BEEP.
BEEP.
BEEP. BEEP. BEEP. BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEPBEEPBEEPBEEPBBEEEEEEEEBEEEEEBEEEEEEBEEEEP
The sound gets faster and faster, then stops. I hear rustling, and movement. Shapes move around above me. The lights are so bright. I wish everything would stop.
Then it does, and everything fades into black.
