Han End He

My best friend

Ok, hvor skal du begynne. Jeg heter Oskar, og nylig døde vennen min.Vi har vært venner siden barndommen, og jeg skulle ønske jeg fikk tatt farvel med ham før han gikk bort.Etter begravelsen hans ga familien hans meg denne merkelige boken. Jeg var ikke sikker på hva denne boken var, det var en ganske slitt bakbok i skinn, og papiret ser gammelt ut også. Jeg gikk for å lese den, men da jeg åpnet den, var den svart bortsett fra et falmet ord på arabisk som lød: "مع السلامة" Jeg lukket boken og gikk ut av leiligheten min som lå i øverste etasje i det fireetasjes leilighetskomplekset. Jeg gikk ned trappene til tredje etasje, bare for å finne meg selv tilbake i leiligheten min. Jeg har ingen forklaring på dette, jeg har prøvd å komme meg ut av komplekset i flere dager, men uten noe positivt resultat. Jeg er en fange i mitt eget hjem, og jeg kan ikke rømme. Jeg sender denne journalen ut av postkassen min til et tilfeldig sted i Japan. Forhåpentligvis kan den bli funnet og jeg kan bli hjulpet. Vent, jeg hører noe bevege seg rundt i stuen min. Det kan ikke være et dyr, jeg har ingen kjæledyr. Jeg burde gå undersøke. Det er morsomt, stolen min føles myk og speilet foran meg blir svart med en blåaktig nyanse. Jeg kunne drømme, men jeg vet at dette er ekte, kanskje hvis jeg...........

こんにちは、田中さくらです。 私は疲れました。長い一日だったので、ほとんど立っていられません。今日、郵便受けの中にこの奇妙な本と日記を見つけました。誰から来たのかは明らかにされていないが、ノルウェーから来たということだけが書かれ ている。それをアパートに持ち込んでみたら、なんと！この愚かなけいれんはとても迷惑です。とにかく、私はその奇妙な本をランダムなページに開きました。どのページも空白で、色が黒で、馴染みのない言語の単語が赤で綴られたページを見つけるまで、意味がわかりませんでした。その言葉はこうだった。“fy anwylaf” あまり深く考えず、本を置いてシャワーを浴びに行ったのですが、水を出してもシャワーヘッドから水が出ません。私のアパートの水道システムに問題がなかったことを考えると、これは奇妙でした。私はシャワーを浴びて頭をよく見ようとしましたが、振り返ってみると私のアパートが違うことに気づきました。 私のアパートは石に変えられたようで、まるで城の内部のようでした。私は裸でどこにも熱がなかったため震えながらシャワーから出ました。私は狭くて狭い廊下に向かって歩いていき、床に草の斑点がいくつか円を描いている、大きな空っぽの部屋にたどり着きました。その時、パッチの一つに小さな物体が見えました。物体を手に取ってみると、それはプラスチックの卵だった。それを開くと、遊び場で手をつないでいる 2 人の子供を描いた粗末な絵が見えました。そのとき、犬の遠吠えと、私に向かって歪んだ叫び声が交差するような恐ろしい音が聞こえました。 怖すぎて動けなかった。音が近づいてきて、大きな犬が現れましたが、この犬には何か違和感がありました。その脚は人間に似ており、髪は鳥の羽に似ていました。それは私に向かって突進し、私の足を噛み、私はつまずいて地面に倒れました。私は体を守るために何も覆っていなかったので、獣は私の体中を噛んだり爪で引っ掻いたりして、私の体は傷と噛み跡で覆われました。私は喉を狙おうとしたが、腕で喉を隠していたため、犬の歯と爪で腕を切り裂かれてしまった。 痛みで叫びながら、このまま死ぬのはわかっていましたが、そのとき、犬が赤い首輪と名札を付けているのが見えました。私は首輪を掴んで、首を絞めようとひねろうとしました。首輪をひねると、首輪が獣の首から折れました。それから獣は恐ろしい音を立てて私の耳から血を流しました。獣は走り去り、暗い廊下の一つに消え、私は一人になりました。 私は攻撃から回復するために数時間地面に横たわっていました。それから私はゆっくりと立ち上がり、「バディ」という名前が書かれた名札を調べ、札を裏返すと次のような外国語の単語を見つけました:ederin. それから私はそれを地面に投げ、金属製のドアにつながる狭い階段を上りました。私はドアを押し開けて、反対側に自分のアパートが現れました。私はアパートに入り、すぐにできる限りの傷の手当てをしました。それから私は服を着てアパートの外に飛び出しましたが、気が付くと寝室にいました。何度も出ようとしたけど出られない、外は見えているのに抜け出せない。私の家からは逃げ場がありません。今は夏なので、このクソ本とこの雑誌をアメリカのランダムな住所に送ります。 この本を手放せば平和がわかるかもしれない。アパートから出て、何が起こるか見てみるつもりです。うまくいきました、ああ、神に感謝します！それはうまくいきましたが、どうやって？外出中。これを郵便ポストに入れて処分するだけです。わかりました、郵便受けがあります、これは良い仕事です、またシャワーを浴びるのが待ちきれません。さあ、さようなら、悪魔のような奴……。

