Thread: [Silent Hill] Waffles&ii

??You actually expect me to stay overnight at some supposed haunted town for only a hundred and fifty bucks? I think my life is worth just a bit more than that,? Aimee Jade James mumbled as her dark blue eyes moved from the television set to Kelly, her best friend. They were college students, about halfway through their sophomore year. Aimee Jade was nineteen, Kelly was twenty. They became best friends the second they came to this school, having been put in the same dorm room in freshman year. At first they hated each other, but by the end of first semester they had already planned to room together for the rest of their college experience. At the moment, they were lounging in their dorm, room 409. Two other people were in the room Kelly??s boyfriend Sean was sitting on Kelly??s lap not really paying attention to anything but the television. Matthew, one of Sean??s best friends, was sitting on the floor leaning against Aimee Jade??s bed, his glance shifting from each person in the room to the television as well. On the television was a news report of Silent Hill. Another child, approximately ten years old, went missing. These missing child reports were starting to get overbearing. There was never any hint as to where they went. It was like they had disappeared into thin air. This is what gave the town of Silent Hill its reputation the haunted town. Of course, to each their own beliefs and, quite frankly, Aimee Jade didn??t believe in any of it, even though the town began to plague her dreams. In fact, the other day while sitting in class she had some sort of flashback to a fiery pit in Silent Hill and she had to excuse herself from a test just to calm down. It was as if she??d been to Silent Hill before, and it was calling for her to come back. But that wasn??t possible! She could remember almost her whole life perfectly, there was nothing to connect her to Silent Hill?right? But then again, her mind was fuzzy when it came to her birth all the way up to when she was about five. Most people at least remember certain things from when they were that young. Sean cleared his throat, as if trying to get everybody??s attention. ??You don??t think you??re worth a hundred and fifty? Well, not to Matt you??re not. You??re worth billions.? Sean laughed as Matthew grabbed a small stuffed plush that had fallen from Aimee Jade??s bed and threw it at the boy, grunting. ??Yo??, shut up man. I??m not, like, in love with her.? He rolled his eyes and slunk down a bit. It was obvious that both Aimee Jade and Matthew had some feelings towards each other that they had been dancing around ever since they met. ??Hey?how about this Each of us give you like two hundred if you spend the night there?? Kelly practically interrupted him. ??Whoa, whoa, whoa! If that??s the case, she??s getting six hundred! I think it should be two hundred a night. If you??re willing to spend this Friday, Saturday, and Sunday in Silent Hill, alone, then you??ll get six hundred big ones.? Aimee Jade just rolled her eyes. ??Fine, whatever. I get to waste a nice weekend in some ghost town. But at least I get a good amount of cash out of it.? She chuckled. ??Maybe once I come back alive, you guys??ll finally realize that Silent Hill is just an empty town, nothing more.? So that was it. For six hundred dollars Aimee Jade was going to spend the weekend in Silent Hill. Thinking nothing but money would come of it, Aimee Jade prepared for a boring weekend. She??d need a flashlight, her iPod, her cell phone, and of course some food. Throwing the contents, along with a small throw blanket, into a bag, she got ready to go and squeezed into Sean??s small car as he drove the four of them to Silent Hill. It was a long drive, about six hours, and for over half of that time each person took their turn in trying to scare Aimee Jade. ??You??ll die, you??ll be kidnapped,? They??d go on saying, but Aimee Jade didn??t back down. It wasn??t that they were scared for Aimee Jade??s life, it was that they didn??t want to have to give her so much money! Finally arriving in Silent Hill, Matthew, Sean, and Kelly dropped Aimee Jade off. ??We??ll be back here early Monday morning at around six to pick you up so you don??t miss any of your classes. If you need anything, just give us a call. But remember, if you bail out, you??re not getting any money!? Each of them took the time to give Aimee Jade a hug, and then they left, Leaving Aimee Jade alone in Silent Hill. The sun was high in the sky as Aimee Jade walked around. The backpack on her back seemed very heavy, and the long drive had worn her out. At this point, she wanted to find maybe a rundown motel or an empty house and set up camp for the weekend. She should be able to make herself at least somewhat comfortably for the duration of her stay. So when she finally stumbled upon a large hotel she went in and opened the heavy door, which in turn creaked back at her as if to warn her to stay away.
