In-room 1888, a kid named Jack was sleeping in a hospital bed and about to wake up.
'Wait, where am I?' He thought.
Jack looked around his surroundings, saw he was in a hospital, and thought, 'I don't know how I got here. But my gut tells me to leave here as quickly as possible.'
Then suddenly, a scream from outside the area came into his room, so he went to the door to see the commotion.
On the outside, a man with a white suit and top hat killed a nurse with a gun silencer. And this man smiled when he saw Jack looking at him.
Jack noticed that and closed the door super fast. After completing the door, he scanned the area to find a weapon. It did not matter to him what type of weapon.
'Shit... There is nothing here!'
There was nothing that he could lift that could protect him from the killer(s).
His second plan was to escape from the window next to his bed, but when he looked out, it was super high level from the ground: jumping from there would be suicide.
A few seconds later, the man who killed the nurse entered the room, so Jack had no choice but to fight with the man, but he had trouble luck because after one man entered, a dozen more went inside.
They all had guns with silencers and the same uniforms as the person who killed the nurse. They surround Jack.
One of the men started talking, "Are you Jack Bowsmen?"
'What should I tell him?' Jack thought, then answered, "Sir, I am not Jack Bowsmen. But I know where he is. If you follow me, I will show you."
These guys glanced into his eyes for a super long time. It made Jack uncomfortable with how long they were looking into his eyes. However, Jack acted calm because if he didn't, they would kill Jack!
'I hope this works?' After his thought, the man in the middle said, "Show us the way." They followed him briefly; many dead bodies were on the floor!
They stopped when they supposedly reached the "Jack Bowsmen" room. But, in reality, they were in different patient rooms. On the other hand, the men in white knew he was Jack Bowsmen.
They wanted to see his reaction—two white suit men blocked Jack from escaping. And he turned around, but all of the attackers surrounded him.
One of them grabbed his shoulders from behind. And the middle man grabbed a needle from a doctor who was allied with them.
Jack saw this, and he was kicking and screaming, "Let me go!" He was sweating bullets.
"Don't let him escape!" The man with the needle said while approaching Jack.
The man who grabbed Jack was so strong that whatever Jack did, he didn't budge.
"Don't come any closer, you fuckers!" They didn't care. He was yelling. End of the day, a man with a needle stabbed Jack with it, making him quiet.
"Now that's done, we should go back." The man with the needle said after returning the syringe to the doctor.
One of the men asked the group's leader, "What should we do with this monster?"
The leader replied, "You should release the monster from its cage when we leave here. Then run fast after removing it from its cage!"
Eleven men in white left the building with Jack's body; one released the monster and ran out of there later.
Rooooooaaaaaar!
This roar echoed throughout the entire building.
***
News reports of the accident happened on every news channel.
A black man with an afro and brown jacket stepped outside his car. Taking out a cigarette, after the smoke, he threw it to the ground. He stepped on it later on. He walked toward the hospital after.
Two high school girls saw this man and recognized him.
"Isn't he the A-rank investigator James Ross?" One of the girls asked her friend, who replied, "I heard, long ago, on the news that some accident happened at his home."
The other girl replied to her friend, "Oh, I remember now. Why does he still have a job?"
Ross heard the girls talking behind his back, so one of the girls noticed.
"I think he heard us. Let's go somewhere else, just in case." They left the area after that.
"Sigh, kids don't have manners these days!"
Ross thought out loud. Later, James saw his friend and work partner, Samuel Cliffhanger. His work partner had short black hair, white spiral eyes, and a wedding ring on his ring finger.
Samuel stood outside the building, waving to Ross, and James did the same thing. Then Ross said, "What happened here, Samuel?"
"Did you not hear the reports of this situation?" Samuel replied.
"Tell me the report, Samuel!" Cliffhanger said the whole thing to Ross from beginning to end.
"I understand. But why is anybody not going inside?"
Samuel replied, " Everyone is afraid to go in there because we heard a strange noise."
"If they are scared. I guess I have to investigate."
