[8:00p.m.]
And there I was, driving to Papulince Landia, a very famous park in the country. I was almost there when I realized that I was going to work in a park at night and receive a minimum wage payment for it. I spent a few hours on the road but I finally arrived and surprisingly it was still open, meaning that my shift had not started yet. I went in to see the place so I wouldn’t get lost at night (since the park was very big), it was at that moment that a man approached me (it was noticeable that he had not slept much).
-Hi, are you the new guard?
- Yes, I am
- Ohh perfect, welcome to Papulince Landia. I'm going to guide you so you don't get lost
At that moment all I thought about was the word "Perfect".
I accompanied the man, first, he took me to a food place. Everything was typical. Then he took me to the stage, where there were 3 characters: Papulince man who was the park's mascot, kevaxx who was the singer (I don't like the way he sings), and the last one Rey Pichula who was a worm waiter (I have no idea how he manages to move). It was hard to miss the place due to how large it was. Later on he took me to the pool area, he showed it to me from the outside since it was not possible to enter. According to him, it was out of service. Why? I don't know. Finally, he took me backstage. The place was small, you could see the spare parts of the costumes. It was already getting dark and the man said he was going to call me when I started my shift. He left, it seemed that he was in a hurry. While my shift began i ate a PapuSandwich.
[10:00p.m]
I went to my office, I stayed there for about 10 minutes waiting for the man to call me when I realized that I did not even knew what the name of my boss was.
*Phone rings*
The sound was horrible, it sounded like an alarm clock, I had to answer.
-Hello, It's me, Miguel.
-Hello? you are the one who showed me the place, right?
-Yes yes, I forgot to tell you my nam namee..
-Right.
-Well, now I have to get some legal things done.
He began to speak. The truth is I was not paying attention to anything at all, but one thing he said caught my attention. He mentioned that PapulinceCompany was not responsible for personal injuries or disappearances.
-Did you understand everything?
-Yes, yes.
- Well, you already know everything you have to know to survive.
- What do you mean?
-He laughs. Nothing, forget it.
-But...
-Later I'm going to call you to see how you're doing (hangs up the phone)
[11:45 p.m]
The shift started off normally. I noticed that there was a tablet with cameras, a flashlight, and chips. I thought about falling asleep but the camera warned me of a movement. I checked the camera and I didn't see anything, so I fell asleep.
[1:00 a.m]
*Phone rings*
-Hello
-...
-Hello
-....
-Hey?!
-Hello, hello
- You weren't asleep, right?
-No, I was in the bathroom
-...
-Do you not believe me?
-I don't care, if something happens to you it's your fault.
-Well..
-Everything is where it should be, right?
-Of course, of course
While my boss was talking, I looked at the cameras but King Pichula was not on stage, at that moment I was stunned. Maybe someone stole it.
-... And that's why you always have to keep an eye on them
- Wait! Can you repeat it?
* Miguel hangs up *
I had no clue as to what Miguel had said, but it was not the time to worry about that. I HAVE to find that worm.
I left the office, and everything was very dark. I asked myself why they didn't put on lights or something, isn’t it weird? I had to go through the food area. To be honest, I thought I had seen something similar to a raccoon but I didn't pay attention to it. The most important thing was to find the worm, so I focused on that.
While I was looking for it I remembered that I had left the tablet in the office so I returned. With the tablet, I could see the cameras of the story while I was looking for Rey Pichula. I ran back, I got the tablet and noticed that the bag of chips I bought earlier was not there anymore. I wondered where they were, but once again I assumed it was the raccoon. Right?
[02:50 a.m]
I had been looking for a long time and still could not find anything, so I decided to take a look backstage. Everything looked normal except for one thing; there was some sort of sticky puddle on the floor, and if that wasn't enough, I accidentally stepped on it. At that moment I could not be more disgusted until a drop of the same substance fell on me. I looked up and the worm that I had been looking for was above me, staring directly at me. The mysterious unpleasant substance came out of its mouth. I did not know what to do. I was paralyzed. The worm that now looked possessed, was slowly opening its mouth, pulling out a retractable jaw. The jaw slowly started approaching me, looking at the door that was now open. I didn't care why was it open, the only thing I did was running towards it.
The creature followed me at an unexpected speed, luckily I managed to close the door in time. I calmed down, I didn't know what was that or what had just happened. Now I’m sure that no one had stolen anything, maybe that's what Miguel tried to tell me, who knows.
[03:20 a.m]
I was going straight to the exit (My shift ended at dawn but I wasn't going to wait that long)
On the way, I heard a lullaby, a rare one. The melody undoubtedly was for children but the voice was horrible. It only repeated one word, it was intelligible, it was too far away.
