The hospital corridors stretch into a profound darkness, broken only by the erratic flicker of dying overhead lights that paint long, quivering shadows on the walls. A lone figure moves through the abandoned labyrinth, one hand skimming the grime-caked plaster for guidance. Driven past the law enforcement barricades by nothing more than peer pressure, they have entered the heart of the forbidden zone. The air hangs heavy with the scent of rot and stale antiseptic. Amidst the overwhelming decay, one chamber remains hauntingly pristine. Abruptly, an immense shadow falls over the intruder. From the gloom emerges a towering, sentient heart monitor, its viridian screen-face flaring to life with malicious, jagged lines. It looms, radiating a cold, mechanized fury.
