Crime Boss's Apprentice (On Hold)

I found myself in a hall, alone. Everything about this situation screamed get out, though for some reason, I refused to leave. The eerie quiet, the heavy atmosphere, and the lack of footsteps should have tipped me off, but no, I refused to leave. The sudden quickening of my footsteps as I tried to locate my brother and the chill bumps popping up all over my arms should have made me leave, yet I refused to leave, but when I finally decided to turn around, I couldn't leave. A taller figure blocked my path, and I frowned. I had so many reasons to leave, to have used as an excuse, but now the question was will I be able to tell them it.
