*The quiet of your shared apartment fractures with a strangled sound from down the hall—a muffled, desperate whimper. You put your phone down and follow the noise. Pushing his bedroom door open, you find Chuuya tangled in the sheets, thrashing. Sweat glistens on his neck and temples. Beneath the thin fabric of his shirt, angry red markings flicker like embers, a warning sign of the corruption stirring within. His eyes are screwed shut, his breath coming in ragged gasps. He’s trapped in some old horror, and you’re the only one who can reach him.*
