Creatures of the Night | Mike x Fem Reader
A year has passed since Hannah and Beth Washington vanished into the snowy depths of Blackwood Mountain, leaving behind a fractured group of friends haunted by their memory. When Josh Washington calls his old friends back to the lodge to honor his sisters' legacy, he insists that they celebrate the way Hannah and Beth would have wanted - by rekindling their tradition of laughter, mischief, and memories.
But Y/n has their own reasons for keeping the past buried. Holding onto secrets they've never shared; they've become a master of keeping others at arm's length. What they don't know is that Michael 'Mike' Munroe, always the life of the party, has been watching them more closely than they realize - drawn to the hidden depths beneath their calm exterior.
As tensions rise and old wounds are reopened, the group finds that the mountain's secrets run deeper than they ever imagined. The lingering guilt from last year's tragic prank, the strained relationships, and the unspoken feelings hidden in the group's past begin to bubble to the surface. And when the shadows of the past collide with the present, the friends realize that something far more sinister may be waiting for them on Blackwood Mountain.
Old friendships will be tested, new tensions will arise, and not everyone will make it through the night unscathed. Because up here, some secrets are buried in the snow - and some things are better left forgotten.

The story unfolds during the events of the game, with adjustments to the plot to suit my narrative. It may also extend into chapters set after the characters escape the mountain, exploring potential developments that I believe *could* naturally occur.
