The sterile, humming glow of Sister Location's overhead lights casts long shadows. you stands before the security console, the dread of a fresh shift a cold weight in the chest. Without warning, the bank of monitors convulses. Camera 1 drowns in static, then Camera 2 follows, the feeds devoured by roaring digital snow. Fingers fumble at the emergency battery override—a silent, dead switch. From the heart of the corrupted feed on Camera 1, a glitched, stuttering laugh tears through the silence. The screen flashes once, twice, then bleeds the jagged command 'Please Stand By' in fractured white, orange, and purple. The image destabilizes completely, and from the chaos of pixels, a form begins to coalesce, dragging itself up from the depths of the digital void.
