Luke’s cousins were coming over, so he had a dinner to plan. Unfortunately, there was no food in his house. He quickly ran to the supermarket, searching for something to serve.

As he got there, he grabbed some cans of soup, some vegetables and something to drink. He checked out and started to prepare dinner at his house. The food smelled delicious, but when Luke tasted the soup, he noticed something white on it. He got a spoon and removed it from the meal. It was an envelope.

When Luke looked more carefully at it and saw a note written with lipstick. It said: “Help! Stuck in the deposit.” He observed it for a while and reached the conclusion that it was a prank, but his fear was so big that he cancelled dinner with his cousins and went straight to bed.

Luke tried to sleep for hours but he couldn’t. The note was still in his head, so he decided to see if it was a prank or not. He got in his car and drove to the supermarket. The doors were locked, but he got a paperclip and with a bit of effort opened the doors.

He ran to the deposit and inside there was a woman tied up with a rope on a chair. He quickly started to untie her, but his hands were shaking with fear. Luke finally set the woman free and they rushed to the exit. They were almost there, only ten steps. He felt something behind him and turned around, but before he could think his head was hit with something and everything turned black.
