Adam hated night shifts.
Nothing ever happened in the old warehouse where he worked. Just silence… and sometimes the sound of stray cats fighting outside.
He looked at his phone.
4:47 AM
"Three more hours…" he muttered.
The cold air made him pull his jacket tighter. He walked outside to stretch his legs.
The street was empty.
Then something strange caught his eye.
A small blue light floating in the air.
Adam blinked.
"Okay… that's new."
The light grew bigger. Slowly turning into something like a circle… spinning quietly.
Adam felt a chill down his back.
"Yeah… I should probably go back inside."
But before he moved, a deep growl came from inside the circle.
Adam froze.
A message suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.
[Candidate detected.]
"…What?"
