"Huh?" A boy opened his eyes, finding his memories lost and goals forgotten.

He got up from the bed he found himself on and looked at his surroundings, blood red walls and red wood floor, nothing he could recognize, making him panic.

"Where am I? What is this place? Who- Who am I?" He grabbed his head with his hands and felt a throbbing headache assaulted his mind.

"Argh!" He gripped his hair with both hands and took a deep breath. "Calm down, I have to calm down."

He concentrated on breathing to deal with his emotions, slowly in and out. He opened his eyes and looked around, "Whew... Let's see, first I need to figure out where I am." He glanced at the window and found that it was barricaded by bloodied bones, the sight of it sent a shiver down his spine.

He took a deep breath once more and turned to the door, as he was hesitating on whenever he should try to open the door or not. The door handle suddenly rattled, he almost screamed but he managed to cover his mouth in time.

Tears formed at the corner of his eyes as the door handle slowly turned, something was opening the door from outside, he felt an urge to gulp his saliva just from hearing the sounds of it, the heavy and unnatural breathing from the other side of the door.

He turned around and frantically searched for anything to block the door with, his futile efforts were rewarded with nothing. The creature on the other side banged on the door repeatedly, heavily breathing and screeching hungrily, the door then slowly opened. He stared without blinking at the doorway, terror filled his entire body and mind.

Creakkkk

The door creaked as it came to a stop, he gritted his teeth and squeezed his hands into fists, he moved as slow as a sloth towards the door and took a look at what's outside the door. He stared in confusion as he found that there was nothing there, he sighed in relief.

The bed behind him creaked and he felt a shiver down his spine, he slowly turned to look behind him with a face filled with terror, he stared at the empty bed. He felt a drop of a weird liquid dripped on his hand, he raised his hand to take a look and froze as he saw a drop of blood splattered on his hand. His limbs shook and he looked up.

Blood.

Blood covered the ceiling, blood filled his vision, and blood flowed down his headless body...
