Page 1 (Nightmare amusement park)
I arrive at the amusement park by going through the
sewers. In the amusement park, which has changed to the form
of the otherworld, several of the attractions run constantly as if they
were broken toys.
|
Page 2 (Merry-go-round entrance)
I pass by the Ferris wheel, and arrive at the
merry-go-round. However, only this attraction is not running.
Page 3
While it is only natural for a ride to not be in
operation, it seems unnatural for this merry-go-round to not be
running... I walk around it.
Page 4
Clink...Clink... (Onomatopoeia for walking sounds)
While slipping between the horses I look for Cybil. Quite a bit of time has passed since she came here.
Page 5
I suppose maybe she didn't find Cheryl and headed
back to that ship. But the only way to get here is through those
sewers. If she had gone back then we should have ran across
each other at some point.
Page 6
"Huh...what is this...?"
I slowly kneel down and try touching it. The dark green liquid is still warm. Something moved through here, and if this trail is
traced it will lead back to the source of the liquid.

「シビルの後姿」
Chapter 15 "Amusement Park"
Cybil, from behind |
Page 7 (Cybil in wheelchair)
And then...in the darkness I see Cybil from behind.
Page 8
"Cybil..."
I try calling out to her. Only the low sound of the motor of the Ferris wheel
echoes from afar. She should be able to hear me. I take another look at her.
|
Movie
Monster Cybil stands up from
the wheelchair
|
Page 9 (Black)
She slowly stood up from the wheelchair.
Page 10
Odd. I do not see the brave attitude that was present in
her just before. She walks as if something has drained the life out
of her, like she is wandering about for no reason. I approach her. And call out to her once more.
|
Page 11 (Cybil standing, black
background)
As I do this Cybil staggers as she slowly turns, and
confirms my presence.
Page 12
And then, as if I am watching her in slow motion she
raises her right arm until it is parallel with the ground and then a
bullet fires from the handgun she is holding.
|
Page 13 (Cybil with arm raised,
black background)
"Cybil, it's me. It's Harry!"
The bullet grazes my shoulder, and with a discordant
metallic sound it hits one of the wooden horses.
...She is coming towards me.
Page 14
Her eyes no longer appear to be human. The eerie red color of her eyes does not make it
look like her life-force has been drained, but instead, it makes it appear as if
she has been possessed by some evil being.
|
Page 15 (Close up of Monster Cybil)
I was too late, I think. Her heart had been devoured by someone, not by
Alessa. What is there is no longer Cybil. Just an alter-ego of Alessa that is using Cybil's
body...
|
第十五章 「遊園地」
「ペットボトル」
Chapter 15 "Amusement Park
Pet Bottle |
Page 16
At that time I remembered. I searched my pockets...got it. The pet bottle. The vermilion liquid is inside it. I scooped it up in the hospital.
Page 17
The red of Cybil's eyes looked a lot like the red of
that liquid. I hold up the pet bottle so that Cybil can see it
and shake it left and right.
Page 18
And then just for a moment her expression changed to
one of imploring... She must be aware. But she seems to be caught on an edge in her body,
her body that will not do her bidding.
Page 19
It is like she is being attracted to me... With her gun ready, Cybil approaches. Upon closer inspection I can see that her eyes are
full of tears.
Page 20
I unscrew the cap of the pet bottle. No one is riding the wooden horses, so their speed
increases. I think that it is like time is rapidly passing for
everything but the two of us.
Page 21
At the same time as the hammer falls in Cybil's gun
with a 'click' I sprinkle the liquid in the pet bottle on Cybil
without leaving a drop inside.
|
Page 22 (Black)
"Gu..."
Cybil tries to speak, and her face twists
agonizingly. At the same time white smoke rises from her entire
body, and gravity pulls her to the ground, face down.
Page 23
And then a creepy creature that is shaped like a
human organ burrows up out of Cybil's back and approaches my feet. I forcefully
crush it under my foot with all my might.
Page 24
........................
|
Page 25 (Cybil on ground) (Harry
appears)
"Cybil! Wake up! Snap out of it!"
Cybil doesn't respond.
"Cybil!"
........................
After a bit Cybil opened her eyes. Her eyes are a calm blue.
Page 26
"...Harry? ...What...happened?"
"Shh...Don't talk. I'll take care of you."
A look of relief appears on her face and then she
closes her eyes again.
Page 27
Once I am done binding her wound, I close my eyes as
well, and place my hand on Cybil's shoulder.
Page 28

