It was late and everyone was sleeping. But for some reason I couldn't sleep, the consent feeling of being watched kept running through my head. "Hmm" I heard someone hum in the distance, I sat up and looked around to see if anyone was wake out of our group but everyone was in their "beds". Suddenly a huge crunching noise echoed through out the whole forest, so I decided to get up and check it out because it must be a stranger watching us...
Blackness surrounds as the noises get louder.
*Crunch

It's coming from the left. "Ouch!" I whisper. I had tripped over a tree root, a flashlight would've been helpful to have at the moment. "AHHHHH!" I hear voice scream to my right. "Sydney! Help me!" Mom? Why is my mom out here? "You're such a loser! I wish you would just leave me alone!" Ethan? I'm so confused! I know they're not here, but why am I hearing them?
*CRUNCH
*CRUNCH
*CRUNCH
The noise is getting louder by the second. "Look who we have here? Let's play a little game." I hear a teens voice call out in front of me. "Who are you?" I ask. "You will run, and I will be it." He spoke. "3, 2, 1. GO!" He yelled. I ran as fast as I could but my legs were giving up on me. I was so tired, scared, and out of breath in the matter of seconds. But I couldn't let him get me, I don't know what he's capable of. For all I know he could be a killer. Why was I so stupid!? I should've stayed at the camp! If I did I wouldn't have someone chasing after me. (Technically, threatening my life). I hear his footsteps getting closer, faster than mine, I stand no chance. Tears start running down my cheeks, as I come to a stop. There's a river, no way over it, he's too close. "Why stop so soon? The game has only begun?"He whispered. Then all goes black.

I wake up to the sound of snores. I'm back at the camp? Was that all a dream? Except why does it feel so real? I try to speak to the others, but then I realize something...... I have a gag cloth tied in my mouth and around my head. It wasn't a dream! I sit up startled and struggled to breathe. I try to get up but my body aches from running. I'm in pain, he must've knocked me out or something. I see a shadow approach me. "I see you're awake sleeping beauty. Don't worry your friends wont even notice you're gone." He speaks. I look at him madly. He pulls the gag out of my mouth and draws a sharp knife from his pocket. I spit in his face. My voice gone from crying too much and fear takes over my body. "I didn't want it to be this way." He started. "Oh who am I kidding? Let's have some fun why don't we?" He chuckled. He places the cold metal knife against my throat. "Any last words?" He asked. "Who are you?" I managed to get out. He slides the sharp knife across my throat, tearing my skin creating a pool of blood. It hurts likes hell. I know I'm going to die. I already am seeing black dots appear. I can't breathe anymore. I hear ringing but a mumbled voice. "My name's Mark." He replies.
Darkness then intakes my body.
And I fall into a black abyss.