Curiosity killed me. I wanted to go and at the same time, I didn’t. In the end, I went. The voice was now heard more and more clearly, it said "Eva" I think. I got closer to it. I still didn't know what it was until I realized where the music was coming from. The stage. At that point, I already knew what it was, I could hear the word "kevax" repeatedly. I looked out and it was the other character that I can’t really remember. It didn't move at all. Then I calmed down.I thought that the only one that was possessed was the worm until I noticed that now the Papilince was not there. I sat down to check the cameras to see if I found it when I realized that none of the cameras were working. How strange.
I started thinking about what was happening. They are only supposed to be costumes, but because they move alone, maybe there was someone inside them? No, the worm looked and moved very differently. It can’t be. I kept thinking for a long time.
[04:10 a.m]
I went to the food court and bought some gummies in the food machine. I was very hungry, I went to the office to pick up my things and leave. I arrived at the office and I realized that there was a message on the phone. They apparently had called me to see how I was. I rapidly locked the door and hid under the desk to calmly listen to the calls.
-Hi ... Hello ... Hello ... Hello??. It can't be, really again ?? This always happens, now I will have to clean up everything again.
* End of call *
* Next message *
-Well, I’m recording this in case I die, since a confidentiality agreement does not count if you are dead.
I am at the park, and I am going to clean a corpse. The corpse of the guard, the police or whoever is listening to this will wonder why I am going to do this, I will say why this stupid company has a park for children where the main attraction is things of the devil, so very much often I have to clean the corpses of night guards. If I don't do it and it is discovered that the company has killer dolls I will have big problems, and I don't want that. (Takes a deep breath), I don't know why this is happening and I'm not interested. (a door is heard while opening), If someone hears this to check the spare suits, they may find something there... (the song that kevaax sings is heard) ........ ohh no, no please .... (an unintelligible sound is heard).
* End of call *
I stayed under the table for a while reflecting on what I had just Heard.
[05:00 a.m]
It’s been a long time, so I decided to leave. I was going straight to the park entrance. I was terrified. I didn't know what had happened to that man? What had they done to him?
When I was in front of the exit I felt observed but I didn't know from where, nothing was heard, only the strong breeze. I paid close attention to the environment until I saw under the park sign the substance from the worm. I knew that I could not go near there. Then I checked one of the typical maps found in parks, but there were no more exits except for one; the emergency exit of the park was through the pool area.
I went to the pool area, I had no idea what that area of the park was like, I had never entered.
You could tell that the place hadn't been cleaned for a long time, the weather was cold, and there was a very dense fog. I didn't want to be there, according to the map, the exit was near the largest pool. I had been walking for a while until I found an emergency exit sign, I was excited. I was finally going to get out of this hell, and they couldn't call me crazy, I had the tape of one of the previous company employees.
Happiness lasted for a short time. When the fog revealed my exit, it also revealed another of those things. This time it was the Papulince. it was slowly approaching, despite returning to the main entrance, the worm probably was already gone. I started listening to music from afar, it was heard behind me, I quickly turned around and there was nothing. Maybe I am indeed going crazy. I looked again towards the exit and there was nothing either. I did not know what was happening, I panicked, and then. .. something hit my head. I fell to the ground, everything was moving from one side to another, something was dragging me across the grass, but where was it taking me?
[05:50 a.m]
I was finally able to open my eyes, my head was bleeding, I didn't know where I was. I saw everything blurry, I couldn't move. Something was moving in front of me. Was it the Papulince? Was it fixing something? Was it doing something to a costume.. It’s uncertain. I could see someone inside the costume. Nick? Mickel? I didn't remember their name. It didn't matter anymore. I wondered what was going on. It was hiding in the costume, it was looking at me. It was my turn ... I was so close…
[10:00 a.m]
From one moment to the another I could see well, but ... I couldn't move or speak, what was going on? I heard some voices on the other side of the door.
-Have you seen the night watchman?
-No, he sure left early.
- Yes, he must be tired.
-I don't see the boss around here either.
-It's true, that is strange.
Someone had just entered the room, I couldn't speak or move, I was exhausted. The man was looking at me, maybe he saw me.
-Hey William, look at this.
-What happened?
-Help me take the head off the costume
-What for? Don’t be such a weirdo.
-Just help me, alright?
They found me, I survived, I'm alive
-OMG!
-Is it a human corpse?
-I think so..
-Help me get it out
* They removed the corpse from the costume *
As I may be seeing myself.. It cannot be, I am dead. But what is happening? It cannot be. as I am here and also in front of me, NO WAY, HELP, PLEASE HELP ME, HELP
