The night was calm, quiet, where am I? On a river? this place is familiar, I've seen it before, White Oak, the river, near the woods, what am I doing here?
I know for a fact I never got out of the house. I can't move, I hear a whisper, "come…", from the woods I hear it, why am I moving? I look back, it's dark, not even the light of the moonlight gets through the woods.
My body starts moving, I want to stop moving, yet my body moves on its own, help, I can't stop.
I stopped how? I hear whisper again, "Never go into the forest it said", Who are you? What do you want?
I didn't get a clear answer, yet he replied, "save them…", Who? Who should I save? Before I can ask the one who whispered again, I woke up.
I look at the clock, 3:33am? 26th of the month? It's that day again. Someone is knocking on the door, I got up, and head and opened the door.
A man is standing in-front of me, a cop, he told me to come to the station immediately.
This is not how I imagined to start my day, I dressed up, head to the station with the cop.
While driving to the station, I can't stop thinking that dream, it feels real, the cold river, the cold breeze of air, who are those whispered to me?
It's as if the dream is telling me something, yet I can't quite figure it out.
I arrived at the station, with a bad news spatted to my face; Anika, a local of the town gone missing, her family reported she never came home from work.
They didn't wait for 24hrs after she was lost for a missing person case, after all what happened, this town is spooked to core; when someone is gone missing from their town? They take it very seriously.
Is it just the same like those who have gone missing, did she end up in the wood like the rest of them? I must find her.
Again, a family lost their loved one, here again, in the White Oak.
