Frankenstein Paper

Scary Woods

Two girls start wandering around in the woods. They heard sounds and creaks that surrounded them. They look around and ask “Is there someone there?” but no one seems to answer. Until they heard the unsettling sounds again. The two girls become very paranoid in the pitch black dark, Jocelyn started screaming her head off  “Someone please help!” Daniela became aware that no one could hear them. They didn’t know what to do besides run. They ran deeper into the dark and creepy woods scared out of their minds. The more they ran, the louder and closer the sound got. They decided to hide behind a tree as if that would help. They looked at each other in freight. And then the sound was next to them. They were scared to the point they couldn’t scream. Then a cold hand grabbed Jocelyn by the neck and dragged her further into the woods. Daniela said screw this and started running. She kept running and running until she ran out of breath. She then realized she had her phone. She tried to call the police but… no service. So they had one thing left to do, run for their lives.

Void

She opened her eyes; the darkness was everywhere. She looked at her dismal surroundings; all she can see besides the dark was the silhouettes of others that are trapped in here with her. She knows that this is the place she will be in for a long time maybe even forever. As she started to accept her fate of being trapped inside a malicious void of darkness with a constant reminder of her sacrificing herself to trap the same things in here…now–she heard a familiar voice malevolent laughing in the distance.

“Well, well, I see someone that did a mistake on this decision; now she won’t see her loved ones again,” he teased her.

“Shut it! I don’t want to hear your stupid voice; this is your fault!” she yelled at him

“My fault? Weren’t you the one that didn’t stop your friend in time from releasing us, and you had the only thing that can trap us in this endless void darkness which I call Hell!”

“I did what I had to do, now shut it or I’ll…,”

“Or you’ll what? Do you even know what you can do here cause I know what we can do here… nothing but only speak to the others trapped in here and regret things,”

She froze realizing it was true, she couldn’t move and she didn’t see his face even though it sounded like he was right in front of her. She didn’t know what else to say so she decides to stay quiet.

But then he started speaking again but it wasn’t only his voice that was talking she heard the voices of the others trapped in here all speaking in unison saying

 Here we return to rot again, till the day someone free us again, we will feel pain every day in every way, to see nothing but darkness every day, and to never age to never die all we can do is beg for our lives,”

This gave her chills it was disturbing to her and the worst part was that she almost said what they were saying as well. Then she felt a pain on her hands feeling as they had deep cuts in them and are gushing out blood. Now she sort of regrets sacrificing herself now she wants to get out but she can’t, she can’t do anything but scream forever.

I’m sorry Sammy

 

 February 2018

 He woke up in the middle of the street at night. He got up and looked at his surroundings he was in some kind of city or megalopolis. He saw nothing but tall buildings and a long street going as far as he can see.

“Hello? Is anyone their… Looks like I’m alone… again,” he said to himself. The city looked abandon not a single soul was there, but he felt like someone was watching him.

A voice appeared behind him and said “Aw you’re not alone silly” to him in a joyful tone. He turned around to see who said that, and what he saw shocked him. It was the body a child but their didn’t have a head instead there was a mutilated fox head floating over the neck.

“W-who are you? Where am I?” he asked the child as he was so confused at this point and just wanted some answers.

“Oh you don’t recognize this place? We’re inside your head.” the child responded with.

“My head? But I …”

“Do you remember me? Or do you wish not to remember?”

“ I’m sorry I don’t know you at all,”

“Well don’t worry I’ll help you remember,”

Then he was touched on the top of his head by the child. At first nothing happened until he blinked then the memories came back to him as if they were a crashing wave. He… Wally was shivering feeling minuscule because of seeing the things he’s done.

“Wally you hurt him. You hurt your little brother real bad and I don’t think you can say sorry to him anymore,” the boy said to Wally. Wally knew he couldn’t deny that what he did was his fault. The child looked at him in disappointment “I think I want you to feel how he feels. I think it’s your turn Wally it’s your to feel his pain,” the child said to Wally as a giant truck speeding towards them. The truck instantly run them over, and  that’s when Wally woke up in his hospital bed sighing in relief that it was a dream. That nightmare felt like his life was diminish. Wally looked to his side and seeing his little brother Sammy asleep holding his fox toy with that hand without a cast.

“I’m sorry Sammy,” Wally whisper to himself looking at his little brother broken body.
