• The End : THE FOREST •

I couldn't believe what I was seeing. At this point, i thought that my mind was playing games with me. So I did what anyone else would do. I turned to Sally and pointed swiftly at luna's fingers. Seeing her expression. It's was confirmed. It wasn't my mind playing games. But something else has been playing with us.

' Let's not go through the shortcut! It's dangerous! Let me drive' Roman argued.

Kai and Drake were getting angrier at Roman as the moments were passing.

' Don't listen to Roman guys! He's just confused in this situation! Let's go through the shortcut I suggested!' Luna was getting visibly aggressive now.

As Roman glanced at mine and Sally's faces . He got the idea, that we knew. He motioned us to distract luna.

' Fine. Follow through that frekin shortcut.' Roman backed away.

' Where's your thumb ring, Luna?' I asked, looking at her empty thumb fingers.

Everyone looked at her finger, and it seems that something clicked their mind.

Luna looked at me. She had a blank stare, silently looking at me. That gaze was enough to make my stomach churn in terror. I was frozen. Just as I thought I was almost on the verge of trembling. Roman opened the door where Luna was sitting at. And, he dragged her out of the car. He threw her as far as he could and simultaneously Sally shouted at Drake to start the car in the opposite direction. Out of the forest.

As the engine started, Drake took a U turn and simultaneously Roman jumped into the car.

Everything was so chaotic. Our hearts were beating fast , threatening to burst out of our body.

Body high on adrenaline.

After we made a considerable distance.

' Did I tell you? There's another rumour. It says, those creatures can shapeshift ,turning into their prey' Sally filled the silence.

'How didn't we notice. Luna...To begin with ,she had no thumb fingers since birth' I added.

' But how did you know? Roman.. You knew she was not luna before we even noticed her finger'

' Luna. She's dead. When I circled the car, I saw her body.' Roman replied

It must've killed her when she jumped out of the car after the crash..' Kai added with a hint of sadness.

' That means. All that time... She wasn't luna sitting with us. '

' If we would've taken her shortcut..' i trailed. Nobody dared to complete the sentence. What would've happened If we would've taken the shortcut Luna— or should I say that unknown creature had suggested….through the forest.

No information about this forest and its mysterious creature was available. Because nobody survived them to tell the tales, just rumors circulating, that is till now.

But the problem is, who's going to beleive us?
