Josh laughed, looking down at Lucy. “Is everything okay?” he asked, listening to her scream.

“You guys are real assholes!” Lucy yelled, looking up at the two. “Why would you pull something like that with me?”
“Cause,” Jeff said, laughing, holding out his hand to pick her off the ground. “It was funny.”
“I dont need any help, I can get up myself.” Lucy glared up at Jeff, slapping his hand. She attempted to lift her body up, but completely failed.
“You forgot about your ankle,” Josh laughed, pointing down at her broken foot.  He started to walk towards the cabin they had rented for the week. “Jeff, maybe you should help her out. I mean, she doesn’t seem to be the type to make it out here.” Jeff lifted Lucy onto his back and the three of them walked towards their vacation home.
Not knowing there was something else watching them. Glowing eyes glaring from the bushes. It disappeared along with the three. If they knew about it, it wouldn’t be a surprise.
Back at the cabin, the two friends sat at the table. Lucy was wrapping her foot in a sling. Well, that’s what would be happening if they had brought a first-aid kit. “Did we seriously forget it!” Jeff yelled, searching frantically to stop his girlfriend from yelling. Throwing clothes out of the bags and onto the floor, making a larger mess. Josh laughed hysterically at his two friend’s suffering. Lucy continued to scream, as she had been for the whole trip. Life was  peachy for these three.
There was a knock on the door. The three stopped everything they were doing. Jeff dropped the boxers that were in his hands. Josh stood there looking towards the door.  Lucy finally stopped yelling. “Lucy’s got it,” Josh said, laughing to himself. Jeff walked over to the door, and looked back to the group. Lucy shook her head rapidly. Josh nodded his head, smirking knowing that Lucy would again freak out if Jeff opened the door.
Jeff liked Josh more than Lucy. Josh was funny, and cool. Lucy was Lucy. She yelled at him a lot, and Jeff didn’t like that. No one knows why Jeff thought about who he liked more out of the two, when he was supposed to answer the door.
“Dude open the door.” Jeff twisted the doorknob. Creaking, the door slowly opened, revealing nothing. Lucy started to scream.
“Jeff, you better knock her out, or I will!”
“Don’t worry I will.” Jeff said.
Lucy continued to scream. “What is that,” she pointed towards nothing standing in the doorway. Was she crazy? Maybe. If she was, Jeff would obviously leave her. What if she wasn’t though. What if there was something there. There wasn’t.
“How about we put on the T.V.,” Josh said interrupting the silence. He started to turn the dusty knobs on the television. “Netflix and chill,” he screamed.
“Do you know what you’re doing?” Jeff asked.
“I don’t even know what a VHS is.”Josh continued playing the with television, which was projecting only static. Lucy sat in a ball on the couch, and Jeff stayed standing, watching the two. Another knock came from the door, and Jeff opened it right away. Down at his feet was a basket with a note attached.
Jeff lifted the basket, bringing it into the cabin. “I’ll be watching you, winky face,” Josh read aloud. “I think this is where we go home.”
“But we just got up here, and I finally got the T.V working.
“She won’t let us go.” Lucy interrupted their conversation.
“Who won’t?” Jeff asked
“Her.”
“Who’s her?”
“That.” Lucy pointed to a young woman staring at the group from the window.
“Hey, she’s kinda hot!” Josh yelled, smiling now ignoring the prehistoric television. The girl also smiled, looking directly at him, then vanished. “Wait, no don’t go. We could’ve gotten to know each other.”
Josh was maybe one of the most flirty guys up at the college. He never picked up a girl, but that didn’t stop him. Josh ran outside to find his new friend. Jeff and Lucy looked at the opened door.
“We gotta go and find Josh.” Jeff stood up. Lucy continued to sit. Eventually she lay back down.
“What are you doing, Josh needs help!”
“I’ll only slow you down.” Lucy looked down at her foot, she knew she wouldn’t be any help.
“What do you mean? You’ll be fine. Come on Josh needs us!” Jeff pulled at Lucy’s arm.
“Let go!” Lucy shouted, pulling her arm away. “Just go already!” Jeff looked at her confused to why she wouldn’t help him find his friend.
“Fine, I will!” Jeff ran into the night.

