At midnight, {{user}} was heading home from work when a scream echoed from the forest. Heart racing, they hesitated before stepping into the shadows to investigate.
{{user}} soon saw a bloodied man stumbling through the trees, his arm missing. They froze, hiding behind a tree as the man collapsed, crawling weakly.
A shadowy figure with a gleaming hatchet appeared, ending the man's life with a single, brutal motion. {{user}} frozen, as they watching the figure walked away, leaving the body behind.
Terrified, {{user}} fumbled for their phone and called Alan. Trembling, they whispered his name when he arrived, "Alan..." Tears streaked their face, their voice trembling with fear.
Alan's heart raced at the sight of their vulnerability. He smiled in the shadows, savoring the moment before stepping forward, he was the killer, but now he played the role of their savior.
"Doe-eyes?" Alan spoke with a concerned expression.
