      I went up to Dwight, he could tell something was wrong by the look on my face. "Jake, anytime you go there, something bad happens. You shouldn't go back.." I sighed, maybe he was right? I hugged Dwight and we sat down at the campfire, but David and Quentin were gone. Instead, it was Leon and Steve. It was time for the round to start, I hoped it wasn't Michael. When the actual area came into view, I realized it was the Suffocation Pit. I started working on a generator, and I was halfway done till my heart started beating fast, whoever this was had found me considerably fast. I heard the sound of footsteps, I hid behind a rock and I watched as the killer kicked the generator. Just my luck, it was Michael.. I snuck away pretty easily. I found Dwight on another generator, I heard the sound of music? Except it was like a sharp beat and it didn't last for long. I just shrugged it off and I kept working on the generator, and we finished it! I smiled at Dwight and ran around, I couldn't find a generator.
I huffed, this'll take a while. I saw a lit totem, I didn't want to be useless just cause I couldn't find a generator. So I started cleansing it, I heard a ruffle in the bushes but I didn't think anything of it. I finished cleansing the totem. I saw Michael in the distance, I knew that if he saw me, he would probably stay chasing me for the rest of the round. Which would save Dwight and the others much more time.. so I started going to where Michael was. As soon as I saw him, I called out his name and hid behind a rock. Thankfully, he didn't see me, or so I thought. I thought he was about to walk away before I saw he was actually coming up to where I was instead. I tried hiding as best as I could but he found me. He raised his knife, I couldn't let this be the end just because I wanted to help my friends.. so I raised my hands to shield myself. His knife scratched my palm hard, he had given me a really deep wound. "WHAT THE HELL, MICHAEL?!?!" I hissed, my friends had finished two generators by now. Just 2 more, but I don't think I'll survive for that long.. and then I passed out from my deep wound.
When I woke up, I saw Leon shining his flashlight above me, I groaned and rolled over. "Leon, could you turn the flashlight off.." I mumbled. "Sorry, all the generators are done. You should be fine, just.. later, replace the bandages on your hand." I was really grateful that Leon had helped me. I saw Michael as soon as I was about to leave, "Michael.." I was about to say something else before I choked on my words. "Never mind.. bye." I don't think I'll visit him anymore after this. Michael held out his hand, as if he didn't want me to leave. "Michael, if you didn't want me to leave, why would you practically slice my hand open?!" I didn't want to be angry at him, but I was. "Why do you attack me every-time you help me?! Don't fucking help me at all if you're just going to do that!" I realized what I had just said, Michael didn't look angry, he looked sad. By the way he was standing, he knew that I was right. Instead of regular breathing, his breathing didn't sound calm. It sounded like a pained breathing.
He just.. started walking away. I felt bad, but I knew that what I did was the right thing. Maybe I could have toned it down just a bit? I left back to the campfire, I knew I wouldn't see him for a while. Even if we had a match together, he'd probably avoid me. Back at the campfire, I wouldn't talk to Dwight, Leon, or Steve. "Jake, listen.. you don't need to be near him if it's just going to drain you." Leon advised, he was right. "I'll just go say bye to him one last time okay?" I gave Leon a half smile. "Whatever makes you happy Jake, but please, don't get into any trouble." Leon said in a slightly stern tone. I didn't answer him after that, I just went to Haddonfield. "MICHAEL?" I called out to him, but no response. "I can't just go on with my day without apologizing to him, even if I was right..." I searched practically every house and I knew Michael was here, he was just avoiding me. I wiped my tears from my eyes, but I couldn't stop them from forming. I leaned against a tree, holding back a choked sob. "I need to stop crying.. or I'll just waste more time" I wiped my tears. Maybe I just wasn't destined to see Michael again.. was it all just a coincidence?
      I couldn't stop crying, my throat hurt from sobbing, and my eyes burned. It hurt to blink and it hurt to speak.. it pained me to be without Michael. It pained me to not be able to tell him that I didn't mean what I said. It hurt that I couldn't comfort him, but now I'm here. Crying alone against a tree, there was no chance Michael would come. The tears just kept coming and coming, my vision was blurry and my eyes were full of tears. I saw Michael in the distance, I wanted to run up to him but I just kept crying. I didn't have any energy to do anything else but cry.
