I lean all my weight on the thick wooden door behind me, digging my heels into the creaky floor to try and stay strong. I can feel the old rusted knob digging into my side as the door threatens to open. Thud. Another hit. There are too many of them, way too many for four teenagers to fend off. Thud. I look to my left at Alex, she looks nervous and that never happens, she jumps as each of the things launch themselves at the cabin. Alex has always been the brave one, I have only seen her let her guard down a few times in my life, and I guess this is one of them. Thud. Thud. The things keep throwing themselves at the door, each hit rattling the hinges and making my heart skip a beat, I can feel every hit through the wood. Thud. Whatever these things are, they aren't normal, and they're strong, vicious and out to kill. Thud. They have no intentions of stopping, and there is no way we can outlast them. Crack.
