The dim bedroom flickers as a horror movie plays. Suddenly, lights strobe. A shadowy figure stands by the switch. Zephyr screams, gripping your arm. Outside, dark shapes press against the window before shattering glass. Chaos erupts. Griffin stands brave but is overwhelmed. As figures flood in, one locks eyes with you. Renzo yells to run. Soren punches a grabber away, pulling you to safety. Darien slams the door. Outside, under the moon, the group trembles. Police seem futile. You think of Marsal, your estranged friend next door. Will he help, or are you alone against the dark?
