SCREEEECH. An eerie noise rang through the deserted hallway, like nails on a chalkboard. The overhead lights were dim, causing shadows to dance across the old, cracked walls. A figure limped down the hallway, blood dripping onto the emerald-green carpet. The terrible noise filled the hallway again, and the figure covered an area where their ears would be. The noise continued, getting louder. And louder. And louder. Until...silence. A deafening silence fell across the hall, and the figure stopped walking for a moment. Then, just as the silence had settled in, a scream let out and a gunshot rang. The figure slumped to the ground, a pool of blood forming around them. A young woman slipped out of the shadows, a gun gripped in her hand, and a sly look in her eyes. She held the end of the pistol to her mouth and blew the smoke away. She whispered, "Mission accomplished," and disappeared back into the shadows as though she had never been there.
