I heard a loud thud on the door. It shook and rattled.

They were back!

            𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐧

Helena (screams)
"Oh no!" The Bigfoot are back again, grab your shotgun Tucker!"

"Kill them!"

(A male voice yells, who's in there?)

"You're trespassing, open this door right now!"

I'm armed and this is open range territory, I
got the right to shoot all Intruders...

Tucker: (relieved, but annoyed) "Okay, well, don't get your panties in a bunch." I'm opening the door.

(The cabin door swings open, Tucker and the stranger glare at each other...)

Helena: (joyful)
"Thank God you're here, we've been harassed and terrified by some Bigfoot creatures!"

Tucker: "Yeah, I dropped two of them but they might be more of those creatures out there."

"Oh my God, the stranger said."

"Are you guys okay?"

    𝐓𝐮𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐫 𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐇𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐚

Oh, let me introduce myself my name is Fisher and this cabin belongs to me. I'm a science researcher.

Those Bigfoot must have belonged to that hostile tribe that has migrated into our area. Bigfoot are migratory animals and this tribe has traveled into the Appalachian mountain range.

Now the Bigfoot that belong to this area are not quite as hostile, though some are.

"Your shoulder, I see that it is bleeding do you need assistance?

Tucker: "No, I'm fine. It's just a scratch from one of their claws or teeth, they're fast and strong, those things."

Helena: "But how do you know so much about them? Are you studying them too?"

Fisher: "Yes, I am. I've been tracking and observing them for years. They're quite fascinating creatures, but very dangerous.
They have their own language, culture, and social structure.

They're not just mindless beasts."

Tucker: "Well, they sure act like it. They've been attacking us ever since we got here. We were just looking for a quiet place to spend our honeymoon."

Fisher: "I'm sorry about that. You must have stumbled into their territory. They're very territorial and protective of their land and resources.

They see humans as a threat and also as an competitor."

Helena: "But why are they so aggressive? Can't they coexist with us peacefully?"

Fisher: "That's a complicated question. Some Bigfoot tribes are more peaceful than others, but they all have a deep distrust and resentment of humans.

They have been hunted, captured, and exploited by humans for centuries. They've seen their habitats destroyed and their families killed by humans. They've learned to fight back and survive."

Tucker: "So they're just defending themselves?"

Fisher: "In a way, yes. But they also have a dark side. They can be cruel, violent, and vengeful. They enjoy tormenting and killing humans for sport.

They have a bloodlust that can't be satisfied."

Helena: "That's horrible. How can we stop them?"

Fisher: "We can't. We can only try to avoid them or fight them if we have to. They're too smart and too strong for us to defeat them. They're the true masters of this land."

The Bigfoot tribe that has come into this area call themselves The 'Arkens.' They migrated here from the Pacific Northwest and are very, very aggressive!

Tucker: (eyebrows raised) "Now wait a cotton picken minute!"

"What in the hell are you talking about!"
These are just animals we're talking about.

Fisher: "No, they are half human and half animal. Also, they do have a language which I have learned from living out here with them."

Tucker: "Then what are we going to do? We can't stay here forever."

               𝐅𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐫

Fisher: "We have to find a way out of here. There's a road about five miles from here that leads to the nearest town. If we can get there, we might be safe."

Helena: "But how can we get there without being seen by them?"

Fisher: "We'll have to wait until nightfall and sneak out quietly. I have a truck parked nearby that we can use."

Tucker: "Okay, let's do that. But we have to be careful. They might be watching us right now."

Helena: "I hope not. I don't want to see those monsters ever again."

Fisher: "Don't worry, I'll protect you both. I know how they think and how they move. I've been studying them for a long time."

Tucker: "You're brave, Fisher. Thank you for helping us."

Fisher: "Don't mention it. I'm just doing my job."

[Fisher has befriended a group of Bigfoot that live in the area that are friendly to him. He calls them the Peaceful Ones.

They're a small and isolated tribe that have learned to coexist with humans peacefully. They don't attack or harm humans unless provoked. They're curious and gentle creatures that have a strong bond with nature.]

[Fisher has been able to communicate with them using a simple sign language and some vocalizations. He has learned a lot from them about their culture and history. He considers them his friends and allies.

         𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐊𝐫𝐚𝐲𝐦𝐚𝐤

As night falls, Fisher, Tucker, and Helena prepare to leave the cabin. They pack some supplies and weapons and head to the truck. Fisher leads the way with a flashlight, while Tucker and Helena follow behind him.]

(They move quietly and cautiously, trying not to attract attention.)

Fisher: "We're almost there, my truck is just around the corner."

Tucker: "Good. I can't wait to get out of here."

Helena: "Me too. This place gives me the creeps."

(Suddenly, they hear a loud roar from behind them. They turn around and see a group of hostile Bigfoot charging at them. They're huge and muscular, with dark fur and red eyes. They have sharp teeth and claws and carry crude weapons. They look angry and hungry.)

Tucker: "Oh shit! They found us!"

Fisher: "Run! Run to the truck!"

Helena: "Aaaah!"

[The trio run as fast as they can, but the Bigfoot are faster. They catch up with them and attack them. One of them grabs Helena by the hair and pulls her back. She screams and kicks, but can't free herself.

