FIELD TRIP

So, here's how it goes: a normal school field trip, right? Except it mutates into a straight-up bloodbath in some off-the-grid town run by lunatics in masks, all hopped up on their own twisted rituals. The cast? A bunch of standout kids-every kind of personality and identity you can imagine-suddenly shoved into the world's most violent group project.
It's not just about getting out alive. It's about watching your friends fall apart, or worse, come back as something you barely recognize. This town's got secrets-the nasty kind. There's this thing called "The Rebirth"-sounds spiritual, but nah, it just spits out dead students as actual monsters.
Ashton McKinly starts out quiet, closeted, honestly kind of breakable. Then life throws everything at him-betrayal, violence, the works. He claws his way through the carnage, torches the whole damn place during the Rebirth Ceremony, thinking that'll do the trick.
Ha. No such luck.
Because when the smoke clears, there are those buses. Fresh batch of students, faces pressed to the glass. The horror? Just pressed "Repeat."
It never stops. It never did.
