Black Hole

FINAL

“Perfect Mr. Axil, perfect.” Mr. Gin smiled crookedly, with satisfaction sparkling in his eyes.

“Sir…” I sent him a questioning gaze. “…I~I don’t think this is suppose to happen, th~this isn’t good.” I stammered, trying to wrap my head around the situation.

Mr. Gin looked over at me, annoyance etched into his voice. “I’m not paying you to be nosy.” He peered down at me, speaking to me as if I were a child who was butting into adult business. “I’m paying you to handle what I gave you. Everyone else who has failed and bailed out, can’t compare to what you two have accomplished, if anything you should be celebrating this greatest achievement!”

I stared at him, deep down I knew he was crazy and that something here just wasn’t right.

“Today… I’ll double your pay…” He said with a mischievous smirk and as I glanced into those cold eyes of his, I could tell he knew just what to say to shut me up, as if all this were a game to him. He made me both fear and respect him, which I later came to regret my decisions. “… All you have to do…” He continued. “…Is keep watch over the hole and keep me updated.” He swiveled on his heels and walked out of the room, leaving us lost in our thoughts.

Chelsea and I looked at one another, our expressions mirroring the other. We knew right then and there, we should have ran out of there like so many had before us, but a raise just sounded too good to let go. Shaking my head, I sighed and turned towards the hole. As I drew near, a light summer breeze gently stroked my hair and the smell of something so putrid stung the hairs of my noise, leaving me to gag. It was so much worse than six hours ago and I knew that this time it wasn’t from our office, but from the hole.

Upon further inspection, I could feel a rush of dread come over me, at the back of the black hole, a small amber light flickered. Trying to find a logical explanation, I walked to the other side of the window, but nothing was there. Quite Frankly, it looked like a normal window with no alterations and when I stared inside, I could see everything just fine. Whatever this hole was, I knew it wasn’t good and yet my curiosity drove me to continue and like an idiot, I did…

By the time the ninth day rolled around, the hole had cut through the floor and the ceiling. The light that had burned in the back, was almost as bright as the sun. It gave off, heat which was so intense, it had melted everything in the office, but what scared us the most was the screams, those heart wrenching screams!

OH GOD! THOSE… THOSE SCREAMS! IT’S ENOUGH TO MAKE ME WANT TO CUT MY OWN EARS OFF!

I fear I opened up a gateway that I shouldn’t have and I fear that the person I work for is someone I shouldn’t have been working for. I’m so sorry for what I’ve done!

Sadly, Chelsea quit after things started getting worse and on top of that, our stuff was being sucked into that blasphemous hole, at this point nothing can stop it now. Also oddly enough, when she quit, I never heard from her again. Just like all the others…