Page 29 (Black)
(Harry... Why did they take your daughter? Why her?)
Page 30
(I'm not sure, myself. But, you know, Cheryl isn't my biological daughter.)
Page 31
(I actually haven't told her yet. She probably already knows anyway, though.)
Page 32
(We found her abandoned on the side of the highway. She was still a baby and nobody knew where she came
from.)
Page 33
(We didn't have any kids of our own. My wife was
sick, and it didn't look like she was getting any better. So we took Cheryl in.)
Page 34
(So in that case...)
Page 35
(There might be some connection between Cheryl and
this town.)
Page 36
(So what do you do now?)
Page 37
(Cheryl is my daughter. I will save her. No matter what.)
Page 38
I slowly open my eyes.

第十五章 「遊園地」 Amusement Park
「闇に浮かぶアレッサ」
Chapter 15 "Amusement Park"
Alessa appears in the darkness |
Page 39 (Alessa in nightmare
amusement park)
And then just as I had predicted, she appeared. Alessa. The girl that wrapped up this town and its residents
in her otherworld.
Page 40
That girl carefully formed her body from out of
light, and appeared right in front of me.
I begin to talk to that demon.
Page 41
"I figured you'd show. Hold it right there. I don't know who you are, what you're trying to do,
and I don't care. Just one thing. Let Cheryl go. That's all I ask."
Page 42
Before I finish speaking Alessa raises her right
hand toward the sky.
Page 43
And then she brings her arm down and my entire body
is blown backwards. My body tumbles across the ground like a rag for
about 30 meters, and then finally comes to a rest.
Page 44
"Damn!"
Such incredible power. A servant of god, a demon's power. A normal person like me has no chance against her. Power is gushing out of her body, and it emits a
pale light. I cannot even approach her.
|
Page 45 (Spinning Flauros)
"Huh? What is this?"
Suddenly a blinding light emits from my pocket. It is that four-sided object, the Flauros. Light shoots out in a straight line from each of the
points of its triangles, and it eventually rises up into the air.
Page 46
Just as I thought that the great light and sound it
was wrapped in meant that its power was greater than Alessa's, the power of
the Flauros condensed, became a beam of light, and pierced Alessa's body.
|
Page 47 (Nightmare amusement park
floor) (Alessa appears)
Just as I was just before, Alessa was blown
backwards by that power, which she could not overcome.
Page 48
"Where's Cheryl? Give me back my daughter." I was on the verge of passing out, and I thought of
Cheryl.
All I can do is calmly look at the unbelievable
sight before me as it unfolds before my eyes.
Page 49
What just happened? Is Cheryl okay?
However, she does not answer me. Instead, a hoarse voice passes into my thoughts, and
it is accompanied by the sound of footsteps.
|
Page 50 (Dahlia appears)
"We meet at last, Alessa."
"......!"
"Dahlia Gillespie......"
Page 51
Unable to move from my prone position I thought
about who's voice that was.
And then using all my strength I stand. After confirming that it was Dahlia in front of me I
spoke in a voice that was nearly a yell.
Page 52
"Where's Cheryl? Where is she?"
Page 53
Dahlia does not hear me yelling. She does not look back, and looks at Alessa with a
creepy smile.
Page 54
"Alessa. This is the end of your little game."
"Mama..."
Mother...? I am confused.
"Huh? Could she be...?"
Page 55
"You've been a ghastly little pest, haven't you?
Alessa? I was careless. Thinking you couldn't escape from
our spell.
Page 56
But Mommy didn't know how much you'd grown. That's why I couldn't catch you all by myself. But what a pity, yes? Now you're half indebted to this man for his help."
Page 57
"Hey! What are you talking about?"
My voice just echoes emptily in the darkness.
Go to 15-4

第十五章 「遊園地」
「シビルを撃つ」
Chapter 15 "Amusement Park"
Harry shoots Cybil |
Page 15
I ready my handgun and fire it at Cybil. I have no choice. If I do not fire then I will be
killed. If I die then I won't be able to save Cheryl or
anything.
Page 16
"Cybil..."
She should be my most dependable partner. The first person I met in town and a supporter. An irreplaceable friend that risked her life to help
me search for Cheryl.
Page 17
And now I am going to kill her in the name of
rescuing my daughter. However, I have no choice. I will be killed if I do nothing. I pull the trigger.
|
Page 18 (Red)
Each time I hit Cybil I feel like I am going to pass
out. And as Cybil collapses I become aware of my error.
|
Page 19 (Cybil, dead on the floor)
Cybil has become just an object. I rush over to Cybil and look at her. She is on her
back with her eyes wide open. I sink to the ground. Tears distort my vision.
Page 20
"Cybil...why... did this happen..."
At the moment I am about to touch Cybil her back
suddenly rises and begins squirming.
Page 21
A nasty liquid-like monster bursts out of Cybil's
lifeless back. It crawls on the floor, and begins to move at a
speed not unthinkable for its shape.
Page 22
Keeping only it in my sight, I pursue it. I am already exhausted, and maybe in no condition to
correctly judge things.

