Why Don't We/ Christian: Outlast

Return

Corbyn POV

I was playing with my fingers and everyone else was either doing the same or taking a nap. I kept hearing little noises here and there, but they were just echos of water dripping. I looked back out when I thought I heard voices echoing, very faint. I quickly stood up, and caught the attention of Christian. (For a more formative visual image of it, all of the cells are roughly the same. The back is solid, the sides are half/a little like the wall of a jail cell, the other half is a solid wall and they all have a large hole in the solid part. The front is just made up of medal bars like a jail cell. They all can see each other as well, and the top row can see the bottom row a little. The rooms are stacked a little like stairs.Hope you know what i mean)

"What?" Christian asked. I looked past Daniels room. I heard fast walking. As I walked over to the cage-ish part so that I could see the door, Someone or something dived through the hole in the wall and I jumped back with a yelp. They casually ran past me.

"Hey, Corbyn," Zach said.

Christian POV

What was going on? So many noises.

I watched as Zach and Jack jumped down from Jonahs cell, into Zachs, and through the hole to mine.

"We need your help," Jack said.

"Well, was it that hard to stay over there," I asked walking to the bed.

"Dang, your grouchy," I looked at Zach and he smirked.

"Well, can't imagine why," I sighed, "What do you need help you with? More importantly Why is everyone acting like we expected you?" I asked.

"I don't know. It's you part, I'm not the Actor," Jack said. I just sat down.

"Well, your supposed to find blood and follow it into a sewer..." I said. Zachs eyes nearly popped out of his skull.  He did not like it.

"I don't know if this is completely like the game," Jack said.

"Me either. Just find batteries and stay alive," I said.

"We've been trying," Zach said.

"Don't tell me you guys almost died..." I said.

"Well....."

"Zaaaaccchhhh."

"Sorry!" I rubbed my face.

"Jack?" I asked looking for his answer. He nodded.

"Not even that long, maybe ten minutes after we left?"

"Oh my gosh," I said.

Zach POV

I sat there watching Christian freak out over the fact that we almost died.

"Was there...Any other time?" I made the face you make when you did something that your mom told you not to do.

"Well, there was this other time-"

"Oh. My. Gosh."

"Yeah..." Jack said.

"When? What happened?" He asked.

"We went into a large room and we blocked the door. Later, someone was hitting the door and yelled at us. It was one of them,"I said. He scratched his head.

"But, were not dead, so..."Jack said.

"Yeah, your only saying that because your not dead. If you were, on the other hand," Christian said.

"Were sorry," I whined like a kid.

"It's ok. I'm not mad at you guys. Just...You need to stay safe."

"Yeah," I said.

"You are both so young," He said.

"Everyone is. Like a year below or ahead of the other," Jack replied.

"Yeah, but you two are the youngest."

"Shoot."

"I think-"

"Oh hell yeah!"

"Crawford!" Christian yelled.

"Sorry, I was just going through a pile of junk and found a two walkie talkies!" He yelled.

"Why would those be here?" I asked.

"Someone died here I don't know," Crawford said.

"What the," I said

"We will need two batteries," Jack said.

"Wow! those are old ones!" Wyl yelled.

"Yeah, my dad has one of those in a case," Dyl  said.

"Hope they work," Jonah said looking up from his game of tik-tak-toe with Corbyn.

"We will need two batteries," Crawford said.

"Jack, the two batteries you found!" I said.

"Oh know. They aren't here."

"Jack I swear..."

"Just kidding," Jack said pulling them out. We took the two batteries and put them in them.

"They work!" I said.

"Excuse me this is Jack, baby face do you copy?" Jack asked.

"Excuse me? What the actual-"

"Ok, they work. Move on," Christian said.

"Dang," Crawford said.

"Just call each other by names," I said.

"Yeah," Jack agreed. Out of nowhere, things started flying into Christians room.

"what the hell?!" He yelled.

"Why is there goldfish?" I asked picking it up.

"I'm throwing all of the stuff up to you guys. I found food!" Crawford yelled.

"Wha-"

"Don't worry, I ate some and haven't died yet," Crawford said looking through more stuff. Jack and Christians mouths were dropped open.

"Well, we need to get ready to head back out." We began packing our stuff into our pockets. Luckily, we both had army green comeback jackets.

"Well, guess this is it for now," I said giving Christian the other walkie talkie. Jack had the other.

"You guys stay safe," Crawford said. Everyone else yelled there goodbyes. We got back to Daniels cell and we turned around and waved to everyone. 

"I'm going to miss your hugs!" I yelled. Jack grabbed my arm and started pulling me. We finally got back to where we'd started.
