💔 ENDING (CLIFFHANGER STYLE)

The doors of the ER slowly opened by themselves.
The nurse turned.
The stepdad was gone.
The hallway lights went out one by one.
And in the dark—
a voice came through the hospital speakers:
“Subject is active.
Containment failure confirmed.
Retrieve the child immediately.”
Toby looked at the nurse.
And for the first time—
he smiled slightly.
Not like a child.
May you like
But like someone remembering what he was built for.
CUT TO BLACK.
