Ch.23 Nightmares

No connection Andrew sat staring at the screen in front of him the annoying buzz of the static filled screen rang hollow in his ears.

"Where am I?" Andrew asked as he looked around the buzz of the screen quickly become a background noise the room was dark and he couldn't tell how far or wide it was.

"This isn't my room?" he thought as he stood staring into the unending void in front of him finding nothing to answer his question he turned back toward the screen at least that was something.

"It's gone?" Andrew asked himself as he looked down the hallway in front of him. Why was he in a hallway? oh right there was that gun shoot and that crash he need to go tell the teacher that was chaperoning them. Who was the teacher again wasn't it Christopher's mother Mrs. Thornton. Wait? Andrew stopped the hallway he was in was familiar to the hotels but the doors in this hall way had no number on their frames. HIs room should be 441 he was sharing it with Jace, Christopher and Han actually how were Christopher and Han it felt like he hadn't seen them in a while.

"Where are thouse lazy fucks always making me do the hard parts why did I have to go to the girls section." All the guys and male chaperones were on the fourth flour while all the girls were on the third, "Really shouldn't Christopher be doing this I mean it's his mom and all." Andrew muttered as he looked up he saw door 375.

"Hu guess I found it." Andrew said as he started to open the door "Oh its already open I wonder why."

Something didn't feel right here didn't Christopher come to get his mother why was it taking so long why was the door open?

"Hello?" Andrew asked as he opened the door he could here whispers as he moved it open.

"They can be......We have always.....................never hope.........jump."

"no point in ....... GET UP!!..........goodbye......I'm scared."

"Break them ....... Three days........ no time........forget."

"Join me........Join us........resistance...........burn it"

As the whispers continued nonsensically jabbering Andrew peared into the dark room.

Inside he saw a head hanging limply from the esophagus it seemed to be pulled out almost a foot from the throat the body in front of him looked like his teachers but flayed the skin hung like rags around the body the hands and feet were twisted into some kind of clawed hands the chest had been torn open the broken ribs poked out from the sides black growths jutted out from the corpse so black that Andrew couldn't properly perceive them they covered the body as its head slowly rose up swaying to some unhearable tune,

The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

Andrew looked on in horror as he saw the deformed corpse of Christopher laying limp in a puddle of black blood as it slowly oozed into his body Christopher's deformed mother ribs clacked as her ribes moved her body. Andrew saw this happening unable to move as the creature turned opening wide its four twisted claws as if for an embrace.

"Do not fear" It whispered to as the black eyed head of Mrs. Thompson smiled "We are salvation."

"Um hm riiiiight." Andrew said as he moved to shut the door but the creature moved faster striking out Andrew fell feeling agony from his destroyed eye as the hallway grew further and further away revealing a starry sky that grew darker and darker as the pinpoints of light vanished one after the other leaving him in total darkness. Floating in the nothingness Andrew felt a sudden sting, standing up he looked at the gathering storm heads above him. "Was rain supposed to hurt?" Andrew asked as he started walking.

"How far have I walked?" Andrew thought out loud as he turned to look behind him in the distances he saw a light in the distances.

"What is this?" Andrew asked as he trudged through the heavy rain towards the light Andrew felt the shadow gathering behind him as he moved forward. As he got closer to the light sparkles off light started to peel off of it and fly towards the gathering shadows before briefly blooming into fire and light.

"Hm it's pointless to try and destroy something that doesn't exist." Andrew muttered as he moved through the light show the air around him began to be choked with soot and ash.

"Don't run." Andrew heard the whisper from the glossy black eyes that followed behind him.

"I'm not running I'm walking dumbass." Andrew grumbled he had just managed to ignore the nonsensical voices and now they had to come back to annoy him. "How long must we chase this essence of heat we have better things to do."

"Then just leave." Andrew said "Great now i'm talking to the voices in my head." Andrew groaned he was so close to the light but he might be insane by the time he got there.

"Have o agony continue the hunt salvation is required elsewhere." the whispers continued as Andrew reached the light it was a strange thing it looked almost like a portal a piece of twisted metal and stone that curved in ways that his mind denied being possible it revolted him as much as it attracted him it made him feel sick and ecstatic.

"This is weird I feel like throwing up" A voice said to Andrews right, looking at it he realized that he wasn't alone. There were others around him but he couldn't recognize them as anything more than a silhouette. As they gathered around the light and prepared to move through taking turns to cross its threshold.

"Well it begins again how annoying." The gathering shadows whispered before descending on the ones that remained Andrew could only watch as those around him began being dragged off into oblivion.

Andrew waited anxious as he was stuck in the middle it became more and more tense as the speed increased and Andrew grew closer and closer to the portal of light. Avoiding another grasping shadow Andrew made it to the foot of the portal as he stated to move through he remembered something.

"Wait aren't you not supposed to go towards the light?" was the last thing Andrew thought before waking up.
