From Create Your Own Story

With one hand already free, the knot holding your other wrist falls apart easily. You pick and pull at the knots holding your feet. Across the room from you, the mysterious naked woman lies on the floor clutching at her breast and moaning. The fire from the runes on the ground begins to rise higher and higher. Just as you finally get your ankles free the ground at the center of the circle where you sit begins to warp and ripple. Two large, clawed hands reach out of the cement near the edge of the circle and grab onto the flaming magic ring like a swimmer in a pool.

You toss the rope away and spring to your feet. You leap over the strange hands and the foot-high flames and sprint for the roll-up door. You have no trouble throwing the door up and you run, naked into the night.

You are in what looks like a rental storage unit complex. There are rows of buildings with lines of roll-up doors all locked from the outside. As you run across the rocky ground in your bare feet you hear a woman's heart-stopping scream that is suddenly cut off with a gurgling messy noise. You head for the exit to the compound listening to sounds of destruction from behind you.
