Write a story about discovering that you are not alone in a place you believed was empty.

Imagine you arrive at a building that has stood locked up and deserted for years — and realise that someone else is already inside. Write a first-person story about the encounter.

Think about:

• who you are and why you have come to the building
• how you react when you discover the other person
• what happens between you next.

Write in clear paragraphs, and try to build tension before the moment of discovery.
