"Hello? Hello?" Ethan called out, his voice strained with urgency, but there was no response on the other end. "Evelyn, Evelyn, can you hear me? Answer me!" Hu face was stormy as he gripped the car keys and hunted out.

"There are two of them, Ethan." I glanced around, trying to keep my tone steady despite the quiver in my voice. "I don't know where I am, but it feels like sabandoned factory.
