Man-Eater | Dan and Phil fanfic

Chapter 10: Phil lied

Dan sat in his cold, dark, pure white room, motionless. He had to figure out a way to appear dead so he could get the hell out of there. Dan looked towards the door and sighed deeply, listening to each life as they lived without the realization that there is more to life than the white walls surrounding them or the fidgety, cold floors. The walls seemed to laugh as they kept people in, holding their heads as thoughts flooded in. The lights started to flicker and soon enough all the lights went out making Dan's heart skip a beat and putting him in utter darkness. He listened as the generator made a loud, turning off noise. All of a sudden a terrified voice came over the intercom.

"A man has escaped from room 204, I repeat a man from room 204 escaped."

Then he went off only leaving static behind. Dan quickly ran to the door and started banging on it loudly.

"Hey! Hey! What do you expect us to do? sit in our rooms with this freak on the loose, who could literally take down our doors?"

Without realizing it, Dan hit the door so hard that it broke off its hinges, falling to the floor with a thud. Grabbing the door with both hands he put it against the wall outside. Dan started walking down the hall, this place was larger than he intentionally thought, wires hung from the ceiling and the smell of cigar smoke, mold, and blood filled the air. Dan licked his lips as the smell of the delicious substances hit his nose. He was hungry....so hungry. Dan finally found himself opening double doors and entering an unmarked room, he looked down and found bodies...and blood. Dan freaked out and slammed his back against the door. He had to calm himself, his hunger and his heart beat. Dan walked through the darkened room when he heard a demonic cackle.

"Ah, another one to kill!"

Out of nowhere a man ran out at a fast pace and jabbed a knife into Dan's stomach. He looked down and instead of freaking out as the blood trickled down his shirt, he chuckled and pulled the knife slowly out of his flesh, he already felt it start to heal, Dan dropped it on the floor with a clank, Looking up Dan smiled, The man looked at Dan completely flabbergasted.

"Nice try, asshole you can't kill someone who is already dead."

He grabbed the man by the throat and slammed him against the wall, looking up you could see his eyes had completely blackened with two red pupils. Dan put the man down and put a hand on his chest, he had no pulse.....he was dead. Dan was still upright and smiling. That magic man was wrong, Dan couldn't save Phil, Phil killed himself in his mind. The only way for Dan to die is to do the same.

"Do you think Phil was being 100% truthful, is he truly dead, unsavable, or is there more to this story that meets the eye." A random voice said.

Dan looked around confused.

"Phil wouldn't lie to me, the magic man did, he told me I could!" Dan yelled.

The psycho guy was gone but the smell of him still lingered.

"Or is it because maybe...he doesn't want to be saved."

Dan slammed his fists into the wall.

"Why wouldn't Phil want me to save him, does he like living in this hell or something?"

But the voice didn't answer back, leaving Dan alone again. He had to leave, he to get out of there. Dan quickly ran out of the room, only hearing the sound of his heartbeat.

"What you make of this one?"

Two people in lab coats came walking out of the shadows, a man, and a woman.

"Well even though Dr.Loving's first experiment was complete bust I'd say he's perfect"

"Who says he's a complete bust, Dr.Loving should still have him under his control correct"

"But apparently he killed himself in his mind"

"He may have, but the demon still controls his body"

"So what do we do?"

"We keep an eye on this one, he seems different than the first one Dr.Loving created, stronger, faster and a hell of a lot more feistier. I'd say that with the right push he'd be the perfect killing machine."

"A brawl between best friends I love it"

"And the funny thing is it seems as though Dan is fighting off the demon"

"hmmm"

"Why did he say that Phil told him he couldn't be saved when he can?"

"Because.....Phil is no longer here....its only a monster that sleeps within."

Dan finally got out of the ward, rain started pouring hard leaving Dan stranded in the middle of no where.

"Is this my life now, forever loneliness?" he thought as he started running, the mud squishing behind him.
