2 days ago:

Women's POV:

I was laying my head on the vans small window. The window was opened and the fresh air breezed into the cramped van. It was me, my three girl friends and my five guy friends. We are all very close and know each other very well. So, were like besties... but more like brothers and sisters.

Today was the first day of summer break and we finally get to get away from our college for 3 weeks. Finally our exams were over. We get to camp out and get away from all the stress.

My friend, Adam, the oldest one here, was driving the van. Edwin was the second oldest and was Adam's boyfriend for about 6 years. They've been dating in High School and still are. They were riding in the front. My girlfriend, Suzie, was laying her head on my lap. We have only been dating for 2 years. She was snoozing away. The other three guys, Hollan, Finn, and Garold were sitting in the three seater in the back playing a card game and goofing around. Our friend, Luna, was looking out the window with her headphones plugged into her iPod. Listening to one her of her favorite bands or singers.

I was stroking Suzie's hair gently while I was in a dazed state. Dreaming of nothing but this awesome camping trip.

~10 hours later~

Sitting up quickly, I realized that I had also snoozed out a bit. Maybe more then a bit.

Yawning loudly, I shake Suzie's arms gently and tell her we arrived. She bolted up from my lap and looked around like a startled deer.

Laughing quietly, I grabbed her hand and dragged her out of the van. I saw the five guys and Luna looking around the area. The forest was beautiful. Masses of trees all around. Fresh air and the cold wind biting at our exposed hands and faces.

Shivering, I pulled up my sleeves down more and put on my beanie. Suzie snuggled into my arms more for some warmth.

We saw a small building that was located near the parking lot entrance. Quickly jogging up to the building and hoping to seek some warmth in the building.

Once we entered in, a gust of hot air hit us. Instantly warming up our freezing body. We already had our backpacks and camping gear. We just needed a few maps and know were our camping location is. Adam went up the front desk and asked the small lady,

"Hey madam, um me and my group of friends were wondering where we are camping and if we can get a few maps as well?"

The women handed him a few maps of the Alaska forest and its main locations. She asked in a gentle mannered tone,

"Yes sir, tell me your name and I'll see where your camping site is exactly."

Adam give her his full name because we put his name under the reservation. She gave us another map that showed us a trail that will lead us where we I'll stay for 2 weeks and 4 days.

~1/2 hour later~

One of the guys, Hollan, asked,

"Hey, lets take a quick pic and send it our other dear friends who decided to get a tan in Florida. Yeah??"

We hesitated at first to the idea but agreed that we should take a quick pic. I grabbed out my phone and we huddled together. The magnificent large trees behind us as a background. A few of us sticked out our tongues and only Adam, Luna and me smiled normally.

I quickly posted it and sent it on our group chat called Fluffy Unicorns. Automatically all our phones ringed off. Laughing at the silly pic. A few minutes later our other five friends sent a pic of them laying on the sandy beach.

After that we just texted back and forth. All of us ended up laughing cause one person in the chat said,

Boy 1: 'Emma is such a nerd that she got stuck in our college dorms. Probably masterbating with her books.'

Girl 1: 'Emma is such a sweetheart don't say stuff like that.'

Boy 1: 'Whoops, forgot she was a virgin and she probably doesn't even know what a kiss is.'

We were dying of laughter because of the that but collected ourselves and continued walking up the trail.

~1 and 1/2 later

We finally got to our cabin and opened the door that was unlocked. We saw a pair of keys next the door and a note.

'Please keep your doors locked at 6 pm and don't open the door for anyone. We keep the keys here for our next guests. This way we don't lose our keys but we do have a few extra spares in a small drawer. When you leave this cabin and departure down back to your own homes. Please keep this cabin clean and leave the front door unlocked. The keys placed next to the door. Thank you and enjoy your stay.'

After we all read the note. We checked the mini refrigerator and pantries. Seeing it was stocked with a lot of foods, drinks and booze.

Finn yelled out,

"Hell yeah! We are so gonna get wasted and party all night."

We laughed at his statement and agreed. This was our time to relax and be reckless young adults. We were barely 25. Even Adam was only 23.

Adam told us, before we could go grab the beer like greedy people,

"Hey! Wait... hold up... let's get some real sleep and rest. Then tomorrow we will party all we want. I bet we're all tired and want some rest. Right?"

We all backed away from the beer immediately and agreed to with him. We counted how many rooms there was and saw that there was only three rooms. Me, Suzie, and Luna were gonna share a room. Hollan, Finn, and Garold were gonna share a room. Lastly, Adam and Edwin were gonna share a room together cause they got the smallest room.

Both of the big rooms were located on the second floor and the small room was located on the first floor. There was a small attic that was full of all sorts of equipments, supplies, and games.

        ~The Next Morning~

Looking around, I realized that I was in a different room and came to a conclusion that we were on summer break. Looking down at my bed, I saw Suzie snuggling up with a pillow. Leaning closer to her, I placed a gentle kiss on her cheek and whispered into her ear,

"Hey baby, wake up, it's time to explore the forest."

With the mention of the forest, she quickly bolted up from the bed. She danced around the room and shouted loud enough for everyone to hear,

"Everyone wake up!!!! It's summer break!!! We are gonna explore and party for 2 weeks!!!! So get your lazy asses out of bed and let's go have fun !!!!"

I laughed so hard that I fell out of bed. We heard Edwin shout,

"Ugh, I was getting my beauty sleep here. Sleeping is way more important then a stupid party and an exploration."