Another one swings a club at Tucker's head, but he ducks and shoots it with his shotgun. The Bigfoot falls to the ground, but another one takes its place. Fisher tries to fight them off with his knife, but he's outnumbered and overpowered.

He gets knocked down by a punch to the face.]

Fisher: "Ugh!"

Helena: "Tucker! Help!"

Tucker: "Hang on, Helena! I'm coming!"

(He tries to reach her, but he's blocked by two more Bigfoot. He fires his shotgun again, but it's empty. He throws it at one of them and hits it in the face. He grabs a rock and smashes it into the other one's skull. He breaks through and runs towards Helena.)

Tucker: "Let her go, you beast!"

(He grabs the Bigfoot that's holding her and tries to wrestles with it. He manages to free her from its grip, but it bites him on the arm.)

Tucker: "Aaargh!"

Helena: "Tucker!"

(She picks up a stick and stabs it in the eye. The Bigfoot roars in pain and lets go of Tucker. He runs up and hugs her.)

Tucker: "Are you okay?"

Helena: "I'm fine, thanks to you."

Tucker: "We have to get out of here."

[They look around and see that Fisher is still on the ground, surrounded by three Bigfoot. They're about to finish him off when they hear another roar from the other side of the cabin.

They turn around and see a group of Bigfoot running towards them. But these ones are quite different. They're bigger and taller, with dark brown hair and blue eyes. They have no weapons, but they have a fierce look on their faces. They're the Peaceful Ones.]

Fisher: "It's them! It's my friends!"

(The Peaceful Ones charge at the hostile Bigfoot and attack them. The Peaceful Ones have a name for themselves. It's The Kraymak.)

(A Kraymak tackles a Bigfoot and smashes it aside the head with a boulder)

"Arrhh, cries the Bigfoot as the Kraymak breaks it's arm!" Two more combatants are locked in a death battle. The Bigfoot twists it's neck and the Kraymak falls lifeless to the earth.

         𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐧𝐬

Ferocious bites, vicous slashes and deaths are dealt and exchanged throughout the intense battle. More Kraymak Bigfoot show up for the battle. And soon the aggressive ones are out numbered and driven off.

Fisher: "Thank you! Thank you for saving me!"

(The Peaceful Ones nod at him and smile. They recognize him as their friend and ally.)

Tucker: "Who are they?"

Fisher: "They're the Peaceful Ones. They're a friendly tribe of Bigfoot that live in this area. They've been helping me with my research."

But, I should say that they call themselves

'The Kraymak.'

Helena: "They're amazing."

Fisher: "Yes, they are."

(The Kraymaks manage to drive away the hostile Bigfoot, who retreat into the woods, licking their wounds.)

Fisher: "You did it! You did it!"

(He gets up and hugs one of them.)

Fisher: "You're incredible! Thank you so much!"

(The Kraymak's leader hugs him back and makes a grateful sound.)

Fisher: "You're welcome."

(He introduces Tucker and Helena to his friends.)

Fisher: "These are my friends, Tucker and Helena. They're good people."

(The Peaceful Ones greet them warmly and shake their hands.)

Tucker: "Hi there."

Helena: "Hello."

Fisher: "They were attacked by those bad Bigfoot too. They need your help."

(The Peaceful Ones nod and agree to help them.)

Fisher: "Thank you again."

(He leads them to his truck.)

Fisher: "Come on, let's go."

(They get in the truck and drive away from the cabin.)

Tucker: "Wow, that was incredible."

Helena: "I know, right?"

Fisher: "You're lucky to be alive. Those Bigfoot are very dangerous."

Tucker: "Yeah, we owe you our lives, Fisher. And your friends too."

Fisher: "Don't mention it. I'm just glad you're safe."

Helena: "Where are we going?"

Fisher: "We're going to the town. There's a hospital there where you can get treated for your wounds. And a hotel where you can rest."

Tucker: "Sounds good to me."

Helena: "Me too."

Fisher: "And then what?"

Tucker: "Then what?"

Fisher: "What are you going to do after that?"

Tucker: "I don't know. Go back home, I guess."

Helena: "Yeah, me too."

Fisher: "Are you sure?"

Tucker: "Sure about what?"

Fisher: "About leaving this place. And just forgetting everything that happened here."

Tucker: "Why? What do you mean?"

Fisher: "I mean, don't you want to know more about Bigfoot? Don't you want to learn from them? Don't you want to help them?"

Tucker: "Help them? How?"

Fisher: "By protecting them. By spreading the word about them. By making the people understand them and respect them. By saving them from extinction."

Tucker: "Extinction? Are they in danger of extinction?"

Fisher: "Yes, they are. They're being hunted and killed by humans and other predators. They're losing their habitats and their resources. They're facing a lot of threats and challenges. They need our help."

Helena: "But how can we help them? We're just ordinary people."

Fisher: "You're not ordinary. You're extraordinary. You've seen things that most people will never see. You've experienced things that most people will never experience."

So, will you help them?

Tucker: "...?"

Helena: "...?"

Fisher: "So, what will you choose?"
