Not unless something is very wrong. I waited. Counted slowly in my head. Then I stepped out again. But this time… I didn’t go deeper. I turned back.

Slowly, she reached out, her fingers trembling as they made contact with the corrupted flesh. A shiver ran down her spine as a maggot wriggled out, sending her heart racing with horror.

My fingers examined the fine-textured white substance. It smelled of old perfume and...gasoline? The odd scent only boggled me more. "What are you?" I whispered. Was it just some powdered chemical to keep the bugs out?