Suzie ran out the room with a pillow and we heard a shout few minutes later. After we got our clothes on and ate breakfast. We made our way towards a main trail.

After walking and chatting for 2 hours outside. We decided to head back to the cabin and have some booze and s-mores outside. We found some sticks in a cupboard, chocolate in a pantry, along with the marshmallows. The booze was chilling in the refrigerator.

After we got our blankets and wore clothing to warm up our bodies. We started make some s-mores. We checked the time and saw it was 4 pm. We thought we could stay out until 7 pm and continue partying in the cabin afterwards.

We ate the delicious but sticky s-mores. Drinking a few beers and not being responsible adults. Looking down at my watch, I saw it was 6:35 pm. Giggling a bit, I leaded closer to Suzie. I felt the alcohol kick in a bit.

We decided to pack up our stuff and head inside. None of us were drunk yet. After cleaning up, we heard a tree branch break a few meters away. We all stopped in our tracks and thought it was probably a nearby camper.

We didn't take any chances and ran towards the back door. Just as we made it to the back door, we saw Hollan fall down. Blood was gushing out of his chest and there was a big arrow piercing through the center of his chest. Luna gave out a startled scream and so did Edwin.

Adam ran towards the Hollan and I pulled Suzie closer to me. It was probably a camper who was hunting and made a big mistake. Finn and Garold ran towards Hollan as well. Stopping the bleeding. I ran inside and to the bathroom to grab the first-aid kit.

Going outside I saw a strange man lurking towards our group. Everyone carried Hollan and rushed inside. We bolted the doors and windows shut. Closing every curtain as well. We had some how made it the attic with Holland. We saw his injuries weren't deathly serious. Just had to patch him up and stop the bleeding for now.

As we bandaged the wound, we saw that he was close to loosing a lot of blood. A few moments later we heard a loud banging at the back door. It was probably the strange man. He was crazy and has gone mad.

The banging stopped a few minutes later but we heard him shout,

"You fools ! This was my house! MY HOUSE! And you took my cabin away! This wasn't originally a tourist area! This was my area! MY AREA!"

The banging continued on. His screams echoed throughout the quiet night and Edwin started crying. Adam hugged him tighter and I got up to go to my room. My phone was there and I knew we should get the police to arrest this guy. We had to report him.

Just as I made my way to the room, I heard a window break downstairs. Feet rushing up the stairs. I quickly dialed 911. Before I could get out of the room though, I heard a few screams come from the attic.

Third POV:

The strange man rushed to the attic where the group was hiding. The only place that didn't have a window and was the only room that had one exit.

The man pulled out a sharp knife from his holster belt. Approaching the group slowly. Edwin let out a scream and Adam pulled him closer. Hollan was laying on the wooden floor conscious but unable to get up due to the horrible pain in his chest.

Garold and Finn took a defensive position and Adam joined in as well. Luna and Suzie decided to grab any weapon they could find in the big attic. They found a baseball bat, skiing equipments, snow boarding equipments, and a shovel. Quickly grabbing them, they ran to the strange man and started attacking him. He stood no chance against them. After a few minutes though, the man had enough of the harassment and grabbed out his gun.

He fired first at Luna and then at Suzie. Both of them fell to the floor. Immediately out cold. The man had hit Luna's heart with a single bullet but penetrated Suzie's main organs with three bullets.

Edwin started crying harder and curled up into a ball. Finn looked horrified and Garold stood there frozen. The strange man know had multiple scars and bruises on his face. Anger written all over his face and body.

The strange man screamed and lunged at the closest person. Which was Edwin. Adam ran in front of Edwin and the sharp knife pierced into his stomach. The man sliced his stomach horizontally and Adam's guts spewed out.

Edwin screamed and cried out. Begging for mercy and held his dead boyfriend.

Finn and Garold slowly crept away from the bloody scene. Before they could make it to the stairs the man looked directly at them. The strange man blocked the exit and held out his gun. He motioned with his gun. Telling them to move next to Hollan.

After a few moments, both Garold's and Finn's screams echoed throughout the cabin. Blood spewed all over the wall behind them. The strange man first shoot them both in the chest. Then the guy continually stabbed at their chests, stomach, and faces. Nobody could even tell who they were. Their faces were mushed and ripped.

Hollan slowly crawled away. Ignoring the pain in his chest. He just wanted to get away from him and was close to the door. Just as he laid his hands on the door knob, the strange man pulled him away from the door from his feet.

Hollan screamed but the man silenced him by slicing his throat. Gurgling up blood, Hollan limped back onto the floor dead. He continually sliced at Hollan's back.

The strange man laughed and looked at all the blood. Laying down on the pool of blood and bathed in it. The strange man has gone completely crazy and mad. This isn't the first time he's killed the guests who've fouling stepped into HIS house and onto HIS property.

Women's POV:

As I climbed up the stairs I saw the door was locked. Then a few gun shots ringing off.

I stepped back and ran towards the same room again. Locking the door and hiding in the closet. A hour or so later the screams, begging, and cries quieted down.

I heard footsteps descending down the steps. His footsteps heavy and loud. Hearing the front door open, I quickly bolted up from my place in the closet and ran towards the attic.

What I saw was horrific. Blood was pooled everywhere. There was two bodies that I couldn't tell who was who. Hollan's back and throat was sliced open, and Adam's stomach was teared opened. Edwin was shot in the head, Luna was shot in the heart......

No not my girlfriend. Crying I held her in my arms. Blood was staining my hands red. The sirens were blaring in the distance.

This camping trip has definitely gone wrong.
