Cellar
I wake up. The room is pitch black, I can't see anything. My vision is completely blocked.
I reach my hand out, I can feel something, something... warm. I grab it and pull it close to my eyes to try and inspect it, but it's no luck. I give up trying to look and just feel to try and get a good vision of what it is.
I pace my hand around the side of the bowl like object, it has lumps around it's sides... about, six? Maybe seven. I feel on the inside, and there is a warm liquid inside of it. It burns my hand and I quickly flinch my hand away, dropping the object making it smash on the floor next to me.
I can sense the liquid crawling towards my leg slowly, I try to move away from it but something's stopping my legs. I go on my side and pull my leg, something makes a rattling noise, like chains. I reach out to feel what it is, my fingers detect that there's a chain wrapped around both of my feet. I quickly slip into a panic as I feel the hot liquid reach my leg, oozing through my torn clothes and burning my skin, I wince in pain at the sensation.
I try to move again. It didn't work. Nothing's working. Please, help. What's going on? I want to know. I need to know. Am I going to die..? Please. Anyone. Anything. For god's sake please just let me put of here. I'm scared. Please. Pl-
I see a thin line of light on the floor, like a door's opening. The floor looks like it's made out of stone... no wonder it's cold to be on. I look behind me, to see a figure behind the crack of the open door.
I look closer.
That isn't human.
That definitely isn't human.
I see a black silhouette like figure, but it's melting slowly... it's pearl white souless eyes are staring at me, giving direct eye contact. It has a hole in it's face for a nose, and has a smile so wide that if it smiled anymore it's mouth would be off it's face. It's gloopy dark hand is holding the door facing my direction.
My heart starts having palpitations, am I having a panic attack? What is this thing? Please for the love of god get me out of here. Two minutes have passed already and my scared eyes have been locked onto his. Hers... its, whatever it is.
It's mouth slowly opens and blood pours from it at a rapid speed, and it's white eyes roll forwards to reveal a skull like pupil in it's eyes. I get up and try to run, but I fall over, now I'm scrambling on the floor desperate to get out of here. I lift myself up but slip and fall on the boiling hot liquid, the door opens more to reveal more light. I can see the liquid now, it's... soup? I get my focus off the soup, probably vegetable which I dislike anyways; and focus on my worn down bloodied fingers.
Wait.
The door opened more, didn't it..? That's how I can see the soup.
Oh no.
I look behind me, and it's there.
It's in front of me.
It has a hunched back with claws for hands, and it's mouth was now circular. The blood from it's mouth was now dripping onto me. I let out a blood curdling scream as it reaches out for my face. Suddenly, a sword pierces through it's body, it lets out a screech of defeat and explodes into a black goopy mess, it gets all over me and then disintegrates.
What just happened?
I look in shock to see an actual human, I look closer, it's a male. He has curly brown hair that drops onto his face which has emerald green eyes, red lips with pale white, cut and bruised skin. His clothes were just a black shirt with jeans mixed with some black scrapped boots.
He was panting as he dropped his sword to lend his hand out "Can you get up?" His eyes look at my ankles, and notices that they're chained up. "Hold on." He picks his sword nack up and swings it behind his shoulder, ready to swing.
I automatically cover my head with my arms as he swings it. I uncover myself and look around, he had broke the chains around my feet. I sigh with relief "What was that thing? Why am I here?"
"That 'thing' is a morph. And none of us really know why we're here, we just woke up inside a cell room. Sometimes we were alone in a room, like you were. Come on, I've got to get back to them."
"Hold on- hold on, who are you?" I question
"Zach. What's your name?"
I think for a few moments.
Crap, what is my name?
"Um.."
"So? What's your name?"
I pause "I... I don't remember"
"You don't remember your own name?"
"Yeah."
"Is that 'yeah you don't know' or 'yeah you do know'? Give me a proper answer atleast."
"Alright stop being a dick, I guess I'll name myself Elise."
"Elise. Right. Nice to meet you." He held out his hand "And- I am not a dick, thanks."
I shake his hand "You sure?"
"Positive." He pulls me up "So, Elise, I'll introduce you to the group. Take a sword, can you kill things without empathy?" He hands me a sword
"Um, why ask?"
"Because you're obviously gonna have to kill morphs, dumbass."
I sigh "Stop being so rude."
I get up from the floor and wipe the dust off my shaking bruised legs, and Zach exits through the door whilst angrily gesturing for me to follow. I follow him and see a mirror directly outside my 'room', revealing my reflection. I have shiny brown hair, pale white skin and pale lips. My clothes were ripped apart, my jeans ripped up above my thighs to reveal scars and bruises; and my shirt torn like a wolf got to it. The mud on the floor had made my clothes dirty and brown, with no footwear.
I was just about to follow him down the rest of the abandoned like hospital hallway, when I saw my diamond blue eyes flash violet for a minimum of half a second. 'That's... weird' I thought, shaking my head to snap out of this daydream I thought I was having.
"Hurry up! Are you coming or not? Do you want to be killed, idiot?" Zach yelled over to me at the end of the dirty white, dim lit hallway.
"Coming!" I yelled back, running towards him.
I heard a shatter and looked behind me, the mirror had broke and was on the floor with black goop oozing from it slowly "Uh.."
"Come on, I haven't got all day."
"Oh... um alright."
I started to head towards him again, this time he huffed and grabbed my wrist, practically dragging me "You're so slow oh my god, come on already."
"Hey! Let go of me!" I shout, trying to pry my hand out of his grip.
"No. You're too slow and I'm not getting killed because of some stupid girl who stops every two seconds."
"Zach, you're really rude."
"I'm not rude, I'm right"
"Left."
"Oh for gods sake, just come on"
