Flickering Glow

Inspired by K4 EAS's "RUN."

"息を止めて。" in Japanese. "Hold your breath." in English

It said my name. It said it again. The voice was just as indistinguishable as hers— before she died, that is. I breathed heavily, just like they said not to do. I kept my television on, in hopes another alert would show up, saying it had been eliminated. Nothing. The voice was growing louder, louder than before. I caught a glance out the window. It wasn't there anymore. There was a black glow coming from the vent. That same black glow they warned us about. The glow surrounded the room, the voice at its peak. The television flickered, displaying, “RUN.”
