WOLVES

As the group trudged through the dense forest, they became increasingly aware of the eerie silence around them. The birds had stopped chirping, and there was no rustling of leaves or branches. It was as if the forest was holding its breath.

Paratha's stomach growled loudly, breaking the silence. She laughed nervously, but the others were too tense to join in. They were all thinking the same thing: that they were being watched.

Suddenly, they heard a strange rustling noise coming from the bushes to their left. Everyone jumped, their hearts racing.

"What was that?" Maidy asked, her voice shaking.

"I don't know," Liam replied, clutching his backpack tightly.

Without warning, a figure darted out of the bushes and ran past them, disappearing into the woods.

"Did you see that?" James exclaimed, his eyes wide with fear.

"It looked like a person," Hannah added, her voice barely above a whisper.

The group huddled together, trying to catch their breath and make sense of what they had just seen. But before they could say anything else, they heard a loud howl coming from the direction the figure had gone.

"It's just a wolf," Daniel said, trying to sound brave.

But Liam wasn't convinced. "That didn't sound like any wolf I've ever heard."

Suddenly, they heard another howl, this time closer. And then another. The group started to panic, not knowing what to do.

"We need to get out of here," Suzanne said, her voice shaking.

But as they turned to leave, they saw that they were surrounded by a pack of wolves. The wolves were growling and snarling, their teeth bared.

The group huddled together, trying to appear bigger and scarier than they were. They knew they couldn't outrun the wolves, so they had to stand their ground.

Just when they thought they were going to be attacked, the wolves suddenly turned and ran off, disappearing into the woods.

Breathless with relief, the group quickly decided to head back to the cabin. As they walked, they couldn't help but feel that they were being followed. Every snap of a twig or rustle of a leaf made them jump.

When they finally reached the cabin, they locked the doors and windows, hoping to keep whatever was out there from getting in.

As they settled down for the night, they couldn't shake the feeling that they weren't alone. Every little creak or groan of the cabin made them jump. It wasn't until they were all asleep that the cabin grew eerily quiet, and the figure that had been following them emerged from the shadows.

It was a woman, with long, wild hair and tattered clothing. Her eyes were sunken and hollow, and she had a pale, ghostly complexion. The woman stood silently for a moment, watching the sleeping group, before disappearing into the night.

The group never saw her again, but they couldn't shake the feeling that they were being watched. They cut their trip short and left the island the next day, eager to put the terrifying experience behind them. But they never forgot the ghostly woman in the woods, and they wondered what other mysteries lay hidden on that remote island.

As they stepped out of the cave, the group found themselves facing an open field, surrounded by dense forest. The sky was now dark, and the only light came from the full moon that shone brightly above them. They looked around, trying to get their bearings and figure out where they were.

Hannah turned to the group, "Guys, we need to find a way out of here. We can't stay in this place any longer."

Daniel nodded in agreement, "Yeah, we need to find a way back to the shore and get off this island as soon as possible."

Peter pointed to the forest, "I think we should head in that direction. It looks like there's a path that leads through the woods."

The group followed Peter's lead and started walking towards the path. As they made their way through the forest, the silence was almost deafening. They could hear the sound of their own footsteps and the rustling of leaves under their feet, but nothing else.

Suddenly, they heard a loud thud coming from behind them. They turned around and saw that Debby had fallen to the ground.

"Debby, are you okay?" Liam asked as he helped her to her feet.

Debby nodded, "I'm fine. I just tripped over something."

As they looked down, they saw a small rock on the ground. But it wasn't the rock that caught their attention. It was the fact that the ground was littered with bones. Human bones.

Suzanne let out a scream and stepped back. "What is this? What kind of place is this?"

Ahmed tried to calm her down, "It's okay, Suzanne. We just need to keep moving. We'll find a way out of here."

As they continued walking, they saw more and more bones scattered around the forest floor. It was clear that they were not alone on the island, and whoever or whatever was here with them was not friendly.

As they turned a corner, they suddenly found themselves face to face with a group of people. But these were not ordinary people. They were all dressed in tattered, dirty clothing, and their faces were covered in dirt and grime. They looked like they had been living in the forest for years.

The group of friends froze in fear as the strangers approached them. One of the men stepped forward and spoke, "What are you doing here?"

"We're lost," Liam replied nervously. "We're just trying to find a way back to the shore."

The man looked at them suspiciously, "You shouldn't be here. This is our home, and we don't take kindly to strangers."

"We're sorry," Hannah said quickly. "We didn't mean to intrude. We'll leave right away."

But the man was not satisfied. He looked at the group for a few more moments before turning to his companions and nodding. Suddenly, the group of strangers pulled out weapons and started advancing towards the group of friends.

The group of friends ran as fast as they could, trying to get away from the strangers. But they were surrounded, and there seemed to be no way out.

Just as they were about to be caught, they heard a loud, piercing scream coming from the distance. The strangers turned their attention towards the scream, and the group of friends saw their chance to escape.

They ran as fast as they could, not daring to look back. They could hear the strangers shouting and chasing after them, but they didn't stop until they reached the shore.

Breathless and terrified, they collapsed onto the sand, relieved to be out of the forest. But they knew that their nightmare was far from over. They had to find a way off the island, and they had to do it fast.
