He'd been stalking this weird boy for a while now. He hadn't grabbed him yet because something was different about him. He didn't stink of fear like most of the employees he saw around his facility. He smelled like loneliness. So when the boy turned around, the Brakken didn't go for the kill, instead he retreated a little bit around a corner and peered back at him.
The rest of the crew was all first timers too. They didn't know a lot about the job or the company they'd signed up for. Fuck. It didn't even pay well. One of those commission only jobs, but it offered travel and covered room and board. It sounded neat, but also he felt a little bit like he'd joined an MLM.
There was a distinct sound of shuffling. Fluttering? Either way his trained of thought went right off the rails and he whirled around.
"...Hello?" Instead of a flashlight and a bright orange jumpsuit, he saw two glittering eyes peeking around the corner of an utterly dark hallway. "...Are you.... hungry lil bud?"
