As they walked away from the cabin, their steps lead them deeper into the woods. They needed some time alone, to process what had happened and to come to terms with the magnitude of their victory. It was then that Alexis spoke up, her voice barely more than a whisper. "I think... I think we need to tell someone about this. About what we found, and what we did. We can't keep this a secret anymore."

Mia and James exchanged glances, the weight of responsibility settling heavily on their shoulders. They knew that revealing the truth would change everything, but they also knew that it was the right thing to do. They nodded in agreement, and together, the three friends turned back toward the city, ready to face the consequences of their actions and to stand together against the darkness.

As they emerged from the woods, the city stretched out before them, bustling with life and activity. The sun was setting, painting the sky in hues of orange and pink, and the air was filled with the sounds of laughter and the hum of traffic.

But despite the idyllic scene, the three friends couldn't shake the sense of foreboding that had settled over them. They knew that what they had seen and experienced in that cabin would change their lives forever.

They made their way to the nearest police station, their hearts pounding in their chests as they recounted their harrowing tale to the incredulous officers. The authorities listened intently, their faces a mix of disbelief and horror, as they pieced together the events that had transpired. Eventually, they took Mia, James, and Alexis into a private room, where they could share their findings and discuss a plan of action.

As they sat down, the lead investigator, Detective Williams, began to fill them in on similar cases that had been reported across the country. There were rumors of a cult-like group, operating in the shadows, performing rituals and summoning demons. The group was believed to be responsible for a string of grisly murders and disappearances.

The room fell silent as Detective Williams showed them pictures of the victims, their faces twisted into expressions of unimaginable terror and pain. It was then that Alexis knew they had to do something. They couldn't just sit by and let this continue.

"We need to find them," she said, her voice steady and determined. "We need to put a stop to this."

Mia and James exchanged glances, nodding in agreement. They knew the risks they were taking, but they also knew that they had to try. Together, they began to formulate a plan, outlining their strategy and dividing up the tasks that lay ahead. They would need to gather information, track down leads, and prepare for a confrontation that could very well cost them their lives.

As they worked, they couldn't help but feel a newfound sense of purpose and camaraderie. They were no longer just investigators or friends, but a united force against an evil that threatened to consume them all. They pored over files and interviewed witnesses, tracking down leads that seemed to lead nowhere and dead ends that turned out to be vital pieces of the puzzle.
