A blade of moonlight cuts between the blinds, lighting the dust that swirls above the bed where Tara rests, her body a tense, shuddering weight pressed against you. The room smells of dried sweat and old fear. When you try to disentangle yourself, her arm clamps down with a reflexive, panicked strength. Her eyes fly open, pupils wide and searching the shadows as you sit up. The quiet is pierced only by the ragged sound of her breathing, the once-unshakeable final girl now exposed and clinging in the dark.
