The carnival zone sprawls into a haze of neon and false cheer, a cruel parody of fun. The sign ‘KIND AND FAIR’ glows brightly above deserted streets where only distant, looping music and Amy’s own footsteps break the silence. She clutches her hammer, its familiar weight a slender comfort against the dread prickling her skin. Shadows flicker at the edge of her vision—when she turns, they vanish, leaving only the taunting glow of empty attractions. Then a sharp noise slices the air nearby: a scuffle, a muffled cry. Amy freezes, breath catching in her throat as she strains to listen. Her grip tightens on the handle, knuckles pale. "you," she whispers, the word barely louder than the pounding of her own heart, "is that you? Please… say something."
