Synopsis

Chapter 1 - The Morgue

Another silent day in Toby's work. No one likes his morgue as many rumours were said about this morgue. He was a security guard in that morgue, and it is 'his' as he is the only one working there. Many said that people entered there and never returned. Others said that their friends went at the night. When they went to them, they found their friends' bodies beside the dead ones they were sending to the morgue. Till that moment, no one knew the main reason for all that, except for Toby himself.

Toby didn't know that something was wrong with his morgue at first, but when he heard that the rumours in town were making the rounds, he got interested to know. He started counting the people entering and exiting. He saw that they really were decreasing in numbers and some people never appeared after entering. Some others ran away scared from the morgue. No, this thing is serious. Thought Toby

He thought of going inside, but he was smart. He entered in the day, as he knew that most the people that were lost stayed inside till night. When he entered, he saw that really some of the people that entered were kept as corpses. He knew many things, but knew more when he was trapped inside there by mistake. Everything was known, but the problem is that if he wanted to live, he shouldn't ever leave this morgue. This was his deal with the angry dead bodies...

Enough thinking of the past days, here is another sad one coming. Thought Toby when seeing a person coming holding a cart with him. Toby guessed this cart contained a corpse. The man didn't seem that he was one of the workers in this job, nor seemed from this country, which was Molaceber. No, he seemed so weird. He wasn't normal at all. Their is something strange about this dude. Thought Toby. The man was in a good wealthy way and was in extreme sadness. He also seemed not in the mood of looking or listening to anyone, but Toby wanted to warn him.

"Hey there. You should be aware that..." But he wasn't able to finish his sentence as the listener put his finger on Toby's mouth, indicating that he wanted silence. Toby didn't know what to do after that, but it was too late to think. The man has already entered the morgue. Toby didn't like this. It was horrible, but if he entered with the man, he might not be able to come back again. So Toby chose not to risk his life for anything; it was nearly sunset already.

It was so hard for Jack to answer Toby. Jack's beloved dad has been killed. He didn't want anyone with him except his father. He searched a lot to find that this morgue is the best to put his dad in until they finish investigation. He wanted to be totally alone, and most of the other morgues contained people.

So he entered the morgue and, seeing that Toby wanted an answer, he shut Toby's mouth with his hands and completed his way through the morgue. Jack could see that the dead bodies were a lot. As he knew about morgues, they should be emptied regularly from the dead bodies to leave places for other corpses. He also knew that the dead bodies should be covered or bathed for the smell and so, but all what he saw was dead bodies wearing torn clothes (strangely not torn at all in certain places) and smelling so bad. What the hell is with this morgue? Why the hell did I come here? Thought Jack.

No empty places yet. He kept searching for about half an hour. That morgue was really big and wide. It seems like a maze.

Its walls were painted pale yellow, and just in front of every wall stood many shelves of skulls. You could barely see the wall in the presence of these skulls. Jack also felt that there were more than only four normal walls. The reason I didn't talk about a door was that there wasn't anyone. A slight light was always there in all places. It always came from somewhere else. The shelves of dead bodies weren't put in a certain order; it was a total mess. The morgue was in total silence. Jack wasn't even able to hear his own footsteps or the continuous sound of the moving wheels of the cart.

After another 15 minutes of searching for a place and for the door to go out and look for another morgue, he at last found a place. It was a lonely place; no other place in the whole morgue was there except it. Jack felt relief when finding it. He held his father and put him in that place. It fitted perfectly in a strange way; no more no less. After he put his father, he took a handkerchief from his right pocket and used it to clean his hand, and took his phone to look at the time.

It was about 7:00 PM. Jack also realised that there was no signal at all. The phone wasn't even able to read the SIM card, but he didn't care much. He only cared that he had enough time to stay with his dad, alone.

For the next 2 hours, Jack kept crying and talking to his father and himself while sitting on the floor. Time to go now, it is about 9 o'clock. Thought Jack. Seeing the time in his phone said that it was 12 AM already. Wo wo wo, did I take all that time?! I need to go right now. Thought Jack. He stood and looked around. He could see that the slight light was still there, and everywhere. Still, sounds weren't there. He also realised something else: All the shelves were empty. He looked at his father's place just as he realised that. Seeing him there calmed him down. He realised that the floor was in a flood of blood, and sound returned again. This time, the first sound he heard is his footsteps on the blood. He looked in front of him to see that a dozen or so of dead bodies were standing just 10 metres away from him. He didn't gaze for long, but turned and started running.

Just as he did so, he tripped over something and fell on the ground on his face. It wasn't a big injury as he helped himself by his two hands and also the blood helped in decreasing the pain. Blood sprayed on his front body. He then turned to see what he tripped over. It seemed that his father's leg was that something. His father then stood in front of Jack, and behind him all the dead bodies. "YOU ARE THE REASON OF MY PRESENCE IN HERE!!!" said his father. Jack was out of words from what was happening to him.

"AAAAAAAAAARRRRGGGGHHH"

Jack's father was the first to jump on him, and the other dead bodies followed...

THIS, was the ONSET, of the great WAR that is going to happen in that Macabre Morgue!!!!.......
