Chapter 17: Deeper

Lucas continued to move deeper into the broken building, his heart pounding in his chest. He felt like he was being pulled towards something, something that was calling to him from the depths of the darkness. The noises grew louder and more intense, and he could hear the sounds of shuffling feet and ghostly whispers all around him. The walls seemed to be closing in, and the darkness was growing thicker, making it harder for him to see where he was going.

He felt the weight of the haunted building pressing down on him, and the feeling of dread was growing stronger. The strange noises echoed all around him, and the cold chill was permeating his bones. Lucas could sense that he was not alone in the dark, and he could feel the eyes of malevolent spirits upon him.

As he pushed forward, Lucas heard the sound of a woman's voice, calling out to him from the depths of the tunnel. He couldn't make out what she was saying, but her voice was filled with desperation and fear. He felt the urge to help her, to find her, and bring her to safety. He moved towards the sound, ignoring the feeling of dread that was growing stronger with every step.

Suddenly, Lucas heard footsteps behind him, and he spun around, his claws at the ready. But there was no one there, only the sound of ghostly whispers echoing through the darkness. He turned back around again, and he saw the silhouette of a woman in a red dress, her hair covering her face. She was calling out to him, her voice filled with fear.
