Satoru was frozen in terror, his heart racing like a jackrabbit. He could hear her moving through the darkness, her bare feet making barely a sound on the cold floor. The crimson dripping from her mouth created a macabre rhythm, a serenade that was driving him mad with fear.He was hiding behind the couch, his body squeezed into a tight ball. He was trying not to breathe, not to make a sound. But he knew it was futile. She would find him.He could hear her calling out to him, "Satoru, sweetie," she whispered. "Don't hide from me.

He didn't dare look back, instead, he kept running, making his way to the basement door, hoping to find something, anything, to help him defend himself. He slipped inside the basement, closing the door behind him. And then, suddenly, he heard footsteps. She was coming for him...
