It's simple. Don't analyze.
You watch the room down the hall with a mix of emotions. The glow of the exit sign's neon light attracts you like a moth to a flame, but you resist the urge to cave in. Another scream echos down the hall, and you know that it would ring in your heart with regret if you left now. So you gulp and turn around with clenched fists.
What if it's a trap? the less sentient side of you pondered, It could be the recording of their voice screaming. Is this what he meant by a 'game'? To test if I'd abandon my humanity to save myself?" You chuckled at the mere thought. "How naive. I'll take your bait, then. Better safe than sorry," you muttered, smirking at the camera before frowning. Besides, if they're really in there, then it must be serious for them to be screaming that much.
You almost run to the door, but then remember how easy it was for you to escape from the ropes. Knowing that person, they wouldn't have had any problems doing the same. You let out a shaky sigh in relief and wipe the sweat beads from your glimmering forehead. That's it. They must be...!
After some hesitation, you return your gaze to the exit and ran for it just as another cry penetrates your ears. You shake your head and keep running.
