CHAPTER 1: Lost in the forest

The trees around me stand like dark sentinels, their twisted branches intertwining to form an impenetrable canopy above my head. Night has long fallen, and the whisper of the wind through the leaves is the only sound comforting me. I feel trapped and hunted, like prey in a deadly game. I don't know how I ended up here. It all started two days ago when I decided to escape reality and leave behind the monotonous life that was consuming me.

I left my small town without a trace, abandoning everything, including my name. I became a fugitive in my own story. I sought refuge in this dense forest, hoping to find the peace and solitude I desperately needed. But something went wrong. I never imagined that my escape would lead me to a predator, a psychopath who takes pleasure in hunting his prey.

At first, I didn't notice it, thinking the stealthy noises and fleeting shadows were just products of my imagination. But as the hours passed, I realized I was indeed being pursued. My heart raced, every twig snapping under my feet, plunging me into growing paranoia. I huddled in a small clearing, hoping to escape my invisible pursuer. I lit a modest campfire to warm myself and protect against the surrounding darkness.

CHAPTER 2: TheDeadly Pursuit

My tired eyes scanned the darkness, searching for any glimmer of hope. What I didn't know was that this glimmer of hope was also a glimmer of madness. Time passed, and my senses sharpened. That's when I started hearing a voice—a distant, almost inaudible murmur. It whispered words to me—promises of salvation but also sly warnings. I realized that this voice was mine, or at least the voice of the person I used to be.

Days turned into weeks, and I delved deeper into this inhospitable forest. The voice in my head became more insistent, urging caution and whispering warnings to me.

I thought it was my paranoia, but something was amiss. I survived the forest's fauna and flora, but I remained on high alert, knowing that the solitude I had immersed myself in was not without danger.

My heart pounded at every moment, and my breath was a silent whisper in the darkness. The forest had become a sinister labyrinth, and my survival depended on my ability to stay one step ahead of the invisible threats that lurked.

CHAPTER 3: The dark secret of the forest

Weeks passed, and I continued my quest to survive in this hostile forest. The voice in my head became my only companion, guiding me through the growing darkness of this strange place. I felt hunted and watched, but I couldn't identify the source of this feeling. Each day brought its share of mysteries. Strange signs, displaced objects, and fleeting sounds in the darkness.

The tension was palpable, and terror settled within me. Who or what was hiding in the shadows of this forest? One evening, as the twilight faded, I glimpsed a fleeting silhouette among the trees. I tried to follow it, but it vanished like a mirage. My heart raced because I finally had proof that I wasn't alone here.

The voice in my head whispered constant warnings, cautioning me not to trust what I saw. It claimed that the danger came from outside, from a faceless tracker seeking to find me. But something told me the answer was much more complex. Every night, I barricaded myself in an improvised hideout, listening to the sounds of the forest and watching for any sign of my pursuer.

My mind was stretched to the limit, with every shadow becoming a potential threat. As days turned into months, I began to uncover disturbing clues. Fragments of memory seeped into my consciousness. Memories of violence, hunting, and sadistic pleasure.

I saw myself committing terrible acts that I couldn't ignore. The truth became clearer and clearer. It wasn't someone else hunting me in the forest. It was myself. I was the killer, the elusive predator pushing me to the brink.

CHAPTER 4: The final chapter

The truth had finally caught up with me. I was the monster that had haunted this forest, the ruthless predator tracking its prey. Memories of my cruel deeds haunted me, and I could no longer escape reality. The voice in my head was not a benevolent companion but a distorted reflection of my madness.

It pushed me further into the abyss of darkness. Every day, I felt more alien to myself. Despair had embraced me, and I made an irrevocable decision. In the deepest part of the forest, I prepared for what would become my last hunt.

I knew I couldn't escape my madness, so I chose to end this endless agony. Before committing the irreversible act, I want to address those of you who have followed my twisted narrative and who have discovered the truth about me through my journal. Farewell. May you find the peace I never knew...

EPILOGUE: The endless obsession

"In the heart of the forest, right where I had planned to end my own life, darkness enveloped me. The shadows seemed to close in on me, pulling me deeper into their grasp. I prepared for what would become my last hunt, but it wasn't an end.

It was a new beginning. Meanwhile, miles away, two police officers examined a macabre journal found in an old abandoned cabin deep in the forest. The words written in that journal told a terrifying story, that of a killer who had eluded justice for years.

"Have you read these lines, Inspector?" one of the officers asked his colleague.

The inspector nodded. "It's a chilling tale, that's for sure. But there's something off."

"What is it?" the other officer asked, perplexed.

The inspector pointed to the last sentence of the journal:

"Before committing the irreversible act, I prepared for what would become my last hunt."

The two officers looked at each other, finally realizing the terrifying truth. It wasn't a suicide but a definitive plunge into madness. The killer hadn't ended his own life; he had chosen to continue his hunt, to track his prey in the unfathomable darkness of the forest. The forest kept its secrets, and the predator is continuing the hunt."
