The door creaked open with the typical howl you would expect from a door leading to an ominous meeting inside of a house with a portal to hell located inside of it. No one, not a one of us, seemed to become rattled from the creak and all of its creepiness. The first ever meeting of The Wall was about to take place and it was time to meet all of the players. Actually, I noticed someone inside that even I did not know.
There were far more people than I expected to be here. Each person was surrounded by blazing candles, tall slender candles that melted down slowly and tilted whichever way they wanted to as their life came to an end, a fiery smoldering end. Going from left to right, Nurse Helen started us off, then Mrs. Tannell dressed in some very comfortable looking garb, and in the far corn
The boom that we had heard earlier in at the start of the meeting had been unsettling, but we soon realized that it was not a big deal, that Mrs. Tannell had rigged up an area around the portal to ensure that the demons that tried to pass into the land of the living were quickly evaporated and sent right back to hell. The second boom, however, that one was far more intense and affected the living world around us, that was not supposed to happen. We all adjusted to get ready for whatever may come, large or small, it was our job now. Somehow during the massive sound explosion, Jackson was able to remain calm and cool, he seemed to be very relaxed now that he knew he was around folks that had some extraordinary abilities, and he was one of the few that was able to perform some miraculous tasks when the time ca
Completely disregarding Mr. Tannell’s very clear instructions, Sarah Macly surged forward heading directly for the final remaining piece of the shelter that remained in place, shielding our view of the demon that had made it through the portal located in Mrs. Tannell’s living room. This was a complete contradiction to what we were told to do and clearly an insubordinate act for the sake of showing off by being absolutely reckless.Before any of us could intervene, Sarah fired a bright orange basketball size flame ball at the remaining lone piece of structure. Jennifer had already begun an 'I wish' statement towards Sarah, but it was too late. Her flaming ball of hate and destruction had already begun its expedited journey towards whatever beast was waiting behind the tattered structure.&nbs
With absolutely zero hesitation, those of us on the front line (Me, Jennifer, Jackson, and Sarah) began taking turns attempting to fatally wound the demon that had made it through the portal and past all of the mirrors set up to destroy it upon entry into this world. Each person took a turn and to me, they all seemed to be way too passive with the demon. Nothing seemed to be working effectively, the three headed beast was just growing annoyed. If you take a second and think about being sick and not going to the doctor. You self-diagnose and determine you are sick with a cold, so you treat the illness as if it were a cold. Turns out, you had the flu the entire time and have been treating a few symptoms but not actually treating the main source of the sickness. We just had to determine the s
The demon’s chest cavity, dark and shriveled, was wide open. Each bone Todd encountered had hundreds of small spines growing from them, like thorns on a rose bush. For some reason, we all disregarded the gruesomeness of what we were looking at. It was a relatively human type of corpse, except for the extra heads, legs and arms. You had to use your imagination to really let the demon have some type of place in your heart, human wise. Todd was being as delicate as possible, moving slower than the slowest three toed sloth. "I have read that one prick from any of a demons thorns results in immediate excruciating death. Please, keep your distance and do not rush me," he said. The entirety of Mrs. Tannell’s home had become entrenched in an odor I can only describe as fresh shit out of water. If you do not know, let me enlighten you. When you defecate into a toilet bowl full of water, the liquid acts as a capsule of sorts and
The screaming from outside subsided suddenly, as if the person that was screaming had passed out or flat out vanished from the face of the Earth. A dragging sound could be heard getting louder and louder as time passed. The large front door burst open, covering the area with a heavy calming moonlight but that light failed to ease our nerves because of how intense and frightening the screaming from outside was. I had only ever heard a scream like that before once in my lifetime and it was from a small woman on the side of the road when we went on vacation as a family. We saw her pulled to the left on the highway which was almost a certain death sentence. My father pulled over in front of her and went to see if he could help her. She said the engine was acting funny and was about to pop the hood. When she did, my father discovered a tattered mess of an animal splattered throughout the engine bay. Turns out, it was her childhood cat tha
The portal began to hiss and rumble so loudly that it felt as if the devil himself were coming through. Todd was still working away, delicately dissecting the dead demon while Nurse Helen took the yellow orb that we obtained from the murdered woman from Mrs. Tannell. Mrs. Tannell removed her metallic box that somehow used the orbs' energy to give her spiritual power and set that beside Jennifer. Nurse Helen grabbed the metallic box, opened it and added the yellow orb to the box. My mind instantly questioned why she had done that until she pushed a hidden button on the side and two long clear holes slithered out from either side of the metallic box. These hoses would act as IVs for Jennifer, installing the power from the yellow orb into her body and hopefully bringing her back to the land of the living. We desperately needed this to work as the portal was certainly transporting something large from hell right to our feet. I sa
Jennifer finally came back to us, slow and sluggish, but she was back and aware of all that had happened. Sarah Macly, our telekinetic mastermind and my childhood enemy, was unharmed by my actions and the actions of the wickedly huge, winged demon. Mrs. Tannell was not concerned with what we thought of her, at least that is what her face said, and delighted in the fact that we had been pressed against the wall and fought our way back using strategy and tactics. She said, "That was an impressive display of teamwork folks. There are always going to be a few areas we can improve upon, no matter what the circumstances are but overall, we did great." I suppose she caught me rolling my tired eyes when she spoke because I became the center of her attention. She had done something very wrong but for a good reason, that did not make it right in any way, shape, or form.The Wall would not survive any sort of negative actions, espe
The fall through the portal was seemingly instantaneous and nonstop at the same time. I know that makes no sense but that is just how it felt to me. I knew I was doomed as soon as I fell into the portal to hell, but I was going to make sure that the devil got to know my face, that was for damn sure. I can tell you one thing that may help you in the future if you are ever falling into a portal to hell, there are a ton of dead babies. All of which ate in varying forms of decomposition. My eyes could not shield my mind from the sights of all the dead babies. The fall was nonstop, and it felt as if I were staring through water to see all the terrifying sights on my way down. When you think of hell, we tend to think of red, orange, fire, and pain. So far, I had yet to land, but all I saw was blue and dead babies with mortified looks on all their undeveloped faces. Having never had a baby or been pregnant, hell, I had n
