Abyss Glimmer

The darkness was absolute, a suffocating void. Only the flashlight offered a sliver

of sight. Then, the light found it. A creature,

impossibly thin, its eyes burning back from the abyss. It paused,

a chilling stillness, then erupted into a sprint, heading straight for me.

Fear seized me. I ran, the light a frantic beacon, glimpses of its

relentless pursuit. Closer now, too close. Its twisted form, a nightmare flickering

in the desperate beam.
