After losing Ashley, you and Leon had been searching aimlessly for her, ending up in a dark wet basement. You could hear the sound of your watery footsteps. It was so quiet you could hear the sound of Leon's breath exit his body slowly.

"Jeez, could we be any louder?" You inquired, being hit with a specific memory years ago where the quiet was a terrifying place to be.

"No helping that," He said softly, walking ahead of you.

"There are some things we should talk about when this is over." His voice echoed from the water, to the walls, and into your ears. Your face flushed slightly, mind wandering at what he was even noting to.

"Sure, if we get out of here." You answered behind him. He scoffed before replying.

"We will, I'll make sure of it." You wanted to smile but soon after heard the sound of an overgrown insects moving quickly in your direction. Both you and Leon stop, listening for more footsteps before it began crawling on the walls.

"I can't see it." You whispered. The same memory from earlier slammed into you like a truck and you immediately closed your eyes.

Finally you heard it again, moving closer and closer until--

BAM!

BAM!

BAM!

BAM!

You opened your eyes, stunned you'd nailed it with four shots, killing this overgrown insect looking creature.

"How did you-- y'know what, nevermind. Good job, but I think there may be more." Leon's eyes were shocked at your skilled hearing before turning in the opposite direction aiming at the footsteps he saw crawling through the water.

"F/n duck!" Leon yelled reminding you of the cabin you, him, Luis, and Ashley were trapped in. You obey quickly hearing distasteful noises from behind you before gunshots silenced it.

"Shit!-" You had been shocked when one stood directly in front of your outstretched fearful hand. You had fallen to the ground, arm outstretched seemingly halting the creature. Your eyes widened as you threw your arm to the side, going for your gun when the creature was shockingly also thrown in that direction. Slamming into the wall with a bang, then the piercing noise of gunshots sounded before going silent.

"Here." You looked up to see Leon's hand out, waiting for you to grab on. You did exactly that, standing to you feet, gun in hand. After a moment of silence, you broke it.

"I- I don't know what that was." Your voice was beyond unsure, noting to Leon you were being truthful.

"Thats alright, neither do I, but we can worry about that later." His eyes met yours, moving closer placing his hand on your shoulder.

"Let's go get Ashley." He spoke. This causing your face to flush, before nodding in agreement.

You followed Leon into a large room with a monstrous chandelier hanging from the ceiling. Both of you caught the soft, dark chanting from six cultists in black robes and one in red adorning an antler mask.
