Yn's heart sank as news of Kate's disappearance spread throughout their college campus. The worry and fear consumed y/n, who knew deep down that something was terribly wrong. Despite the doubts and dismissals from others, y/n refused to believe that Kate had simply run away or fallen into the wrong crowd.
Determined to find their dear friend, y/n began an exhaustive search, starting with the last place Kate was seen - the haunting woods on the outskirts of town. Rumors had circulated about a tall man with no face lurking in those woods, but most dismissed it as mere urban legend.
As y/n ventured into the dark and eerie forest, each step filled with trepidation, they couldn't shake off a sense of being watched. The trees whispered secrets, casting eerie shadows that danced menacingly. Every rustle of leaves sent shivers down y/n's spine. Days turned into weeks as y/n tirelessly combed through every inch of those woods, leaving no stone unturned. They interviewed locals, searched abandoned buildings, and even enlisted the help of a private investigator. But all leads seemed to lead to dead ends.

Its pages were filled with cryptic symbols and drawings depicting a tall figure with no face. It seemed like Kate had been onto something after all. As y/n delved deeper into the journal's contents, they discovered references to an ancient folklore surrounding a faceless entity said to decay those who dared to venture into its territory. The more they read, the more convinced they became that Kate had encountered this malevolent being. but that lead to being haunted by vivid nightmares and paranoia, Night after night, y/n would be plagued by nightmares of a tall faceless man lurking in the shadows. Paranoia consumed them, causing them to constantly feel watched and on edge. The stress began to manifest physically, with bouts of sickness leaving y/n weak and drained, y/n pressed on despite their own fears.
Determined to find answers, y/n embarked on yet another search in the dense forest where Kate was last seen. As they ventured deeper into the woods, an eerie silence surrounded them. Suddenly, out of the corner of their eye, y/n caught a glimpse of a white blur darting between the trees accompanied by a low growl.Y/n's heart pounded in their chest, Fear gripped y/n as they cautiously approached the source of the sound. Their heart raced as they prepared themselves for what might lie ahead. Just as they were about to turn back, a figure wearing a white hooded mask emerged from the shadows and tackled y/n to the ground Panic surged through y/n's veins as they rolled down the damp ground of a hill covered in dried leafs from the dead trees, grunts off struggle were heard as y/n tried to fight off the masked individual, her first instinct to yank the mask off and use it as a man made weapon but a gasp left both individuals.
Time seemed to slow down as y/n hugged the female in front of her in tears not being able to comprehend that the months of search where worth it. The shock washed over them as they realized that beneath the disguise was their long-lost friend, Kate. But instead of a joyful reunion, y/n found themselves facing an ominous threat. Kate warned them with chilling words, promising dire consequences if they ever dared to reveal her existence or the existence of the journal she possessed.
