WHO: Greed & Zoe with a cameo by Andras!
WHEN: Tuesday night
WHERE: Columbia University, Library
WHAT: Something wicked this way comes..
WARNING: TBD
Andras walked across campus, a large black wolf walking by his side. It was late so most of the place had cleared out. He hadn't really looked at what Satan had briefly mentioned to someone, he'd just heard secondhand and skimmed whatever it was. Something about a Greek bothering one of the sins and blah blah blah. He just needed to fill his quota. He didn't know where the Greek was but remembered somehow her TA had been involved and one was as good as the other in his books.
The wolf promptly sat down as Andras went into the big and brightly lit library, clocking Zoe in the back studying by herself, a row of large windows behind her.
Zoe had to focus on work, school, TAing, and the apartment, Gabe had gone upstate for an audition, he wouldn't be back for another day or two. Her thoughts occasionally drifted to Greed but there was too much to do to let them linger on him. It was better if she didn't. She didn't notice the eerie quiet that filled the library. Libraries were supposed to be quiet but not like this. You couldn't even hear another person breathing. But Zoe just worked away until she heard a door shut and then suddenly all the lights went out. Fear jumped into her stomach and she froze, waiting... but they didn't come back on. She willed herself to get up and call out but the librarian didn't respond.
Andras stood outside and yawned while Zoe made her way to the front of the library, bewildered at how no one was there. That fear was clawing at her gut started scratching, wanting to be let out so she could panic. But she had to be brave, okay, come on. She opened the front door and her eyes went wide in terror, a scream dying in her throat as Andras' big black wolf jumped out from the shadows and barked at her, giant claws slashing at her as she quickly fell back in and hurled the door shut. The wolf's large paws slammed against the door, pounding hard trying to get in. Zoe wanted to faint with terror as she moved backwards on the ground and then scrambled to her feet, reaching into her pocket for her phone.
She was breathing hard as she looked at the door, a nasty sounding howl making her retreat further into the library. What was she going to do? Call Gabe? Ask him to drive all the way back because she was stuck in a horror movie? She looked around and then down at the number on her phone her thumb was hovering over and as another ear piercing howl sliced the quiet air, she made the call.
