the angler got him at the last door

me and two friends queued pressure last night thinking wed just speedrun it. we did not. we got to the deep section where the lights flicker and the water sound gets louder, and my flashlight, i swear, always dies at the worst possible time. it died right as we heard an angler start to wind up its scream. we all scattered. i dove into the nearest locker and held still, watching through the slats as it drifted past so close the whole screen shook. one of my friends didnt reach a locker in time, i heard him get caught and go silent in the call. then it was just me and the last one, tiptoeing room by room, checking every corner twice. we made it to the final door on almost no health and the second we pushed it open the ambient music cut out completely and i actually stopped breathing. escaped by a hair. i sat there a full minute after just to steady my hands. no jumpscare game does that to me. pressure earns the fear the honest way.
