Skyler sat in the large tent, an owl hooting in a tree outside. She'd went camping with her Aunt Kaerey and sister, Claire. Of course she regretted even going, since she hated camping and wasn't the outdoor type. Skyler was on her bed, a book clenched in her left hand. She looked at the title, 'FilmAndActor', yes spelled like that. Sighing, she glanced at where 17 year old Claire slept. Skyler was 15, but didn't mind being younger. She heard crickets and frogs outside, getting up to open the tent. She looked out, getting a bit frightened, since she'd always been paranoid that some strange creature would eat them alive. Going back to bed, she wished for sleep. Soon she thankfully did. Waking up the next bright morning, her Aunt Kaerey was up, and outside. "Well good morning Skyler!", Aunt Kaerey brightly said, as soon as Skyler got out of the tent. Claire was still sleeping. "Hi.." She muttered. "Guess what? WE WILL BE STAYING HERE TONIGHT TOO! Your Uncle Gerard is coming!" She'd been in a good mood as always. Skyler just rolled her eyes, and soon yawning. Aunt Kaerey shrugged, and started making breakfast. She'd packed food, as always. Aunt Kaerey was making cereal for everyone, instead of pancakes since they had no microwave or outlets. Claire's head suddenly poked out of the tent, her blue eyed gaze fixed on the cereal Aunt Kaerey was making. Her dirty blonde hair tangled, she made her way towards Skyler. Claire suddenly whispered something to her. "Um..Aunt Kaerey? Can Skyler and I go on a nature walk before Uncle Gerard gets here?" She turned, looking at the two young girls. "Go ahead, but bring this with you." Aunt Kaerey took an actual knife and pistol out of her large pocket. The two quickly grabbed them, and ran off towards Kadori Trail. Skyler held the knife, and of course Claire held the gun. After about 20 minutes into the walk, they came upon a clearing. Five trees that were really close together were in front of them. Skylar smiled, "Come on Claire!" She ran ahead of her, passing the trees. "No, WAIT!" Claire's voice faded. Then for Skylar, everything went black.
