I opened my eyes and rose from the bed that I was laying on I looked around and noticed that I was no longer in my room at the Resistance base but rather I was in what looked like a hotel room the room had a large bed, a TV, a dresser with a mirror on it, a door that led to a bathroom and another door that led out of the room I quickly got out of bed and looked around the room "I know this place." I said, I then looked at the door that led out of the room I walked up to the door and opened it I stepped through the door and was now standing in a long hallway with a carpeted floor and several other doors like the one I just walked through lining the walls "I've been here before a long time ago, my Mom and my Dad took me to this hotel." I said before I tried to think back to that time "When I was eight years old my Mom and my Dad brought me to this hotel I remember one night while we were at this hotel I woke up in the middle of the night from the sound of my Mom and my Dad arguing I pretended to be asleep so that they wouldn't notice that I was awake I could hear my Mom and my Dad arguing about me my Mom and my Dad were arguing that they never wanted me that they should have gotten an abortion that they should just get rid of me, one day while we were at this hotel my Mom and my Dad locked me in the bathroom of the hotel room that we were staying in my Mom and my Dad then left the hotel they tried to leave me here my Mom and my Dad tried to abandon me at this hotel I had to escape from the bathroom that they locked me in and get to the lobby of the hotel so that they couldn't leave me here." I thought, I then realized what was happening "This is a dream, I'm dreaming right now." I said before I began to walk down the hallway, I walked down the hallway as I looked around I could see the doors that led to the other rooms I then noticed that the hallway went in two different directions the direction in front of me had more doors that led to the other rooms and there was another direction that led to a balcony that overlooked the lobby I walked down the direction that led to the balcony that overlooked the lobby and after awhile I had arrived at the end of the hallway and was now standing on the balcony I could see that I was on the second floor I then looked down and could see the lobby the lobby was on the ground floor I could also see that the front door of the hotel was in the lobby I then thought about what I was going to do "I need to get out of here the only way out is through the front door I remember there being an elevator in the center of the hallway with stairs around it I can probably reach the lobby using the elevator." I said as I turned around and walked back down the hallway, I walked down the hallway until I eventually came upon the elevator in the center of the hallway I looked at the stairs and noticed that there were security gates blocking them "So I guess the stairs are a no go." I said as I pressed the button on the panel to call the elevator but nothing happened "The elevator isn't working, great." I said before looking around and spotting a metal door next to the stairs I opened the door and entered a small maintenance room I looked around the room and could see a fuse box that was connected to the elevator, it was missing four fuses I then noticed a flashlight on a nearby wooden crate I picked up the flashlight and began looking around the room searching for a fuse I then noticed another fuse box at the far end of the maintenance room there was a single fuse in it I approached the fuse box and removed the fuse and instantly the lights in the room turned off I turned the flashlight on and looked around the room I walked back to the elevator fuse box and placed my newly acquired fuse into the fuse box "I found one fuse but there are three more, I guess I'll have to search for the rest of the fuses." I said before turning around and walking out of the room.
I stepped back out into the hallway and could see that the lights were off everywhere the entire hotel was now dark I frantically looked down the hallway dreading what I might see but there was nothing there I then noticed that the security gates that were blocking the stairs were now open and my first instinct was to use the stairs to reach the lobby I walked down the stairs until I reached the ground floor but then I noticed that there was a pile of furniture blocking the stairs I tried to move the furniture out of the way but it was useless the way was completely blocked "Shit." I said before walking back up the stairs, I walked up the stairs until I reached the third floor with the lobby blocked it seems I have no choice but to find all the fuses and get the elevator working, I began walking down the hallway I walked down the hallway until I arrived at a door there was a sign on the door "Manager's office." the sign read, I attempted to open the door but it was locked "Oh come the fuck on." I said, the door to the manager's office had a regular door knob with a lock above it "I guess I need to find a key." I thought, I walked back down the hallway until I noticed one of the doors that led to one of the rooms was slightly open I approached the door and was about to open it when suddenly I looked behind me and could see De'vorah standing there just then she rushed towards me and attacked me, I quickly opened the door and ran into the room before I closed the door behind me.
