"Hey, wake up, there's somone outside." Daniel was standing on the ladder leading to the top bunk. He had woke me up by shaking me. He was wide eyed and super pale.
"What are you talking about?" I asked him. "I said that there is somone outside." He replied. "Well good for them." I said as I rolled over on my side. I heard him groan impatently a load creak of him jumping into his bed. When I heard him snoring I propped myself up on my elbow and looked out the cabin window. As he said there was a person outside. I couldnt see any dicernable features of the person. The eery thing about him is that he wasnt moving. he was just standing there. I crawled over to the side of my bed and climbed down the ladder. My bare feet hit the cold floor. I put on my slippers and grabbed my flashlight.
"Where are you going?" the sudden voice made me jump. My cabin leader was sitting in bed reading a book. "Im going to the bathroom, ill be right back." He nodded and I left the cabin through the wooden door and entered a pitch black abyss. I pressed the button on my flashlight and the beam of light cut through the darkness. I made my way to where the person was standing. There was no sign of life around. the thought struck him that it was just probably somebody from one of the cabins. He searched the area one more time. He ran the beam of the flashlights across the trees. Something shimmered on one when revealed to the light. He walked over to the tree. Pine needles crunched under his slippers. The tree was monstorous, not only was it tall it was wide. It would take about six grown men holding hands to circle the tree. The wind howled and whipped my hair around my head. I touched the dried substance on the side of the tree. It was warm. I didn't think that dried sap would be warm so that ruled that option out of the question. Something dripped on my shoulder.I reached up and tried to wipe it off. It was a liquid. It stuck to the side of hand. I wiped it off on my pajamas and looked up. My eyes met a sight that I wished I had never seen. It was a girl. She hung upside down and blogs dripped off of her corpse. Multiple branches of the tree we're impaled through her body. Another drop blood splattered my face. I dropped flashlight as I stumbled backwards and tripped on a root. I could feel bile rising from my stomach into my throat. I puked on the ground leaving a horrible rate in my mouth. Then came the noise. A series of crunching and snapping noises. I looked to the body. The trees branches were wrapped around the body were shoving it into a hole that seemed to appear on the side of the tree. The hole closed and opened severing of sections of the body. It appeared that the tree was actually......eating it. I tried to scream but no noise came out. What next would probably not let me sleep for the rest of my life. The girl woke up and looked down as the last bit her entered the tree and bitten off. She let out a scream so loud that it turned on every cabin light. One of cabin doors was flung open but then was slammed shut by an unseen object. More and more cabin doors did the same thing. The girl was still screaming as tree devoured her piece by piece. It was at her stomach now. The tree seemed to be annoyed by the screaming so it slithered two branches into the girls mouth. A gurgling noise sounded and a sickening squelching noise. The branches shot out of her eye sockets taking the eyeballs with them. I puked again as one of the eyeballs slid of the branch bounced off the ground and landed in my lap. The tree quickly shoved the rest of the body in to the hole as people from the cabins jumped out of the windows. Blood covered the ground and bits of intestines and guts littered the ground around the base of the tree. One of the cabin leaders came over to me. He jumped back when he saw the eyeball still on my lap. K felt drained physically and mentally.
"Everybody go back to your cabins now!" Mr. Cramer yelled. The cabin leaders took their kids to the cabins and I still laid on the ground. "You, come with me." Mr. Cramer picked my up off the ground, brushed me off and took me to the conference room.
