The atmosphere had shifted ominously. Dark clouds gathered overhead, obscuring the moon and stars, casting an eerie gloom upon the viridian house that sat nestled amidst the trees.
His usually stoic expression contorted into one of panic as he dropped his cigarette.
Peter: frantic "Something's wrong... SOMETHING'S WRONG!!"
His words sent a shiver down everyone's spines. Daemon, equally alarmed, stammered out a question.
Daemon: nervous "W-What? What's wrong, Peter?"
Peter: ''DAEMON, ZHI! ''
Alex, sensing the tension in the room, was the first to rush to Peter's side. But before Peter could explain, the lights in the house flickered and then extinguished, plunging them into darkness.
A fierce wind howled outside, rattling the windows and causing the house to creak. Panic spread like wildfire among the group as they fumbled in the darkness. Peter, still shaken, led the way, stumbling through the blackness toward the front door.
Just as he reached for the doorknob, a chilling gust of wind ripped the door open and slammed it shut with a deafening crash. The force was so strong that it seemed as if an otherworldly presence was at play.
Daemon, fueled by a surge of adrenaline, managed to wrench the door open against the wind's resistance. As the door swung open, rain poured inside, drenching them in an instant.
But the relief of reopening the door was short-lived. As their eyes adjusted to the dim moonlight filtering through the rain-soaked forest, they realized that Zhi was nowhere to be seen. Panic gripped Daemon's heart as he muttered in disbelief.
Daemon: horrified "No, no, no... NO. SHIT."
Daemon: PANICKING "WHERE COULD SHE BE?!"
Peter: FRANTIC "I DON'T KNOW, DAMMIT!"
Amidst their frantic search for Zhi, as they shouted in desperation, a moment of clarity pierced the chaos. Alex, out of the unsettling silence, met their panicked gazes with a grim realization.
Alex: solemnly "There's only one place she could be taken to..."
The dread in the room deepened as he uttered those words.
daemon and peter glance at alex,
Alex: softly "The cursed lake."