Ok, where to begin, my name is Riley, I was walking home the other day and I found this strange book in my mailbox. I took it into my apartment and saw that it was a journal written mostly in Norwegian and Japanese, a lot of words had been scratched out of have faded, but for the most part it was all fully in tact. I then opened a black-colored book that came along with the journal and saw that the book was blank, the paper looked new, almost like it was made yesterday. I then turned to a page that was old and worn from age, it had one word written in another language. The word being “μου λείπεις” I’m guessing the word is Greek depending on the look of the letters. I set the book down and left to make food for myself, but as I walked to the kitchen, I noticed that my staircase leading down stairs just lead me back to the second floor where my room is. This was so weird. I tried going into the nearby bathroom and it was normal, so I tried a closet and it lead to the living room downstairs, I was so creeped out by this that I rushed to the front door, only to find myself in my basement, where I saw something lying on the floor. It was a gold ring. I picked it up and read an inscription on the inside of the ring, saying: “Kwakungahloselwe ukuba kube njalo” I couldn’t read it, so I left the basement, but when I left I wasn’t in my house anymore, I was in a public pool. The pool was abandoned but it was clean and tidy. I walked around, hearing faint, metallic, banging sounds. I made my way to the exit, bringing me to a large pool with a strange fish-like creature swimming around in it. I decided to ignore it, walking passed the pool, but before I could go any further, The fish creature grabbed me by the leg and pulled me into the pool. I struggled to get free and kicked the fish in the face, causing myself to break free. I then quickly swam to a drain that was uncovered and entered it. It was a tight squeeze but I was thin enough to fit. I swam for a few minutes until I reached an opening where I came to find myself levitating in the sky. I looked around and saw nothing but the bright blue sky and white fluffy clouds. I noticed a door facing my direction, so I approached it and opened it, revealing a winding staircase. I climbed the stairs for what seemed like forever until I came at a white door. I opened it and found myself in an empty church. It was clean except for the cross on the far front wall, the cross had been tipped over and stained in dirt. I made my way to the exit and opened the door where I entered a plane that was flying in the air. I had no idea what was going on, so I looked around until the lights of the plane shut off, leaving me in pitch black darkness. I wandered around in the dark, tripping over chairs and slowly shuffling my feet so I wouldn’t bump into any thing. I came to a door to one of the lavatories on the plane. I entered it and saw that I was no longer in a bathroom. I was in my bed. I looked around, seeing that everything was normal and in it’s rightful place. I then looked where I had set those books and I saw a teddy bear sitting on the book, which was opened. I walked over to the bear and picked it up; I saw written on the book was, “Ich werde dich immer lieben.” It was so weird, I didn’t see that on the pages of the book before. Anyway, I rushed downstairs and saw that there were weird symbols covering every corner of my walls. As I walked and looked, I felt sick to my stomach. I then came to a telephone which immediately rang when I got close to it. I answered the phone and said, “Hello” to be responded to a soft male voice saying, “Come outside, Darling. I have a surprise to remember you by.” I didn’t say anything, I simply put the phone down and went outside of my front door to see the beach of the western coast. The sky was slightly cloudy and the sun was setting. I walked towards the water to see the initials O and S drawn in the sand with a heart circling them. I’m still here to this day at this coast, trapped here till the day I die. I can’t leave, I am a prisoner here. The good thing though is that I have this journal here with me so I can write down this strange events. I feel kinda tired though, so tired that I can’t stand anymore. Please, God, help m………….
