Station Omega
A faint metallic creak catches your attention, drawing your gaze to a maintenance hatch slightly ajar on the corridor wall. With cautious movements, you crouch down, gripping your pistol tightly, and push the hatch open wider to reveal a shadowy passage accompanied by the soft hiss of venting air.With survival instincts kicking in, you retreat to the armory, slamming your palm against the control panel to lock the door. Taking a defensive position behind a rack of weapons, you steady your aim at the entrance, waiting for the faintest sound of pursuit.With your weapon firmly in hand, you inch forward through the dim corridor, your every step echoing faintly in the oppressive silence. The sporadic flicker of the emergency lights throws disorienting shapes on the walls, but you keep your focus sharp, your pistol aimed and prepared for the unknown presence ahead.The pressure becomes unbearable as you raise your weapon toward the direction of the suspected motion. You squeeze the trigger, the sharp report of the shot momentarily cutting through the oppressive silence as you strain to detect any reaction from the shadows.
