She's freaking out.

Nick's talking with the other counselors in the corner.

He counts the kids running in.

Where's Ziggy? Where's Cindy? Where's 𝘛𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘺?

The lights go out. Everyone screams.

"Everyone stay calm! Everything's alright.." Nick reacsures the campers.

"How many? " Gary asks. Nora stays close to Nick.

"23..."

"That's.. 30 missing at least."

Nick walks over to the phone. "Where's Cindy, Kurt, Joan?"

Gary sighs. "I don't know... I haven't seen anyone. Shit, maybe they're looking for us."

Nick tries to call the cops, only to find out the line's dead. He slams the phone back in it's place.

The lights come back on.

Nora can't do this. She can't just stand here and let this happen.

She begins to walk towards the doors of the Messhall.

Nick stops her, holding her arm firmly. "Nora.." He warns.

"I need to find them. I'm not just going to 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘥 here.."

"I'll take care of it. Me and Gary will go."

Nora shakes her head slightly and tries to get passed Nick.

He stops her again, holding both of her arms.

"Please... 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘺 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦.." He places a hand on her cheek, brushing some hair from her face.

"I'm not going to let you get hurt." He says.

Nora nods slowly.

He pulls away and grabs a flashlight. Gray follows.

Nora watches as they make they're way out of the Messhall.

She waits a few minutes before walking out too.

She's not just going to wait here.

She needs to help. She needs to find them.

She needs to find Ziggy. She's her best friend.

She walks around the camp, calling out everyone's names.

"Cindy! Ziggy...!!?" She yells.

She stays silent for a moment. She walks near the outhouse.
