Crimson Horror

melancholic magenta pt 1.

As the stars were gazing at the freezing white landscape that surrounded that decrepit, eerie, dark château, the cruel blizzard of the night continued strongly battering the sylvan red roses covering them in a shining, cold, white blanket illuminated by the moon.

"Hey, what the hell are you doing? You've been doing this for the last hour, what are you thinking?" Yubin asked "And what is with those wires?". "Ma'am I'll need to ask you to not touch that if you want to be alive by the time we get out of this hellhole," Joey warned Yubin as he saw her approaching the threads. "Just what hell is this?" she angrily asked. "Just...a...sec...a-aaand...done. Phew that took more work than I thought it would, anyway let's turn this on," he ignored her as he felt relieved from that struggle. As the loner proceeded to turn it on Yubin proceeded to ask the same question, but even angrier.

"Oi, just chill those are traps, and the reason I told you to not touch those threads is because they are highly sharp to the point of cutting your fingers, and on top of that they are electrified, since I turned it on, oh, I almost forgot that those wires are incredibly poisonous, as well as explosive," Joey quickly explained. "WHAT!? Are you mental? You can kill someone with that you freak," Yubin condemned Joey, "Hey, everything is controlled, well, the explosions are, if someone touches the threads without protection they are automatically dead, I mean you can't expected to live when you touch something that is highly sharp, electrified, and above that has the poison of a box jellyfish, so... yeah... I wouldn't recommend touching that at all, besides I am trying to defend myself from those idiots, by the way lets go to other place, it's uncomfortable being here with all the traps around here,"Joey quickly brushed off.

"Are you out of your mind? That is incredibly dangerous as well as being quite retarded, and on top of that no one is here, so stop being so psychotic, on the only thing I can agree with you is that we need to get away from this before someone gets hurt," Yubin asserted as she still was in disbelief with Joey. As Joey heard that statement he burst into laughs "Are you serious? I thought at this point you would realize that this 'courage test' is just an excuse so they can beat me up, I mean why would they put you with me, when they could have included you with someone else?". When Yubin heard that she started to reflect on what Joey said.

As the teens got away from the danger zone they seemed to have their differences. "By the way where did you get the materials?" Yubin dropped a question out of nowhere. "The materials? I got those super sharp threads from the Iranian mafia, they have some connections with the army; the explosives I got them from the North Koreans and the Aussies gave me the poison, is that everything?" Joey answered with ease, "What the fuck? Are you stupid? You're interacting with two of the most dangerous regimes of the world and the second being a menace to my country, how can you be like that? You should be locked up," she outrageously cried, "Hey don't sweat it, I had my doubts too, but leaving politics aside, once you get know them a little better you actually grow fond of them and they are quite hospitable, ya' know, forgetting the part when they tried to force their daughters on me, they are quite nice people, and for your information it isn't my fault that fatso Mcfatty's clan got all the power in the north and Iran has a theocratic dictatorship, blame the Soviets, the Americans and the British for that matter," Joey declared. "You know what? I give up on reasoning with someone like you!!! It's futile," Yubin tiredly remarked.

As the blizzard started blowing more, the moon started glooming more brightly, illuminating that dark, decrepit hallway. The two youngsters kept moving onwards to see what awaited them as they only saw rooms inhabited by spiders and rodents. "Ahh, dammit my ankle, it hurts," Yubin shrieked as she trampled over a wooden stick. "C'mon lean on my shoulder, it seems you can't walk with a bad feet, so...," Joey quickly supported her. The two headed for a somewhat less crumbled space they found a room where they could stay until Yubin could rest her leg. "Thanks for helping me... I really appreciate it," Yubin stuttered. "No need for that, I mean we are supposed to help each other out in the mess that Johnny boy got us in,".
