Me and Jasper walked down the hallway leaving Liam and Rosa alone. We stepped over debris and we made our way searching for the fire alarm, I looked over at Jasper, he seemed distracted. “So it was somewhere we passed?” “Uh yeah Rosa said it was down somewhere.” I patted Jasper's shoulder, “You okay man, I know this is strange, but we got this!” I gave Jasper my best smile, “I guess Sam, it’s just I'm worried about Rosa will she be okay?” “Hey man she got Liam, it should be fine, but if you’re still feeling nervous, what about treating it as a video game?” Jasper glared at me, “It's not game Sam, this is real life!” “Hey man chill, just tryna cheer you up.” Jasper sighs, and holds onto the railing, “I'm sorry for how I'm acting, all this is just too much for me.” I let out a laugh, “It’s fine man, look we’re almost there!” Jasper smiled, “I guess you’re right!” We walked down the stairs as the building started to rumble, both me and Jasper managed to hold onto the railing without falling down the stairs, “Woah what was that?” Jasper shrugged. I don't know, but I hope Rosa is okay.” I laugh, “I bet they both are perfectly fine, probably already in the principal's office just waiting for us.” We waited in place as the shaking slowly began to stop, then continued down the stairs, “Woah Jasper do you see that?” “Yeah, is that a woman.?” Jasper shouts, “Hello are you okay?” The woman is faced the other way, seems like she didn't hear Jasper, long black hair reaches to her hips, she seems to be wearing a tight fitted orange button down with a long gray skirt. We slowly make our way towards her, I look over at Jasper, he shakes his head, I guess it's up to me, “Hey I know you might be scared, but we are all human, you could come with us we’re trying to hit the fire alarm so help can come, after that we are planning on leaving the school.” The women slowly turn around, “I would love to come, I'm so scared I can’t find anybody else!”

She seemed normal enough, but something was off about her face. I squinted and noticed four thin cuts, one on her forehead, on her cheeks and the last on her chin. Jasper slowly backs up, the woman seems to notice, “What's wrong you don’t like my face?” Jasper stutters, “No its- its just that-'' The woman cut jasper off, “You think im ugly?” I shake my head “What, no!” The womans face starts to open up, you can see the meat and blood begins to drip, her jaw unhooks opening her mouth wider, green gas started to leak from her mouth, She lunges out and grabs me, I try to whack her bat, but miss when another arm starts to grow from back, it grabs my head and hold it towards her gaping mouth where the the green gas leaks, I lose my grip on the bat dropping it as I try to pull away, Jasper lunges towards the bat grabs it and is able to hit the lady's arm thats controlling my head, I gasp and cough, another arm sprouts out from her back they lunge for jasper grabbing his wrist, “Get off of me and my friend!” Jasper is able to pull away, While the lady is distracted with Jasper I am able to get my arms free, I am able to peel her hands off of me pushing her away and fall to the ground coughing, “Shit, I inhaled too much gas!” I start to try and get up, but the lady grabs my ankle, feeling weak from the gas im able to kick away, she starts to try and climb on me, when jasper is able to hit her in the head, dizzying her, Jasper leans forward and pulls me from under the lady, “You okay Sam?” I cough and spin around to look at the lady, “I don’t know, Bro I don't know what that damn gas is gonna do to me!” I notice the lady is getting ready to jump,”Jasper duck!” I grab jasper we fall to the ground, The lady Jumps and two more arms sprout out of her back, she misses them and hits the hard floor, Jasper tries to get up and swing at the lady, but trips over himself, Sam tries to get up, but when I turn my head I notice the woman's face close to mine, “Oh shit!” I tumble back on the floor, I look back up and she's gone in the same position on the floor as she was before, “What the hell?” I rub my eyes, and get up, Jasper tries to get up, but the lady lunges over Jasper towards me, “What the hell, why is she after me!” I try to dodge, but she grabs me, I scream, “Get off of me!” I am able to push her off, but not before she gives me another spray of her green gas. Jasper tries to hit her, but her arms reach out and grab the bat from him. Jasper Looks around, but can’t find anything to use as a weapon. I hear a noise behind me, I turn around, but there's nothing there, I turn around and the woman is running at me with the bat and swings, knocking me down she throws the bat and jumps on top of me, her face began to close in, I start pushing at her face with my hands, “How the hell is the gas not filling the room!” her arms grab my hands and hold me down, her other arms start to hold my body down, she leans in mushing her face into mine, her tongue started to grow out of her mouth, making to tongue hands that start to grab and my mouth opening it wide, She leans in and more gas begins to enter my body, Two more arms sprout out and lunge at Jasper grabbing him holding him in place, “Let go of me and my friend!” Jasper starts to kick around. The lady slowly begins to sprout another tongue, holes slowly begin to open up, and green gas slowly starts to come out, the tongue slowly makes its way to my mouth when, she turns her head and notices Jasper has the bat in his hand, He begins to hit her, the arms let go of Jasper, The lady quickly shoves the gassy tongue onto mine, her tongue starts to tie around mine hooking in place, I start to look around fuzzy figures surround me, shouting fear, I try to move my head and able to look over to see jasper running at the lady getting ready to swing, but a bunch of hands punch him and he goes flying, The lady looks at me smiles and starts to pet my head, more arms sprout from her torso, they begin to lift me into the air, her tongues all grow long and sprout little hooks that sink into my tongue and skin holding in place, The fuzzy figures start to grow big, they all slowly open their mouths, their teeth dig into my flesh, but I can't feel the pain. Jasper gets up and looks over at me, but he just sees the lady lifting me up. 

