You notice a tree hidden in shadows and take your chance to hide. You press your back against the bark and close your eyes in trepidation. You stand in silence, listening to the sounds of the forest night. You hear ground crunching – slow, heavy steps. You hear the cold breath of your stalker – twisted and sick. You feel tense from deep within and your toes curl in fear. Your stalker moves closer to you – to the very tree you’re hiding behind. You know they could wrap their hands around your throat and throttle you with ease. The heavy breathing gets stronger now – it sounds vicious, almost animal like. You wait in utter silence – hoping. Suddenly you hear the footsteps begin to move off. The ground crunches again as they disappear into the shadows. At last you take a sigh of relief – you’re safe, for now.

Do you continue on into the forest? – go to part 16

Do you go back to the cabin? – go to part 17
