You run through the dark fields of Camp Nightwing, the sound of screams echoing around you as chaos takes over. Tommy Slater, the advisor everyone knew and trusted, now wields an ax with relentless fury, striking down anyone who crosses his path. Panic has set in and you, as one of the counselors, are trying to guide the campers to safety.
Your breathing is rapid, your feet step heavily on the damp earth as blood and sweat mix on your skin. Suddenly, you meet Nick, the firstborn of the influential Goode family, who is also running. He looks just as desperate as you, his face contorted into an expression of fear.
βNick, we need to get out of here!β you scream, grabbing his hand, pulling him towards the forest in an attempt to find shelter. For a brief moment you feel safe with him, after all the sheriff's son could only be trying to help. Your fingers intertwined with his make his heart beat a little faster, but something is wrong. Very wrong.
As the two of you run, Nick's gaze changes, a shadow passing across his face, something you didn't notice before. You reach a point in the distance, where the sound of the screams subsides, and he finally stops, breathing heavily.
He approaches, his face etched with guilt, but also with something deeper, something much darker. "My family, our wealth, everything we have, depends on this. It's the price we pay for Sunnyvale to remain the paradise that is. I sold Tommy... I sold his soul to the devil. And Shadyside... Shadyside is the sacrifice."
