  1. That Day, the saucers landed. Hundreds of them, golden, Silent, coming down from the sky like great snowflakes, And the people of Earth stood and stared as they descended, Waiting, dry-mouthed, to find out what waited inside for us And none of us knowing if we would be here tomorrow But you didn’t notice because i wasn’t there. I heard this story through the phone…when my mom and I was talking. I haven’t heard from her since that day. I have moved from place to place everyday for the last two years to hide and survive. The earth i knew is almost gone. People around the world tried to fight back, but did not make it. I am all alone. Everyone in my life is gone missing and everyday I try to ignore my toughts of them. It was hard at first but now I just don’t feel anything. The electricity is gone and i have to find warm places and clean water to have good energy. It’s hard to live like this, always scared and always running from something. They are everywhere…

  3. I’ve been waiting for you. As far as I can remember. You left me all alone here, all alone in the dark, you left me alone with my thoughts. It scares me. My own thoughts, they scare me and I don’t know how to handle it. This isn’t the first time you’ve broken a promise. You always break your promises and it hurts me. I never thought you would be the one to hurt me, out of all people. You. But it isn’t always the promises you break, you’ve always sworn you’d be there for me but were you? No. You never have.
    You out of all people, you.

  4. English 6 The Hotel

    In my restless dreams, I see that town… Silent Hill. You promised you’d take me there again someday… but you never did. Well, I’m alone there now, in our special place… waiting for you.
    The other day I was walking down the street in my own world, and out of nowhere a car drove into me and seconds later I was in the hospital, next to my bed was my best friend and she looked stressed and seconds later she was gone.
    When I woke up the doctors told me that it’s been a weird break out of some sort and I needed to get as fast as possible to a checkpoint in Silent Hill.
    So later that day me and some more patients got on to a helicopter, we took of and were on our way to Silent Hill.
    Six hours later. We were just outside the checkpoint, but something felt wrong, no lights were on no signs of human activity, or no signs of any sort of activity.
    I overheard the pilots talking about if they should land or not. After some time, they took the decision to land.
    Just as we landed an old man in a uniform gestured with his arms coming up in a crossing motion again and again and mouthing the word “stop” making us realize that we needed to turn off the engine immediately, and so we did.
    He told us to get inside fast. So, we ran as quickly and quietly as possible. Later inside they told us that they been attacked.
    -Attacked by who? I asked.
    -The Walkers. He said.
    –What’s a walker?
    -A walker is a human that got infected by the virus and act crazy. They start screaming and attacks everything in their way over red and white lights.
    I felt better later that evening but I’m worried. I was thinking about my friends, my family and my best friend that joined the army.
    It was 20:36, and I heard an alarm and I saw a lot of people running. I stopped one person and asked what happened.
    -We are under attack again!
    I started panicking and I ran to the kitchen and I slipped on a towel and hit my head on the sink.
    I woke up minutes later and I heard a crawling noise and it was getting closer and closer to me.
    It was my best friend and she looked like one of the walkers, full of scars and blood, ripped clothing, she was a walker and she was about to bite me.
    I couldn’t move. She was just about to bite me, and she stopped and said IT’S JUST A PRANK BRO I promised you to take you to Silent Hill one day!!!!

  5. In my restless dreams, I see that town… Silent Hill. You promised you’d take me there again someday… but you never did. Well, I’m alone there now, in our special place… waiting for you.
    I woke up in a cold sweat, this was the third night in a row. I looked at the clock to the left of me, almost 3 am. I tried to retrace the dream as I walked to get a glass of water, but all I could remember was the big, spooky-looking hotel. And those words, of course, what did they mean? I sighed as I sat back down in bed, I felt restless. Silent hill… is that an actual place? I took my smartphone off the charger and googled it. Nothing of importance came up. I made a silly tweet about my nightmare, and tried to go back to bed.

    As I closed my eyes I received a direct message by what seemed to be a bot. I shook my head slightly as I opened it, it started off with a semi-long text which was informing the user on how they could make easy money. I thought about the poor, old people who’ve received this, they probably didn’t understand that it was a fraud. As I was about to close the message, the link caught my eye. My heart jumped. Two words stood out in the long link, “Silent Hill.” I couldn’t stop myself from clicking it. As the page was loading I prayed that it wasn’t a virus. The page was completely empty except from what seemed like an address. My first thought was of course that there is somebody messing with me. I copied the address and pasted it into google, a little cabin came up. I looked at the pictures of the cabin, it seemed to be located at the bottom of a… hill.

