A new beginning .

A new start.

A new life.

These thoughts race through Ben's head as he watches the sun set from his window, he huffs as he lays on his bed glaring at the ceiling 'I don't deserve this.. I should have died..' Rolling over he remembers everyone's reactions.

FLASH BACK

Ben walks through the massive door way and is greeted by many different beings some seemed friendly. Others.. not so much.
"My name is Jeff. And if you think you can mess with me well.. you wont live here long.." A teen maybe 17 or 18 says. He had shoulder length black hair, his skin was a bleach white mixed with a white paste, a smile had been carved in his cheeks obviously it had been done a long time ago since how it had healed, his eye's where a piercing blue, and his eyelids looked as if they had been burned and had healed incorrectly.

Jeff then walks off as if he owns the place, "Hi! I'm Sally!" A young girl says, she had long brown hair, and green eyes, she also was wearing a pink dress it had tears and blood stains, her face had streams of blood running down her face. "Ben.." He mutters in response.

She smiles but before she can say another word a boy wearing googles runs up to him, he nearly ran over the girl.
"HEY I'M T-TOBY! I HEARD TH-THAT YOU'RE BEN!" The boy yells , Ben mutters a hi as Toby twitches, he was wearing a hoodie with brown stripes going down the sleeves, he wore a.. mouth gaurd? Toby's hair was brown, the only way Ben knew this was that it was sticking up in all directions, "Hey." A voice  says from the staircase, Ben looks up to see a tall figure wearing a black hoodie, jeans, and a deep blue mask with black stuff dripping from the eyes.

Toby looks over as well, "Hi EJ!" Toby says this while waving really fast, the guy named EJ just ignores him, "Who the hell is he.." He seems to be talking more to himself than to anyone else.
"Huh? Oh. EJ this is Ben. Ben this is EJ. Ben is going to be living here for now on!" Toby says this happily while motioning toward Ben, EJ mumbles something before going upstairs, "R-Relax. H-He's normally like this.." Toby says brushing it off as if he was use to it.


"Hey, you c-can meet everyone else later. I th-think you need to go and s-see your bedroom.. Come on!" Toby then grabs Bens arm and practically drags him up the stairs before taking a left down a hallway, then finds a different staircase before going up that one and takes a right down a different hallway before stopping in front of a plain white door.
"H-Here!" Toby says throwing Ben a small key, "It has a lock for when we have.. certain. visitors.." Toby stands there before saying, "Well? Are you going t-to go inside?"  Ben huffs before putting the key in the lock and turning it to hear the sound of the lock clicking, then turns the knob and opens the door.

There was a simple full sized bed with white sheets and a wooden head board, a dresser sits to one wall of the room having a total of six drawers and looking older than Ben was.. before he died.. A mirror stood in the corner tall and slim with a wood frame, the floor was wooden and certain places creaked as he walked, Ben turns and frowns as he notices somethings that where missing.
Like a simple laptop, but Ben decided not to complain, after all.. they still could easily throw him out..

"Well..?" Toby says from the door way making Ben turn to look at him, "What d-do you th-think?" Ben tenses up going through the many sentences he could say before saying a simple, "Its good..."

FLASHBACK OVER

Ben sighs as he stares blankly at the boring cream colored walls before he remembers something.
Reaching in the satchel he carry's he pulls out a wallet and begins to count all the money he has been 'borrowing' from his victims. Relax. They wont need it, they're dead.
After a moment of counting he mutters, "seven hundred forty three dollars and twenty five cents.. that will do.." (A/N sorry if this isn't your currency type where you live..)

Ben sighs as he stands up and begins looking through his satchel again for some clothes that don't look like.. well.. 'Hi-I'm-a-cosplayer-not-really.' he's made the mistake once and it was terrible.
Soon he finds black basketball shorts, and a dark green t-shirt, after a moment more of looking he realizes one other thing. He forgot to grab his other shoes. Sure boots are great but it attracts attention when you aren't wearing jeans, he has yet again found this out, he huffs before deciding to ask Toby if there might be a pair around here that was his size.

Ben was about to leave his room when he remembers, Toby forgot to tell him where he'd be if he needed help. 'Damn it..' Ben puts the clothes on his dresser before going out into the hall, he begins to walk down toward the hall towards the stairs when he takes a turn and runs into someone, he stumbles back as the figure makes a weird growling sound, "Watch it..." The familiar figure says.
Ben looks up to see EJ, "Uh.. Sorry.. uh.. Do you know where Toby is?" EJ doesn't even pause before saying, "Don't know. Don't care." Just as he was about to walk off Ben says, "Then do you know if there is a place here where there are shoes that might fit me..?" EJ sighs before turning towards Ben, "I will take you there on one condition." "Which is?" Ben asks, "You tell no one I helped you.. got it?" Ben raises an eyebrow but nods.

EJ motions Ben to follow him before walking down a different hall takes a right then goes down some stairs before leading him into a room that was full of different clothes, some had blood splatters on them others looked as it they had been tossed in a thorn bush and then dragged out, a couple had mud covering them, but few where clean and untouched.
Ben soon spots a pile of shoes, if they had laces they were tied together, heels would be taped together, if they were sandals then they'd be taped together, and so on.
Ben goes toward the pile that was taller than him and begins to look, after a minute EJ joins him, "What is your shoe size." EJ mutters holding up two different pairs of shoes, "Uh.. fives.." EJ freezes before glancing up, "You're joking..."  Ben looks down embarrassed before shaking his head.

"Damn it.. that's going to take forever to find .." He says throwing the shoes that where in his hands to the side, after about  forty minutes Ben finds a pair.. Just as EJ also finds a pair.
"Oh.. Uh.. I guess I could take both..?" Ben mutters glancing in between the shoes, the pair EJ found was a converse brand that was black, Ben on the other hand found some sandals that made him look as if all he did was stay inside.. or go on vacations a lot.
EJ nods in agreement, "That took a while.. so you might as well.. Hey Ben..?" EJ says glancing over at the converse.
"Ya?" Ben says raising an eyebrow. "Why do you need these any ways?" Ben tenses up as if he was being caught doing something against the rules.

"Well.. Uh.. I wanted to go and buy a laptop.. but I don't know if I can find a cheap one.." Ben mumbles, EJ looks over at him before saying, "Some places sell laptops for about a hundred and sixty dollars.. Walmart is a good place to go." Ben nods, "Ok.. I might try to see if they have anything there.."



A/N) Hey! Sorry its sorta short.. but it wont stop typing like this! Also is size fives in 'mens' small? or average? If its average then I will change it.
