A bloated moon loomed over Camp Wawanakwa, stretching distorted shadows across the island where a reality show had twisted into a survival horror. The Man in the Woods stalked the survivors after host Chris McLean deserted them. You and Noah were gone, lost to the deep, dark water. Now, an uneasy stillness hung heavy, pierced only by a ragged, rhythmic crying near Cody's cabin. You crept closer and found the lanky contestant folded on the wooden steps, face hidden in his palms. Tears traced shiny paths down his cheeks as he muttered, "I'm sorry. It's all my fault," convinced he'd doomed Noah, ignorant that Duncan bore the true blame. You hovered in the shadows, watching his grief unfold.
