The team went camping for a week in a forest. They had heard stories of creep encounters and cursed monsters. It didn’t help that Buck swore he saw something in the forest. They were all talking about the campfire, it was about midnight. The forest was cool, quiet, the only found was their talking and the crackling of the fire. Eddie stood up, needing to use the bathroom.

He walked over to a nearby tree and started to do his thing, then he looked up and noticed something in the distance, it was Buck? Buck was waving at Eddie, the quietly beckoning for him to follow him deeper into the forest away from the team and light of the fire. Eddie zipped his jeans up and walked towards Buck, who began to walk further away. Eddie was about to jog when he heard a voice behind him, “Eddie?! Where yah going?!” Buck yelled from the campfire towards him.

“Huh? But—, you were just-,” Eddie looked back, the Buck in the forest wasn’t there anymore.

Eddie saw Buck in the forest, waving for him to go deeper, then he heard Buck behind him at the campfire with the others asking him where he was going. Whatever that ‘thing’ was, it wanted him to go deeper- and it wasn’t Buck.