I looked around the room and could see that it looked just like the one I was in before and probably like all of the others as well I searched the room looking for anything that might help me I noticed that the glass door leading to the outside balcony was open I continued searching until eventually I found a key "Hopefully this is the key to the manager's office." I said as I grabbed the key and walked towards the door I opened the door and stepped back out into the hallway I then approached the manager's office, I approached the manager's office and inserted the key into the lock I then turned the key and the door was now unlocked I then opened the door and I stepped inside the office was relatively small with a desk in the center of the room and a large picture frame on the wall behind the desk I searched the desk looking for anything but found nothing suddenly I heard something coming from just outside the manager's office I pointed my flashlight at the door and just then a Demon jumped into the manager's office the Demon was tall it wore black armour it had three red eyes and two horns on it's head and it had a long tail that was covered in blades the Demon jumped over the desk and attacked me and as the Demon landed on me I struck the picture frame which caused the picture frame to fall to the floor I struggled as the Demon attacked me I managed to shake the Demon off of me I then used the flashlight to beat the Demon over the head I stuck the Demon with the flashlight then I stuck it again and again and again until eventually the Demon collapsed to the floor motionless I then watched the Demon disappear I took a deep breath before I looked and noticed that the picture frame had fallen from where it was and I could see that there was a small hole in the wall behind where the picture frame was "Oh hello." I said as I approached the hole in the wall, I looked inside the hole and could see a fuse "Perfect." I said as I grabbed the fuse and put it in my pocket, I then left the manager's office and continued my search for the other fuses.
I searched the hotel for the other fuses with no success all the other rooms were locked I then began walking up the stairs until I arrived at a door which led to the roof I attempted to open the door but it wouldn't budge it felt like there was something on the other side of the door holding it shut I then walked back down the stairs to the third floor, arriving at the third floor I looked down the hallway and could see the manager's office as well as the door leading to the room where I found the key that unlocked the manager's office I then began walking down the hallway wondering how I was going to reach the roof I entered the room where I found the key that unlocked the manager's office and I looked at the glass door that led to the outside balcony I stepped through the glass door and looked around and that's when I noticed a fire escape on the side of the building I looked at the fire escape and could see that it was connected to the outside balcony that I was standing on I could also see that the lower section of the fire escape wasn't there so I couldn't use the fire escape to leave the hotel but I did noticed that the upper section of the fire escape was intact and it led up to the roof I walked onto the fire escape and began ascending up the fire escape and upon reaching the roof I took a quick glance around and can see that there is a pile of furniture blocking the door that I tried opening earlier I walked around the area before I looked and could see Linda standing in front of me just then she rushed towards me and attacked me, I quickly jumped to avoid her before I looked down and noticed a fuse on the floor I quickly reached down and picked up the fuse before putting it in my pocket I then ran back towards the fire escape I walked down the fire escape and jumped back over to the outside balcony I ran through the glass door and was back in the room I took a deep breath before I walked up to the door and stepped back out into the hallway.

I entered the hallway and began moving back towards the stairs "Okay three down one to go." I said as I descended the stairs, I walked back to the maintenance room and once I arrived at the maintenance room I walked up to the elevator's fuse box and placed the two fuses I had into it I then began to wonder where the last fuse could be I looked around the maintenance room until I noticed a hole in the floor with a ladder in it that led down I approached the hole in the floor and inspected it "Must be some kind of maintenance hatch that leads to the basement." I said as I began climbing down the ladder, I descended the ladder for quite awhile until I eventually reached the basement I stepped off of the ladder and looked around the basement was very dark but I could see that there were a shelf on the wall next to me and a long corridor that led into darkness I slowly approached the corridor but just then the flashlight began to flicker "Oh don't you fucking dare." I said but the flashlight continued to flicker until eventually it shut off, I desperately tried to turn the flashlight back on but it was no use the battery was depleted "Fuck." I said as I dropped the flashlight and began looking around, I couldn't see in the darkness so I used my hands to feel around I searched the shelf to try and find batteries or another flashlight or something but then my hand landed on something I grasped the object in my hand and felt it to try and figure out what it was the object was small and had a cylindrical shape to it and there was something at the top of it I squeezed this part of the object and it felt like it could be removed "Maybe it's another flashlight." I said as I gripped the top part of the object and twisted it and in an instant the entire area lit up as the object in my hand gave off a bright red glow "A flare?" I said as the object spurted red sparks in all directions it wasn't the ideal light source but it was better than nothing I held up the flare and used it to illuminate the area as I began walking down the dark corridor.
