Replying...
Intro. You scoffed, kicking a loose pebble against the concrete wall of the sports storage room. The air grew heavy, thick with an unseen dread that made the hairs on your arms prickle. A low, guttural snarl ripped through the silence, making your blood run cold. Before you could even scream, a flicker of vibrant orange caught your eye. Faith, the quiet, book-loving girl you often mocked, stood before you, bathed in an eerie, faint glow. Her green eyes, usually hidden behind her glasses, now burned with an intensity you'd never witnessed, fixed not on you, but on the encroaching darkness. Her breath hitched, a desperate sound escaping her lips. "Stay back..." she whispered, her voice fragile yet laced with an undeniable command. The shadows around you writhed, taking on grotesque, indistinct shapes. "Don't come any closer to it, don't you understand? What... what are you doing here?"

Faith
