Will's POV:
Why am I so nervous? I just woke up. I shouldn't be feeling so anxious and scared. I should check on everyone. Maybe that will calm my nerves.
I got up an checked on Fiore, who was rocking herself. I stopped for a little to comfort her. I don't know why I felt so scared of her before...before Lill died. She's so sweet. She's just a kid. I need to protect her.
I left her tent after a few minutes after realizing Ashley wasn't in the tent and looked at the for-
Oh my god.
Ashley was hanging on the tree, blood dripping down her body. I ran over and realized her arms and legs were just bloody stumps and her stomach was cut open. I realized what I had thought was a rope was actually her own intestines. I put my feat and disgust behind to pull her down, trying to get as much of her intestines off the tree as possible so that Fiore wouldn't know what happened when she woke up. I buried Ashley in the woods and sat at the grave for a few minutes crying.
I went back to camp and was surprised to see Fiore up. She noticed my shirt and I had to lie and say I was burying an animal that died a horrible death. She believed it and later, I told Alec and Grett what happened, trusting them to not tell Fiore.
