Riley awoke with a major headache, her head pounding to the beat of her heart. She looked around her and then looked at herself. "Huh?! What the-?" she was chained to a metal table and she struggled against them, but failed every time.
"Well, well, well, looks like little Riley is awake now," someone's disembodied voice says sweetly and laughs.
"Wh-who's there?! Show yourself!" Riley says, she meant to yell the words, but they came out more like whisper instead. She felt like she was trying to talk through a pipe in her chest instead of her own mouth.
"You don't remember me Riley? Well that's not good," whoever it was sounded disappointed and sighed. "Though I might as well show you what I look like right now," the person talking chuckled, "But that's no fun now is it?" Riley could hear the smile in the person's voice as they came a little closer to the metal table she was chained to.
"Let me go!" her voice sounded hoarse and she started coughing but that just made her throat hurt more and she squeezed her eyes shut against the pain in her throat.
Finally, the person who was talking stepped beside her and she opened her eyes slightly, looking at them. Her eyes widened in shock when she saw the ghost standing above her. When she realized who it was she was looking at, tears started to spill from her eyes to the table under her.
"Do you remember me now, Riley?" Alejandro asked, cupping her face with his hands.
"I'm sorry Al, I'm so sorry," she cried, her words a mere whisper as she spoke.
"It's alright, I'm fine now. Even though I'm dead and having a hard time not being able to leave these warehouses to see my family. Oh well," Alejandro lets go of her face and stands up straight.
Alejandro walks over to a table with clean, sharp knives. He picks one up and slides a finger on the blade of the knife. "I hope Jake and the others don't mind if you have a few scratches on you." He laughs and turns around and walks towards Riley.
"What are you doing, Al?" Her eyes widen in fear and she cries, "No! No Al please don't do this, please!"
"Sorry, but I have to. I want you to be like Rosie."
"No! No, please, no!" She screams out in pain as Alejandro runs the knife against her arm, her blood runs from the cut on her arm on to the table underneath her.
Alejandro laughs sadistically and licks her blood off the blade of the knife. "It's time for you to. Go. To. Sleep. Riley." He hits her head hard enough to knock her out and he puts the knife back on to the table with the other knives then walks out of the warehouse without looking back.
