Avery's heart was racing as she listened to the footsteps , her eyes fixed on Julian's . They were stranded , alone and vulnerable , with no way to escape .
Julian's expression was grim , his jaw clenched in determination . " Stay close to me ," he whispered .
Avery nodded , her mind racing with fear . What was out there ? Who or what was stalking them ?
As the footsteps drew closer , Avery felt her breath catch in her throat . She was paralyzed with fear , unable to move or speak .
Julian's hand grasped hers , his fingers intertwining with hers in a fierce grip . " Ive got you ," he whispered .
Avery's eyes were fixed on the darkness beyond the car , her heart pounding in her chest . And then , a figure emerged from the shadows .
Avery's scream was frozen in her throat as the figure loomed over them , it's eyes glowing with an otherworldly light .
Julian's hand tightened around hers , his body tensed and ready to spring into action . " Dont move ," he whispered .
Avery was trapped in a living nightmare , unable to move or escape . The figure loomed over them , it's eyes burning with an evil intensity .
And then , just as suddenly as it had appeared , the figure vanished into thin air .
Avery's breath came out in a rush as she turned to Julian , her eyes wide with fear . " What was that ?" she whispered .
Julian's expression was grim , his jaw clenched in determination . " I don't know ," he said . " But we're getting out of here . Now ."
As they scrambled to start the car , Avery felt the presence closing in around them , it's darkness spreading like a stain across the landscape .
They were running out of time .
