Dear diary, I lived a good life. Many adventures, much joy, making friends.
I just didnt expect it to end like this...
It all started this morning, just a normal morning, i got up and got ready for school like i always did. On the way to school i bumped into a friend of mine and walked the rest with him talking about outdoor ed. Reached school nomal first 2 periods of science and maths, and only had 3 periods of outdoor ed for the rest of the day.
3rd period started so we were now in outdoor ed and we have been informed that we were going on a hike on Dartmoor, little did we know at the time it would go horrible like it did. On the way to Dartmoor, we had been told what groups we were in and i was group 2, i played on my tablet wasting time for the about 30 min trip.
We reached Dartmoor and my group had been dropped off and were given a map and told to go to each point marked on the map, harder than it seemed to us. There were 10 points we had to go to each fairly spread apart and was about a 10 mile hike. Spoiler alert, we got to 3.
After we reached 3 we had decided to cut through a forest to reach no.4 instead of walk around, simple idea so we followed through with it. It was only till 10 minutes later we had realised we took a few wrong turns and got lost, no way to contact any staff in the middle of a massive forest with no paths in sight.
We decided to walk in 1 direction for what felt like an hour and still didnt reach any path or any sign of recent human activity. We had no food with us or drinks so we decided to set up camp. What i witnessed whilst i thought everyone was asleep is something i wish i hadnt.
Rhys, on of the group members, hacking away with a crafted shank at Harrison, another member of the group. I was horrified to see such a scene as gruesome as this, rhys was covers in blood from his waist down and his hands. Safe to say Harrison was officially dead.
I stayed awake that whole night, after witnessing such a scene as that i was to scared to go to sleep, i think i heard Rhys go back to his crafted tent built out of leaves and twigs definitely couldn't handle a gust of wind or rain but luckily the tall trees surrounding us stopped wind and rain from reaching us.
I heard a snapping of a branch as if someone stepped on it in the distance, i look up to see kallum, the youngest in the group, signalling me to follow. I silently make my way to him and he whispers "we need to get out of here, its not safe around Rhys, i witnessed something i wish i hadnt and i wish not to explain for your own concern"
I understood he saw exactly what i did, i follow kallum though the forest and to our success we find a path, thank fuck. We followed it, but it appears that someone is following us, it was Rhys. We broke from a walk to a sprint whislt being chased, luckily for me he went for kallum, i can only hope rn he got away safe but i think that distant scream suggests otherwise....
Im writing this in hopes of someone finding this, im up a tree and he knows, its only a matter of time till he gets m---
