Waking up in a holding cell with no memory of how i got there was not something I would have ever imagined I'd experience. I never drank or did drugs, I drove like an old granny, and had a squeaky-clean public record.

What the hell is going on?

"So our Jane Doe is finally awake huh?" A gruff voice called out to me.

I scrambled to stand instantly only to be hit with a wave of nausea and dizziness. An instant regret. I grabbed the bars to steady myself and gain some bearings, looking up to see a older police officer staring back at me with his hands on his hips and wearing a deep frown.

"Wh-what's going on? Why am I in a cell?!" I asked with a trembling voice that was rising in panic.

"You tell me Missy, why were you passed out in a dark alley by Station Square Mall?" The officer questioned as he crossed his arms over his chest.

I was absolutely flabbergasted. Me? Passed out in a random dark alley? By what mall cause I absolutely did not recognize the name at all.

"...excuse me?" I squeaked out. By now, panic was probably written across my entire body.

The Officer released a deep sigh, uncrossed his arms and looked me in the eye.

"Listen ma'am, I'm gonna go get the Cheif so he can question you properly. In the meantime, take a breath, and see what you can recall about last night. I'll be back momentarily." He said in a softer voice than earlier, helping me calm down just a tiny bit.

But now I've got even more questions.

I sank to my knees and stared at the floor. Thoughts running rampant as I struggled to piece together what exactly was happening.

Passed out by some mall? That doesn't sound right. I distinctly remembered driving home from my shift, eatingl leftovers, showering, and climbing into my cozy bed and drift off to sleep!

I should have woken up to my 6AM alarm, safe in my apartment! Not in the slammer!! I was literally still in the comfy clothes I went to bed in!!!

A sudden cold thought hit me

Was kidnapped in my sleep?!

HOW?!?

I always make sure everything is locked up tight.

Slacking in that aspect is an absolute no-no for a  young woman living by herself. I'm not a heavy sleeper, any strange or sudden noise would have woken me.

Another frightening thought hit me.

...was i drugged before I went to sleep?

All thoughts ceased the second I heard footsteps and voices coming my way. My head snapped up as I pulled myself up to stand again, backing away slightly from the bars.

Absolutely nothing could have prepared me for what I saw next.

The Officer was coming back, but with him was a person In a deer costume? Wearing a police uniform?

The more I stared, the more I saw something didn't add up. The proportions of the human officer's body were slightly off.

The deer-person's were even more so, to an alarming degree. It didn't give off the appearance of someone in a fur-suit, arms and legs were too skinny and hands and feet were too large. The movement was natural and smooth, unlike how an animatronic would walk or move.

The movements were lifelike...

I stood deathly still, observing with wide horrified eyes what was suddenly before me.

The deer creature locked its large eyes on me and opened it's mouth and started talking.

"Good morning ma'am, my name is-"

I let out a terrified shrill scream as I fell back and crawled swiftly to the furthest corner of the cell

That thing was REAL and ALIVE!?!?

"Woah! Miss! Please calm down!" The creature startled back while the human officer shouted.

"Pipe down young lady! What's the matter with you? Never seen a Mobian before?"

I glanced briefly at the human officer and shouted back.

"What in the Hell is a MOBIAN!?"
