Prompt response:
Dante, having already been somewhat awake when the noise began to occur, instantly leaped out of the two-bed bunk. Landing on the floor with a soft thud, some of the other campers in the room were aroused from their sleep. They too questioned what the noise was, and naturally being a leader, Dante convinced the braver ones to follow him outside to investigate.
Armed with a flashlight and a sharpened stick, Dante and the few other kampers headed towards the direction the strange sound seemed to be coming from. It was otherwise quiet, save for the occasional sound of crickets chirping or an owl somewhere in the distance. The sound grew stronger with every footstep deeper into the woods they journeyed, a low guttural rumbling becoming audible to them. Dante motioned for the group to stop behind him with a raise of his hand, breaths beginning to draw short and anticipation rising in the chilling air. Even in the cool-headed Dante the situation began to provoke a sense of unease within him. Though he didn't let it show; he knew something was seriously off here, the sound began to emanate not from just one direction, but many? And whatever it was, it seemed to be rather close to them. With the flashlights now off, Dante picked up a small stone from the ground and tossed it in the opposite direction of the kampers. Almost instantly something ruffled through the bushes and trees in the same direction, allowing some of the now frightened kampers run away.
Dante however, remained, now more curious than perturbed. What exactly was going on?
