H.O.S.P.I T.A.L

Chapter 5

Who was it that told eric that he couldn't see the others? The three robots that he now despises. So far there was nothing that he could see except doors that said Caution or Maintenance room. Eric stopped at a door and pressed his ear against it.

"Miss, these robots are incredible, how'd you manage to make such human-like things?" An audible click was heard and then nothing, Eric rose a brow and backed his head away from the door. There were sounds of footsteps and items being tossed around now in that certain room, Eric wanted to know who that is or was. Pausing, Eric rested his hand on the knob and took a deep breath...he twisted the knob and opened the door.

He couldn't move, his eyes were glued onto a hideous robot. His fears of meeting his death were near as anxiety rushed through him.
The eyes of the robot stared immensely at Eric, as if it was looking into his soul. Eric shuffled back as the robot still stared, it was then Eric finally knew why the robot couldn't move. Its arm was trapped underneath scraps of metal and paint buckets, it sighed in spite of no luck on getting its arm out.

It looked guilty and avoided eye contact, making Eric feel a little sorry for the robot before him.
Eric slowly edged his way to the robot and noticed that it was crouching, it's metal suit was ripped up and tainted with blood stains...who's blood stains though?
"I don't know you but I'll help you, that is if you tell me who you are after." Eric said, the robot still looked away. Getting to work, Eric removed the metal scraps and buckets as some buckets leaked paint on to Eric's arms. Once done with the task, the robot stood up and looked at it's freed arm...it didnt speak or look at Eric.

Now the bad tension was back, only worse. His body was slammed against the wall as the robots face closed in on his.
"YOU DON'T BE-BE-BELONG H-HERE!" The robot yelled, Eric whimpered as the grip of it's hand tightened. It's ugly red teeth were inches away from Eric's face, it's grin was nothing compared to what movies showed. Eric closed his eyes and let a single tear slide down his face.
