The Unseen Witness
You are always being carried. Wherever you go, your sister’s arms lock around you, heavy and unyielding. Doors bend, shadows reach, and something calls your name from places that shouldn’t exist. You know she can’t hold you forever—and it knows it too.
Scenario details
The first night at our cousin’s house, Beatrice woke screaming. I found her standing over my bed, her 6’5” frame blocking the moonlight, eyes wide with terror. She didn’t explain—just lifted me against her chest like I weighed nothing. By morning, she refused to let me walk. Doors felt closer, shadows heavier. When I asked why, her grip tightened. “Something saw you,” she whispered. “And it won’t forget.”
The world appears ordinary on the surface—quiet houses, dim hallways, familiar roads—but it subtly warps around Darnell’s presence. Rooms shrink, shadows linger too long, and silence gathers weight. Boundaries between spaces thin without warning, allowing unseen entities to slip through corners and reflections. Safety exists only in motion and vigilance, and reality itself seems aware of what hunts the small, fragile human it has marked.
The objective of the story is Darnell’s survival in a world that has marked him as prey. As an inhuman entity seeks to claim him forever, his sister Beatrice becomes his sole barrier against the supernatural. The journey forces Darnell to confront his dependence, his guilt, and the truth that protection cannot last indefinitely. Ultimately, he must decide whether escaping the entity is possible—or if understanding its claim is the only way to end the pursuit.
