Sand
Instantly all attention shifted forward.Through the thin mist, something pale was visible several meters ahead. A human figure was lying motionless. Kurt narrowed his eyes, and without hesitation, he stepped out of formation. "It's someone from our university,” he announced, and several students immediately started following."Stop!" Kurt's shout exploded through the forest.Everyone froze again, and the seriousness in his voice sent chills through the group."No one move,” he muttered as regret laced his voice.Silence followed the group, and Mason watched as he slowly lowered his gaze, which moved downward, and his face was masked with pure fear."This isn't normal ground,” his voice cracked."What do you mean?" Mason muttered. Kurt didn't answer immediately; instead, he carefully shifted his weight, and the movement caused the soil beneath him to ripple like water.Mason's eyes widened. "No," he muttered.Kurt swallowed. "This is sinking sand."The words settled into the group, a
Next Terminal
Mason rose to his feet, the pain of slamming to the floor still evident. He turned to the tiger, lying faintly on the ground. Even with it being near death, it was as dangerous as ever. Mason adjusted his gaze to the girl staring at him in shock. He dropped his gaze to the uniforms and the tags on them. They weren’t from his university but rather Avaris University students. For whatever reason he had saved their competitor. The thought of a student actually dying in such activities made his blood turn cold. He didn't know who approved the university's participation in such a brutal course. “Move to the terminal,” his voice was hoarse and The girl immediately snapped from their shock, averting their gaze from the tiger to Mason. With a nod, they moved their shaking legs into the safe zone. “Is it dead?” Mason heard a voice call but didn’t bother to answer. He led the way back to the safe zone. He slipped his hand into the last compartment, reloading his short gun. He glanced back
Cry For Help
With death only a few meters away, horror spread across the students’ faces like a fast-moving shadow. The color in their skin drained, leaving them pale and frozen in place. Screams of horror filled the air, but their legs were rooted to the ground.The tiger’s low growl rolled through the air like distant thunder.At that moment running was useless when a full-grown predator had already chosen you as prey, and turning your back only meant dying tired.For a moment, the world seemed to hold its breath. Then instinct took over, and Mason moved before anyone could react. He snatched the shotgun from Festos’ frozen hands. The metal felt heavy and colder than he expected, and his heart pounded violently in his ears as he stepped out of the glowing boundary of the safe zone.Immediately, the automated system’s voice echoed again.[Warning. You are leaving the safe zone.]Mason didn’t stop; he couldn’t. ‘Please work, please work,’ he muttered to himself. He swiftly dropped on one knee, co
Hunter And The Prey
The word rested heavily in the air like a suffocating cold blanket, and for a moment, the world itself seemed to pause.Then the slow, heavy growl of the tiger rolled through the forest. It deep vibration crawled through the wet ground, to the students’ boots, then into their bones.Every single person froze.“W… What the fuck!” Peter’s voice cracked as his legs trembled beneath him. “It’s a it's a fucking tiger!” He screamed.No one told him to be quiet; no one even dared to breathe.The beast stepped out from the darkness of the trees, its massive striped body gliding through the mist like death itself had taken shape. The muscles underneath its fur were clear and its amber eyes glowed in the faint light, locked onto them with a cold, calculating hunger."Think, Mason!" his mind snapped back to life. Using the power of the celestial system in front of everyone would be another danger; instead, he snapped his head toward the weapons compartment beside the terminal.Behind him, the
Silent Noise
The sharp crack of a breaking branch shattered the silence of the forest, and everyone snapped their head toward the sound.The group froze instantly, and for a moment, no one dared to breathe. The forest itself seemed to pause, as if every insect and bird had fallen silent to listen.Mason felt his pulse pounding loudly in his ears. His fingers tightened around the small LED light in his hand. The other students’ lights trembled as they cut through the darkness toward the bushes ahead.Even Kurt didn’t move. The calm confidence that had surrounded him earlier had faded into tense stillness.They waited for an unknown number of seconds, and when nothing emerged from the bushes, from the back of the formation, Max released a long breath he had been holding."Damn, I thought something was actually there,” Draco muttered quietly. The tension in the group slowly loosened, but no one completely relaxed.“Let’s keep moving,” Kurt said at last, his voice now steady but low. “Remember, we ha
A Blind Walk
The crowd immediately scattered into several groups. Names were being called, and students hurried around as panic quietly spread among them. Some clutched their bracelets while others glanced nervously toward the forest entrance, as if expecting something to step out of the shadows at any moment.Mason stood among them, his eyes shifting between the dark mouth of the forest and the bracelet resting on his wrist.He didn’t need a stethoscope to know what everyone around him was feeling. He could practically hear it. Dozens of hearts hammering violently inside chests. Fear had a sound, and right now, it echoed everywhere.“The six of us should always walk together,” a deep voice suddenly spoke beside him.The boy who had been nominated as their group leader stepped forward. His name was Kurt. His shoulders were broad, and his large frame towered over most of the other students. Unlike the others, his expression remained calm, though a faint crease rested between his brows.“I haven’t b
