The hivemind has given its command. We shall wield the CHAINSAW in our battle against demons, hallucinations and bad dreams.

I think that somewhere in you mind you can hear the glorious "vroom, vroom" sounds. Now we're ready for anything ! Or so we think... Let's find out what lies on the other side of the bridge.

Chapter XIII :

Here we are. Let's have a look at the map.

The Hospital is far down to the south, but I think we'll explore the rest of the area first. Let's head to the east-

What the hell is that ? It seems that we've found a new kind of monster. I believe it's time we tested that chainsaw...

That's it... let's slowly advance near and...

FUCK !!! IT SUDDENLY JUMPED ON US !!!

:furiously hits action button:


OW:

DIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Phew, it's finally dead. You've just witnessed the awesome power of the Chainsaw but also its disadvantage at not being able to hold back the monsters. The Rock Drill would have nailed that thing in its place.


Let's meet our new friend...

ROMPER :
A powerful apelike monster in Silent Hill that attacks with a body blow and pins down its victim. These monsters leap or "romp" around at high speeds while laughing dementedly. It's best to avoid them. If you decide to tackle them, strong ranged weapons are advised. As far as special melee weapons are concerned, the Rock Drill is your best bet.

So, if you want to use the Chainsaw you must try to surprise them from behind and run in a zig-zag to confuse them. Basically it takes finesse and luck to kill one of them unharmed. Let's see how good we are...

:sneaks up:

:quickly runs and attacks:

That went smoothly


Hmm ? It seems the battle brought us to the Silent Hill Police Station. Let's see if we can enter...

We can !

We replenish our ammo and search the offices...

There's something written on the chalk-board...

There is ?

Product only available in selected areas of Silent Hill

Raw material is White Claudia, a plant peculiar to the region.

Manufactured here ?

Dealer = manufacturer ?

Click to expand...

Hmm, the plot thickens. What's all this about a drug and does it have anything to do with the present situation ? We'll see. Let's search the desk :

Coroner Seals called.

Officer Gucci is unlikely to have been murdered.
He apparently died naturally.

But medical records show Officer Gucci has no
prior symptoms of heart disease...

Click to expand...

So officer Gucci, a healthy man, died of surprise heart attack. I wonder why...
We search the rest of the place but find nothing more. I guess it's time we left.

We run fast trying to evade any lurking monsters. We pass more crumbled roads and eventually we reach... an antique store ?

Since the door is open, we decide to explore further.

Hmm. Our exploration ends abruptly. Let's roam the streets once more.

Desolation and death await us at every turn...

A Deserted cafe along the way makes us feel even less welcome.

I think it's time we headed for the Hospital.

At last, the Alchemilla Hospital ! Maybe we'll finally find a place to rest and heal our wounds...

HOLY SHIT !!!!

The gun ! We must quickly switch weapons !

Not such a cozy place, after all. But what did you expect ?

Brushing aside our notions about rest we enter the building. Hmm, things look quiet enough...

:BANG:

A gunshot ?!


That can only mean one thing... We must investigate !

I think it was behind this door...

..

Someone's in here !

DAMN, it seems we've startled him !

The SOB shot us !!

Thankfully, he's a lousy shot.

Wait ! ...I'm not here to fight.

...?!

My name is Harry Mason. I'm in town on... vacation.

Thank God... Another human being.

I'm Dr. Michael Kaufmann. I work at this hospital.

So, maybe you can tell me what's going on ?

I really can't say. I was taking a nap in the staff room. When I woke up, it was like this.

Where are the rest of the people ?

I don't know. Everyone seems to have disappeared. And it's snowing out... this time of year !

Did you see those monsters ? Have you ever seen such aberrations ? Ever heard of such things ?

No.

Of course not. You and I both know, creatures like that don't exist... Yet here they are !

Huh-uh... Say, have you seen a little girl anywhere ? It's my daughter, she's only seven. Short, black hair.

She's missing ? I'm sorry. But with all these monsters around, I highly doubt that she's...

:angry stare:

Sorry... I didn't mean to alarm you.

She died four years ago. Now, it's just me and my daughter.

I see... I'm sorry. Well, I'd better get going. I can't just sit around here doing nothing.

Wait a sec-

Damn ! He left.

A doctor, huh ? Why didn't he disappear like the rest of the citizens ? Where the hell is going, in such a hurry ? Is Cheryl inside the Hospital ? How does this herb called "White Claudia" fit into all this ?



But more importantly : Is it time to end this Chapter ? I'm afraid it is. See you next time...

MORE DAMN TRIVIA said:

• 
  [*]The Streets in this part of town are also mostly named after horror/sci-fi novelists, only some of them are crappier than the ones in the 1st area.
  
  - Carl Sagan is the exception, since he was an American astronomer, astrophysicist, author, cosmologist, and highly successful popularizer of astronomy, astrophysics and other natural sciences. He pioneered exobiology and promoted the Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence.
  
  - Dean Koontz is a rather sub-par writer who is basically a poor imitation of Steven King. His only worth reading novel is probably "Phantoms" and it shares a lot of similarities with the Silent Hill setting.
  
  - Colin Henry Wilson is a prolific British writer who first came to prominence as a philosopher and novelist. Wilson has since written widely on true crime, mysticism, and other topics.
  
  - CRICHTON street is of course referring to Michael Crichton, another painfully mediocre writer. Hollywood loves to turn his books into movies.
  
  - Dan Simmons is an American author most widely known for his Hugo Award-winning science fiction series, known as the Hyperion Cantos, and for his Locus-winning Ilium/Olympos cycle.
  
  
  [*]The Alchemilla Hospital most likely takes its name from the real life genus of perennial plants, Alchemilla, also known as "Lady's Mantle". An Alchemilla is a plant in the Rosaceae family and is related to the word "Alchemy." The literal meaning of the word is "Little magical one".

The new ape-thing monster is meh. I guess is more dangerous than scary.

The hammer found on the basement is possibly the best melee weapon short of the rock drill. It works really well against the nurses too.
