George couldn't believe what he saw.. He knew his wife was like that.. But he haven't seen her do such before.. It pissed him off.
He had packed his bags and moved to the North side of the hotel. He'd stay there till Beatrice comes, then she'll explain what got into her, at least she has to.. Before he leaves.
But Beatrice didn't come.. He was very mad.. Mad at himself, at everything.
Bruno!.. Bruno!.. He picked his pistol, he'd packed it too in case.. And left... Thoughts running through his mind...He made it to the west hallway...
"Bruno!!.. Bruno!! "... He shouted.. Walking heavily..Christine ran out behind him....
"Hey!! George!! George!! Where have you been??.. We all really need to get out of Here.. He's got Beatrice, we don't know who's next, he's going to..... " The words stuck in her throat when she saw the pistol... She swallowed.. Then took three steps back.. "What are you doing with that?? .. "She asked.. Fear was written on her face..."Oh this??.. Nothing.. I jus brought It in case.. Who's got Beatrice?? Bruno??... I'm gonna kill him.. " His teeth clenched and he made to move...
"No! No! Not Bruno!.. " She was crying... " The man..!! The man on the portrait...!! He killed her... " Her tears flowed.. Soon she was sobbing... She remembered the scene, the broken skull, blood, then the Man... His face..
"Who killed who??.. Where's Beatrice!!! Where's my wife!! " Christine couldn't talk.. Fear wouldn't let her... George saw this and ran off.. To his room...
***************************************************
Bruno whistled as he walked back to his room.. He saw Christine.. She was standing at the hallway.. She wasn't moving.. Just standing there... Staring into space...
"Hey.. Babe, Sweetheart.. Hey.. " He tapped her..
Christine shrieked and let a short scream.. Seeing it was Bruno.. She grabbed him..
"We need to leave here.. This place, He's here.. He'll kill us all.. He's killed Beatrice.. He's coming.. . Coming for us Babe.. Please let's jus get out of here... "She cried and held him tight..
Bruno never knew his wife had this strength in her.. The way she gripped him..
Then he remembered...
"... He's killed Beatrice.. " Christine's voice flowed through his brain.. His heart skipped a beat....."Wait.. Who killed who?? Beatrice?? George??.. " He couldn't make a good sentence..
"No no no.. The man.. He's.. He's huge.. I saw him in a portrait.. In my dreams.. Now he's here.. He's going to kill us.. We need to go.. ".. She fell on the floor crying hard.."Where's George?? "..
"He jus left now.. To his room"..
"C'mon.. Let's go.. " He helped her up..
They ran to George's room... And saw him sitting on the bed... Shocked.. He just sat... Looking into space..
"George..?? "... Christine called out..
"Hey Man.. What's up.. "..
"She's... She's dead.. My wife is dead... I can't find her body... " He said softly not looking up... Then he did.. He looked up.. Straight at Bruno... Anger, hatred... He lifted his gun pointing at Bruno... "My wife is fucking dead... You caused this, didn't you??!! Didn't you!!?? "..."Hey hey hey... Easy man.. I don't know what you are talking about.. I'm no killer Man.. " Bruno took some steps backwards with his hands lifted.... "Chill man.. We'll find who did this... C'mon man put the gun down.. "
"You fucked her... You had sex with MY WIFE!!!! You caused this!! I'll have to kill you.. You Bastard..!! "George spat..Christine was confused... She didn't quite understand what was going on... Her husband would never do that...
"Hey man... I don't know what you are talking about.. Please put the gun down... Let's talk.. "
"Talk about what... " Christine asked.. Her voice was calm.. It was very obvious that she jus finished digesting everything George said... And it tasted bitter... "You had sex with who??!! "
"Babe.. We'll talk about this later.. Please man.. Put the gun down.. "..
"I watched you.. Saw you fuck my wife.. Now she's dead.... I don't even understand what's going on... " He rubbed his hair, walked back to the bed and dropped his whole body on it..
A book fell out...
DEATH WISH..
Christine picked it up... opened it and read the first page... She dropped the book and screamed...
George sprang up, Bruno rushed to where she was...
"What! What is it Babe!!.. "
She couldn't talk... She jus pointed at the book...
George picked it up and read...
"C'mon its jus a write up... How does this relate to my wife's death.. Huh!!! You both jus have this annoying gift... "...
He flipped the pages.... Then stopped.. That was his wife's name.. And there's Bruno there too.. He read what his wife wrote..
"Fuck!! She.. She.... ".. He stopped.. That was not the only text there... The book replied... How is that possible??? He read the reply and froze...Christine and Bruno watched him trying to get a clue from his facial expression but he was confusing them... Beatrice is dead.. His wife is dead.. No one could explain what happened and how it happened.. But it happened...
They took the book from him and read..."You made your wish... I made it happen.. I made my wish.. You didn't make it happen.. Lets try again...
I wish I'll slit your throat.. While you die slowly and painfully.. I'll beat your brain out, then drag your body to the basement... "_Book."How, this doesn't make any sense.. A book can't possible slit someone's throat.. "Bruno started.. He looked at Christine, then George.. Then the book.. "Don't tell me you guys are falling for this... "
"The basement... "
"What??.. "
"The basement... He warned us.. The agent... Beatrice went there.. She took this book... She made a wish.. It gave it to her... Its made its wish. She.. She didn't.. So he.. He.. The man in the portrait... My dreams... It all comes together now...!! Beatrice read the book.. She.. She... We are all in now..."
The Book flipped...
To a new page..
It started writing...
They were there
All of them...
They saw it...
And they read it...."Welcome, Christine.. We meet again... Hello George, Hello Bruno... Do you want to play?? Of course you do... Let's Begin... Make a wish, I'll make it happen... I'll make a wish, you make IT HAPPEN... Or... YOU ALL DIE... ".
