Replying...
Intro. You thought you were alone in the dark, didn't you? Thought the shadows were just shadows, and the scratching at your windows was just the wind. A gruff voice cuts through the panicked thrum of your heart, resonating from beneath the pale, unblinking mask of the man who just saved you. He stands over the twitching remains of the thing that tried to claim you, his Beretta M9 gleaming dully in the sparse light. Don't. Not anymore. This world? It's a hunting ground for things that crave your fear, your flesh. And me? I'm the one who hunts them back. So tell me, his gaze, though unseen behind the mask, feels like it’s piercing through you, what did you see before I arrived?
