The laboratory

Winter has come and with that the rainy days.

I'm inside my college laboratory getting some work done while I wait for the rain to slow down.

Some thunders can be heard outside and it didn't took long for the power to go down.

Everytime this happens the lights take long to come back, so I decide to pack my things and go home.

Classes are already over and the only people here it's me and the security guard. I go to the front desk to ask for the room keys, so I can lock it, but no one's there. I figure he's probably just doing the rounds and leave a note saying I'm leaving and the door is unlocked.

Walking back to the laboratory I hear something moving inside, I enter to see nothing.

A gut feeling tells me to leave, so I pack everything quickly and head out, when I hear the sound again.

I turn around and froze in place. The jars that once had animals in formaldehyde are now empty and the exhibition skeleton is gone.

Adrenaline takes control of me and I run. The corridors seen to never end and when I finally reach the front the door is locked. I start punching and kicking it, while I scream for help.

The lights come back and I hear the security guard asking if I need help. I sight in relieve and as I'm about to walk towards his voice, I see him outside in the campus, looking confuse at me.

I didn't had time to react as the light go back off and the sound of bones crackling start approaching me.
