Tina felt a chill run down her spine. Something was seriously wrong. The howl was more than just noise; it was a deep cry of fear and sadness that echoed around them, leaving everything quiet afterward. Standing there, amidst the musty smell of the storage room and the distant sounds of activity, Tina realized there was more going on than she initially thought.

They scanned the room quickly, their eyes alert and focused, ensuring no one was in immediate danger. “Everyone, please stay calm!” one officer announced, his voice authoritative yet reassuring, cutting through the tension in the air.
