Chapter 8 - House of the truth

Sean runs out of the place while looking back and hears Goldberg scream followed by the roar of the creature. He runs through the forest trying to get away from it.

He finally makes it to a lonely road, turning to see the creature rushing towards him. He turns around and starts to run. His clothes are torn and wet, and his hair sticks to his forehead. He runs as fast as he can. The creature behind him is gaining speed.

Sean looks behind and sees nothing.

he thinks as he continues running until he stops when suddenly there is a sharp pain in the center of his chest. He gasps, feeling as if someone is tearing out his lungs. He falls to the ground, screaming in pain. The pain goes away for a second and his vision clears. His eyes widen in horror as he realizes that he is lying in a pool of blood. He doesn't even know where the blood came from or how much has been lost by the creature. Blood covers both him and the road he is lying on.

Slowly he lifts himself and sees another pool of blood near him. This time, however, he isn’t surprised. He closes his eyes as he takes deep breaths. Finally, he manages to stand up without falling back to the ground. He continues walking.

Ahead of him, a bright light comes from the darkness. When he comes closer, the light disappears leaving behind an old house. Its walls are covered in graffiti and its door is broken. Inside it is filled with dust, cobwebs, and old furniture. Sean walks inside, closing the door softly behind him. It's dark and empty; only the light from the moon shines through a small window that sits in between two doors.

The sound of the echoes of his footstepststepsotstepss throughout the house. He starts searching for anything that would indicate he wasn't alone. He keeps walking until he reaches a hallway. He walks down the hall, looking for any sign of another living human. He walks down the stairs until he hears something.

It's noise; the sound of breathing. He walks through the hallway till he finds himself standing in front of a big wooden door.

The wood is scratched from age, the paint chipped, and the metal tarnished. The handle is broken and the door won't open no matter what he tries. There is also a strange symbol that he doesn't recognize engraved on the wood.

Sean slowly pushes the door open and looks into the dark room. He steps inside slowly.

Suddenly his senses become hypersensitive. He listens carefully to the quiet breathing. Slowly he takes another step forward. Then he hears it again. It sounds like someone breathing. He looks into the darkness and tries to see who it is. But he can’t make any out.

He slowly turns around and begins walking out of the room. His heart starts racing with panic as he realizes there is something behind him. It's silent except for Sean's heavy breathing and the sound of his boots
