Signs of Death

In a remote area three days prior, a group of five students were maneuvering way through a dense area of vegetation.

They have been inside the dense forest for days, nit seeing any signs of anyone other than them, making them feel agitated and anxious.

"I can't wait to be out of this forest!" A girl mumbled.

"Me too Lily. So let's keep going so we can get out of here faster."

They continued moving and eventually ventured upon a creek, where they settled for a little while.

"Let's walk beside this creek, I have a feeling we'll eventually find others around this path."

"Yeah okay Nigel. Let's do as you say."

They continued traversing the path for hours, while not letting the creek go out of their sight.

But after some time, the group suddenly felt something amiss with the area.

"Nigel, it stinks in here." Lily once again spoke, her hands on her mouth and nose, trying to cover them from the stench.
