Chapter 1: Arrival at Ravenwood

Lindsay beamed with excitement as her dad dropped her off at Ravenwood College. "Remember, kiddo, behave yourself this time," he said, his eyes sparkling with a mix of humor and concern.

"I will, Dad, I promise!" Lindsay replied, already envisioning the adventures awaiting her.

As she stepped out of the car, Lindsay's gaze fell upon the imposing structure of Ravenwood College. The sprawling campus, nestled deep within the woods, seemed to whisper secrets in the wind.

Upon arrival, Lindsay received a warm welcome from the principal, who handed her a map of the school and a set of rules. "Remember, Lindsay, the south part of the woods is off-limits. It's not safe," the principal cautioned.

Lindsay's curiosity piqued, but she nodded obediently, recalling her promise to her dad.

As she made her way to her dorm, Lindsay felt fortunate to have secured a room to herself. Each dome typically housed two students, but luck had smiled upon her.

That night, unable to sleep due to boredom, Lindsay decided to take a midnight stroll around the campus. The moon cast eerie shadows as she wandered, her footsteps echoing through the deserted corridors.

As she approached the south side of the school, Lindsay felt an inexplicable pull. Despite the principal's warning, she hesitated, her curiosity getting the better of her.

Just as she was about to step forward, a teacher appeared, her voice firm but kind. "Where are you headed, Lindsay?"

Lindsay hesitated, unsure how much to reveal. "Nowhere, I was just... um... admiring the view."

The teacher's gaze lingered, then she nodded and continued on her way. Lindsay remained still, her eyes fixed on the south side, where flashes of light flickered like fireflies.

Shrugging it off, Lindsay continued her stroll, the mystery of the flashing lights lingering in her mind like a whispered secret.
