#//one more thingy and then I'll warp them to reality

[purple-steven]

The everlasting silence was interrupted by several screams, layered over eachother in a choir of pain, all starting at different times. Lav is silently crying, clutching his chest, head on the floor, kneeling down. He keeps trying to breathe, he keeps trying to catch his breath, but it isn't working. It's hard to tell whether the screams are really loud or really quiet, but they feel overwhelming in numbers.

Has he forgotten how to breathe? Slowly forgetting everything? First he's forgetting his gem, now his breath?

Someone save him... Someone...

Why doesn't he... Remember the faces of people to save him?

He's forgetting everything because they aren't letting him out. But they're probably happy about that, aren't they? Whoever "they" are. They're wanting to keep him here, wanting to make him suffer-

And he doesn't lose count in his head, but he keeps losing memories, keeps losing who everyone is, and suddenly there's a feather in his hand and he knows it's important but he doesn't know who it belongs to.

He knows that it's important and he knows that it means everything to him but why?

And he still struggles to breathe and struggles to see, whenever he looks up there are notes, each painted with anger and joy that he's caged here again.

He can't stop crying and he can't stop trying to breathe but he doesn't make a single sound. How long until it'll be over?

Whoever Lav interacts with is suddenly put in danger by whatever situation Lav fears most.

It's felt... forced, recently. Lav doesn't go out as much as he used to. He's been getting worse and worse. Everything that got better just slowly crumbled in front of him. Andrew ruined everything. He got what he wanted, and it felt horrible. But... there's nothing to do but move on.

The only issue is that he can't. So many bad places in such a short span of time and he can't get his mind off of it. He hasn't even been using his journal nearly as much as he normally does in these scenarios. He wants to keep it to himself because it felt like too much. Too much to tell anyone, too much to handle.

Plus, he doesn't need the help at the moment. It's not like he deserved it anyways.

...He promised Crow it wasn't a case of "not deserving it", and he knows he does deserve help. Or, at the very least, people think he's deserving of it. But the more this goes on, the more he spirals, the worse it gets.

But he doesn't want to tell anyone. They're all going to grow tired of it. Grow weary. There'll be a point where they don't want to deal with you or your problems anymore. And - even if he hates to admit it - he doesn't even 100% know if he's safe. He doesn't know if they still care. He doesn't know if they want him here.

He knows this is because Ender keeps feeding him these insecurities. He knows it's because of his own stupid paranoia that he feels like this. But he can't stop it.

...that's enough talk about that. But he looked tired. Looked as if he's... been through a lot.

So nothing new, really.

He sat on a bench, just... hoping that today would be slightly more normal.

He's unaware of what's coming for him.

My Strange Library (Chapter 1)

My library is strange. I am the Librarian, and as such, I am in charge of all the odd things and happenings in this place. I sit in my little cove, reading an ancient book that bleeds black ink into my hands as I turn the pages. That's when I hear the tinkling of the bell at the door, and I raise my eyes to face the figure who walks into the library. She is around my age, with blonde hair and pale brown skin, her eyes like diamonds.

She walks into the main aisle of the library, the one containing non-fiction stories. I frown and stand up, walking over to the woman. She looks up at me, adjusting her jeans skirt and pink blouse.

"Can I help you?" I ask her, my tone polite and even.

"Yeah, uh .... I'm looking for a particular book. One thats kinda .... rare."

"Alright. Do you know what it's called?"

"Um, I think it's called The Empaeriym."

My heart skips a beat, my hands starting to sweat, making the ink that spilled on them flow once more. She does not seem to notice that, until a pool of ink falls to the floor, and swirls into the shadow beast that is behind me now. She gasps, horror etched on her face.

"What the fuck is that?" she asks shakily.

"Oh, this?" I ask, gesturing behind me to the creature. She just nods, mouth agape. "Don't mind her. She's a guardian of this place."

"Um, okay," she says, stretching the "o" in the word. She slowly turns back to the stacks, and sighs.  "I'm not sure what the book looks like."

"I know," I say. I turn, brushing past the shadow creature that towers over me. She follows me deeper into the library and the girl slowly trails after us. I pick up the book I'd been reading before, and turn back to the girl. The shadow creature snarls low in her throat, and the girl winces.

"Um, why is your shadow thingy here?" she asks me, her tone clearly nervous.

"She's just got my back, this is a dangerous book that cannot leave the walls of this library," I say.

"Oh, okay. Can I.... read some of it here?"

I nod.  "Yes, here, I'll take you to the reading area."

We walk into the area filled with couches, chairs, and tables here and there. I gesture to one table, within eyeshot of my own little reading cove by the desk. The girl sits down and starts to read the book. She's anxious, so I walk over to the desk and sit, letting the shadow watch her.

The sound of skittering draws my attention back up to reality, as I'd been reading yet again. The girl is gone, as is my shadow creature. Dread coiling like lead in my gut, I jump up and start to search for them. There's a clicking sound that's growing louder the closer I get to the stacks that hold our history books are.

I round the corner of the aisle, and freeze. The girl's not here. Neither is the shadow.  Instead, there's a small, chittering insect-like creature pulling itself from a book, which is on its back, open on the floor. The chittering creature has the appearance of a mix between a scorpion and a spider, and its chitinous body is black and shiny. It clicks and skitters away from me, racing down the aisle.

Swearing under my breath, I chase after the thing. But I do not get far. Because standing at the end of another aisle is a Spidermaiden. No, not a knockoff of Spider-Man. These things are much, much worse. Like a centaur, but with the body of a spider, and the torso of a woman. Her full breasts are covered in thick silk, but that's the only part of her covered. She makes a soft clicking sound to the insect, and it chitters, dancing in front of her.

