced her chest, holding her chest down. The men holding her down starting scratching her and biting her. They were trying to cannibalise her while she screamed in agony.

This isn't real. This isn't real...this isn't real!!!!

"THIS ISN'T REAL!!!!!"

My scream of determination made Georgia disappear. That's the solution! The test isn't whether I can survive my worst nightmares, it's whether I believe in my worst nightmares! I continued to scream that is wasn't real as people started disappearing. Screams were ending. I was free from the restraints. I saw everything turn into white. Carla screamed and ran towards me with a sword.

I fell to the ground and continued yelling the words. I'm not going to die because my hell isn't actually real. It's just a test. I looked at Carla in the eyes and she kept a fast pace towards me. She swung the sword but the sword and herself disappeared into light.

I was always safe.

Interesting! Now, I know that certain people don't want this series to end. So I want to ask individual opinions on this: Do you want to end the series on this book? I don't mind if you want to have another book of this. It will just be shorter, like this book. Let me know.

Thanks and Smilies!
