Flight 113

A Haunting Tale of Survival and Malevolent Forces

By Judith AkabsPublished 2 years ago 3 min read



High above the dense forest, Flight 113 began its descent into the ominous night. The passengers were uneasy, a sense of foreboding lingering in the air. As the aircraft entered the thick mist, the engines sputtered, and panic spread through the cabin. Before anyone could react, the plane plummeted, crashing deep into the heart of the sinister forest.

Amidst the wreckage, a few survivors gathered their wits, their cries echoing through the desolate woods. Among them was Emma, a young woman with a mysterious past. Fear gripped her heart as she stumbled through the darkness, her only companions being the eerie whispers of the forest and the distant cries of her fellow passengers.

Unbeknownst to the survivors, they were not alone. Something malevolent lurked in the shadows, a malevolence that fed off the fear and despair that hung heavily in the air. As the survivors struggled to find a way out of the dense woods, they couldn't shake the feeling of being watched.

As night fell, the temperature dropped, and an eerie fog enveloped the crash site. Strange noises echoed through the trees, unsettling the already terrified group. Emma's heart raced, and she clutched her necklace tightly, a talisman she had always believed to bring her luck.

One by one, the survivors started to disappear, leaving only Emma and a few others. Each time someone vanished, their desperate cries echoed through the forest, fading into an eerie silence. Emma's fear grew, and she couldn't help but feel that something sinister was targeting them.

In their quest to escape, the remaining survivors stumbled upon a small, dilapidated cabin. Against their better judgment, they sought shelter inside, hoping to find safety from whatever lurked in the dark. But the cabin held its own dark secrets, and they soon realized it was no sanctuary.

Inside, the survivors found disturbing symbols and writings adorning the walls, hinting at occult practices that had once taken place there. The unsettling atmosphere intensified as they read the ominous messages, and they knew they had stepped into a place that they should never have entered.

As the night wore on, the group began to lose all sense of time and reality. The forest seemed to twist and shift around them, leading them in circles, further into the heart of darkness. Emma's instincts told her to escape, but the malevolent force seemed to keep them trapped, taunting and toying with their minds.

As they ventured deeper into the woods, Emma discovered an old journal hidden beneath a pile of leaves. It belonged to a man who had lived in the cabin decades ago, dabbling in dark magic and summoning sinister entities. The words told of the forest's curse, how it consumed the souls of those who dared to set foot in its realm.

Emma realized that the survivors were trapped in a nightmarish loop, and their only hope lay in breaking the curse. Armed with the knowledge from the journal, she led the remaining group to a long-forgotten altar deep in the forest. There, they found a ritual that could potentially dispel the malevolent force.

With trembling hands, Emma and the others performed the ritual, calling upon ancient powers to lift the curse and release the trapped souls. But the forest was not ready to let go of its prey so easily. As the ritual reached its climax, an otherworldly presence materialized, threatening to drag them all into the abyss.

Emma mustered all her courage and called upon her inner strength, clinging to the belief that her talisman would protect her. The talisman began to glow, and its light repelled the malevolent entity. Slowly, the force retreated, and the forest fell silent once more.

With the curse broken, the survivors found their way back to civilization. But the horrors they had witnessed would forever haunt their memories. As for Emma, she knew that she had faced a darkness beyond comprehension, and the forest would forever be etched in her nightmares.

Flight 113 and its passengers were lost to the forest, their souls forever intertwined with its malevolent force. And so, the legend of the cursed forest continued, a chilling reminder of the terrors that lurked in the shadows, waiting to claim those who dared to venture into its depths.