 Jasper looks for something sharp, but can’t find anything. Jasper runs towards the lady and swings at her neck, hitting her then he reels it back and strike at her skull, the hits seem not to effect the lady as her full focus is on me, Jasper looks around and spots a piece of glass on the floor, he tries to drive it into back but nothing happens, she doesn't flinch, she seems to focus on me as I start seeing heads flying around me, they lunge at my limbs and start to naw on them, I try to scream, but the more I open my mouth, the more tongues sprout little hands and keep my mouth open, some start to crawl towards my ears, but I shake them off. Some start to make its way to my nose, but i'm able to shake them off, more arms grab onto me, they slam me into the wall, more arms hold onto my head, holding me still, a long sharp black oozing spike comes crawling out of its mouth making its way towards my ear, slowly burrowing into my ear leaving black ooze behind as it leaks out of my ear, I scream as another tiny bubbly green gassy figure slowly makes it way out of the lady's mouth, Jasper runs and swings at the lady’s head, but misses and instead hits her tongue, the green bubbly gassy blob falls off the tongue screaming as it slowly melts away. Jasper starts to swing at the tongues, the lady screeches as she falls back, her arms drop me and fly to her tongue to protect it, the tongue holds its grip in my mouth, I can feel the stabbing in my ear as it gets farther away from my ears opening. I hear a little voice whispering to me, sounds like mine, but more soft spoken, “You should bite down on the tongue and swallow it.” I look around, but it's just the heads, the fuzzy figures, the lady and Jasper, “Hello?” I gagged. It spoke out again, “Hey, why don't we bite down, It will hurt her and she will let go, your friend needs you, needs us!” My eyes flicker around the room as the figures and heads disappear. I try to tune out the voice, as Jasper hits the lady again, The lady screams out in pain, Her tongue slowly tries to crawl down my throat for protection but I don't let it, I try to shake my head as the arms all lunge at me, she dodges Jaspers swing again and jumps onto of me, she grows more arms and uses them as a shield, surrounding me and the lady, Jasper runs towards the arm shield and starts to swing, he bounces off, he runs and starts banging on the arms, “Sam, can you hear me!” Hands go onto my ears, dimming Jasper's screams, hands reach on my eyes blocking my view, my soft voice spoke to me, “Just open up, we can fight back if we let her in, we can win!” I try and fight her off, I can feel her pet my head, more hands fly towards my mouth gentle opening them, the rest of her free arms slowly bring me closer to her face, as more tongue and green gas fill my mouth, my voice speaks to me, “Hey there's no point in struggling, why don’t you accept me, accept us! We are the same people after all, accept this love, accept us! We can help you, I can help you! Just accept and the pain will go away, nothing will happen to you, we can kill her, and save yourself and Jasper!” I slowly stop struggling, the woman hinges her jaw back in place and kisses me, I try move my face, but the lady removes her hands from my eyes, and she's not there anymore, only my ex-girlfriend Cindy, She closes in on my face, “I'm sorry I broke it off, I didn’t mean it, I miss you.” She leans in and smooches my face, I accept it.

I can hear my voice, “Thank you for accepting us, the tongues slowly make its way down my throat, even more gas filling out my enter body, my mouth moves on its own biting down on her tongue, black ink leaks from the tongue making its way inside my mouth, the tongue slowly detaches from where I bit down from, It slowly splits in half, parts of the tongue started to grow spikes and chop away at the skin of my gums, inserting itself inside and covering up the wound with its own flesh fusing together inside my skin. It moves all around my mouth, while the other half splits again, one half ties around my tongue fusing together, while the other half squeezes out of our mouths, while we kissed, it grew tiny arms and crawled its way towards my nose, it split into four equal parts, two went inside my nostrils as they made their way towards my brain, I started to try and get off feeling stuff crawling on me but she threw me to the ground, slowly one half went towards my eyeball ripping it out and taking its place, forming into a identical eye. I try to scream but nothing comes out, the lady releases me, I speak, but it's not me who's talking, but it sounds just like me, my mouth begins to move on its own, “Jasper, im okay throw the bat over the wall of hands!” Jasper shouts, “Are you sure?” the words come out of my mouth but aren't mine, I try to scream, but nothing comes out, my face turns into a smile, “Yeah it's fine, I got her pinned down!” Jasper shouts back, “Okay, I trust you!” Jasper throws the bat over the wall of arms, it lands in my hands, but I give it to the lady, I try to run, but I have no control of my body, as the last bit of tongue crawls inside my other ear, disappearing. I scream in agony as I get a massive headache, I fall to the ground, I try to move my body, but it won't listen, I can feel my body stand back up and I begin to open my arms wide, the arms began to disengage from the lady and fuse in my body, the arm wall starts to become mine, as the lady hands me the bat, my body begins to move on its own as it begins to strike the lady down, I stop and turn towards Jaspers voice, “You got this Sam!” I force one of the hands of the wall, It flies at Jasper and drags him towards the end of the hall, it throws him and he goes flying down the stairs, The lady smiles a kisses my neck, she gets on her knees and turns towards me smiling, I pull the bat up smiling as it crashes down into her skull, I hear a large crack, she falls to the floor, The other me speaks up, “good job, you defeated the monster you have leveled up! My face starts to smile as the limbs slowly retract inside my body, making sure it doesn't rip my clothing. I look back down as her scalp starts to rip apart as one last arm crawls out bloody, pieces of flesh slide off the arm as it made its way towards me, I wanted to run, but my body just knelt down and slowly grabbed the arm, the arm crawls towards my shoulder, it crawls into my shirt fusing into my chest, slowly the fused arm melted into a lump of flesh, slowly traveling to the back of my head. The flesh mounted its place and slowly crept around the side of my skull leaking into my brain, I scream as I feel the flesh fusing with my brain, I slowly go numb as my body begins to move on its own, as if a switch is flipped, my mind slowly goes into a deep sleep.
