Thankfully, the cupboard seems quite grueless.

Just as you are beginning to feel safe, You hear the footsteps of someone running down the corridor towards you. Conundrum-chan runs into you and slams the door behind you. The two of you are plunged into darkness. She clings to you, shaking. You manage to make out a few words from her. "People outside... soldiers... carrying guns..."

She suddenly falls silent. You can hear slow, heavy footsteps outside the cupboard door.
