Revenge After Death

"15..." The eerie voice continued its countdown, mechanical and unsettlingly eerie. Suddenly, Carol went berserk, staring at the end of the hallway in terror. "Simmy..."

She broke free from Quinn's grip, running uncontrollably toward the end of the hallway. Joel was stunned. Then, he chased after Carol without much thought.
