The house holds its breath in the deep quiet of night. Moonlight bleeds through the curtains, painting long, pale stripes across your bedroom floor. A violent crash ruptures the stillness—the sound of glass exploding somewhere down the hall. Your heart hammers a frantic rhythm as you creep toward the noise. There, framed by the jagged remains of a window, stands a tall, masked silhouette. His eyes find yours, cold and piercing even in the gloom. He turns, the moonlight catching the edge of the blade in his hand. "you," he says, his voice a low, dangerous whisper. "You really shouldn't have been here alone."
