Lost Souls & Spilt Blood

Chapter 3 Flash back

7 YEARS AGO

            I was in my home land Silent Hill lurking around looking for my next victims. A portal suddenly opened in the middle of the street and all I could see inside was a darkness that looked as thick as liquid but yet gave away to steams of mist that were curling around it. The portal was about as big as a full length mirror, and I sensed movement inside so I went around a near by corner really quick, but poked my head out so I could see what was happening on my turf. I saw a tallish dark figure slowly step out of the portal, it was a girl. Well, girl might not be an appropriate word; she was indeed female; that was obvious from her big curves and slender body. It took me a little bit to identify her. She wasn’t human, but had a human form, she certainly looked human...

            Her face snapped around to where I was, as icy blue eyes met my stormy grey ones. If I was human or any weaker creature from Silent Hill, I would have been petrified. After a few seconds, her eyebrows twitched into a curious glance. “Where am I and who are you?” She said chillingly. She had a voice of ice, and a look just as cold. Compelling, but also freezing, I would love to see the extent of her power, but it had no affect on me. I noticed that the portal behind her closed with an intake of air as it dispersed into nothingness, leaving only black wisps behind.

            “I am your worst nightmare, and welcome to Hell...” I said as I lunged for her with my claws extended. She smoothly dogged my attack as if she expected it. Strange... nobody ever dodges my attacks and lives. I lunged for her again and she easily evaded my attack... again... This lady was really starting to piss me off.

            She chuckled darkly, “This may be your Hell, but... this,” I growled at how she simply refered to my home as this. “Is nothing in comparison to what Hell really looks like... Now, tell me again... Where is this and who are you? Trust me; you do NOT want to get me pissed.”

            I thought for a moment, and then an idea hatched in my brain. “I’ll tell you when you answer this question.” She rolled her eyes. “What are you?” I said in disgust. There was surprise in her eyes for just a second; and that was all I needed. I quickly lunged for her and tackled her onto the hard concrete. She hissed and her eyes flashed to black orbs with red pupils and then quickly back to normal.

            “THE FUCK IS WRONG-”I quickly covered her mouth. Not wanting to alert any creatures to our whereabouts; not that they would do anything. I’m one of the most feared creatures in Silent Hill along with Pyramid Head. But I didn’t want anyone else to ruin my joy at what I just found. A demon, a real live... or not... demon! I thought excitedly. Demons were rare to come by, and even rarer to see in Silent Hill.

            The demon kicked me in the stomach and I jumped to the side. She got up and stared down at me with those cold eyes. My instincts told me to stay to the ground and wait for this demon to make the first move. "This is the last time I'm asking you, who are you and where am I?" she hissed at me. I pushed myself off the ground and stood up.

            I looked around the streets, making sure we were the only ones here. "Well, if you wanna know so badly, you're in Silent Hill and the sirens just went off, so you're in the nightmare world part of it. I have a name, but I rather not share it... just called me Kiwibear." I told the demon matter-of-factly. She stood observing me, thinking about what I had said. She looked me over once; my clothes had blood stains on them, along with a couple tears from fights.

            "What do I... um… call you?" I asked curiously, a demon could be your greatest ally. The demon's icy eyes shot back up to mine. She seemed confused that I didn't even flinch at her stare. It made me wonder what regular humans thought of this... thing.
