Entering a very well protected area full of rooms with transparent doors showing people sleeping and others with empty eyes waiting for something.
Following the end of the corridor, turning a few times without stopping, we arrive in a room with black glass everywhere, but it is not possible to see who is inside. a table full of papers and photos in an empty, dimly lit room.
With only one door to be seen, the woman waits within minutes, three people appearing to be the escort of the one in front, with two of them with masks hiding their faces while making an escort to the first one.
Two of these people are in black clothes and one in white clothes, who is forced to sit in the chair in front of the woman who sees a look of fear in her eyes looking sideways in agony with something.
The two people move away and stand behind the person in white leaning against the walls in the almost dark room with a light on the table very weak, with their weapons ready for something.
The person in yellow looking at the woman looking at him watching as she takes the papers and speaks in a more serious tone moving her long black hair with her pen.
- You must be Brian, right? -
[Is it over there]
- If you came here, you know very well who I am, why I haven't been visited for many years.
[He]
- Answer the question! -
[Is it over there]
Seeing the woman bowing her head in a sign, the two people behind the yellow one, who together take the head and hit the table with a force of surprise.
- Answer me, you're Brian, aren't you? -
[Is it over there]
- Yes ... I'm Brian, why so much violence? -
[He]
Looking ahead with his nose bleeding a little after that, with his eyes full of anger thinking about revenge, making him paralyzed to tremble.
- You went to Okahan a few years ago, didn't you? -
[Is it over there]
Seeing Brian sitting in his chair looking scared after hearing those words, I respond with a tone of panic.
- Don't say that name ... He brings bad things with him ... -
[He]
Seeing again the two men take his head and hit the table, returning after that to their positions while Brian is dizzy raising his head listening:
- I don't want comments, I want answers. -
[Is it over there]
The woman looks at the papers without caring what they did to Brian, looks with her eyes without any emotion asking him again:
- You went to Okahan a few years ago, didn't you? -
[Is it over there]
Brian looking sideways without seeing any cameras looking is being seen by someone responds looking into the woman's eyes.
- Yes, I went to that city a few years ago and I don't like to say the name. -
[He]
- Can you tell me what happened in that city? -
[Is it over there]
- Why would I answer you, I have nothing more to lose ... -
[He]
The woman picks up one of the papers she is holding and throws it around for Brian to pick up, when she catches it looking out to be a photo, which leaves him unresponsive with his eyes full of tears forming.
- How did you get that? -
[He]
The smiling woman looking at other papers without looking at Brian at any time.
- I know many things about that city, but none of them explains how it got that way ... -
[Is it over there]
Throwing another photo on the table for Brian to see, who looks at him in total panic with that photo that reminds him of what he wanted to have forgotten.
Breathless and with all his hair standing on end, he looks to the side trying not to look afraid of something.
- Tell me Brian, what made you so afraid in that city? -
[Is it over there]
- I don't want to talk about it, let me go ... -
[He]
The two new men take their heads and do not hit the table but put it on the table making them feel a lot of pain because of the pressure placed on the hands of the two people.
With your eyes full of anger for them you are doing this, another role is thrown towards your eyes.
That even with difficulty to see you can see what is in that paper, getting scared again and trying not to look, begging to get it out of your sight.
The woman picks up the new paper and, gathering with the others at the table, knocks them in line with the help of the table in a calm tone.
- This picture made me not understand, how it happened in such a peaceful and beautiful city. -
- You were the only one who came back from her before that ... So tell me Brian, why were you the only one who came back from her and didn't look the same as those people in the pictures? -
Brian, panting and uncomfortable at those words, with his eyes closing, remembering everything as if it were yesterday, says the woman in a lifeless voice.
- I was not the only one to leave that city, and I know that he is waiting for me to leave here to take revenge ... -
[He]
- Answer me who this person is, and why does she want to take revenge on you? -
]Is it over there]
The two people release him from the table and raise his head showing an expression of emptiness in his eyes as he responds by looking directly into the woman's eyes.
- I don't know what it is exactly, but I know that after everything that happened he wants to take revenge on me ... -
The woman looks again at the two people to make Brian speak, but Brian without looking raises one of his hands up with the stop sign, which everyone does not understand hearing:
- You don't have to force me to say anymore, I'll tell you if you protect me from that ... -
The woman without understanding taps the table with one of her hands, already nervous by the tone of mystery, saying:
- We are not in a thriller or horror story ... -
- Tell me his name Brian or I will make you pay with more than a bleeding nose! -
With an empty look to lower his head and get some blood on the table, he begins to write the name of the person that the woman together with the two people looking at it are left without reaction.
- I don't know if it's the real name of this thing, but everyone in that city called it ... -
The unresponsive woman seeing Brian with his head down even after writing the name on the table in his blood, asks without understanding it still feeling like a shiver in his body when reading that name.
- Tell me exactly from the beginning everything you saw in that city, from the day you arrived with your parents ... And I promise to help you protect yourself from what you are so afraid of. -
Seeing him lift his face with tears streaming down his face with an expression of panic but a calm voice startling her.
- I have told this story several times and nobody believed it, why would you be different from these people? -
The woman feeling a bad feeling as if someone is looking at her with bad intentions, takes one of the papers she has and places it in front of Brian at the table with a look of confidence.
- If you tell this story again, with my help I will take you to the most protected city in the world to escape from what you are afraid of and maybe start a new life outside that place.
Seeing him smile and laugh with those words, still with those eyes of panic and tears falling on the table a little bloody with the name of the person still written.
- I know I'm not crazy [laughter], because I experienced what happened in that city in those days, which made a perfect city go to hell on earth. -
- But since you can help me, I'll tell you miss ...? -
The woman takes one of her cards and places it in front of Brian who takes it and looking at the card seeing the woman's photo, smiling looking slowly at the woman asks:
- Do you really want to know the story that made me stuck here after so many years ... -
- Everyone called me crazy for telling her, since I lived every minute of it and I still have marks all over my body and parts that I no longer have ... -
- You after all those warnings, who still know Miss Madison? -
Madison sees her card spinning around and stops in front of her with bloodstains looking slowly forward towards Brian responding by picking up his recording device and activating it with determined eyes.
- I want to know everything that happened in that city after you got there with your parents ... -
