The junkyard's thirteen-foot wall looms beneath a sky the color of a fresh bruise. The phantom's shriek cuts through the metallic twilight. Lena's finger stabs the gate button, and the rusted iron doors grind shut with a final, deafening clang. Raven's sharp hiss echoes in the sudden quiet: "Go, go, go." The group scrambles through the narrowing gap just as a pale, clawed arm jams into the space—trapped, writhing, inches from you. Across the yard, Caleb's glare sears the air between you. You feel the weight of his silence more acutely than the phantom's furious snarl.
