Franks POV:

The guys didn't bother coming after me so that's good. I didn't expect them to, well, maybe Mikey would be concerned for his brother too. Or for me finding out something they both know but won't tell me.

I try to look for traces of Gerard.

I look down to see footprints. Not saying they must be Gerards, but they do start from the bus and lead somewhere. It's quite muddy outside.

Now, I know what your thinking. Why am I jumping to conclusions? Well, Gerards changed more than his behaviour. He's always avoiding or bailing out halfway through meetings, band rehearsal and even sometimes the rare 'bands day out' days, where we go somewhere, just the band, maybe out to some restaurant or arcade. His attitude seems a bit more aggressive and quiet. H'se shy, unlike himself.

"What the?"

I mutter under my breath, at this small forest of trees. Oh god stupid Frank, what other kind of forest doesn't have trees?

The forest looks small, but a tiny bit scary. Ever since I played slender, forests have creeped me out way more than they should.

Anyway, I should be hunting in forests by now, I just don't like to. I prefer night time in fields with long grass. At least no one can see me. Wow I sound like such a creep, okay focus, just go into this creepy scary place filled with insects and creatures, maybe bears and-
Stop it Frank.

I slowly make my way through the thorny branches, surprisingly not getting cut.

I see a clearing. It looks kind of like a fairy fort. You know what they say, never cut wood in a fairy fort, it leads to a curse. Many people have because of cutting wood one places like this.

Wait, is that Gerard? What's he doing?

"GERARD"

I see him turn around, blood all around his mouth and lips. What has he been doing? Did he just kill that deer?! I am really starting to regret wanting to know.

"F-f-Frank?"

Oh yep. You've just been busted big time bitch. Haha, let's hear him explain himself out of this. Where's the popcorn when you need it?

I wait patiently for Gerards excuse. Not that I think he has one or anything. It looks like he's a vampire. And if not, some freak who eats living creatures not even cooked. Wait, could Gerard be a cannibal?

"Frank I-"

"Gerard, it's not the fact you are, maybe, a vampire or freak, but I feel kind of hurt you never told me. We tell each other literally everything. What are you anyway?"
