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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFiyvvJVNN1
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGK0BjHg8Ib
"There!" I shouted, pointing toward the gate. "We're almost there!"360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjxTKycnQy
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cOGTyL2hi
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrQ3oMuKDf
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhXUXpsu5o
"No!" Maya cried, her voice trembling. "What do we do now?"360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYyF7zSIEc
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjDvMCA7CR
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxFgHUvcRY
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzZIc1gTvB
"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."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvk2YXW3od
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKA0Dsldgs7
"Safer?" Sasha snapped, her voice rising with panic. "Are you kidding me? Those things are in there!"360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6f2DMGwvW
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtCA3Qmkmh
"We don't have a choice!" Evelyn shot back, her eyes wide with desperation. "We can't stay here!"360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylzT0InPdi
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGvzlTY1OB
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIZfdr5FLF
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFk6TiYAP0L
"Fine," I said, my voice firm. "Back to the mansion. Now!"360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00IsHDi6Qi
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIZHAhXKvU
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!"360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3P2xekvhGa
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCmzXrAyWS
"Keep running!" I yelled, grabbing her arm and pulling her forward.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUs7EeuDn1
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rZOb6bvbL
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwydtGiJ0x9
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8poUk5b3o5
"Sasha!" I screamed, my voice filled with anguish as the creature's hand pierced through her back, its bloodied claws emerging from her ribs.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhknmbNckwh
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeirDmLXA2K
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!"360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8q9dlUKzz
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdO21Z5LBO
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBl60yncqax
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4Tu9xporw
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJapoORKrf
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcXeDQGQj5
"Where do we go?" Maya asked, her voice tight with fear.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCxYDWXdm0
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQavkKcq2j
"Upstairs," Evelyn said, her voice trembling. "We'll hide in one of the rooms."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRVAQ9Yxqr
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEeqDPMPFI
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ByDYw82gL
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdXJHSZKUZ
"In here," she said, her voice barely above a whisper.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vePMxXb3a
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gdzO2XW9u
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYkDBSIl3P
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKxMyGWDfH
"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."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5zIw4OP2z
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5oFlSDMWA
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrFrasoLc9
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDaxDMrI5D
"We need to barricade the door!" I said, my voice tight with urgency.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDpVSf5be2
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXkz2faLRE
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UnTHsihRC
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYU38JJg3E
"Aargh!" Maya screamed.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsNkK10wCX
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0pVSLcePS
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyI0aRDmmv
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VJKReBhLE
The sound of her screams echoed through the hallway, growing fainter and fainter until they were swallowed by the darkness.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZozRdNHbD
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ787HcGIR8X
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeKzMN7rpK
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0b6tXHkIc
"The closet," I said, my voice tight with urgency. "We'll hide in the closet."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hrLNPp9Kl
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7JlQr2Tym
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdZe5JNXOa
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJdh2MRvma
"I'm sorry," Maya whispered, her voice trembling. "For everything. For not believing you. For not being there when you needed me."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeayhLtqYHd
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCR8MznIWz
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CRZumCl7W
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bHQprka4p
"I forgive you," I said finally, my voice soft but steady. "And I'm sorry too. For pushing you away. For not trusting you."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1y8NstSQ9
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYf8gqjr1Dd
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucH0iH6OlM
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1cUEyHmIG
But then the sound came again—a low, guttural moan, closer than ever. The monsters were right outside the door.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuCpRZVLur
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAWO5YHJTq
I closed my eyes, holding Maya tighter. "Whatever happens," I whispered, "I'm glad we're together."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYdJ3lNcas
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfKA2uxMV2
Maya nodded, her tears soaking into my shirt. "Me too."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOTGyHiMvf
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dCdCVk2rZ
The sound of the monsters grew louder, their claws scraping against the door. Maya and I held our breath, our hearts pounding in unison.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDG9DwDzD0a
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJheFmwc6g
And then, silence.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcM6Zt9PRF