Go to 15-4

Page 1 (Harry's desk)
"All right..."
That is as far as my memory goes. Any thing beyond that is vague, and to give an
account of it I would have to make things up.
Page 2
However, I do not wish to include any fabrications
in this story, that is my true intention. In this case truth is stranger than fiction. But if I said that it was the truth then I doubt
anyone would believe me.
Page 3
I carefully read over the manuscript again. I could never even think about forgetting the
detestable events of seven years ago. Even now, my body quivers.
Page 4
And because of this when the request came in, at
first I considered refusing because the contents were too similar to the world
view. However, the person in charge pushed me into it.
Page 5
Perhaps it is an overstatement to call this a diary. It is not exactly my memoirs either. I just described those events within the range of my
personal tastes. There was no commercial greediness, and I never had
the ambition of having this story known by everyone.
Page 6
It is merely a world of self-satisfaction.

Chapter 15 "Home"
Cheryl pouts |
Page 7
After looking over the manuscript again I let out a
long sign, and neatly pushed the stack of papers together and placed them
in the envelope I had prepared.
Page 8
I licked the seal of the envelope and then tightly
sealed it. The act of properly sealing the envelope with such
feeling seemed like a certain kind of ceremony.
|
Page 9 (Cheryl in Harry's house)
"Daddy"
I turn around and Cheryl is standing there pouting.
"Ah, sorry. I have just finished. Sorry to have kept
you waiting."
Cheryl smiled, returned to her room downstairs, and
pulled several of her best outfits out of a wardrobe.
|
Page 10 (Black)
Tomorrow is the deadline. If I mail it tonight by express mail it should
arrive at the proofreader in time.
"I'll just be a little longer."
I said that to her in front of her room and then
placed my hand on the front door.
|
Page 11 (Telephone on desk)
Ziriririri... (Onomatopoeia for ringing phone)
The phone rings. Who is it?
Go to 15-7
|
Page 1 (Telephone on desk)
I reluctantly turn and run to the phone. At this hour the only person I could imagine calling
would be someone from the publishing company.
Page 2
"Hello..."
...........................
Page 3
The telephone is silent... Perhaps it's a prank call?
Page 4
"Hello? If you have nothing to say then I am going to hang
up. I have no interest in dealing with a prank call."
At the moment I was about to hang up the receiver
the unseen caller finally spoke.
Page 5
(......Hello......)
My hand holding the receiver trembles.
That voice is...!
Page 6
That voice is...... There is no doubt. The receiver fell to the floor, but I did not
notice.
|
Page 7 (Black)
Seven years ago... The town clouded with fog... The school stained with the smell of mildew... The empty teacher's room... On the table...
Page 8
The fragments of my memory come together in my head
like a jigsaw puzzle. There is no doubt, that...
|
Page 9 (Cheryl in chair)
I rush up the stairs.
"Cheryl...!"
Cheryl had completed getting ready, and was sitting
quietly on a three-legged wooden chair.
Page 10
"What's wrong? Daddy?"
"I'm sorry...but something urgent has come up. It doesn't look like we will be able to go to the
amusement park. I will have to leave you here alone, but...will you
be ok?"
Page 11
The expression that I expected appeared on Cheryl's
face.
"Hey, you promised!"
"I'm sorry... I have to go right away..."
Page 12
Suddenly a different memory rose up in my mind.
|
Page 13 (Black)
The town with a lake... The pier in the darkness... The lighthouse at its end...
Page 14
The man who saved me... And then... Definitely next to...
|
Page 15 (Cheryl in chair)
"Cheryl, I've changed my mind, why don't you come
with me?"
"Where to?"
Page 16
This time I spoke with confidence.
"Silent Hill... Yes, the lighthouse in Silent Hill. We're going to help someone that is in trouble
there."
|
Page 17 (Black)
I took my amazed daughter's hand in mine and we
bolted out of the house.
