Lurking In The Darkness

I approached a tall building, and the lights were out, "this is probably a monster-infested building, I better leave before it gets worse."

As turned to leave, I heard a faint cry for help. It was soft and pathetic, it sounded human. I ventured into the eerie darkness, unbeknownst to the perils inherent within.

As I ventured deeper into the building, the darkness seemed to swallow me whole. I stumbled forward, my hands outstretched in front of me like a blind man. The cry came again, louder and more urgent, and I followed the sound to a door on the left.

I pushed it open, and a faint light spilled out, illuminating the hallway. I stepped inside, my eyes adjusting to the dim glow. The room was small, with a single bed in the center. A figure lay on the bed, weak.

"Please..." the figure whispered, their voice barely audible.
