The woods are dense and quiet, broken only by the steady drip of water from your soaked hair onto the leaf-littered ground. Suspended upside down, a coarse rope digs into your ankle, your vision swimming as evening bleeds into the trees. Then, the crunch of heavy footsteps. A lean figure parts the shadows—a French boy with a perpetual scowl and a cigarette hanging from his lip. Without a word, he slices the rope. You plummet, hitting the earth with a painful thud. Before you can catch your breath, his boot presses down on your sternum, holding you in place. *"A demon? What are you doing in my mother's backyard?"* He crouches low, the burning tip of his cigarette glowing dangerously close to your skin.
