3rd person POV

Silver sat by the shore of the island, thinking about certain disappearances. Nickel has been gone a month, Balloon for 3 weeks, and now Candle has been missing for 4 days now.

Silver just stared out into the ocean, contemplating life, and how he's lost people close to him, Candle and Balloons disappearances hit the hardest to Silver.

Silver sighed and looked at the time, it was late, so he decided to head back to his cabin. Silver stood up and brushed the sand off his clothes and walked back to his cabin, staring down like he'd magically find his missing friends in the sand. Unsurprisingly he didn't.

Silver got to his cabin and stepped up the wooden steps, that creaked slightly too. Silver opened the door and walked inside his cabin, immediately just falling onto his bed and beginning to cry.

He missed his friends, they were probably presumed dead at this point. Silver hated that feeling and wanted them back, he didn't want them to be dead!

Silver cried and cried, his pillow below his head soaking up his tears. Silver just laid there, crying, until his eyelids felt heavy enough and he could sleep.

Once Silver awoke, something felt off... Instead of his bed he felt grass on him, and a cool breeze flowing in his face. Silver blinked a few times and sat up.

He looked around, confused. He was in a weird forest, the sky was entirely bitch black, not even a star. The bark of the trees were red, with blue leaves. The grass was a strange dark turquoise color as well.

Silver was now a bit panicked, where the hell was he?! Was this a dream? A NIGHTMARE?! Silver began to breath heavily, looking around frantically.

Silver pinched himself, slapped his face, anything to wake up, but nothing worked, and this felt too real anyways. Silver was on the verge of tears as he began to shake, he slowly stood up, but almost fell over from being too shaky.

Silver hugged himself and took a step forward, looking around cautiously, trying to make sense of this place. He took a few more steps, slowly getting to a regular walking speed.

He just looked around, absolutely confused and scared, he still couldn't tell whether it was a dream or not..? After what felt like hours, which in reality was only about 3 minutes of walking, Silver paused and saw something in the distance.

It looked like a purple color. Silver tried not to make any sound in case it was someone or something that would hurt him. After taking a few steps closer, Silver recognized the person. Candle...

Silver was about to run over in excitement, until he realized... Candle was laying on the ground on her side, mouth slightly agape, her eyes not even there, her eye sockets were completely gutted... and bloody...

Silver felt like he had stopped breathing for a moment as he saw what was once his best friend in front of him... lifeless... Silver began shaking again, and crying. He ran over to Candles body and fell to his knees next to it.

He examined it, trying his best to not throw up. He noticed a very bloody hole on her back, right in the middle of her spine area. Tears poured from Silvers eyes as he tried to make sense of it all... until...

Silver heard a snap behind him. He gasped and turned around, and saw... Balloon... Balloon had accidentally stepped on a tree branch while sneaking over, and alerted Silver.
