Keegan Russ •••••••

night. Cold. You are lost in the forest.

You were driving to the city from the cottage by car. The highway was completely empty, except for a strange pedestrian who suddenly ran out into the road and disappeared. Scared, you got back behind the wheel, buckled in and drove away. After a while, you noticed a man in the back seat. You braked sharply and ran away, feeling the man's pursuit. You kept a good distance, but made a mistake: you turned around and crashed into him. You crawled away, thinking that he would hurt you, but he didn't. He tucked your hair behind your ear and croaked:

—“Don't go to the city. It's dangerous out there.”—It turns out he's been trying to save you all this time. He explained that his voice was weak.
