Walking through the rooms, that friend still kept bugging you about the bandage. You felt guilty about it, even if it wasn't your fault.

The lights flickered again.

All of you ran to the nearest closet, but there were only 2 present in the room.

As soon as you were about to enter, that friend took your spot and shut you out. The monster was coming closer and there was no other choice than to hide right beside the closet. It was near the corner of the room, where you were concealed just enough not to be seen from the entrance.

The monster passed through and miraculously didn't catch you.

They exited the closet.

"SERIOUSLY? YOU'RE SO PETTY! I COULD'VE DIED!"

"Petty!? You killed off our friend!"

"I didn't even do anything! I already said I used my bandage!!"

"Yeah, y/n didn't have any to spare, please stop fighting."
The one accusing you lunged at you, but your other friend held them back.

"WOAH CALM DOWN! IT WASN'T EVEN THEIR FAULT!"

"Yes it is!"
They fought and eventually, your other friend got overpowered and was dragged to the next door.

"[Friend] is coming with me, I won't let them risk being with a traitor."

"Hey let me go! They didn't do shit, stop accusing them!!!"

"Oh, shut up. You're gonna be grateful I brought you away from this thing," they said looking you up and down.

"Excuse me?"

"I'm so sorry, y/n!!"

"Come on, let's go." The 'friend' shut the door on your face, precenting you from going into the next room.

You sat down with your back against the door thinking about everything you did.
God I'm so stupid. I didn't even do anything.. Atleast I think I didn't.. But I still feel so guilty. I hate this, I hate them, I hate everything.

You were sitting there in tears, wishing everything was just a dreaming.

The lights flickered, but you were too miserable to notice that.

Then that familiar distorted noise with the lights shattering came closer.
It caught you off-guard.
At this point, might as well not even try. What is there to live for?
But for some reason, you felt like you should definitely get in a closet, even if you didn't want to.

Some part of you wants to just end it all, but some part of you still wanted to see the rest of this place. I mean, you're here already
If you're gonna die, atleast die knowing what goes on in this god forsaken "hotel".

Suddenly, you heard a loud glitchy noise and the room turned red. You turned back and saw a glitched figure.

You passed out and woke up again. You looked up to see them staring at you.

"What the hell are you doing here."

"Y/N? OH thank god you're safe!," they tried to hug you, but theu were stopped."

You tried to speak, but you kept stuttering and couldn't find your words.
You noticed the lights flickered and tried to get to the nearest closet, but there wasn't any distorted noise.

You looked back at your.. "friend"...

"Y/n, tell us NOW. How did you get here."

You still couldn't speak. You just ran to the next door, failing to notice an eye surrounded by a black substance beside the closet you approached earlier.

However, as you opened the door, the lights flickered again and the eye appeared even more. This time, they were together in large clumps making everything feel unsettling. They made a weird blinking sound, although it sounded more like clicking.
They seemed to stare at you no matter where you went. Just staring at every action and movement you do. They didn't do anything to you, though. It just stared.

It was unnerving, to say the least.

The next few doors were the same except for the fact that a bunch of eyes were occupying them.

Door 39. It was a long hallway, with large windows on each side and wooden pillars. The eyes earlier abruptly stopped. The rain hits the windows as thunder roars in the background with each flash of lightning.
From the ceiling hangs old chandeliers, illuminating the room.

They were still following behind, that one person gossiping and trash talking you.
You can hear them, but it's not worth it.

As you approached the end of the hallway, you heard a scream and they ran towards you. You looked back to see what happened and saw something.

It was a black, inky humanoid figure emerging from the ground. It had just one eye, similar to those of the eyes you saw in the previous rooms. A black substance pooled around the area the figure was rising from.
