“Do you guys see that light up ahead?” asked Charlie.
“What is it?” asked Mitchell.
“I don’t know, let’s go check it out” said Ryder.

Anticipation engulfed the foggy forest as the group shifted toward the direction of the unrevealed light source. The closer they got, unknown voices surfaced from the distance, making them feel uneasy. Walking ever so slowly, they come across an open field, where sitting in front of them was a small group of four, talking amongst themselves in a quiet fashion.

“I thought this forest wasn’t a popular forest to camp in?” questioned Ryder.
“It isn’t. I’ve been here before, and with all that is said about this forest, it is best to stay as far away as possible!” replied Charlie.
“Then why did you take us here!” Exclaimed Mitchell

“No, you thought it would be fun to watch all of us get killed,” proclaimed Asher.

“What was that,” Exclaims one of the girls in the other group, snapping her attention in the direction of the guys.
