THE LONG, DARK, COLD CORRIDOR.
"Nng, eh?" you opened your eyes, lying on your back, on the floor and staring at your ceiling. No, wait... a ceiling. You instantly shot up, scanning your current surroundings. You were in a small room with very dim lighting. There was a small white bed with a table next to it on one side of the room, and a closet and a door that had an ExiT sign painted onto it on the other. "Where the hell am I...?" you mumbled to yourself, standing up and making your way over to the ExiT door. Your face lit up as you neared it, happy to be able to get out of here.
However, your joyous smiled quickly faded when you tried the door's handle, only to find it locked. Then you heard a voice echo through the room. "I need a heart in order to open it!"it laughed, causing you to shiver. 'A heart?' you repeated in your mind, disgusted at the mental image of a key carved out of a human heart. You decided it would be in your best interest to do a thorough inspection of the small space. The first thing you did was try opening the closet, only to find it locked as well. "Well, then." You huffed, heading to the opposite side of the room. You checked on the tabletop, in the bed and then under the table. "Aha!" you said triumphantly, reaching under and grabbing a small key. You ran back over to the closet and tried opening it again. It worked, but your face paled as you looked inside to see it empty, aside from the red substance dripping down the wall.
"It's... it's just paint. Someone was just painting the walls and it dripped down into the closet." You told yourself, trying to convince you currently freaked-out brain that it was paint, not blood. 'But the walls are white, not red, y/n.' you thought back. "Augh! Then someone started painting the closet!" you tried again. 'There's no point in painting the inside of a closet. No one would see it.' You reminded yourself. "AUGH! STOP THAT!" you scolded your thoughts, freezing when you heard a sound coming from the bed-and-table side of the room.
Slowly, you approached the area of which the noise came from. "That was not there before." You stated, peering into a hallway that had suddenly appeared. It was long, dark, and kind of cold. You tried the ExiT door once again, but the same "I need a heart in order to open it!" message sounded throughout the room. Sighing, you walked back on over to the dark, cold hallway. 'This is it...' you thought, swallowing down the lump of fear and uncertainty in your throat and took a step into the corridor.
