Through the Lifeless

How are you okay girl?

"let us go swimming!"

"let us go swimming!"

The 14 year old teens were chanting in the picnic bus.

"But there's not much time left!" the teacher stated.

"It's alright, we'll be quick. Also, you promised!" Sayaka demanded.

[Sayaka sazoka, a very obstinate Aquarius. Youngest daughter with three older step-brothers and an older sister. Not very fond of her family. Loves ice cream and rubics cube. Please don't provoke her]

"Alright, get ready and have a bath, the boys will return soon" the teacher said with a sigh.

(Scene shifts to the poolside where the boys were leaving and the girls were heading towards the pool. On her way Sayaka turned back and gave a glance, then looked at the sky, the wind seemed different.)

"I don't have a good feeling about this-" Sayaka.

(Before she finished a dense thick cloud appeared in this sky, Sayaka quickly reacted.)

"Hold your breath" she yelled as she jumped to the ground as others ran and screamed in panic.

Then appeared green clouded faces chasing everyone and killing them.

In seconds everyone was dead and the green clouded faces headed to the next place.

Everyone was lying there lifeless, all the children that were the future remained there away from their family.

Slowly sayaka opened her eyes.

She was still alive, she was playing dead to escape death.

She looked around for a second if she was safe to move.

In a moment, she got up and ran through the dead bodies and blood puddles towards the bus.

She found her teacher lying on the bus stairs lifeless, without thinking much she moved aside the body and climbed up.

She checked everyone's belongings and took a few food items, money and a baseball bat in a backpack.

She changed back to her black pants and hoodie.

She left the bus immediately and gave the resort one last glace before leaving.

There were few bodies out side the resort gate as well.

But, as she walked and reached the main road everything was normal, she called a taxi and left for home.

She paid for the taxi from her teacher's purse which she took along.

It was sunset when she reached her home.

"You came home quite early! Come join us for dinner" sayaka's mom invited.

"I'll have it later, I'm full" Sayaka replied coldly.

She took a bath and lay down on her bed.

The teen was staring at the stars through the waving curtains.

Just as she was watching the wind got stronger.

She flinched and got up.

Immediately took her backpack, blanket and left the house with her parents speechless.

She went behind the house which was a mountainous and rocky part.

She hid herself in a dark hole and covered herself in a blanket.

Her phone suddenly beeped, she silenced it immediately. It was a call from her mom.

She switched off her phone and relaxed gently closing her eyes a little.

The sky which was clear a moment ago once again was covered with the green clouds.

She got glimpses of the green cloud faces at a distance from her.

She gradually fell into deep sleep as her family was getting killed.

She knows something

The Sun was breaking through the leaves and shining bright on her face.

A little centipede was slithering over the right leg waking her up from the sleep.

Simply she grabbed it and returned it to its home, the nature.

She then Climbes down the rock with her stuff and heads off.

(why did she even bring it, 😀)

Ignoring the unknown dead bodies laying around everywhere she enters her house only to find familiar dead bodies covered in blood that was drying up.

she Stood there frozen and emotionless for a moment. A single tear escaped her left eye before she wipes it and heads to her room.

She got changed, put her phone and power bank to charge (Surprisingly electricity was not cut off) and grabbed some breakfast.

She finished off burying the bodies by sunset.

(Back to her room)

She pulls out a unique metal box with a rusty golden daisy symbol.

Opens it revealing a few old papers cards and a book with a page almost falling out.

She grabs the book and sits under the light.

And address was written:

"Conclave for God in the city of AutumnVale”

She circled it.

Even Though her face was expressionless anyone could make out she had a plan.

She got to garage and started a car that was placed there, for quite a while she kept crashing around. Obviously she was 14 she didn't know how to drive a car.

Prepared a few cans of petrol and robbed the neighbouring houses. (If that's what you call robbing)

She then got on a cycle (idk whose it is) and went to the mall and picked specific items. (Without paying for them 😭)

At home now she was bandaging her elbow, wait when did she get hurt?

