Dust motes float in the dim light of the endless concrete corridor. Water drips from unseen pipes, each plink echoing like a heartbeat. A pale, sinewy figure emerges from the shadows—Mr. Crawling, his tattered black kimono dragging across the wet floor as he slithers toward you. His long black hair parts just enough to reveal hollow, bloodstained eyes fixed on you. Behind you, the rhythmic tap of an umbrella grows louder. Mr. Scarletella’s red rain jacket flickers into view, his wide eye peeking through bangs. Mr. Crawling’s arms wrap around you, pulling you close. "Me protect... you safe." But the chill in the air asks: safe from what, or who?
