*Halloween night*

*Hellbents pov*
You ready? I ask Sal. Yup, just let me tell Tolop something she says back. She comes out two minutes later. Now I am she smiles. Are you sure you wanna go to the nightmare realm? Might be a bit scary I ask as we get into my car. We're not just going to the Nightmare realm, we're going to see a scary movie she smiles back. She has done her face up to be a zombie. Nice, which movie? I ask. Night of the living dead. She replies. I gulp. Im not a scardey cat but Sal has a really creepy side to her and if she decides to take it out at the movie, things will get frightening. Don't worry I won't stare into your eyes and freeze you into a statue she hisses. I swallow. We arrive at the cinema. You scared of a kids movie? She laughs. Me? Pfft, no I say back. We'll see about that. Don't wanna wet your pants. You didn't bring spare clothes with you she laughs again. We find seats. I take off my jacket. Omg what is this on my hand? I shout, pretending to be scared. Sal looks at it. She screams, jumps and runs to the bathroom. I got Melissa to paint a fake spider on it with a snake. She creeps back just before it starts. Warning: may contain wild scenes. Based on a true story. Not suitable for teenagers. What do they think we are? Kids? She complains. It starts. Lightning cracks in the movie. She eats her popcorn, as if she's at home. I try taking some. She slaps my hand. Mine, get your own her mouth full of popcorn. I glue my eyes to the screen. The teacher brings out a doll: This doll was found yesterday in the boiler room, this morning it was in the principal's office, anyone know how it got there. Sal is clearly unimpressed with the acting. Wow, this is such a scary movie she comments. Life lesson: don't bring Sal to the movies unless you want commentary and sins through it. Sal, I need to pee I say. And what's that got to do with me? Are you gonna do it in your pants? She asks, sarcastically. I roll my eyes and go to the bathroom. As I'm washing my hands I run into a guy. He has his beanie on. You're not here alone? He asks. No, I'm with my friend. He stops. Bit of advice, if you go to the forest, don't go too far in, tonight's the night the black eye kids appear. If it's a full moon, they will turn into your twin from another dimension. I dry my hands. No, I'm going to the Nightmare realm I say. Watch out for the deceased bodies of dead guinea pigs. Back a few decades, scientists tried mixing their DNAS with Rats, it failed and now it's said that the mutant bodies ghosts roam the warehouse. I go back to the screen. Hellbent, while you were in the bathroom, I felt an eerie presence pass me. I take a drink of Pepsi. I meet this guy in the bathroom. He says don't stray too far into the forest and be careful in the Nightmare realm I tell her. I'll bear that in mind if I ever wanna build a house on an ancient Indina burial ground. I roll my eyes and look at the screen. Blood litters it. The kids have turned into zombies. Any criticism for this part? I ask. Suddenly, an eerie presence passes my ankles. I look on my shoulders. Sals eyes are closed on my shoulders. I watch the rest of the movie until it's over. I shake her awake. Any reasons for walking me up? She yawns. Nightmare realm I remind her. Oh yeah. She gets her things and we walk out to the opening. I spot the same guy I spoke to in the bathroom. Be careful sir he whispers. Sal, that's the guy I saw in the bathroom I hiss to her. Did you bang him? She asks. What? No. You know I'm straight I reply back. Dude, I was joking and she runs to the car. We arrive to the Nightmare realm. Get ready for a night of horrifying thrills says the tour guide. Ya, a night of horrifying thrills that will make no sense Sal whispers to me. We walk to the first room. Now, this room was where an experiment involving rats and guinea pigs. They tragically died- the animals, not the scientists- in it and now it's said that the mutant bodies roam this building he says. Sal looks unimpressed. She claps sarcastically. We go into the next room. Good luck here the tour guide says and before we ask, he goes through the other door. We and the other people are trapped in here. Notes on the door Sal notices. She tears it off and reads it aloud: Dear guests. Welcome. You are now trapped in this room. You have to find the key to open the window, them you'll find your way out. She looks at it. Wow, so lame. She complains and laughs. She gets the flashlight on her phone. Put the flashlight on your phone and look for the feckin key she directs. Everyone does that. Found it says a Brazilian woman. Sal takes it. Thanks, now where's the window? She looks around. Up there I point to the cupboard and her eyes follow my finger. She climbs on the table under it and opens the window. Got the door key she shouts. She jumps down and goes to the door and slots in it and twists it. We all go through first. Me and Sal go out last. AHHHH! She yells. What happened? A worker who doesn't look well paid, comes out from behind. Sal elbows him and catches up with the crew. It passed much more quicker than I thought. Hope you enjoyed yourself chirps the tour guide. No Sal mumbles under her breath. Come back next year, and be careful for clowns he yells as we go out. She goes to the car. Let's go to the forest she says, emotion and expression less. I drive to the forest. She gets out, before I park the car properly. I look up. It's a full moon. I remember what the guy said in the bathroom: if you go to the forest, don't go too far in, tonight's the night the black eye kids appear. If it's a full moon, they will turn into your twin from another dimension. I see Sal walking in the deep forest. I run. She runs as well. I loose her for five minutes then I find her, standing on a bridge. She's on the edge. It's a high bridge and the water is very deep. SAL, NO! I yell. She looks behind her, jumps and nearly slips. I run forward and catch her in time. Get off a me she says in an Irish country girl accent. No, not until you explain yourself. You know good and well what would have happened if I hadn't saved you. I bring her on the bridge. Why did you do that? Her eyes full of tears. What? Killing yourself? I was saving you I yell. You are so annoying at times she yells back. She starts walking away. I run after her. Sal, I- I stop. I hear a werewolf howl and suddenly four black eye kids appear in front of me. I look up. The full moon is now a half moon. They start walking in sync. I run. I grab Sal by the wrist. Run. She takes her other hand and Yanks off my hand. What the fuck are doing? I'm walking home she yells. I look behind me. The black eye kids are approaching. Sal, these black eye kids are dangerous, just believe me, I'll get us home safely I plead. She smacks me across the face and runs. I get in the car and follow her. She runs to a pub and stops to catch her breath. I get out and go up to her. Stop running away like this I beg. She ignores me and walks to the apartment complex. When I get there, Her and Melissa are having a yelling competition so I pop some popcorn and listen. AT LEAST I DON'T GO AROUND SPREADING GOSSIP RUMORS ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE BEHIND THEIR BACK yells Sal. So what are you gonna do now? Go crying to your parents? Which parents? Smarts back Melissa. I go in there. Sal has her hands around Melissa's throat. I push Sal off her. Sal told me a few days ago that she didn't have family. Melissa must have found out. Sal sighs and goes out, banging the door on the way. You took it way too far, Melissa I say to her. I don't give a crap about her. It's not my fault she's a friendless slut she yells back. I go out. I go up to the rooms. Sals leaning against a wall. I'm not blaming you I whisper to her. She elbows me and goes to her room.
