The illusion of Hope

*huff* *huff* it's..been... How long exactly? I can't remember. Searching for my friends is starting to seem so hopeless now. "I just want to take a break!", I cried out My body drenched in sweat was aching all over from running around all over the resort. "Agh! I haven't sat down in hours, *sighs* where in the world has everyone disappeared to?" Now, I started to observe my surroundings, and I realized it was the reception of the resort which was the last place I hadn't searched in yet. I knew that the lack of employees during my hours of the search was suspicious but the reception where employees were supposed to be... was deserted! "H-how can this be even the reception?" It seemed as if people fled away from this place and abandoned everything behind! It wasn't hard to tell, since all the things were pretty messy, I could hear the sound from the running tap water, see the suitcases lying around which were probably of new visitors, and room keys lying across the furniture w

*pit* *pat* Huh? Something just fell in my eye? Is it raining? I moved my arm to wipe the drop of water from my eyelid "agh, sh..it, my body hurts!" I groaned with a raspy throat How strange, it seems I fell asleep under the tree while recalling the memories from the time before we came here. Come to think of it, how long have I been asleep? My eyes were still shut closed. I didn't wish to open them. Why? I was hoping that everything that took place in that dreadful resort was just another figment of my imagination, Perhaps, another nightmare, just like the ones I have had before. I wished that when I opened my eyes I would be in my bed at my home. Starting to get ready for my daily life-sucking desk job. But the reality was far different than my imagination. I understood that when I slowly opened my eyes. I was disheartened that every horrifying thing I have experienced until now was real as I was still lying under the tree I slept under before. It was gently drizzling

My body became paralyzed from fear Is she... Dead?! It was a normal thing to wonder about when your friend looks like a corpse and does not have a pulse! No! I refuse to believe it! How can she be... In a quick motion; I stretched my arm forward and tried to feel her breathing again... Her hair was in the way So I lifted the dangling blonde hair from her forehead Huh?! What is that? Some shiny green thing was attached to her skin in the middle of her forehead As I raised my fingers to touch it just out of sheer curiosity *smack* My body froze Huh...?! I slowly looked down, only to find the 'corpse' of supposedly dead Faye grabbing my hand and staring right at me only this time her eyes are wider than before and more menacing! My voice got stuck in my throat and it felt like my heart would pop out any second! *gulp* I forgot how to scream! I had no way of knowing what was happening in front of me Fuck being dead or alive! Is she even human anymore?! I slowly steppe

While I was desperately trying to force my worn-out body to move I could hear their steps getting closer and closer to where I was *thump* thump* My heart was racing so fast that I could hear it beating... "Shit...I'm so fucked..." I mumbled under my breath The cold floor brushed against my face as I dragged myself forward when suddenly a large hand grabbed my injured leg "YOU MUST COME WITH US!" Both the woman and the man yelled while the other somewhat bulky man began tightening his grip around my ankle The excruciating pain made me burst into tears "AAAAGH!! NO! LEAVE ME ALONE! DAMN IT!" I cried out I bit my lip and tried to sink my cracked nails into the hard ground Nothing seemed to work as the man dragged me towards him Streaks of tears started rolling my cheeks as I begged them to leave me alone 'This can't be happening...it hurts so much...why must shit like this always happen to me...- All of my senses started to blur because of the gut-wrenching pain I started
