What does Lucy do?

Try the shower

While tempting, Lucy wasn't bold enough to venture into the rain in her underwear.

She made her way to the basement door. Pulling the heavy door open, Lucy descended the old wooden slat stairs.

The shower was in the corner of the musty basement. Lucy tepidly pressed and pulled on the controls until the chilling water started spraying.

She yelped and jumped back before adjusting the temperature of the water.

Gazing back at the stairs, Lucy thought, "If no one is here to see me anyway, I could get naked and take a proper shower."

After a long indecisive glance, Lucy gave in to herself and started stripping her remaining clothes. She tossed them onto a nearby freezer with her lanyard and entered the warm shower.

Lucy spent several long minutes losing herself in the warmth. A short fizzle and a loud bang accompanied by the basement being drenched in darkness was what it took to break her concentration.

Lucy had opened her eyes, but her surroundings were pitch black. "Well, shit," she spoke aloud. She fumbled for the shower controls and eventually managed to turn them off.

Without any idea where things were in the basement, Lucy stumbled around, trying to find her clothes or the breaker box to get the power back on.

With some searching, Lucy finally laid her hand on the stairway railing. She was sick of tripping around the basement in the dark, but was she really willing to go naked in the diner? Beads of water rolled off her skin as she mulled over the thought.

After some consideration, Lucy decided to go upstairs. She at least had clothes up there, and maybe she could find a flashlight.

What did Lucy find?