Her long, black hair and equally black eyes seem to absorb the flourecent lights above us. Her spider body is massive and her eight legs tap as she steps forward, her attention finally landing on me.

"Oh, look at you," she croons in a warped voice. She steps closer to me, the insect following her. She tilts her head to the side and smirks, showing me her tiny fangs like needles in her mouth. "The Librarian all alone, struggling to keep us all under control. One curious mind is screwing everything up, isn't she?"

"What do you know about this?" I demand.

"No more than you, I'd guess," she answers, her eyes gleaming.  "But I'll say this. That girl who came in looking for The Empaeriym is not a human. A lot like you, she's also from a book. But the thing is .... which one is she from? Oh, the questions swirling in your head. Oh, how wonderful! This is getting very, very interesting."

I swallow hard.  I am from The Empaeriym, I just don't like to admit it. All Librarians are from a book in their collection. I am no exception. And because of that, I am not human, and so, I can do things that most people who walk into this Library can't. But if that girl is indeed from a book.... then why haven't I seen her before? Or heard of her? I've been the Librarian for 20 years, despite the fact that I look like I am only 22.  But that girl ....

The Spidermaiden clicks her tongue and shakes her head. The insect at her feet shrieks and charges at me. I jump to the side at the last second, and the insect crashes into a cart full of books. I swear under my breath again as I see three books fall and open, ink spilling onto the floor.

A wall of crows swarms around me, frantically flapping their black wings and cawing loudly. Then, a man appears. Beside him is two new creatures, beings from new books appear from the inky pools.  The one looks like a gray wolf, only the size of a horse. The other is a massive snake.

"One Librarian, against all of us," the Spidermaiden says, chuckling.  "You're done for, girl."

I glare at the man, who is also chuckling and grinning at me. He flicks his wrists, and a murder of crows bursts forth, flying right at me. They swarm me, pecking and clawing at my skin. I cry out, my inky blood spilling across my pale flesh, and onto my clothes.

The insect thing beside the Spidermaiden comes at me, stinging me in the back with its scorpion tail. I scream, my legs failing me as I collapse to the floor. The snake coils itself around me, and the wolf bares its sharp teeth as it glares at me.

The Spidermaiden and the Crow Killer (yes, that's the man's name) come over to me, both grinning. 

I cannot move. Im paralyzed.  And if I don't try to fight it, I will likely be the cause of death for countless poor, innocent humans.

"Good luck fighting the paralysis, girl," sneers the Crow Killer.

I can't speak. I can barely even breathe. I just stare as the Crow Killer dissolves into a murder of crows, and then he and his friend the Spidermaiden leave. And then, the venom from the sting kicks in full force, and I black out.

To be continued.....

Authors note: There is a chapter two, and I'm gonna try aiming for six chapters in this story. This is a Creepypasta story I'm writing. I have been posting this story on Wattpad under the story "Book of Nightmares" by me, Ravin_Raven! If you'd like to read chapter two, tell me please, and I will post it. But for now, this is just up as a taste of my horror works. I will post other stories, like poems, but this one in particular is up on Wattpad first. So follow me there if you enjoyed this one! It'd be much appreciated!

My Hero PSLE: S2E2 "I give up"

"What is it called when Elon Musk has a baby with a streetside trash can? Ur mom,"

-Eminem

"So like basically all you have to do is to go and find this guy who wants to rule the world and kill him. But he's like a super powerful god that is like the king of all the gods and can kill you easily so yeah,"

Wah lao eh. What king of all gods. Sibeh siao eh, Grandmaster, how to mati someone lidat?

"Aiya don worry lah, will be easy one, I'll come with you, ok? You just need to like last time, go and find a few sacred items and sacrifice them to the sun god or something idk,"

"Aiya please lah cher, I don't feel like doing this leh," Now they have to go find more sacred stuff again and go and fight more gods again bruh.

"I'll give you an A1 for all subjects and 10 months no school if you help me do this,"

"OH OK OK OK! YES CHER I'LL DO IT! Also cher, why can't youjust use your reality warping power huh? Like just kill the gods lidat,"

"Wdym, the gods are immune to my power ok?"

"Wait... then why are you even coming with us?"

-----------------

So they were at the first place they're supposed to go to-Jewel at Changi Airport. Well, at least it's not Bukit Timah again.

So they have to go and find the entrance like the last time again. And of course, like the last time, they just use their powers to find the entrance.

And then they found it! Yay!

Only that it's in the middle of the fucking waterfall thingy. No yay.

But what's even worse is that the entrance forbids using powers to enter. Super no yay.

So like first they have to jump onto the waterfall thing and then unscrew the lid thing and then jump in and try not to get instantly bombarded by the water.

Also the kaypoh angmoh tourist and the security guards would be chasing them so yeah.

So anyway they only managed to unscrew a bit before the security carch them liao.

Aiya kena sai. Alright time to use reality warping power-

"WAIT GRANDMASTER? OMG I KNOW YOU!"

"Ok everyone stand down these are my friends they can be excused,"

"This guy, Xiao Ming. Oh and take his friends out too if you can, I'll pay extra, ok I need to go, bye!"

"K fine, NEXT!"

"K I need this guy, Xiao Ming, out, and his friends too,"

"Wait this guy again? Oh I mean... yeah ok!"

"Ok next!"

"Ok, this guy, Xiao Ming, and his friends-"

"OMG what is up with everyone wanting to kill this guy? Bruh, I'm not killing him until I get an explanation myself!"
