The garden stretched out before us, the moonlight casting long, eerie shadows across the grass. The sound of the creatures' moans echoed behind us, growing louder with each passing second. We ran, our breaths ragged and our hearts pounding, the mansion's gate looming in the distance.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AgQmJhPof
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsK3lLlCpCQ
"There!" I shouted, pointing toward the gate. "We're almost there!"122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZE5VO8hwUz
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGs2q5gbM3
But as we reached the gate, my heart sank. It was locked, the heavy iron bars unmovable. I grabbed the gate and shook it, but it didn't budge.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETsI3GKuSl
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxi3oXHrPI
"No!" Maya cried, her voice trembling. "What do we do now?"122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrgjYYzFAq
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sesqu8Ww7
I glanced around, desperation clawing at my chest. The walls surrounding the garden were too high and smooth to climb, and the creatures were closing in fast.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplFlP4BHTj
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEa4qA4AKk4
"We have to go back," Evelyn said, her voice tight with fear. "It's too open out here. We'll be safer inside the mansion."122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGQ8Oednhl
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAsr5mBQAl
"Safer?" Sasha snapped, her voice rising with panic. "Are you kidding me? Those things are in there!"122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrPYSf1KIY
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kFEGdfx1s
"We don't have a choice!" Evelyn shot back, her eyes wide with desperation. "We can't stay here!"122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPtsy6fyMw
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjdOSD3zkn
The sound of the creatures' moans grew louder, and I turned to see their glowing eyes emerging from the shadows. They were closer than ever.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjb1pZEWIOd
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIDodazg52
"Fine," I said, my voice firm. "Back to the mansion. Now!"122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwJddEqXOq
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvv5VE3fiuk
We turned and ran, the creatures hot on our heels. Sasha pulled out her phone, her hands trembling as she tried to call for help. "No service!" she shouted, her voice breaking. "There's no damn service!"122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1VWACMPQd4
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJInmwGgZY
"Keep running!" I yelled, grabbing her arm and pulling her forward.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIBhsAQRk0
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2hmV2n8vi
But as we neared the mansion, one of the creatures appeared out of nowhere and lunged toward us. We all dodged, and for a moment, I thought we'd all avoided it. But then I heard Sasha scream. The creature had caught her, its grip like iron. She struggled, her eyes wide with terror.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uhAFrXMmT
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVc7h5wyP8U
"Sasha!" I screamed, my voice filled with anguish as the creature's hand pierced through her back, its bloodied claws emerging from her ribs.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuF0HO9U5Im
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cq8CP8SUn
I started toward her, but Maya held me back. "Look at her!" she cried, her voice trembling. "We can't help her! We have to keep going!"122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyN8XkZNLT
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGyRmURmqS
Sasha gasped my name, her voice barely audible over the creature's snarls. "I'm sorry," she whispered, her eyes locking with mine one last time before the creature tore her away.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡls72SbOcw5
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6ZvvvnFUp
Tears streamed down my face as I turned and ran, Maya pulling me forward. We burst through the mansion's back door and slammed it shut, our breaths coming in ragged gasps.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYRm9Xwfa1
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFLKrqXGvR
"Where do we go?" Maya asked, her voice tight with fear.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2N1DmOHdjP
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgJ17xzv82
"Upstairs," Evelyn said, her voice trembling. "We'll hide in one of the rooms."122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQKdks1MRo
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DMnAIj1Nq
We ran up the stairs, the sound of the creatures' footsteps echoing behind us. We reached a room at the end of the hall, and Evelyn pushed the door open, her hands trembling.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqlOg3nDeh
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8ZDZJEBND
"In here," she said, her voice barely above a whisper.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlOGWEoq8b
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhmeg9rrkl
We stepped inside, and I closed the door behind us, my heart pounding in my chest. The room was dark, the air heavy with the scent of dust and decay. Evelyn leaned against the wall, her face pale and her eyes wide with fear.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGABtLNumP8
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKawIBYG937
"I think… I think my father might be responsible for all this," she said, her voice trembling. "He's always been obsessed with preserving the past. He couldn't let go of my grandparents. He must've found a way to bring them back... as those things."122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8oCZBUZZH
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jBDQWoNvC
Before I could respond, the door shuddered, the sound of claws scraping against wood filling the room. The creatures were outside, their guttural moans growing louder.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoiJ6qGiMtE
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyRfFKHwzN
"We need to barricade the door!" I said, my voice tight with urgency.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBs6tQs2hxB
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0a3KvO0D8
But before we could move, the door burst open, and a creature's hand shot through the gap, its claws digging into Evelyn's arm. She screamed, her eyes wide with terror as the creature pulled her outside.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonlEWIGVIa
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXFqundrTA
"Aargh!" Maya screamed.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFmpV2F6OQ
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRQ7duMqOu
I grabbed Evelyn's other arm, pulling with all my strength, but the creature was too strong. Its claws dug deeper into her flesh, and she let out a bloodcurdling scream as it yanked her through the door and out of my grip.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmVaQu4WMt
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxzVIlwgYj
The sound of her screams echoed through the hallway, growing fainter and fainter until they were swallowed by the darkness.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewfafq6kIX
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEPrRCWfEj
Maya and I stood frozen, our breaths coming in ragged gasps. The creatures were just outside, their snarls filling the air. We had nowhere left to run.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCk1ocqCKv
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3UPyAHh2d
"The closet," I said, my voice tight with urgency. "We'll hide in the closet."122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9LyLYIEhW
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0azdpnRxY
We ran to the closet and stepped inside, closing the door behind us. The air was thick with the scent of dust and fear, the sound of the creatures' moans growing louder outside.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9nBLgQWpK
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLskOLdzVN5
"I'm sorry," Maya whispered, her voice trembling. "For everything. For not believing you. For not being there when you needed me."122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1f7sF2MX4
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzczGuNEvR
I hesitated, my heart pounding in my chest. I could feel Maya's tears against my shoulder, her body shaking with silent sobs. For a moment, the weight of everything we'd been through pressed down on us—the addiction, the fights, the distance that had grown between us.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1ykNtUU8Y
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkICgMJ9Wza
"I forgive you," I said finally, my voice soft but steady. "And I'm sorry too. For pushing you away. For not trusting you."122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9lo3wSAxg
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCN0uLtBJs
Maya let out a choked sob, her arms tightening around me. We hugged each other tightly, the warmth of our embrace a stark contrast to the cold, dark closet. For a moment, it felt like nothing else mattered—not the monsters outside, not the mansion, not the horrors we'd faced. It was just the two of us, as it had always been.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pzyR7Lm5v
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qphN5r0TL
But then the sound came again—a low, guttural moan, closer than ever. The monsters were right outside the door.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5DSBuL398
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35cM88Q2oD
I closed my eyes, holding Maya tighter. "Whatever happens," I whispered, "I'm glad we're together."122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNzPsH2lHs
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNN3J4qntJ
Maya nodded, her tears soaking into my shirt. "Me too."122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamyjzuUEkt
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnfvZ6r7SI
The sound of the monsters grew louder, their claws scraping against the door. Maya and I held our breath, our hearts pounding in unison.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5om2kRVmP
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9rSgqG76j
And then, silence.122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKx3Rqix9O
