A Shadow

Just another morning. You thought at least. But you already feel the atmosphere is different this day, the coffee tastes bitter, and the clouded sky outside will not let the dawn happen in its usual way. You go off to work, slam the door behind you and step down the stairs, as you hear a voice behind you. "Oh hello", a soft-spoken female voice but with a dangerous undertone, which makes you stop breathing for a moment. You turn and see a scene that freezes your blood in your veins. The walls are drenched in blood, the stairwell is much darker than before, as if you stepped into another, nightmarish world beyond your own. On the stairs sits a female figure, torn and frayed out with tousled hair. Her red glowing eyes stare at you.
