As they reached the city the news of the return spread the very night. Everyone showered the kids with praises. Their parents were proud of them yet they scolded them because of the dangers that lurked in the forest at night. Aiden met his father in their house. He had only a drop of sweat dripping down his eyebrows corners. He asked,"Have you been out somewhere?" looking suspiciously at him. " Well of course,I went to find you people. Lurking around the forest, I was scared."answered his father without hesitation.

Even after their parents forbid them to go back in the forest, Aiden knew they had to go back in the forest. For sure they hadn't discovered the forests secrets entirely. They made a plan to go in the forest again. They made sure that no one gets to know about their plans. It was night again. In the serene yet disturbing silence they could hear their footsteps clearly. They had to be careful because the thing they saw the day before might not have been gone. In the night the forest seemed lonely and patiently waited for its next prey to go wandering inside. As they moved they saw no sign of movement whatsoever.

In the distance they could here the animals growling. Maintaining their sight in all directions, they moved forward at a slow pace. The forest looked so alluring at night that they kept on walking hoping to find the cabin again. But it had become extremely difficult to find it again because it was pure luck with which they had found it. As it became difficult to see they switched on the torch that they brought with them. Tossing it's light in all directions they knew one thing for sure that they were lost.

The forest did not look so attractive now. None of them wanted to be there. They were scared and filled with anxiety. They reached a clearing. They were surrounded by trees and had no idea where they were. They had a feeling that something was going to happen. A cool breeze filled with mystical air went over them giving them goosebumps. Even in an open space in the freshness of the forest they started feeling suffocated. The three made a circle with their backs facing the others. They anxiously waited for something to happen.
