Again, this is really short because I want people to continue it however they want.

TW: Fear, darkness, chasing

~Third Person POV ~

Virgil ran down the darkened hall, dragging Thomas behind him. He could hear footsteps behind them, and Thomas was panting. There was screaming somewhere, but Virgil wasn't sure if he was imagining it.

He crashed into a wall, and he screamed slightly. The footsteps quickly got louder, closer, and faster. Thomas helped him up hurriedly and they dashed one of the hallways, sliding slightly in their socks. The footsteps seemed to fade away a bit, as if going down the other path, but Virgil knew he couldn't trust that to be true.

A few minutes later, Virgil saw the door seconds too late and slammed into it just as he had the wall from before. Footsteps, getting up, running. They were slower this time, feeling the wall for doors, until they heard the one Virgil had been at squeak open.

They opened the door right next to them, sacrificing the quick for quiet, and slipped in. Once the door was closed behind them they pressed themselves to the nearest wall and waited.

A door closed, and footsteps slowly continued down the hall, towards them. Virgil stifled a gasp as they stopped near them, and didn't breathe again until they continued down and faded.

Thomas was safe, for now. That's all that matters.

Okay, this was a hard choice. But here:

As I said, my followers/anyone who sees this can continue it, I just tagged someone who most likely won't.

Thanks for reading!
