The sun was setting on the small, quiet town of Millfield as the residents settled into their homes for the night. The only sounds were crickets chirping and leaves rustling in the gentle breeze. But hidden deep within the forest outside of town, something else stirred. A group of teens had gathered around a campfire, swapping scary stories and daring each other to venture further into the woods.
The sun had just set, and the sky was painted in beautiful hues of orange and pink as Maria walked alone towards her home. She loved this time of day when the world seemed to slow down and everything appeared more peaceful. But tonight was different. Maria could feel it in her bones that something was about to change, something that would turn her life upside down. As she neared her house, she saw a strange car parked outside - one that she didn't recognize.
The storm raged outside, the wind howling and rain pelting against the roof. Inside, a group of strangers huddled together in a small room, seeking shelter from the tempest. They were all different ages, from different walks of life, with nothing but their fear and uncertainty in common. Little did they know that this unexpected meeting would change their lives forever.
