Lauren's POV

The large figure stood there, i saw as it stood quietly. I moved back, having myself lean back on the wall. "who are you?" i ask, my voice a bit shaky. It remained silent. I looked around for anything that would defend me. I looked at the doorway, the figure was gone, i stood alone, in plain darkness, with only the light of the open doorway.

I stepped forward to see if it really was gone. I sighed in relief and turned around, but suddenly i've greeted the face of hell. "peek-a-boo," his voice boomed as he immediately grabbed me by the neck and hit my back against the wall. I fell onto the ground, grasping for anything to hold onto.

Suddenly my vision went blurry and my sight changed, i cant see anything clear at all. You know how you smudge you're camera? Thats how i feel. I looked up, but no longer seeing the tall man. It was a smaller figure, i knew it was a female as her hair was let down, i just couldn't see her face just as clear. 

"We all have to pay the price, lauren. Which path would you like to take?" she asked me. Her voice echoed in my head. Though her voice, one i've never heard before. "Why am i doing this?" she questioned me. "i'm only doing you a favor. Stay away from the girl down the asylum. Trouble is all she would give you." 

I felt weak to my stomach so i laid on my left arm elbow and breathed heavily. "stay away from the devil on the down quarters, and you'd probably never hear from me again. You can't just make a deal with the devil and walk away. Remember that." she said hastily as she hit me hard against the side of my head and blacked out instantly.