Flashback:

She was riding the bicycle with earphones on her ears, when she came near parking lot she accidentally rode over a dead body and lost her balance.

she gets up and moves the body away from the path.

she was about to leave, but decides to go back and rob him as well

Seriously girl?

“concert tickets? Man must have been quite rich!!! There are two, for his wife?” sayaka throws it away carelessly.

“Wait, this watch its limited edition! He is really rich 😭, oh wait, sorry. He 'was' rich not anymore” she Pats him intending to sympathize but them she walks away with the limited edition watch.

while wearing the watch she notices her bleeding elbow.

“seriously? all because of that man!!!” sayaka says whining like a toddler.

Girl Hub:

At the super market.

“Now the sanitary pads have become quite cheap haven't they?” sayaka says taking about ton of them.

“I might as well use a few make up products” shoves in a few makeup products.

“ah ropes,check. Comics, check. Plushies, check 😊. And......”

Her list won't end, sayaka darling how long were you waiting for this moment?  😭😭😭

[Hope it wasn't too short, meet you in the next part]

Autumn-vale

A not-so-extravagant pastel blue car passed by, gushing through the sharp turnings of the narrow lanes.

The vehicle was new, evident from its shine, but also covered in newly made careless dents.

It slowed down as it neared a signboard "Autumn-vale."  She gave a glance before she strengthened her gaze and hit the accelerator.

During her journey, she made a few stops to grab some food and take short breaks.

Ultimately, the automobile arrived at its destination and relaxed in the damp soil.

Harshly shutting the door after her, she entered the average-looking building with her weapons.

In the darkness of the room, she fumbled for the switch of her flashlight and finally managed to illuminate the side walls.

As the beam of light swept across the room, she carefully scanned the area, her heart pounding with anticipation.

As she switched off the torch, a dimly lit dome-shaped area came into view. In the center of which, a unique chair with intricate carvings was positioned firmly on the ground, casting intriguing shadows in the faint light.

The room contained ropes designed for restraining humans and various wires arranged in a manner reminiscent of an experimental apparatus.

Sayaka collapsed to the ground at its sight; a series of strange noises mixed with the scary screams of a little girl were heard.

She tightly pressed her hands against both her ears, blocking out all sound, and then closed her eyes tightly. At that moment, a series of quick, red-tinted horror visions flashed through her mind before disappearing just as quickly.

After a moment of deep breaths and quieting her racing thoughts, Sayaka managed to regain her composure. With conscious movements, she slowly rose to her feet.

She proceeded down the corridor on the opposite side of the dome, pausing in the dimly lit alley.

She bent down, brushed her fingers on the dusty floor, and located a square tile, completely hidden from the bare eye.

When she stepped on it with her right foot, a passageway with stairs leading down into the dark opened up on the right side wall.

She descended with her torch in hand, alert as ever.

She froze at the end of the stairs, not because of someone but because of the room.

It contained everything you require to torment humans.

There stood compartments made of metal but used for raising humans like cattle.

As she moves through the rows of countless cells, her steps lead her to a particular one marked with the number "88." The metal plate is securely screwed onto the door.

Her eyes soften as she takes in the sight of dried blood stains and layers of dirt that have accumulated within the confines of the cell.

As she stands before the cell, she carefully rolls up her left sleeve, revealing a tattoo of the number "88" etched on her skin.

With a determined look in her eyes, she swiftly reaches for a hammer, using it to forcefully break off the lock securing the cell door.

With the path now clear, she unlocks the cell and then proceeds to lift the bottom metal plate with a sense of urgency and purpose.

Underneath it was an acrylic box containing 12 identical translucent liquids, each with small glass bottles.

She quickly placed the box in her bag and left the cell.

What were those bottles about?

How was she related to this place?

Has she been here before?
