luke was angered and frustrated with the girl's disappearance, and decided that it was time for him to seriously take matters into his own hands.

he pulled his laptop out of its bag, and began to do his own research on badlands.

'badlands articles.'

luke's eyes scanned the search page, and clicked on the first link.

'make 2015 the year you visit badlands!

plan your trip here!'

luke played with his lip ring, and wondered if this would be the site to help him learn about badlands.

he decided against it, and pressed the link under it.

'badlands! exposed.'

luke raised an eyebrow and continued to scroll.

10 reasons why you shouldn't visit badlands

1) it's not child friendly! the many casinos and-

luke stopped reading there. this was obviously a list for families visiting.

however, an advertisement on the corner of the page caught luke's eye.

'already in badlands? we can help.'

soon enough, luke was indulged in a site filled with conspiracy theories and ranting strangers.

he scrolled through the 'top rated' part and came across with this:

'letter to you all:

stuck in badlands? fucking good luck. you'll walk out with one limb missing, trust me, i know.

i managed to find my way out of badlands, and when i told my friend about the strange ass trip i had just been on, he laughed at me. apparently, there's no place called badlands.

of course at first i didn't take his word for it, i mean, i had been there myself, but when i googled it at my own home, nothing came up.

that's how i know you're there.

badlands doesn't exist out of badlands.

i would type out everything i did to get out of badlands, but my wife is starting to stare over my shoulder.

so this is just a warning for now.

but my tip is to find others like you.

and send for help.'

luke was stunned by the odd "article" he had just read.

he ran a hand through his hair and exhaled, wondering what to believe.

"fuck you, mom. fuck you for sending me here to forget what happened. this is fucking worse," luke muttered angrily.

luke closed his laptop in frustration, having no clue what to do now.

to someone else, this anonymous person may have seemed completely insane, and a couple of months ago, luke would agree.

with these circumstances, luke just couldn't bring himself to. he believed the person.
