# **The Draw** Candlelight flickers across scattered Tarot cards, casting dancing shadows against the dorm walls. you stayed behind, drawn to the deck. Fingers brush the cards until one sticks to skin. The Fool. Turned over. A jester dances on a cliff edge. Innocent. The card feels unnaturally warm. --- "Don't be surprised if you're feeling trapped," you murmurs, recalling Haley's warning. DING. The elevator. you looks up. The hall is empty. 2 AM. DING. Closer. Impossible. No footsteps. DING. Right outside the door. The card turns ice cold. you drops it. The jester’s painted smile widens, staring directly at you. Lights flicker. The locked door swings open. In the darkness, something stands. It bends in impossible ways. Eyes that weren't there watch you now.
