I finally woke up the next morning. With my head pounding nonstop, I go to the bathroom to brush my teeth. The mirror in front of me stared back. Besides looking at my normal face and structure, I see an extremely pale, broken body with my veins showing the slightest blueish color.
'What am I'm looking at? Is this me, me all this time?'
Hair that used to be a shady brown is now jet black. I didn't understand, I didn't want to understand. In shear fear I thru-up. My hacking and gaging sounds echoed through my ear drums. If I wasn't in the bathroom, you think someone was shoving a machete down my throat and slicing me through. After about 15 minutes of hell, my mouth closes and I breath once again.
"Bella are you ok in there"?
Mannequin, a voice I've known for only 5 days, spoke through my closed bathroom door. But I didn't respond, I had no strength to speak.
"Bella please answer".
My sink, in a gruesome scene, was covered in only thick red and blue blood, with a pint of purple. My blood was dropping slowly off the sink and onto my porcelain feet.
"Bella I'm going to bust this door down if you don't reply!".
Resisting the urge to thru-up again halted me from speaking.
'Don't come in, don't come in, don't come in'.
This exact same feeling was what I felt yesterday, while I killed those monsters. A feeling of no control, feeling of madness. I drilled my nails into the sink, instantly breaking the whole entire sink into pieces.
"What's wrong!?".
Mannequin had already bashed throw the bathroom door but immediately stopped as she saw the horrifying mess. My head was pounding like a drill on full power, it wouldn't stop. I couldn't bare look at the direction of her. My lips was drained in more blood as every second went by.
"I.......Have to call the others".
Her stuttering wasn't surprising as she left in a hurry. I don't even know what I've would have done if I saw what she saw. A ghostly dead figure puking blood everywhere with smashed sink pieces all over the floor.
"Uhmmm... she's in there".
No one seemed brave enough to talk, because as everyone walked in, no one said a word. Only was the steady breathing keeping the bathroom alive. However, Pyramid Head, silently spoke softly.
"Who's your mother"?
Who's my mother? I questionable look up at him.
Before answering I hack up more blood.
"I never met my mother. I don't know who my mother is. I only know her name.".
"Was her name Amber"?
I was shocked. No puzzled.
"How do you know that"?
Pyramid Head pointed to my stomach.
"Your far from a normal girl. You have a history here. In Silent Hill. Your mother was pregnant with you while she lived here. A religious riot broke out, children were taken while adults were killed for not believing in Christ. You and your father escaped without her, resulting in a deadly curse".
A deadly curse? Who cursed us?
"Did they curse my mother"?
"No, they didn't curse your mother or father. Once you left, they captured Amber and tortured her into telling where you and your father went. After weeks of painful treatment Amber continued to keep her mouth shut. So, in retaliation, they cursed you, Bella to eternity to the wrath of Alexia and origins of Silent Hills worst memories".
I stepped back into mannequins arms. I wanted to believe what he said, but it all didn't make sense. The part about the religious riot and the "wrath of Alexia", is so confusing. Why would a riot even began? Where there many different religions around the town of Silent Hill? Who's Alexia? I want to know more.
"Is there more about it. I want to to know everything".
Pyramid Head looked away from me.
"There's a lot you don't know but right now isn't the time to know, we have to treat you so you don't bleed to death".
Pyramid Head grabbed my hand softly, leading me into the spare bathroom across his room.
"Everything went wrong after I met that women".
"What women"?
"Before I passed out and got picked up by Nurse, a mysterious woman came up to me saying "for the creation of god" or something of the sort".
I repeatedly swallowed so I could speak as clear as possible. The blood surrounding my mouth was still wet and new.
"Is that what you said early but I didn't hear straight".
"Ohh yeah, but I just said nothing so I didn't bother you".
"You don't bother me".
The most peaceful tone flowed out Pyramids Head mouth. I wanted to immediately melt onto the floor.
"Thanks". I said hiding my extremely red face.
"Once I give you the shot everything should turn back to normal".
A small needle pricked me in my arm. However the pain was not shortened.
"It's going to hurt for a while, but the extreme nausea and abnormalities in your skin will go away.
"Thanks for you help".
"Don't thank me. If it came down to it I would only help you".
Long dead silence goes between us. What does he mean?!
"W w w what I mean is that I like helping people who need help you know".
"Yeah I understand".
For the first time ever I felt a huge jump in my heart as Pyramid Head walked out the bathroom. Is this what love at first sight feels like?
Hope you enjoy.
