Emily’s pov:

I scream and giggle at the same time as I ride down the snow hill. “Don’t fall over” I hear boyfriend Dan yell out behind me. I roll my eyes and finally I’m down from the snow covered hill. I put my brown hair up in a ponytail and walk to the cabin where Dan’s friend Phil is staying. I finally make it there and walk in; I sit down and sigh in relief. Phil just sits there ignoring me. “Want to go to the ski lift tonight?” I hear Dan’s voice ring out. We all nod and get our coats, beanie’s and shoes on. We all walk out and head to the snow lift. “Oh...” I say looking down at my wallet. “What?” Dan and Phil say at the same time. “I only have enough money for one of us” I reply. “Well the guard is a guy and you’re a girl Emily so try and get us in” Phil says. I look at him confused then I finally get it. “What? Seriously?” I asked completely shocked that he would want me to flirt with him. I feel two large hands wrap around my shoulders. I look up, it’s Dan. He smiles down at me and I smile back. “Come on honey” Dan says motioning me to the security guard. “Do I have to” I whine not wanting to do it. “Yes” Phil says rudely. Dan nods. I groan, “Fine” I say hesitantly, I start walking to the guy with a cigarette in his mouth. “Can I have one?” I ask hoping he would say yes. He blows out the smoke and nods. He hands a cigarette to me and I gladly take it and light it up. “So here the deal, a couple of my girlfriends and I haven’t got a lot of money and we had to come a long way to get here” I say a bit scared he was going to decline. “What’s the point?” he snaps back. “Can we get on for half the money?” my light voice started cracking due to the cold weather. He finishes his cigarette and flicks it away. “I could lose my job” he replies. I look at him with puppy eyes. “Please” I ask my voice getting softer at each word.  He hesitates and starts shifting. “Fine?” he says more like a question than an answer. I jump up and down clapping my hands; I motion the guys to come over. “Thank you so much” I say to the guard. The guys come over. I look at his name tag, “Louis” I say quietly to myself. “Yes?” Louis replies. “Oh nothing. I just read your name tag”. He nods and smiles but his smile soon disappears as he sees the guys standing behind me.  I turned around ready to sit down, I feel the cold metal push against my legs and I sit down. I smile a nervous smile to Louis and he hits the familiar green button and we go up. The full moon making a slight gloom into the dark night. We went up further and I saw other people go down the hill.

Louis’s pov:

I watch as the brown haired girl and her so called “girlfriends” go slowly up the hill on a metal seat. “Louise” I hear a raspy voice say behind me. I turn to see Harry my best friend and work mate. “The boss wants you in his office” he says. I look at him confused. “Why?” I ask my voice cracking. “You have to fill in on Saturday” he replies. “What? Saturday is my day off” I feel may face getting red, I ball my fist and clench my teeth. I grunt and stomp off making large foot prints in the white covered snow.

Harry’s pov:

I look over the hill and see three people ride down. “Is it just you guys?” I ask the three young blokes. They nod and walk off. I sigh in relief and press the familiar red button. Everything shuts down.

Emily’s pov:

I hear the rusty steel make a screeching sound and we stop moving. “Oh come on” I yell out with an annoyed tone in my voice. “Let’s just wait out” Dan speaks up with a shake in his voice. I look at my fingers and they are blue and frozen.  I start shaking and my body feels numb. “Oh my god” I hear Dab yell. I look at him confused. “What?” I asked clearly confused “you have frost bite on your cheek” he replies. I bring my shaky hands up to my face and scratch the sore. I hiss in pain. “It’s freezing” Phil stutters. I look at his shaking body and sigh. “Are we going to up here all night?” I ask. The boys shrug.

Dan’s pov:

I look down and dangle my legs off the seat. “Maybe we could jump” I say to Emily and Phil. “are you insane?” I hears Emily’s voice ring out. ‘it’s worth a try” I reply back. My breathing starts to pick up and I pull the safety pole up. I wiggle forward slightly. I jump feet first. My legs touch the ground and I hear a crack. I look down my knee has just pooped out of my skin. I fall to the ground clenching my teeth and grunting. The pain is unbearable. The white coloured snow is now soaked in red, my bone sticking out and my leg turned the other way. I look up to see Emily and crying. “Oh my god” she looks over to the dark shadowy woods. My eyes squint in confusion; I look over to the woods and see a wolf with red eyes. My eyes go wide and I try to crawl away but my body was to numb. The wolf starts crawling to me, its eyes stare into mine and before I knew it, the wolf pounced on me. I feel the sharp teeth pierce into my skin making blood drool out of my fresh mark.  “Don’t let her look” I scream out to Phil. I see him freeze and stare down at me. His eyes are wide and mouth is open, I saw the tears stream down his face as he watches. I feel more bits in my arm. I look down and my arm in gone. I look over to see the wolf eating my arm. I feel drowsy and faint, soon everything went black.

Phil’s pov:

I watch as my best friend got ripped apart by a wolf. His eyes close and then I know he’s dead. I feel the tears brim my eyes then my cheeks are soaked. I look over to Emily and see her balling. “Are you okay?” I ask her, she looks at me with her eyes red and puffy cheeks. “No, you?” she croaked out with her voice cracking. “No, I feel like the world as just came down on me” I reply.

Emily’s pov:

I hear a screeching sound; I look up and see the metal rope is starting to break. “Phil” I say shakily. He looks at me, I motion to the rope. He looks up and sees its breaking. “We need to get to another seat” he says a bit quickly. I look at him confused. “How?” I ask. He looks over to the seat behind us and gets on his knees. The seat wobbles and I hold on. Slowly he stands up and grabs the metal rope that connected to all the seats. “Be careful” I say in a serious tone. He puts one leg off and jumps off swinging on the rope. He sighs in relief and starts climbing. I watch in a amazement. “Almost there” I yell out. Phil screams. “What’s wrong” I ask with a worried tone. He takes one hand off and looks at it. “The metal has cut through my gloves and through my hand” he grunts out. I try and get up but I couldn’t. I look up with my lips slightly apart and see him struggle. “I can’t hold on any longer” he yells out. “Don’t let go” I yell back. “I’m sorry, I have to” he lets go and falls, I scream as he goes down. I see his leg break and he screams out in pain. “I’m going to get help” he cries out and crawls away. I feel the tears brim my eyes knowing I’m going to die. “Emily” I hear a faint soft voice say. I open my eyes and see my mother. “Mum? “I ask the person floating in the snow. “Close your eyes and grab my hand” she says. “But how? Your dead” I reply. She smiles. “Close your eyes” I close my eyes and fall into a dark slumber.

Phil’s pov:

I climb my way through the snow seeing a blood trail. I follow the trail and see a wolf tearing into Dan’s arm. I try to avoid it but it saw me. I can’t do this anymore. I lay down and feel cold, I take deep breathes and try breath but I couldn’t soon I couldn’t handle it and I closed my eyes…
