Sasha was on the third floor and talked with the General about the shop.
They discussed everything and it turns out, he was one of the survivors of the kidnapping in 1949.
"I was a kid back then, I entered the store and asked the cashier if I could get some cookies. He handed it to me but grabbed me and threw in those piles of boxes. I wandered around and saw this creature, perhaps an entity that was staring at me. The stare was so scary that I almost passed out. Its eyes were bright wide and its smile was so creepy. I went upstairs and I saw a weird dude sleeping on a desk. I approached the room very slowly and told myself if I could do it. I went for a little peek outside the door and the desk was full of guns. The walls were full of different kinds of weapons and at the end of it were machines with blood. I heard someone coming so I went down and hid in the boxes. There were kids and people that were getting taken into a room. All of them were screaming and hitting these people but I think those strong bodyguards can't feel anything. I found this hole behind the boxes and crawled under and voila, I escaped that piece of shit."
"Okay so that room was beside the boss' room right?" she asked.
"Indeed"
"We found bodies in there! Inside it! It was a room in a room!"
"Well, the surviving officers said that it was just a cabinet inside the room, no more doors."
"What? It was the first thing we saw there when we got up! This can't be real"
"Well, their boss and the entities are good at making illusions inside the store. Everything you see and feel in there are all just imaginations. THEY are controlling you inside that store. Once you step in, your life would be hell-like."
"Yes. My life changed because of that."
"And also mine, there were many more victims but other cases shutted down
because of low evidence. Just like the "You Only Live Once Incident" in 1942 and the "The Ingredients Incident" in 1949. All of the people that were in that case are dead. No one escaped Death in them. But I, you, have the chance to stop this from killing more people. Grab the guns and the knife. We'll go down there and kill those motherfuckers up!"
Both of them went down to the ground floor and looked around.
They heard someone sniffing beneath the stairs. They went down quietly and gently. No footsteps were heard.
Then, seconds later, they surprised the people underneath the stairs and aimed at them.
"Sasha!"
She hugged them while the General was guarding them.
"We cheated the system in the cards, the weakness of them is to burn the shop into ashes."
'You made good use of that card huh? I didn't know that you knew how to use that shit" Sasha replied.
"Look, we need to hurry right now. If we can't stop them in time, the entities will be free and roam the city. Probably would kill lots of people in the city. We need to act fast now."
"General, let's go" just as they were about to look outside the stairs, they saw the general.
He was slashed by the sharp tentacles of Lorie.
"Here! Get all the weapons!"
Lorie looked under the stairs and reached its tentacles there. Eventually, it got McLaurel and she screamed.
All of them shoot Lorie continuously until the path is clear.
"Aim for the head!" Dex screamed.
McLaurel ran towards them while Lorie backed out.
They ran to the exit, the police station was almost covered in blood.
Many people lay upon the ground and bleeding to their deaths.
They reached the parking lot and immediately entered the car. Nico hurriedly put the key into the keyhole and turned it.
He drove but the man was standing at the exit of the parking lot.
They got scared and worried because he was holding an axe.
Nico drove so fast but when the man threw the axe, it landed perfectly on Liz's head.
She bled and her eyes were still open.
Sasha screamed out of terror. Nico cried while driving, his heart shattered into pieces.
"Why would this happen to her?" Nico sobbed.
"We can't escape Death, Nico. It's always unexpected." McLaurel said.
"We have to put an end to this! I will do anything so that this shop will burn down. I assure all of you!" Nico said it fiercely.
Minutes later, they arrived at the shop. It was still closed after the incident a few months ago. All their painful memories were stored here.
It was midnight and they knew no one would see them.
Dex filled all the areas of the store. Nico lit up the fire with the lighter, he threw it away and the front of the shop exploded. Half of the shop was burning down.
All of a sudden, all of the entities arrived and surrounded them. They were in the middle and grabbed their guns.
The entities faded away into ashes, leaving only the Unknown Man.
"Who are you!" Nico shouted.
"Reveal yourself." McLaurel added.
The man removed his mask and it was the owner of the shop— Michael Harrington.
"How are you still alive?" Dex asked.
"It's because of them. They revived me with my son's diary. But you, you all destroyed it. But now, I can't do anything."
Michael answered.
"I'm glad they burnt it." Dex replied.
"I would also like you to know, Death is always nearby. Watching every movement of yours. Death is coming for you and you can't escape it. It is already finalized that you will be next."
"You are a son of a demon!" Dex replied
"Surely, I am. And by the way, you are on the road." Michael said.
They looked to their left and saw that there was a truck coming with an intense speed that a brake wouldn't handle.
Michael smiled and dripped blood in his eyes.
McLaurel, Dex and Nico were struck by the truck and they got dragged until it crashed into a building while Sasha ran as it was about to come in the way.
She jumped so high and reached the sidewalk. But, she got hit with the lamp and bled. She was still awake and looked at the
truck.
The driver of the truck went down but it was all shadows.
He walked towards the light and it was revealed that the driver was The Boy.
"You thought that I wouldn't come back, didn't you?"
"No"
"Well, I'll let you live for now. See you when I see you." The boy ended the conversation and went towards the burning shop.
He entered it fearlessly but then, he was never seen again.
The sun rose up and police from different towns went to the incident.
The bodies and Sasha were brought to the hospital.
Dex and Nico didn't survive but McLaurel and Sasha survived with severe injuries.
Sasha opened the TV and she watched the news.
"24 people were found dead in the police station and 2 in Gallagher's Street. Only 2 people survived the incident. Sasha Williams and Sam McLaurel. In the shop's past incidents, the victims didn't succeed and all of them died. This is the first time victims have brought an end to this cursed shop. This is all the news today on Channel 105!"
Doctor Steph entered her room and
checked her if she was okay.
"I don't feel that good. My head really hurts and I feel dizzy" she said to the doctor.
"Do not worry, the dizziness and the pain will go away in 3 days. Just always drink your medicine and eat healthy foods, okay?" Doctor Steph replied.
She nodded and he left the room.
She remembered all the memories of her friends and realized.
Dex was already dead months ago— who was with them? That still remained as a mystery to the ones who were with them.
5 months later, Sasha moved out to New York city and she had a happy family there.
A book was published by the officers of GreenLand and named it "The Story of Sasha".
She was well-known not just by the GreenLand residents, but also the whole of America knows who exactly she is.
Sasha got into billboards and reality shows.
Now, everyone knows Sasha Williams as one of the survivors of the Massacre Incident 1985.
