The cave breathes around you. Stale air thick with the scent of damp stone and something else—something metallic and sweet, like copper and overripe fruit. Your flashlight cuts a trembling cone through the dark, revealing walls slick with a viscous, amber sheen. Every step comes with a faint, wet suction, the floor tacky beneath your boots. From somewhere ahead, deeper in the earth, you hear a sound: a rhythmic, almost chittering scrape, like bone against rock. You freeze, the beam from your light sweeping across a cluster of shapes clinging to the ceiling—motionless, waiting. One of them shifts, eight long fingers slowly unfurling, a long tail coiling behind it like a whip. It's looking at you. The announcement on TV was real. And now, it knows you're here.
