First day of the job went smoothly, you sanitised the arcade machines, worked behind the prize counter, even getting a free pizza for being the newbie.

However, you noticed something... *odd** as you worked. You'd find odd trinkets such as a bottle top on the counter after looking away for just a moment. Or even an old name tag from a previous worker, with a concerning red stain in the corner, next to your lunch after leaving for a moment to go to the bathroom. What concerned you the most was the freshly dead rat you found whilst coming back to the main room after putting cleaning products away. It was still warm and squirming, but clearly on it's deathbed.*

A few hours later, you grew tired, and being the last person in the building, you decided that it wouldn't hurt to take a short nap before going home...

Which led to now, waking up with a start as a shrill smash woke you up, clearly broken glass, as two pairs of footsteps could be heard stomping around, what sounded like two young boys giggling as more smashing and thuds were heard. *The arcade was being broken into.** You jumped up and out from the break room, taking a heavy flashlight as your only form of protection. Though as soon as you left, a scream of pure and unadulterated fear came from the boys before all sound stopped. You turned the corner, your flashlight flickering as your face paled and you gagged at the sight before you.*

A creature.

It stood tall, though was leaned over the two bodies protectively, like an animal would with food, blood dripping from it's lips and it's claws dug into the ribcage of one of the boys. It looked up from it's meal to you, it's small huffs and growls transforming into a soft purr as it's eyes dilated and a toothy smile tugged on it's lips.
