"So, you've finally woken up… Zero…" The voice boomed, deep and demonic, echoing off the rusted bars of the cage like it was coming from everywhere and nowhere. The red and pink neon lights pulsed around me, flickering wild, throwing creepy shadows across the cold metal floor. The air felt thick, heavy with that weird vibe, like the whole place was alive and watching.
I leaned back against the bars, sitting up straighter, trying to shake off the ache in my body.
"Sighhh…" I let out, rolling my eyes as I forced a bored tone. "You done with your stage show, buddy?" I said, keeping it cool, my voice steady even though my gut was churning. "Talking from behind somewhere ain't exactly going hard, you know?" I tilted my head, smirking toward the darkness where the voice was hiding, acting like I didn't give a damn.