    I almost flew up from my chair and ran to my car. The hour-long drive went surprisingly fast and I was there in what felt like minutes. I left my car and started walking up the hill. No, I ran. As I reached the top of the hill, I was surprisingly still full of energy. My first thought was that it was very quiet up here. It really was… dead calm, it was a silent hill.

    But you didn’t notice because I was busy talking with a friend but when I noticed you I ran home and wrote you, but still not calling I left my cell, paper and my home phone at the bottom. I sent you two letter back in autumn, you must not’ve got èm there probably was a problem at the post office or something, sometimes I scribble addresses too sloppy when I Jot’em, but anyways, fuck it, what’s been up, man? How’s your daughter? My girlfriend is pregnant too, I’m about to be a father if I have a dotter, what I’m going to call her? ‘I’m going to call her bonnie.

  7. In my restless dreams, I see that town… Silent Hill. You promised you’d take me there again some day… but you never did. Well, I’m alone there now, in our special place… waiting for you.

    I sat down against the time-worn old building, that once upon a time was a Bed and breakfast but had transformed into an coulisse in a ghost town. The window frames, that once were perfectly painted bone white was torn, rotten and the windows were dusty and smashed in pieces. The entry that had a beautiful, handmade sign was dilapidated and the door kept slamming into the ceiling. The sight of the building, that once were so graceful made me shudder and I turned my head.
    I looked over to the pair of benches that stood right on the lawn facing the outside of the town. In front of me I saw the two of us, sitting next to each other, daydreaming and fantysizing. I shook my head and caught myself smiling by the memory of our old times and I could not keep away from wondering what happened to you. My thought flew away when a noise hit my ears, it was the leaves rustling by the streetcorner.
    Someone was walking towards me, I could not see who or what it was since a dark, long coat was covering the face and body. Walking slow, with one leg dragging behind, the figure came closer and I stood frozen. As far as I knew there had not been anyone in the town for years, but maybe that was wrong…

    I went back but nothing is the same, the house and the street is destroyed. My dear, last time when we were here together and you promised med to take me here again, we were sitting in the park, the park is not here now. I see just blood in the street. There is no people here, no animals neither. I walked in into our house silently and looked carefully from the roof to the floor. Everything was changed. The house seems like there has been a war here. But who won? Nothing is left here. there is even blood in the toilet. I just want to escape from that place. I’m scared now. Then I stared walking lightly.’
    Suddenly, I see some awful person behind me. He runs after me. I run as fast as I can and he ran after me. Finally, could not run anymore. This was it. Come for me, please. God. No.

    I’m feeling sadness because of you. It comes thousands of thoughts why you are no here yet. I only hope that it’s not because you have forgot, and you are maybe in a bar drinking with your friends. Father… when do you come not let me call my mum to pick me up. I am wondering why you don’t answer when I’m calling you.
    Okey… one hour has passed, one hour of waiting. I will call my mum to drive me back home. I thought that he should remember to keep his promise because of the reason that today is my birthday of ten years. I see my mum’s car coming to me, and because of some reason I start cry harder and harder when the car comes closer to me.

    But you didn’t notice because it felt like the whole picture just froze. No one moved or even blinked. Just completely still for couple of minutes. One of the saucers was bigger and in a different colour — shiny and golden. That saucer landed, and suddenly! A 7 feet tall creature obviously not from the earth came out and started to levitate and rose to the sky so everyone could see It.
    What I saw was just a flash in my eyes and when I opened them I saw him glowing. Like a star and those words came out from his mouth “We didn’t come here to invade your primitive planet, we came here to test you. We have been observing planet “Earth” for thousands of years, since the dinosaurs age and of course the ice age. It is all our work we have done everything you would assume god did. We are the smartest in the whole solar system we control everything and everyone, and your primitive language called English is a joke. We speak in every language ever existed we are the creators of everything. Bend your knees in front of me or you’re going to die. Your planet can get destroyed just by the presssssssSsing of one button, so I suggest listen to me and get down in front of your real god. I’m the greatest and the only one, true creator that ever existed, and – my name is Xeran”.

  12. In my restless dreams, I see that town silent hill. You promised you’d take me there again someday… but you never did. Well I’m alone there now, in our special place… waiting for you. I’m standing there waiting for you and hours go by. As time goes by, I start to lose hope. I walk slowly and drag my feet through the dirty road. Thinking you might show up if I walk slow. Suddenly I hear a noise behind me I look back fast. There you are. I run to hug you but as I hug you. You fade like a ghost and I wake up from my dream.
