Faces and masks: City of Fear

Chapter 10 - ("Again the girl in the mask")

Emily's POV

— Are you afraid of what you can't see? Ha, ha, ha, ha! — even when we left little Sally's room and bedroom, we could still hear the eerie, bone-chilling laughter of the black-and-white clown. I put my hands over my ears. Fortunately, the sound soon ceased.

We went through the fourth door that opened. In front of us was another long corridor lined with computers. I went to the first one after reading what was written.

This included the game Minecraft, which my brother liked to play on his tablet. It was possible to include and play a little. And clear stump, my curiosity won and I pressed the button. On the screen here same emerged blockbuster. A man with glowing white eyes. Nothing else. I shrugged and turned off the computer, but when I turned around, I realized I shouldn't have turned it on at all. Larry turned pale again and held Jenny's hand tightly. Himself fears, but under this its protects. Well done.

— Oh my God... Even Minecraft possessed by these demons... - tired voice muttered Sally, putting his hand to his forehead, which is standing next to him Sally giggled, covering his mouth with his hand. Then she pressed herself. Children's curiosity.

The second computer had two games " exe."although, I have no idea what that means. First there was a terrible picture on it. A black-haired boy with empty eye sockets and no hands. He has a cap turned back on his head and is wearing a white hoodie.

"It's probably part of the game." but through second the has changed and now was portrayed already familiar me pony Pinkie pie, only here she was bloody-red, not pink, and with black eyes.

The third computer had a real Screamer. Even I managed to jump in surprise. It was a picture of Mickey mouse, but covered in blood, and all accompanied by eerie music.

- Oh no, it's a Suicide Mouse video. Are we cursed again? Larry said desperately, and we both shrugged and continued down the hall.

"Dude, we've been cursed at least twice before, according to that Laughing clown. So, one more, one less, what's the difference. Sally grinned, getting a poke in the shoulder from the brown-haired man and a chuckle from the little girl.

— Yes, I see you are an optimist, Sally. Jenny smiled nervously. A drop appeared above my head. Seriously, nothing changes in this life.

Passing through the corridor, we saw at the end of it a familiar silhouette. A girl with wavy blond hair pulled back in a ponytail, and green eyes whose face was covered by a silver mask. Dressed in a long grey cloak with hood atop dresses. She smiled warmly when she saw us, and especially the little girl who had thrown herself into her arms.

"Thank you, Sally. The demons have driven me here to a standstill! They can't kill me thanks to the mask, as it protects me from the dark forces. Dee created her!

— So you're another of Sally's 'big sisters'?" Larry stepped forward, staring at her. - Now I feel relief! as if to prove it, he took a deep breath.

"Wait! I stepped forward to say the name. That look, that smile ... it all fits. It remains only to see the face! She smiled warmly at me.

— Now I know I can trust you, so I'll show my face." Especially you, Emily. with that, she removed the mask from her face, tucking it into the pouch at her waist. "My name is Rachel Northwest. Nice to meet you. Well, we've already met Emily. I was the one who had helped her survive and trained her during our incarceration.

Rachel! I leapt into her arms, wrapping my arms around her slender frame and burying my nose in her lush blond curls.

"Well, well, it's all right, Amy. I'm sorry I left you and went into hiding for so long. I was afraid you'd follow me, and I couldn't tell the whole truth. But now that you're grown and strong enough, I can finally come back into your life. Now everything will be as before. she hugged me back, pulling the hood off her head and placing her warm hand on the top of my head.