He passed through the cops, Investigators, and detectives and was about to enter, but stopped when a detective from the crowd stopped him.
"James is dangerous in there."
"I understand you guys are scared, but why are you trying to stop me?"
He stopped and continued, "Whatever. I go there alone, even if you try to stop me."
Ross was about to enter the hospital again but stopped when someone called his last name. It was Samuel.
"Ross... Ross. Wait, I'm coming— Coming with you."
"Why are you running, Samuel?" He asked.
"Because if I didn't run, you probably... You probably walked inside before for me." Samuel was exhausted from running that fast.
"I thought you were not coming when you were talking with others. If you are coming, then let's go."
Before entering, someone else stopped them by saying, "Wait, you two!"
"What do you want?" Ross said after stopping.
"Here!"
He tossed walkie-talkies and flashlights to two of them separately. Samuel caught them easily, and James failed to do so, so he pretended nothing had happened and others had done the same.
"Do you want to give us anything else before we go inside?" Ross said to the detective.
"I can't stop you when you decide, but I can help you by giving you these. If you are in trouble, communicate with us on the walkie-talkie, and we will immediately help you!"
They entered the hospital.
***
A man with binoculars was spying on Ross and Samuel at the top of a building. A white hood covered his head.
'Hmmm? Which one did the boss say to spy on?'
His phone stares ranging, picks it up and later hangs up.
"Finally, the boss gave me something interesting to do instead of a spying mission. Now then, Let The Hunting Begin!!" He licks his lips after finishing talking to himself.
Inside the hospital, darkness covered everything.
"It seems like the lights are off here, Samuel, and we need to stay together to have more firepower."
Samuel understood him, and they walked beside each other. They wanted to find an electricity room to restore the lights before trying to go to the security room. They found a map.
"The electricity room is downstairs."
Samuel was going downstairs when he heard a strange noise. Before trying to
investigate the noise. He asked Ross first.
"Ross, did you hear that? That was like someone was laughing menacingly?"
"Samuel, what are you talking about?"
"It's nothing. Let's move, Ross!" When James said that, Cliffhanger thought his mind was playing tricks on him.
In the distance, a soft clapping noise formed, making everything dark, and their flashlights died.
"Shit. It is the worst time for my flashlight battery to die. Samuel, do you have a spare?"
Samuel responded, "I don't have a spare flashlight, Ross... Mine died as well."
Ross took a walkie-talkie out of his pocket, but the sweat on his hands made it slip and fall to the ground.
Thump!
It was dark to see, so he asked his friend, "Samuel, contact others."
"We need help. Our flashlights drained themselves very fast, over."
"Roger, we are coming to help."
"Help is coming their way." Samuel said, and Ross replied, "Let's wait until they reach us."
They took out their guns. Ross and Samuel stand back to back with each other.
Outside of the hospital, the police took their weapons and flashlights before going inside the place.
The white-clothed man heaps from a building. He turned invisible after landing on the ground. He starts running toward the cops.
Without one cop's knowledge, a hand spikes this individual's neck from behind. Without anyone's understanding, they all drop dead to the floor.
The only one left was the detective who gave Ross and Samuel items.
He had bad fleeing after feeling it was too quiet behind him. There was a mountain of corpses in front of him. He panicked and fried his gun everywhere until no bullet was left. Without a glance of the enemy, he died by hand, stabbed in his throat.
"I will not let people like you disturb its prey!"
Back to James Ross and Samuel Cliffhanger. Ross heard a strange voice, and he yelled.
"Who are you? Show you're yourself!"
"Samuel, get ready to shoot!" Samuel still needs to respond.
"Did you hear me?"
Ross asked Samuel once again. Samuel was silent.
"Nice joke, now talk!" Ross was getting a little annoyed at Samuel.
"Samuel, answer me!" James gets a little worried this time, so he tries to find Samuel without seeing anything, but he can't feel him anywhere.
"What is going, uh–?!" Ross got punched in the gut and then fell to the floor.
To be continued.
