ちっぽけな小説を作ってみた。２

世はオンライン授業がまだまだ実施されている。

自分も先程ちっぽけな英語のオンライン授業を受けてきた。

コロケーションで英語を学ぶ、という単元だった。

練習としてホラー話を作ってこい、だそうだ。

宿題のモチベ維持も兼ねてここて宿題させてもらう。

ちなみに英語のレベルはポンコツなので修正前の草稿ままだ。

”Defected”

One Summer, three college students decided to test their courage at an abandoned factory. 

It was carried out in the humid creepy night. Opening a door of the entrance slightly, one of them cautiously peeped inside of the building. What he identify was only a dusty carpeted hallway. There was no furniture, lights, and other signs that people recently used the building.

"Okay... maybe."  

"Let's go, let's go!"

They turned on each light on their phones and passed in the building.

The inside was dark and quite dusty. 

”What about opening that door?”

"Yeah, I'm somehow curious about that room, too."

There was a blue door. They wondered why the door was maintained to be clean though other doors and the hallway completely ruined. They headed to the front of a door. 

Nobody wanted to confirm the inside in their mind but they pretend to be composed to open the door. 

As soon as one student reached his hand to the knob, they teleported a ruined laboratory in an instant. There was the dim light of candles.

"What's happened to us!?" They got into panic.

"Join us."

Suddenly, they heard child's weak voice from behind of them.

A pale-faced little boy stood at the corner of the room. The voice had no emotion. He was holding a baby but the baby's face was hidden with ragged baby wrapper. The two children shabbily dressed in a classic style of clothes as if they were in past time. 

Students screamed hysterically. They wanted to run away but there was no door in the room. One student noticed that a note was put on the back of the baby. It said, "DEFECTED". 

"What do you mean by that! Who are they! I can't understand! Help! Help!!"  

Even if they try to escape from two children, they couldn't go out of the room. 

"Join us." 

The boy's face didn't change.

One student attacked to children unconsciously. His hand took the baby wrapper from the baby a little bit then the baby's little right hand appeared from the cloth. The hand were inked with black and the skin looked like leather.

The baby reached his inked hand to the wall and started to write down something

"WANT FACES."

When baby turned his head for students, students were frighten by his appearance because his face was covered with leather skin, no eyes, no nose, no mouth.
