Jill stared wide-eyed at the empty hallway, gripping the counter tightly with her hands as a chill ran up her spine. The urge to run made her feet twitch but her fear held her in place. “Obviously you haven’t watched enough zombie movies…” she said softly, still in a state of disbelief. Surely this must be a bad dream induced by too much spicy food late at night? Jill quickly pinched her arm and gasped at the sudden pain. So much for that theory…

Suddenly noticing that Jack had abandoned her at the desk, Jill quickly jumped down and tried to casually follow him to the door. That sort of failed however as her pace quickened to an urgent shuffle as she neared the door. Feeling like something was following her, Jill whipped around but there was nothing behind her. “Of course not dear…” she said, too scared to pick on Jack for his paranoia.

Following Jack out the door, which thankfully didn’t implode on them, Jill shivered slightly despite the blanket around her shoulders. The wind had picked up with the rain and it seemed even darker than before with the light of the windows only extending a few feet further than the porch. “Wandering around in dark woods in the middle of the night with who knows what out there waiting for us only armed with a semi working flashlight, an umbrella, a cane, and some sort of fake chocolate food that’s chock full of artificial preservatives? Of course I’m not ready for this!” Jill quipped. Grabbing hold of Jack’s free hand, she held onto it for dear life least they get separated again, “Let’s get the hell out of here,” she said finally, contrary to her previous statement.
