Jaylyn and Howie ran to Camie and Leni's house as fast as they could. Howie has the dairy in one hand and the pictures of the bunny and the bunny. The father came and answer the door. "May I help you fellas?" He was a tall man with overalls and blonde hair. "Uh, where's Camie and Leni?" He looked around to look. "Maybe in their tree house" They thanked him and climbed the ladder to the tree house. "Oh hey I didn't expect you guys to come and visit." Leni said with a smile.
"I found this diary. It belonged to Lillie Anderson." Leni grabbed the diary from Jaylyn. She flipped through the pages and read a part, "Dear diary, my brother has appeared to be missing just like my mother. Where did they go? Are they mad at me? Do they not love me?" Leni looked at Camie. "It was all over the news, when the Andersons went missing and you live in their old house." Howie looked as if he wanted to cry. Leni bent down to Howie's level, "Howie go and play with Cameron." Howie nodded and ran to the other tree house. "My mom went missing last night and the car is still there." Camie came over to Jaylyn and put his arm over his shoulder. "You know what could've happened right?" Jaylyn nods wanting to cry. "The wendigo usually goes after the next person in the family. It starts with the wife, then the husband and there goes the children. So be careful." Leni goes to Camie and leads him to the laptop they have. While Jaylyn stands there wanting the fall from the tree house. He wanted to just give up everything. "Jaylyn, everything is gonna be ok. Maybe you should stay over here tonight." Jaylyn nods. "Yeah, that sounds good."
That night everything was quiet... to quiet...
In the kitchen, "why would she up and leave me like that?" Joe questioning himself while sitting at the kitchen table. "Joe.." a voice said faintly. Then a giggle. "What do you want Howie?" There was another giggle and then went quiet again. "Stop it Howie!.. Or Jaylyn!" He ran upstairs to find Howie and Jaylyn gone. "Where did they go?" The sound of a little girl behind him. Joe turns around in shock to find a little girl with a wolf skull as a mask. "I want my BunBun." She says angry. Joe steps back a few steps and makes his way to the stairs. "How did you get in my house?""Well instead of abusing everything that loves you or you love, maybe you should show more love. But I hate to say it's a little late now cuz ur partner is gone and so are your children. Take this as an inspiration, like a new start." Joe nodded. "I'm sorry for what I have done. I just want my family back." The little girl takes his hand and inspects it. "This hand has done nothing but trouble." The little girl bites through his hand. "you get to go see or wife... maybe not"
