A Harsh Slap in the Face

Mar 15, 2011 13:26

"There has to be something...." Arthur mumbled to himself. He opened any doors he came by, but none seemed to hold what he was searching for. "One would think a place that generates any type of room at random would at least have something of a market or the like. I wanted to find a birthday present for-"

Cut for kind of lengthy and unsettling content. )

Your AU sounds intense. It's awesome though. Hope you don't mind me tagging. si_espana March 17 2011, 00:21:39 UTC
[Spain is just making his way through HQ, exploring as usual, when he suddenly hears a scream. Startled, he looks towards the direction it comes from and quickly goes to investigate. He finds nothing amiss down the hallway he searches, but he does find what looks like a collapsed England]

[Concerned, though also wary, he crouches down before the other] Arthur? Are you all right?

Ooh, man. If you haven't seen it before, I reccomend watching a Lets Play for the game. oilandtinderbox March 17 2011, 01:11:23 UTC
[He's curled into himself, sobbing and whimpering.] Make it stop, dear god! Please make it stop!!

[ooc: This is the one I watched: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhfTnxG7lLY It's such a scary game D:]

I'll do that. Thanks for the link! si_espana March 17 2011, 01:14:39 UTC
[The sobbing and whimpering makes alarm bells sound off in Spain's head. More concerned now than ever, he leans closer, reaches, and places his hands by the other's arms, trying to get his attention]

Arthur. Arthur? Can you hear me?

No problem :D oilandtinderbox March 17 2011, 01:20:07 UTC
[His eyes fly open to look at the Spaniard. His expression is one of pure terror. But as his heart begins to slow back down, he manages to whisper;] ... Is it gone?

[Now that really has him worried] Is what gone?

[Spain didn't see, feel, or hear anything]

The Shadow. [He squeezes his eyes shut and shakes his head a little.] It's horrid. It clings to the walls, the floors - everything. It's after me. There's no way to escape it. I can't... [He continues to ramble on and on.]

The Shadow? [Spain hasn't heard of anything like that before. They would have to discuss this further] Was it here?

[He looks around and really tries to see for anything, but he sees nothing strange] Let us go somewhere else, yes?

... Please. Someplace... away from the dark... [He tries to stand up, but his legs seem to have lost their strength.]

[He nods and carefully helps the other up, his grip firm, but gentle] Come on.

[He leans against the other man for support, still muttering on, mostly about the shadow, beneath his breath.]

The shadow of the orb.... Damn that Alexander...

[Arthur's words are indecipherable to him, but he doesn't interrupt him as he leads him away to somewhere with more light. The only place he can think of is out in the gardens. He leads them there]

[Oh, light. Sweet, blessed light.] Thank you, sir.

[Spain smiles to him as he leads him out into the sun and fresh air] You're welcome.

[Thoughts are starting to become clear.] Oh, good lord....

si_espana March 17 2011, 02:57:08 UTC
[Those words put Spain back on alert as he looks around] What is it?

I... I just don't understand... Why was the Shadow there?
