Order of the Elements

Agent 084 stood in front of the final door on the upper floor of the barnhouse.

"Kuhh-kkrgh!"

He coughed violently, blood spilling from his mouth as the jagged bone remained impaled straight through his chest.

Behind him, Agents 049, 111, and 139 froze – all three staring with wide eyes, stunned and horrified.

"A-Agent 084?" Agent 049 muttered, barely able to speak.

Then–

Slllllk...

The bone slid out of Agent 084's body with a sickening sound, retreating through the locked door from where it had come.

Agent 084 stumbled forward.

Thud.

He collapsed to the floor – his chest soaked in blood, his mouth dripping with red as more leaked out with each shallow breath.
