And I'd give it all away
Just to have somewhere to go to
Give it all away
To have someone to come home to…
She sang as she wandered through the fog, she was merely a 17 year old girl with very unusual features; her skin was pale and she was born with her left eye blue as her right eyes was green with small flecks of brown in them both, her hair was black as midnight, long in the back and fell to her waist while her bangs were parted so most of them hung over her green eye. She mainly wore a long black dress with black silk gauntlets that had a loop for her middle finger, however the one thing that the people in the Church found peculiar about her was that she always carried a long dagger on her hip; it was slender but quite sharp in the hands of a novice; the case was in a similar shape that most people fears but it was too slim for then to hold an actual comparison to what they thought it looked like. She was a very hard young women to get close to but she seemed to dislike human companionship and seemed only content with her pencils and blank books waiting to be filled with whatever would allow her to draw it; to her it wasn't a problem in Silent Hill, the dense fog hid small grey children with faces twisted in eternal agony as if their lives were cut short by some terrible force while figures without arms and faces desperately scoured the streets in search of something to feast on or melt with the acid they spewed from cavities in their chest, for some reason these creatures never seemed hostile toward her; it bothered the Fathers and Sisters of the Church who often found her actions with uncertain glares at the girl who often wondered the fogs only to be seen walking in the far playground among the skinned hounds that stalked the streets for scrapes or for easy prey. The day when everything started wasn't much different since the girl was looking at a young skinned hound who was looking up at her from a playful position as it's boney tail swept through the air from skin to side, the girl was sitting a few feet away finishing her drawing of the creature before she pulled out a lump of meat that she had found and tossed it to the pup,
"Small little killer."
She said chuckling as the pup attacked the grey flesh, she wasn't very fearful of the Grey Children and often killed them either for sport or to feed a starved hound or a small pack of pups too young to hunt. She watched the pup with gentle eyes as it laid down then looked into the girl's odd eyes with loyalty rolling over then clumsily walking up to her and rubbing it's face in her hands,
"I'd keep you if I could Gabriel." She said, using her name for the young hound, "But you know those fools in the Church…They say you're the Devil's hound and that your evil, but I see no evil in you…Only in them."
She said as the pup whined then was suddenly scared off by the sound of a bullet, the girl did nothing but glare to the west to see an elderly man with a women in her late 20's run up her as she emotionlessly gathered up her note book and pencils; they looked her over to see that she was fine then glared the way the pup ran off with dark looks as if they were locked in a battle with the Devil's creatures. The girl merely shook her head then walked pasted them without a word before the man spoke,
"Siren…" He said, his voice trying to be scolding, "You know the law of our Lord…Those creatures are damned and under the service of Pyramid Head!"
The man said with a cold voice, Siren merely sighed then shook her head before she turned to face the two with eyes circled in thick black lines; they knew that she wouldn't listen to them, she never did because she didn't believe in the things that they said and went with her instinct; which was what had made her what she was from the sad 11 year old girl who first arrived in Silent Hill; but she had forgotten those darker days in the peaceful blankets of fog and the strange creatures who sought her out of some form of companionship.
"You know Hounds are loyal creatures if you can earn their trust…The Grey Children weep for their mothers and fathers who abused them…And the Lying Figures simply deceive us all with seemingly harmless faces."
Siren said as she started to walk back to the place she called home, the Church that hated her and shunned her for being who she was, she wasn't like them and she knew it just as well as they did; they called her
'Freak' and 'Witch' but the one that would often upset her was 'The Summoner of Demons'
In fact Siren never really summoned anything; the creatures merely sought her out then followed her from there as she went about her normal business, she could most likely walk up to the Church to have them wait for her outside but she didn't want any harm to come to them if the others saw them. She had often heard the older members of the Church talking about forcing her out of the Church but the younger women always found it cold and cruel until they saw how she spent her time; she spent her time in the dense fog killing off Grey Children for sport or drawing them when they chose to remain still, Siren was considered a demon in human skin among the older staff for the way she was and how the monsters reacted when she was around; they often refused to look her way or kept themselves at a lower posture then she was unless she wanted to draw them,
And so I return to Hell
Siren thought as she quietly slipped inside of the Church and walked to her room. Her room was down in the basement of the Church because the Priests felt that the darkness would suite her more than being around the other children, it was a shame when she scared away those her age; they said she was strange looking, her odd eyes made them afraid because no one else had them and her skin was pale like the fog; however a sudden knock drew her from the thoughts of the Church as sirens blared in the distance, "Siren, open this door." Someone said from the other side of her door as she calming walked to it humming with the sounds she often heard minutes after the sirens would blare; she opened the door to see three of the older Priests as they shoved a bag into her hand,
"The people we sent to look for you earlier were found dead…Devoured by the Hounds of Pyramid Head!..Pack your things and get out!"
