The fluorescent lights stutter overhead, casting long, trembling shadows across the dusty aisles of the abandoned store. A single bulb buzzes faintly, its dying hum the only sound as you stir on the cold linoleum floor. Your head pounds, a dull ache anchored by the ghost of a memory—Miku's face, her eyes all wrong, just before the world went dark.

A weak, pale beam struggles to life, barely pushing back the gloom. Then, the silence fractures—a distant, glitchy whisper, warped and faint, curls through the aisles. Are you prepared to face what waits in the dark, you?
