Red vs. Blue: Lights Out Preview

Lopez drove off out of the water flooded basement as I walked to the power box. Water spit all over me, I growled in response before turning my full attention to the switches. They wouldn't budge as I tried to turn on the power. Next to me, I suddenly noticed a mechanical, box. I picked it up to realize that a wire was connected to it and ran strait to the box.
After examining it, I came to the conclusion that it was what wasn't allow me to flip back on the power. As I was about to yank it free, I heard a man's voice, "Now, now, Simmons. No need to get hasty." Automatically, I turned in the direction. He held a hair drier that was plugged in above the water. "I'm sorry, but now, I have to kill you." as soon as he was clear of the flooded basement, I went to run, but he dropped it in.

"I… was just wondering… if you'd mind me moving into your room with you." Tex mumbled as we stood in the doorway of my room, cluttered with her things that I'd only dreamt of having in here. I walked over and hugged her.
"Welcome home." She became animated in my arms before slipping away. In normalcy, she began getting settled; I joined her shortly afterwards and joked about how we'd argue.
After changing, we laid in bed in our pajamas. This was so much better then what I'd imagined. Her warm surrounded me and vice-versa.
Rain pattering against the roof and our even breathing was all that filled the air as we listened to it. A few minutes of silence passed before I reached for the light switch. I stopped dead in my tracks. Tex waited a second. "what's wrong?" The sound I'd heard was too quiet for most ears. But it was the loading of a weapon.
I got out of bed and went to open my door. It clicked and flew open before I had a chance to do it myself. The killer stood in the doorway, a shotgun aimed at me. Tex screamed and intercepted the bullet. The force sent her into me. Her frame went limp in my arms as the murderer ran off. "Tex!? Tex!?" I laid her down on the bed, she didn't respond. It took me less then a millisecond to realize she already looked dead. "NO!! NO!!!"
