Mystery Camp

Cry of The Banshee

While Thomas and Mike were out, the cabin felt empty. Tori stayed in her room on her phone. Jameson fell asleep in the dark living room area, curled up by the put out fireplace. Ray was also in the cabin's living room, standing in the corner of the room.

His cold, soulless blue eyes looked up from his phone for a split second. He noticed Jameson beginning to move a little.

"Awake now are we?," Ray said to Jameson in his raspy, quiet voice. Sitting up straight, Jameson looked to his side and noticed his glasses on the floor next to him. He then looked over to Ray, who was standing creepily in the corner.

"Ray. Why aren't mother and father answering? We need to leave this place as soon as possible. If there was one, there's probably more of those horrid Wendigo creatures out there! And the only infantile adult here abandoned us to fish with another moron!"

Tears began of frustration and fear filled Jameson's eyes as he stood up and continued yelling to his brother, "THEY'RE PROBABLY DEAD OUT THERE BY NOW AND WE'LL PROBABLY DIE TOO!!! BUT IT LOOKS LIKE I'M THE ONLY HERE WHO GETS THAT!!! ALL OF YOU ARE JUST-"

"YO! SHUT YO ASS UP!!!", Tori yelled at Jameson, storming into the living room of the cabin looking pissed off. Angrier than ever, Jameson clenched his fist and began marching over to her as well.

Ray instantly started recording on his phone. Jameson got right in Tori's face and was about to give her a mouthy lecture.

*SLAP*

Tori smacked Jameson so hard that he fell to the floor. Jameson instantly held his cheek (which was now red) and gritted his teeth. His eyes began to tear up as he grunted in pain on the wooden, cabin floor.

Looking down at him with a mad expression, Tori said, "You're outta' yo damn mind yo! Don't ever get in my face like that again fool!"

Tori then looked over and saw Ray staring at her, recording. "Hey! What'cha lookin' at huh?! You want some too yo?!"

Ray looked back down at his phone and said, "Nah. I'm good." Tori then looked back down at Jameson. Her expression quickly changed. Jameson was now full on bawling his eyes out on the floor, curled up in a ball, crying into his arms.

Tori's eyes momentarily expressed sadness, before switching right back to her mean eyed expression. "Toughen up. You're a guy, right? Act like one," Tori coldly told Jameson, who was still sobbing.

Abruptly.......an indiscriminate, soul piercing shriek sounded from right outside of the cabin. A feminine, demonic, blood curdling screech. A screech sounding of pain and agony.

It came from out of nowhere, frightening everyone. It was so horrifically blaring that it scared Tori enough to fall back onto the floor. Speechless and trembling, just staring at the door with a terrified expression.

Ray was startled from the sudden scream, causing him to drop his phone onto the hard, wooden floor. The screen shattered immediately upon impact.

Strangely, Jameson didn't budge. His body stayed in the same balled up position on the floor. However, something was...off.

His body was completely motionless. He had gone completely limp. Ray noticed this, but felt too shaken to move a muscle, still standing up against the wall in the corner of the room.

Without making a sound, Ray glanced over to Tori, who was sitting and trembling in the center of the room beside Jameson's lifeless looking body.

Trying to catch her breath through the anxiety forming in her chest, she noticed Ray silently signaling to her to check on his brother. Picking up on this, she nodded back to Ray, trying to hold a bold expression.
