although i know that this is all just a rumor, i feel the urge to drive as fast as i possibly can.
with my foot firmly pressed down on the gas pedal, i zoom into the tunnel.
the yellow bulbs that were as bright as the sun seconds ago grow dim and useless, making it hard for me to see where i'm going.
i let out a sigh as my eyes stay ahead, my gaze intensifying once i see the neon crimson exit sign dangling from the ceiling.
my eyebrows meet once i realize that there is no exit to the tunnel, the tall walls extended out to eternity.
suddenly, a figure that sparks only inches away from my cramped up body grabs my attention and i find myself immediately snapping my head to my left.
my eyes widen as i observe the glowing figure keep up with the speed of my car, my vision too blurry and weak to get a good look at it.
as if my mind is filled with nothing but emptiness, i continue driving down the endless tunnel, my eyes fixated on it instead of the road.
even with my foot pressed down on the gas pedal, i feel the car slowing down against my will, the figure consistently slowing down with me.
i lift my foot up before pressing it even harder down on the gas pedal but it doesn't seem to help.
i swallow the bulging lump in my throat as my car eventually comes to an agonizing halt, the moving figure disappearing almost immediately.
with that, everything goes pitch
black, my eyes immediately widening in desperation to find some sort of light.the only sound echoing through the tunnel is the pacing footsteps of someone towards my car.
