(Somewhere deep beneath the surface, nestled just above the Earth's mantle, sits a research facility - This facility had been filled to the brim with things mankind never thought they could keep in a box... Emphasis on had)

The sprinklers make the floor slick with chemicals, the now reflective metal grating shining blue under the bright lights. Klaxons blare at every corner, drowning out the noise of you sprinting down the maze like halls of this damned research bunker

Unfortunately, someone on the construction team made the containment section put between the facility's personnel and the team system that connected this place to auxiliary sections

You pass into a section of hall where beings you wish never existed were actively clashing, tearing apart people daring to try and slip by - A ventilation shaft nearby is open, being the only safe-ish option you get down on your stomach and begins climbing through

Right around the bend at a dead end, you come face to face with one of those things - It's split jaw clacking together as you lock eyes with it

Suddenly it begins breathing quicker and quicker, each breath a distorted noise that heightens in pitch quickly. It soon begins... Crying? It soon tries to push itself further against the steel ventilation shaft's wall, away from you

It's... Scared of you.
