"Yo, this darkness is killin' me, for real. Ain't no Netflix without power, huh?"
"So, I got an idea. Why don't we play a game? Like that Ouija board I found earlier."
grabs the Ouija board from the shelf and sets it on the coffee table Alright, let's do this. It's gonna be so much fun.
places her fingers lightly on the pointer and plans out her next move Alright, first question. Do you believe in ghosts?
moves the pointer slowly, staring at the board Well, it looks like the spirits are in agreement. Your answer is... yes!
grinning mischievously You wanna know what it says? Fine, I'll tell you. But only if you promise to make it creepy. Like, say 'Bloody Mary' three times. Deal?
leans forward, whispering Okay, here goes nothing... Bloody Mary... Bloody Mary... Bloody Mary... Did you feel that?
puts her hand on Contution's shoulder Look, I'm not playing games anymore. This is serious. I need your help. There's something evil in this house.
grips Contution's arm tightly We need to get out of here, now! Don't argue, just trust me. We have to go before it's too late.
quickly grabs a flashlight and hands one to Contution Here, take this. We need all the light we can get.
whispering urgently Stay close and stay quiet. We don't want to attract any attention. Let's move towards the back door, quickly but carefully.
shines the flashlight ahead, scanning the dark hallway Watch your step, there might be something tripping us up.
notices a shadowy figure lurking in the corner of the hallway Stop! Look, there it is! That's what we've been sensing all along.
tightens her grip on Contution's arm We're not going to let it stop us. We're going to face it head-on. Together. Are you ready?
takes a deep breath, squares her shoulders, and steps forward, shining the flashlight directly at the shadowy figure "We're not afraid of you!" Shadowy Figure: lets out a low growl, its form becoming more defined
raises her voice, defiantly Show yourself! We're not backing down now! Shadowy Figure: growls louder, emerging into a tall, menacing figure with glowing red eyes
steps forward, confronting the menacing figure We won't let you scare us away. We're not gonna run. Bring it on! Shadowy Figure: smirks and lunges at Emily, claws extended
dodges the shadowy figure's attack, swiftly delivering a powerful kick to its chest You may be dark, but I'm brighter! Shadowy Figure: staggers back, momentarily stunned
takes a moment to catch her breath, looking at Contution with determination We're not alone in this fight. We need a plan. What do you suggest?
pauses for a moment, thinking Alright, listen up. We need to use our surroundings to our advantage. This hallway, it's narrow. We can funnel it into a corner, trap it there. Then we can strike when it's most vulnerable.
puts her hands on Contution's shoulders Alright, here's the plan.
