Chapter 11 - Mommy Long Legs

The color drained from Gabriel's face. Someone or something had a hold of him. Grabbing the wire connected to his hand, the middle aged man pulled with all of his might. But it was no use, whatever had him was much stronger. There was suddenly a loud snap and the wire retracted.

The red hand was gone.

"We haven't had a guest come to the Game Station in years!" the voice spoke again. It was a female's voice and it was bubbly like a child. But what child could possibly still be in an abandoned factory for the past ten years? Gabriel got his answer when a massive pink creature made from smooth plastic descended from the ceiling. Having worked at the toy factory before, Gabriel immediately recognized the gigantic creature.

Mommy Long Legs.

"You're not leaving so soon, are you?" Mommy questioned, tilting her head to the side. She was bracing herself against the corridor's walls with her two feet and one hand. Her other arm was lingering above, probably holding a pipe or something. All the while, her bright green eyes were fixated upon Gabriel. She was waiting for an answer. Clearing his throat, the man answered, "I'm planning on it. Once I find Poppy, I'm getting on that train and-"

"Oh yes! Mommy heard that Miss Poppy was just going to give you the train code! Now how is that any fun?" Mommy cooed. She spun herself so she was now upside down. She also brought down her second arm, revealing Poppy in her hand. The doll's mouth was covered with what appeared to be a sticky white substance similar to cobwebs. Was Mommy able to spin webs like an actual spider? Ridding himself of the thought with a shake of his head, Gabriel stepped forward and demanded, "Give me the code! I don't want to be here!"

"I have a better idea! Let's make a game out of it! The Game Station is still in operation," Mommy informed Gabriel with her voice filled with delight. Holding up Poppy, the plastic toy shook the doll side to side while she spoke again in a baby voice, "And if you win all three games, I'll give you the train code!" Gasping, Mommy replied in her own voice, "That's a wonderful idea Poppy!"

"That's a horrible idea! Just let me go-" Gabriel shouted. He was swiftly interrupted by Mommy again as she stated, "Ooh, it'll be just like old times! Head to Musical Memory and Mommy will get things started!" Her face suddenly darkened as her head extended downwards towards Gabriel. She hissed in a deep and intimidating voice, "Obey the rules or I will eat your insides while you're still ALIVE."

"Deal..." Gabriel rasped, swallowing hard. With Mommy's face so close to his own, he was genuinely terrified right now. A sweet smile spreading across her face once more, the plastic toy giggled happily before she rapidly ascended back up to the dark ceiling she had come from. His heart pounding in his chest, Gabriel stared at the darkness above in horror. He didn't even realize that the door had rolled open until he heard a soft metallic thud. Lowering his gaze, he stared at the open door. Gulping nervously, Gabriel stepped through to the other side.