The oldest one yelled, Siren merely nodded then packed up her note books and pencils before she put her clothes in the bag as well and calmly walked from her room then through a long hall way where everyone in the Church stood on either side of the hall, as she walked through the hall the people began to pray; not for her but for the purity to return to their Church and for the people lost to the Hounds. Siren walked outside to find the fog slightly clearer to her then it was before as she sighed walking from the Church as a small skinned pup barked in the distance, Siren smiled then whistled for the small pup to come to her as a few other Hounds in the area walked up to her, she looked around until she saw Gabriel who was so excited his bottom was wiggling as his tail wagged.
"Well it looks like I can keep you after all Gab."
Siren said as she picked up the pup and stared to walk through the fog while the other Hounds scoured the area around her for anything that they could kill and eat, she never understood why the creatures never tried to attack her or at least chase after her but instead they seemed to want to avoid her; then again she did tend to often nibble at some pieces of a Grey Child for a snack, but she was developing a liking for them as actual meals, but sometimes they weren't as good as actual human food. Things seemed quiet until the sudden blaring of the sirens went off and Siren heard some of the Hounds howl then run to her side as they both growled then whimpered looking up at her as if they were nervous about something that Siren hadn't seen before, her curiosity was piqued when she heard the familiar chants as the world around her seemed to peel away,
"Finally…"
Siren said as she looked to the sky and lifted her arms as if she was welcoming the new world that was coming into view as the Hounds sat around her with their fangs faintly barred as the sudden sound of scrapping metal could be heard; siren wasn't sure what it was but she was damn well going to find out what it was even if she had to kill whatever was causing the noise just to see it, the Hounds however were less eager and nudged her until she gave a faint growl then retreated a safe distance from the sound with the dogs close behind before she and the Hounds went into an abandoned house.
"Okay, now what smart guys?"
She asked as the Hounds looked up at her, begging for attention that they seemed so starved of; Siren sighed and sat against the door as she nodded off to sleep with ten of the skinless creatures huddled against her as she slept, not knowing what was heading her way, hiding in the dense fog.
RAPE…KILL…EAT
Those were the words that always flowed through his mind when he came to the world of Light after Darkness took it, he had other thoughts as well but that was when he was confided in that place he called 'home'. Home to him was were the nurses await his attention in a lower area, he never had a mind to kill them, as long as they didn't attack him while he had his way with them; to him they meant nothing but a good fuck, but they treated him as any Harem slave would treat their Master, they kissed his chest and ran their lifeless hands over his skin as he used them for his own release then threw them aside before he went back to the small room that he called home. This time however he was hungry, and had caught the scent of something that wasn't exactly what he would call normal prey, he flared his unnaturally long tongue to catch the scent, similar to what a snake would do.
It smells like Hounds…And something else…
He thought as lumbered into the fogged area, the Great Knife he always carried drug behind him creating a loud screeching sound that was amplified inside of his helmet that gained him a name that he hated; his helmet was similar to the shape of a pyramid, but the bottom hung down much like an Executioner's mask..
But no!...They must called me by a name that' not mine!
The darker side of the man snarled in his mind, it was true the helmet did look like a pyramid but they had no right on the plain that he ruled to name him 'Pyramid Head' The thought of the name even sickened him as he followed the scent of the strange creature, he soon found that the more he followed the scent the more it separated into smaller scents, more unique scents of each creature that had made up the larger scent until they had picked out the scent that confused him the most.
A Human following Hounds? He thought as he came to a halt, No…There's no way
It seems to be the other way around…The Hounds are following the Human.
The man stopped in thought before he shook his head then resumed his pursuit of his prey with the same words flowing through his mind,
.Eat….
