The shaking became so intense that One lost her balance and fell off the stool she was standing on by the bookshelf. Steve tried to get to her to check on her but had troubles staying upright and knocked into several pieces of furniture along the way.
After One had assessed herself to make sure she was still in one piece, she looked up to the top shelf and was disappointed to see that the portal was gone.
"Are you okay?" Steve called out from the spot where he had fallen halfway across the living room.
"Yeah, I'm fine," One answered. Her voice sounded like she was talking into a fan.

The howling of wolves accompanied by musical beats entered their ears as Thriller by Michael Jackson blasted through the space and nearly deafened the two. One and Steve threw their hands over their ears but the music didn't get any quieter.

♫ You try to scream but terror takes the sound before you make it... ♪
