All she wanted now was to escape the increasingly oppressive atmosphere of the room. Each moment she stayed, the ordeal grew more unbearable.
Attempting to stand, Sadie felt her body sway unstably. She gripped the table for support, her strength waning and her head spinning wildly. The drug in her system was taking effect.
Panic set in, and she knew she needed to leave immediately.

The sound of shattering glass echoed loudly as the man screamed, blood pouring from a wound on his forehead.

Carefully, he lifted her into his arms and hurried away from the disarray. Sadie rested her head against his shoulder, feeling dizzy yet immensely comforted by his presence.
Back inside the karaoke bar's private room, chaos continued. Shattered bottles, spilled drinks, and the pungent mix of alcohol and blood permeated the air. Several men held their heads, groaning, their faces drained of color.
