The rain poured down relentlessly, the forest surrounding them cloaked in an eerie, suffocating darkness. Their footsteps crunched leaves and twigs, the chill of the air seeping into their bones.
Kairos shoved his hands into his pockets, eyes fixed on the decaying mansion up ahead. His dark hair stuck to his forehead from the rain, but he didn’t care. The mansion's presence felt like a whisper in his ear, luring him closer.
Kairos Blackwood (MC)
'Why am I feeling so drawn to this place? It’s like... it’s calling me.'
Zane Blackwood (Kairos’s Brother)
(Bounced beside him, grinning like a child handed free candy.)
Zane Blackwood (Kairos’s Brother)
“Hey, Kai, you feeling it too? This place gives off serious ghost-vibes!”
Kairos Blackwood (MC)
“More like it reeks of death and mold.”
Zane Blackwood (Kairos’s Brother)
“Come on, be a little excited! Isn’t this what you live for?” (＾▽＾)
Kairos scoffed, though a slight smirk tugged at his lips. His brother was the only one who could get away with teasing him.
Mason Carter(Mc Colleague)
(Rolled eye) “This is a waste of time. Just another creepy old house for you guys to gawk at.”
Mason, his so-called “colleague” and skeptic of the group.
Ethan, the calmest of the bunch, adjusted his glasses and stared at the mansion thoughtfully.
Ethan Cole (Mc Colleague)
“No. This place... It feels different. There’s something here, something restless.”
Izzy and Noah exchanged worried glances. Isabelle’s hand tightened around Noah’s, their fingers interlocked as if drawing strength from each other.
Noah Reyes (Mc Colleague)
“I-I can’t see properly. Everything’s... blurry.”
Izzy Rivera (Mc Colleague)
“It’s okay. We’ll stick together.”
Kairos’s gaze swept over his team. He knew some of them hated his guts. Mason for one, never let him forget it.
But this expedition was different. His instincts screamed danger, but also... something more. Something pulling him in.
Kairos Blackwood (MC)
“Alright, we didn’t come all this way to chicken out. Let’s get inside.”
Dorian’s voice interrupted his thoughts, smooth and sharp like a knife’s edge.
Dorian 'Dori'
“Be careful, Kairos. Curiosity can be a deadly thing.”
Kairos Blackwood (MC)
(Eyed him suspiciously.)
Dorian had joined their group recently and despite his friendly demeanor, something about him was off. What the hell is he hiding?
They trudged up the broken steps and pushed open the rotting doors. The air was thick with a suffocating stench, the shadows dancing with every flicker of their flashlights.
A shiver ran down Kairos’s spine. The mansion’s silence wasn’t just emptiness. It was a predator’s stillness, watching, waiting.
Zane Blackwood (Kairos’s Brother)
“Dude, it’s freezing in here.”
Mason Carter(Mc Colleague)
“That’s called being inside a stone-cold building, genius.”
Ethan Cole (Mc Colleague)
“No. This is something else.”
Kairos Blackwood (MC)
(Narrowed his eyes. His chest tightened with an unexplainable sensation.)
Kairos Blackwood (MC)
'Why does it feel like I’m being... welcomed?'
