Varnished wood gleams sterile under the dim light, a stark contrast to the dark, intimidating forest pressing against the cabin windows. Wind howls, battering branches against the glass, causing Kokichi’s shoulders to tense, his shirt pulling taut over his frame. He isn’t afraid of the woods, but the missing axe from earlier and the mysteriously open door linger in his mind. Under a heavy blanket, beside you, he seeks comfort. A slasher flick plays on the TV, the killer brandishing a split, bloody axe. Kokichi sneers at the absurdity. Suddenly, loud knocking reverberates through the walls. Kokichi freezes, spine straightening like an arrow, fingers curling into the fabric. Then, realization dawns: it’s just the movie. He exhales, shoulders deflating, hiding his fear behind a smirk.
