Okay, I think I've never felt so much pain at once in my life... this hurts like fucking hell... I would LOVE to say I'm joking but... uh-uh, same with the horse thing, don't put one in front of me, I swear...

Abi- *Arrives* Hey... I couldn't find anything to eat, the kitchen's pretty cleaned out... oh shoot, I left my bag... I-I brought you this... *leaves the cup on a table*.
Nick- That was... fuck, I don't even know what happened, it was all just a blur.
Abi- How are you feeling?
Nick- I'm okay, I'll be okay, thanks to you.
Abi- No, no... I just helped a little, it was all Kaitlyn and Juls...
Nick- You're here with me... that helps.
Abi- *Blushes*.
Kaitlyn- *Arrives* Alright, they're off to find a radio or something.
Abi- What's with the... um?
Kaitlyn- Oh, uh... they found another in Mr. H's office so... just in case.
Abi- And what happened to the lights?
Kaitlyn- Not sure. Any better?
Nick- I'm doing okay... kind of.
Abi- Wait, are they going to the radio hut?
Kaitlyn- Phone's dead, they're going to try to send out an SOS or something. We're holding down the fort... *hears a noise and looks up*.

What was that? Are those steps?

Abi- I thought you said Dylan, Ryan and Juls already left.
Kaitlyn- Stay here, I'll check it out.
Nick- We'll be fine just... be careful.
Kaitlyn- Stay alert *leaves*.

Fuck it, it must be one of the hunters... *sees his flashlight and hides next to a wall* SHIT!! *sees he left and runs that way*. What is he doing?! And WHY IS HE HERE?! *Hears him through the door*.

Hunter- No sign of them.
Phone- When you find them *interference* and keep me posted Bobby.

Who the hell is that guy? *Sees the handle moving* AH FUCK!! *Runs and hides in the stair*. Holy shit, I've got no time to go down... why is he not noticing me? Jesus has come to see me, I'm his pal for sure. Okay, time to run back to the nurse station *goes behind him*.

Bobby- *Turns around*.

OH SHIT, SHIT, SHIT, I SHOULD'VE JUST GONE DOWN, FUCKING STUPID!!! *Runs across the floor*. Time to shoo- *turns around* fuck he's too close, WHAT DO I DO NOW?!

Nick- Hey so... this may not be like... the best time to say it but like...
Abi- What?
Nick- Yes so like, I was just... you know, thinking about like, the start of summer, when we first met and started camp and... well like, now that summer's over and... you know, is like the last time we're gonna see each other you know?
Abi- Sorry Nick, what-what are you saying?
Nick- Hey... don't worry about Kaitlyn, she's tough.
Abi- I know... I'm sorry Nick, I'm just... distracted. Let's just, get through the night okay?
Nick- Maybe I was misreading the situation back there but... kinda felt like a little bit more was gonna happen...
Abi- Well... did you... want a little bit more to happen?
Nick- Are you dumb?!
Abi- Hey...
Nick- Sorry... I just mean... of course I wanted it to happen I just... didn't know if you did too.
Abi- That... seems like such a long time ago now...
Nick- You didn't want it to happen though.
Abi- Oh um...
Nick- You can tell me.
Abi- Yeah... I-I guess.
Nick- You're just saying that because I'm hurt.
Abi- Nick, ugh... *hears a noise*. What is going on out there, Kaitlyn?! We have died, we've died.
Nick- Let's go, I got this *stands up*.
Kaitlyn- *Arrives running*.
Abi- Oh my god, what happened!?
Nick- Jesus, where's the gun?
Kaitlyn- We gotta get out.
Abi- No, we have to hide!
Nick- Quick *hides with them*.
