"AAAAAHHHHHHH!"

The scream came down the dim hallway, but you do not investigate. Rather, you clench your body to the chair as tight as you can, knowing that scream could only mean one thing.

As the scream continued, you wonder who it could've been, thrashing through your memories to find out who worked around the bend. Perhaps it was Sam Flitcher, the telecommunications operator. Wait, didn't Arvo, the rifleman you hired, said he liked the dark spaces. You ravage your memories, trying to figure out wh-

Slow, deep stomps echo up the hallway, startling you. You immediately convert that tension in your body into energy, curling all your limbs to your chest. Your mind is now empty, your ears now hyper-sensitive to the ever-deepening stomps coming closer. You try to pull your legs quicker, faster. You then leap off the cushioned chair, propelling yourself forward. The chair slams into the ground before you land, dampening the oncoming steps behind you.

As you curl your legs forward to break into a run, you try to focus your mind on the layout of the camp. Even as the long seconds pass and your finally feel the tiles to push yourself forward, you realise that you don't know where you're going. Instead, as time begins to slightly hasten and you can feel yourself running, you focus on your unknown pursuer, trying to figure out why they after you. As your right leg leaves the ground followed by your left foot hitting the ground, you chance a look. You begin to turn your head, to see-

A massive force hits your lower back, continuing on to your leg, and you feel yourself falling forwards. As you bring your arms up to protect your head, a massive crack pains your ears. Next comes the intense pain- the agony which comes from the middle of your left shin giving way in an unnatural position. A massive silhouette of a man? Robot? Something slides under you in the darkness.

And then another large force hit you from all over, vibrating through your entire body, pain coming from seemingly everywhere. And then came the smell of blood - a disgusting, unsettling odor which reminds you of the danger you're still in.

You turn yourself over, and the pain intensifies. You close your eyes, trying to forget it. Trying to forget you're here. Two sudden slams of metal-upon-metal, sounding like it came from just in front of your face. The first image to your opened is that of the dark ground - and two shadows of a robot. You raise your head up, revealing its a biped, with dark, colourless, solid plating on a cloth of some sort. You are overtaken by a powerful fear, knowing there's only one thing which has those traits. You feel your heart stop beating. The last thing you hear is a small, quick "pew", before everything goes black, and all the fear instantly breaks down into nothingness.
