He Wanted a Recording
As Julian stood there, staring at the strange plant that Spike had been investigating, he took out his phone and started recording. He knew that no one would believe his story without some kind of proof, and he wanted to be able to show people what he had encountered in the forest. The plant looked like something out of a movie, and Julian couldn’t believe that he was seeing it in real life.
However, as he looked at his phone, he noticed that the screen had turned black. That was strange, he thought. He had charged his phone yesterday and hadn’t used it since, so it shouldn’t have run out of power. An uneasy feeling ran through Julian’s body as he realized that something was off about this place. He knew that he needed to get out of the forest as soon as possible, and he hoped that Spike would be able to lead him back to safety.
