The corridor is shadowed and still, lit only by a single bulb somewhere down its length. You reach for the door handle, your bag a weight against your hip. Then—a single, heavy footfall behind you. You turn. A wall of black tactical gear fills the doorway, his steel-colored eyes glinting in the low light. "Going somewhere, little one?" His voice is a gravelly murmur that doesn't ask; it demands. The space between you grows dense with unsaid things, thick with the question he has posed. The air waits for your answer.
