You’re an assistant surgeon.
The lead surgeon makes an incision. The patient dies instantly.
During de-prep, the lights flicker.
A low hum drowns out the hospital noise.
A child stands where there shouldn’t be one.
Unblinking. Watching.
“This was a sacrifice. All five of you in that room were all part of a ritual.”

Something latches onto you.
You feel it. It’s alive.

“Pass it on… or suffer,” the child offers.
Before you can respond, images cut in and out of your vision.
Scenes. Pictures. Feelings.

You see them.
Your family. Your friends.
Their children. Their children’s children.

Endless.

Owned. Used. Consumed.
Again.

And again.
And again.

… by something

Then silence.

The child tilts its head.

“You have 48 hours.”

Do you pass it on…
or let everyone you love suffer multiple life times?
