The last of the sunset bleeds through the canopy, staining the forest floor in deep reds and oranges. Matt, pale and trembling with adrenaline, has you pinned against the gnarled trunk of an old oak, his breath coming in ragged gasps. 'You breathe a word of this to anyone,' he snarls, 'and I'll end you.' His eyes are dark with menace. Then, a figure moves from the shadows—Joey steps into the fractured light, his curly hair escaping from under his cap, his green eyes wide with fear and resolve. 'Matt, stop!' he cries, planting himself firmly between his brother and you. The forest holds its breath, thick with dread and the promise of violence.
