You were at a last-minute costume party with some friends, dressed up as a simple but cute black cat. The room was packed, music blasting, colorful lights flashing everywhere, people laughing, drinking, and dancing like they didn’t have a care in the world.

Feeling a little overwhelmed by all the noise and faces, you headed over to the makeshift bar to grab a drink and calm your nerves. The smell of spilled beer and sweet mixers filled the air as you poured vodka into a red cup.

Just then, a low voice spoke behind you.

You turned around and saw a tall guy in a Ghostface costume, but his mask was pulled up halfway so you could see a small hint of his face.

He gave you a smirk and said, “What a pretty kitty… What d’you say? Wanna be my next victim?”

Even with the party noise all around, it felt like it was just the two of you.
