You have no idea why it is here, but the key the reporter wanted you to use is on the ground. You have a hunch that it was a wise decision to not go along with his plan, something tells you the worst already happened, and now all you are left with is a pesky girl who can’t stop crying. If she’s anything like your sister, it’s not going to be difficult to calm her down. Or to tell her to be quiet. You got experience with that too.
Anyway, you grab the rusty key and give it a good look. Your dad gave you a copy of your apartment’s, so if you ever wondered if the keys in this old building are anything special, it’s sad to say that they are not. Just a regular key just like yours with a faded out logo you cannot make out. This means it was cheaply made. Not that it surprises you. Enough milking information out of the stupid key, you gotta use it.
The key doesn’t fit the hole. No, there’s something in it blocking the key from entering. You shake the doorknob to loosen the dirt inside and pray for a miracle, some of it falls. You put the key in again with some force. It fits now. You unlock the door…
Was this little piece of dirt enough to deter the journalist? You don’t think so, something else must’ve happened. No time to speculate, you need to investigate the interior.
You slowly open it, the door screeches, it needs oil. The crying stopped. There’s nothing inside aside from dirt and empty boxes as far as you can tell with the moonlight’s help. You thought your apartment was dilapidated, but this is much worse. If you didn’t live on the other side of the building, you would think this entire place was abandoned.
You hear a squeaky sound. No, it’s not a rat. It’s rather sharp, metallic even. It’s coming from the corner of this very room…

>“I’m just here to tell the person crying to stop, uh, crying. I’m trying to sleep. That’s it.” Deliver your message and leave.
>“Is somebody there? Hello?” Act like you’re in a horror movie.
>“IS THERE A RAT OVER THERE?!” You were wrong, it must be a rat!
