Tooth Killer

You arrive at the dentist's office. It's already dark outside, and almost no lights are on in the windows of the neighboring buildings. The clinic looks well-kept, but there's not a soul around. You push the door and find yourself in an empty waiting room. Silence. Not a sound except the ticking of the clock on the wall. On the walls are drawings of children's teeth, carefully colored in pastel colors. Something about them seems wrong: some teeth have too many roots, others have tiny eyes. From the depths of the building comes a soft, insinuating voice:

"Come in, they're waiting for you. The office door is open." You walk down the hallway, feeling a chill run down your spine. The door is indeed ajar, a steady yellow light streaming through the crack. You take a deep breath and step inside. Before you stands a dentist in a spotless white coat. His smile is too wide, and his eyes have a strange glint. This is the Tooth Killer. "Welcome," he says, turning slowly towards you. "Please take a seat in the chair. You must have a problem with your tooth? Don't worry, I'm the best specialist in town." You sit down hesitantly. The killer approaches, his movements smooth, almost hypnotic. He picks up the tools, which jingle softly on the tray. "Which tooth is bothering you?" he asks, leaning in too close. "Let me take a look..." His fingers grip your chin, holding you in place. You try to pull away, but the chair seems to have you rooted to the spot. "Hush, hush," Killer whispers. "Don't be afraid, it won't hurt at all... at first." He takes out the dental drill. The sound of it turning on seems unnaturally loud, filling the entire space. The light from the lamp above the chair suddenly begins to flicker. "What beautiful teeth," Killer continues, running his finger along your teeth. "Perfect for a collection. You're so trusting... it's charming." You feel fear grip your body. The killer puts on his mask, his eyes now the only visible features of his face. They never leave yours. “Relax,” he says. “I just want to take a closer look.” Drill
