"Setting out."

Tuesday, May 24, 2011, 11:35AM
                Oh my god I hardly slept last night. Couldn’t get my mind off of that guy with the gas mask. Looked up the triangle hourglass type thing to see if there was anything about it I could use to name this guy.

                Ok, so apparently Google doesn’t know what I’m talking about. So for now, until I can give him/her/it a good name, I’m going with The Hourglass.

                I hear someone singing, sounds like a nursery rhyme.

"If I die, before you wake
Don't you cry, don't you ache
Nothing's ever yours to keep
Close your eyes, go to sleep"

It’s joined by a rhythmic cawing, almost as if a murder of crows is singing along. I’ll have to check this out.

5/24/11, 1:23PM, Vocal Conversation between Daniel and Strange Boy.

            Daniel: Who are you?

            Boy: …..heheh.

Daniel: Uh…hello?

Boy: Do you like….games?

*Daniel takes a step backwards, towards the front door*

Daniel: Depends on the game, I guess..

Boy: I like fun games.

Daniel: What do you think of as fun?

Boy: Cold games.

Daniel: …………that breeze….it’s frigid….

Boy: Come play games with me!

*Strange Boy reaches for Daniel, his touch as chilled as ice*

*Daniel yanks his arm away, and lunges back, dashing towards the door*

*The door slams shut, sniffles are heard from the Strange Boy*

                Well that was different. If nothing else that tells me I need to get the hell out of here. Now.

                Aight, got all my shit straight. Laptop has a full charge, got food for the next couple weeks, some clothes, soda, that cap gun, my small scythe. It’s all packed, and I’ve had no disturbances from those…rake-handed mole things. Time for those years of playing NFSU2 to pay off.

                Hit up the Food Lion. Saw a swarm of them fucking corpses outside around the Hourglass. God I need a better name for him….

5/24/11, 6:02PM

                Saw some graffiti on the wall and it gave me the perfect name for Hourglass. I’ll write it in the journal.

5/24/11, 6:02PM Journal Entry

                “Archie comes for you.” [Two hourglasses side by side are drawn here.]

                “EMBRACETHEARCHANGEL”
        “Epping AquaTarkus, master of the seas.” .....what?

       “convocation? More like cawvocation lol”

              “^that joke was so bad, people laugh because they feel sorry”

       DAAAAMN! Bitch got told!
              “socoldpleasehelpme” Buddy? There’s this thing called spaces. Use them.

              “Harlyquin? Harluquin? How Do You Spell It?”

              “^ IT’S HARLEQUIN, FUCKASS.”

              “^ ChIlL oUt BrO :o)” This seems familiar....

                So, his name is apparently the Archangel. Meh, I like Archie better. Just gotta keep driving towards Kaitlynn's house and pray Archie doesn't 'embrace' me.

                Stopped at a house for the night. I’ll continue towards Kaitlynn’s house tomorrow.
