Caitlin wandered through the forst in an attempt to find the cabin she had passed. After walking for what seemed like forever, Caitlin finally found the clearing. A thin line of smoke was comeing fromt the cabin's chimney, and there was a recently killed deer awaiting gutting. Caitlin, too tired to run, quietly walked up to the cabin's lone window. She peered inside and saw a single sofa, an old-fashioned oven, a cabinet, and a closet. There was door that lead to another room on the opposite side of the window. As Caitlin backed up to go to the front door, a twig snapped under her feet, and the door to the cabin's bedroom slammed open to show a young man. He quickly searched for the source of the noise, and spotted Caitlin as she drew away from the window and ran into the forest. She ran and ran and ran, until her body gave up and her knees collapsed. There she sat, panting, exhausted, in the middle of an unfamiliar forest.
