the "There is Someone Else Here" meme

Rules: 

Roll the RNG 1-20 and choose a location.  
Post with your character and the number.  
Your character is now in that location and must believe or at least suspect that they are completely alone.
Tag someone with your character; your character is now in that location with theirs.  
The second character may believe they are alone, or they may not.  Maybe they are looking for the first character, or maybe they are coming after them.  Maybe it's just a chance meeting.
Malicious intent/violence is not mandatory, but possible.
 

 

1)  At home, alone.  

2)  A forest/wood.  It could be day or night.

3)  A bad part of town, at night.  There is nobody around, and very few street lights.

4)  A school.  Nobody should be here at this hour.

5)  A dilapidated, old hotel.  You're stuck, and need a place to stay, but nobody is at the front desk.

6)  A hospital.  Any kind, and you are trying to leave.

7)  Your car has broken down on a long, deserted road.  It is night.

8)  An abandoned farm.  There is an old barn, a ruined house, and a scarecrow stuck in a cornfield that goes for miles.  

9)  A theme park, complete with circus and house of mirrors.

10)  A morgue.

11)  A castle.  Nobody comes here anymore, and you don't think anybody lives here.

12)  A wharf.  There are old warehouses around you, and it's too foggy to see more than several feet ahead.

13)  A dark cave.  You might have a small light, or not.  The rock walls are sharp, and you can hear something in the distance, maybe running water, maybe something else.

14)  An abandoned lighthouse.  The lamp doesn't work anymore.

15)  Shipwrecked on a very small, rocky island.  The tide is coming in, and you'll be stuck very soon.

16)  A larger boat, maybe even a yacht.  The smell of salt is from the sea surrounding you.

17)  A completely black room.  It's impossible to see a thing, and you can't even feel the walls.

18)  A maze.  Whether it's hedges or rooms, you are completely lost and nobody is there to help you.

19)  A research station.  Whether it's the Amazon, the Sahara, or the Arctic, it is not an easy place to reach.

20)  Space.  Whether a craft of your own, or a space station, you are very alone.

[In the light, he seems to find something familiar about her.]

...I probably will be, too.

[ She looks slightly guilty about that, about having to make him wait because of her, but sits on the floor nevertheless and unrolls the scroll in front of her. ]

I apologize for having to make you stay behind. I will try and finish here as soon as possible.

These used to all be in my room, but it seems somebody has transferred them to the library...

[ That was seventy years ago, Mito, what are you talking about? ]

[dolphin_rant]

...all in your room...?

[But how could that be? These books were here since he was a child.]

You don't look that much older than myself...

[madame_tranquility]

Mm. [ Dramatic pause ] I wrote them.

[ She goes back to her reading, seated there with her legs folded under her, all prim and proper. ]

No, I suppose not, unless twenty five is very old. I would hope not...

[dolphin_rant]

[PIME... TARADOX...]

W---what... you said you wrote them... but you're...

[SENSE. NOT. BEING. MADE.]

[madame_tranquility]

[ See this face? It is as stoic as ever. ]

I am quite certain this is my signature here at the end of this essay, and this is most certainly my handwriting.

[ The signature reads Uzumaki Mito, and dates the document some seventy five something years ago. |8 ]
