REDUCED TO RUIN

The cool November air bites at your skin as you rush across the apartment complex parking lot, heels clicking on the asphalt. Late for a court hearing, you yearn for the comfort of sneakers. A white van, illegally parked, catches your eye. Just as you reach your car, the van's engine roars to life.
The side door slides open, revealing a massive figure. Panic surges. You fumble for your keys, a strangled scream escaping your lips as the man lunges. He grabs you, lifting you effortlessly despite your struggles. Another man appears at the van's entrance.
"Don't let the perpetrator take you to a second location," a chilling piece of advice echoes in your mind as you're pulled towards the van. Your legs are grabbed, and you're loaded inside as the world goes black.