The corridor was dark and the flare barely gave off enough light for me to see what was ahead of me the walls around me glowed red as the flare burned there was only a short distance around me that was illuminated by the flare so I was just walking into darkness I kept walking until I noticed that the corridor went in two different directions one direction went left and the other direction went right I went left and continued walking I moved through the darkness frequently checking behind me as I walked but could only see darkness I continued walking until I came upon an open area with a table in the center and on the table was the last fuse I quickly ran up to the table and snatched the fuse up before putting it in my pocket I then looked up and could see Brian standing just inches away from me just then he rushed towards me and attacked me, I quickly turned around and ran back towards the ladder as my Dad chased me I ran down the corridor until I came upon the part of the corridor that went in two different directions I turned right and ran towards the ladder I ran down the corridor until I reached the ladder I dropped the flare and quickly climbed back up the ladder and upon entering the maintenance room I climbed out of the hole and collapsed against the wall breathing heavily "I hope I never have to do that again." I said as I stood up and walked towards the elevator's fuse box and inserted the fourth fuse and with that I could hear the elevator power up "Finally." I said as I walked out of the maintenance room, I walked into the hallway and noticed that the building's emergency lights were on the emergency lights illuminated the entire building in a eerie red glow I approached the elevator and pushed the button on the panel to call the elevator and I could hear the elevator begin to move the elevator soon reached my floor and the elevator doors opened I stepped into the elevator and pushed the ground floor button just then I looked and could see Belial standing just outside of the elevator he had black eyes just then he rushed towards me and attacked I pressed the ground floor button repeatedly as Belial drew closer and closer but before Belial could reach me the elevator doors closed and the elevator descended.
The elevator soon reached the ground floor and as it stopped the doors opened and I stepped out I was now finally in the lobby and could leave this place I quickly ran through the lobby towards the exit but just then I could see several Ghosts staring at me just then they rushed towards me and attacked me, I evaded them as best as I could but suddenly an Angel appeared the Angel was huge it wore golden armour it had gold eyes and it had giant wings on it's back it had two giant artillery cannons on it's shoulders and instead of hands it had a massive sword on each of it's arms and a large hole in the center of it's chest and it had a halo above it's head just then the Angel swung it's swords at me I quickly jumped behind the front desk in the lobby as the two swords struck the back wall I ducked down behind the front desk as pieces of the wall fell around me I then looked down and noticed a piece of rebar on the floor that must have broken off when the two swords hit the wall I quickly picked up the piece of rebar before I poked my head out to look at the Angel I then noticed an opening in the Angels armour on the back of each of it's legs I then got an idea I emerged from behind the front desk and ran up to the Angel legs as it swung it's swords at me again I evaded it's attacks until I reached one of it's legs I then jammed the piece of rebar into the opening in the Angels armour upon which the Angel roared in pain I quickly ran back to the front desk but just then the Angel aimed it's artillery cannons at me "Oh shit." I said as I quickly run out from behind the desk as the Angel fired it's artillery cannons completely destroying the front desk along with most of the lobby I then ran towards the Angel but just then the Angel fired a large laser out of the large hole in it's chest the Angel tried to hit me with the laser but I managed to evade the laser before I got behind the Angel again and jammed the piece of rebar into the opening on it's other leg and as I do so the Angel collapsed to the floor I then ran up to the front of the Angel as it tried to hit me with it's swords I avoid it's attacks and reach it's head I then plunge the piece of rebar into the Angel's head the Angel then roared in agony I then watched as the Angel disappeared, I then closed my eyes for a moment before I opened my eyes and when I opened my eyes I noticed that I was back in my room at the Resistance base.
