Sudden Rustling
Then, out of nowhere, a rustling sound erupted from the nearby bushes. Everyone’s heads whipped around like synchronized dancers, eyes darting to pinpoint the source.

“What was that?” someone hissed, panic threading his voice. The air felt thicker with tension, a suffocating blanket over the group.
Even Jake paused, glancing quickly toward the sound but somehow didn’t flinch. The rustle added an extra layer of fear, promising more surprises lurking just out of sight.