“Josh, Josh!” Jeff yelled, attempting to find his friend. Branches cracked underneath his feet, some scratching his face as he ran. Jeff stopped at a clearing with a river beside it. He was far away from the cabin.
Even though this was an emergency, and his friend was probably dead, he couldn’t help  but look at his surroundings. Leaves covered the canopy, letting little sun in. A breeze of mountain pine caught his attention, it was his favorite kind of pine. He was fascinated by the shape of them. It looks like a bush, and that is so much better than just a pine tree that Jeff saw everyday. This was a special day, different from the rest. “Oh, wait.” Jeff paused thinking.  “Josh!” Jeff remembered what his real mission was, and started to ignore the smells of nature.
Less moonlight appeared through the canopy. A young woman appeared from behind a tree, a different looking one than before. The two’s eyes met. His eyes a light hazel color. Hers black, and cold. She was paler than anyone he had seen before. Blue veins sticking out beneath her flesh. She didn’t smell like mountain pine. Jeff didn’t like it. His heart rate rose. Hers stayed the same. She smiled slightly at him and walked off, revealing his friend lying on the ground. Jeff knew Josh was killed, and the killer was that girl. He turned around to confront the girl, but she was gone.
Jeff walked back to the cabin. There were no trees covering the sky, but there was still no light. He opened the cabin door.
“Where’s Josh?”
“He’s gone.”
“We got to get out of here!”
“Later, I had a long day.” Jeff crawled into bed and fell asleep soundly. Lucy stared at him astonished at the fact that he could sleep in a time like this.

The sun shined through the window, wakened Jeff. The trees moved slightly. Sunshine reflected off the lake, making a crystal pattern in the water. A deer stood at the lake. It had the largest, most beautiful antlers that Jeff had ever seen. Jeff smiled slightly. He stretched out his body.
“That was a bad dream,” he said aloud. Jeff then realized everything that happened wasn’t actually a dream. “I have to get out of here!” Jeff lifted himself out of the bed. Then he remembered Lucy.
“Lucy, get up.” Jeff lightly shook her body, but she did not get up. “Come on.” Jeff continued pushing Lucy until she eventually fell off of the bed. That woke her up. “Come on we have to get out of here!” Jeff picked up Lucy and carried her on his back.
“Where are we going?”
“To our car!” Jeff ran towards the door, at least seemed like he was running. He really was doing more of a speed walk.
“Hurry up!”
“I’m trying.” The two were about 20 feet from their car. They knew that this was their only to escape. Jeff quickly got to the car, and opened it’s door. He threw Lucy inside, and slammed the door.
“I forgot the keys I’ll be right back!” Jeff ran back into the cabin.
Lucy sat in her seat all alone. She did not know what had happened to Josh, but it was obvious it wasn’t good. This was supposed to be a good time. Instead it was a terrible experience. Her parents had always told her that she would hate camping and they were right.
“Why did Jeff have to rent this cabin?” Lucy asked herself looking through the cabin’s door, and seeing her boyfriend’s struggle to find the keys. Jeff reached down at his feet and ran back to the car. “Why didn’t we use the car last night?” she screamed at Jeff. The two of them laughed at their own stupidity.
“I like you.”
“Oh, I like... you too?” Lucy responded. Jeff hugged her tightly through the car’s window. Their embrace was interrupted when the girl appeared again behind Jeff.
“Jeff get in here!” Lucy shouted.
“Let me enjoy this moment a little longer,” Jeff whispered into her ear.
“No, get in the car!”
“Shhhh, everything’s going to be okay.”
“What are you talking about? You’re going to die.”
“No, we survived babe.”
The girl grabbed jeff and dragged him into the woods. Lucy sat in the car alone, not panicked, just alone. For once it was quiet. She smiled at the fact that she had survived this trip. She lost her boyfriend, but still she survived. Then it occurred to her.
“Wait a minute... this is just another joke!” Lucy said, finding out the truth of what was actually happening. “Okay you guys can come out now.” No one appeared. “Wow, you guys are the best pranksters, but this time I got you!” Lucy shifted her seat into the driver's side. Using her not broken foot she drove away from that cabin. She never saw either Jeff or Josh after their vacation.
