There was a group of five friends, namely: Alice, Bryan, Nina, Luke, and Sam, who were headed to an island (by sailboat) for their summer vacation together. The island had the name "Carmesí" which means crimson in Spanish. The island looked isolated since it was covered with trees and didn't have any people to be seen.

**group arrives by sailboat**
[BRYAN]
We're here!
[ALICE]
Wow, this place looks nothing like the one in the brochure... Are you guys sure we're at the right island?
[NINA]
Let me check... It's quarter to 9... Gosh, there isn't even any around signal here.
[SAM]
Ugh, you're right.
[LUKE]
Guys, let's just look for a place to stay. I'm still beat from the trip going here.
[BRYAN]
Let's follow this path.. maybe it'll lead to an Inn or something.
**follows path**
[LUKE]
Look! Maybe we could stay in that cabin over there up the hill.
[NINA]
This island is already giving me the chills. Let's hurry up. These bags aren't gonna carry themselves you know.
**goes to the cabin**
**goes inside the cabin**
**Luke turns on the light**
[LUKE]
Geez...
[NINA]
OMG, this cabin looks abandoned. We are totally at the wrong island, aren't we?
[SAM]
Nina chill. Let's just get settled down.. My feet hurt from all that walking.
[ALICE]
Sam's right. Let's unpack first then explore this island. After all it's still 9:00 A.M...
[BRYAN]
Don't forget to eat breakfast.
[ALICE]
Oh, you're right.. Did anyone bring anything to eat? I brought some snacks, but those
won't be enough for breakfast.
[LUKE]
I brought some.
[SAM]
Cool. Let's eat before we leave. Good thing the kitchen's alright...
**finishes unpacking then eats breakfast**
**starts exploring**
[LUKE]
So... did anyone google this place before?
[SAM]
Hmm, weird... This island wasn't even on google when I searched it. The results were just a bunch of wack.
[ALICE]
Nothing? Not even a single site?
[SAM]
Well, there was one.. It said about 'ghosts wandering around the island'? I don't know.. It said: 'Before, the island was a place for sacrificing people' blah blah blah... Must've been where they got the name "Carmesí" from...
[ALICE]
Wait, what?
[NINA]
WTH Sam?! You better not be scaring us.. We literally just got here an hour ago and you're just telling this now?
[SAM]
Not everything you see in the internet is real.. might be just some made up bologna.
[BRYAN]
Well... If you guys wanna go see if the stories are real then I'm down.
[NINA]
I'm not.
[ALICE]
I don't know... It might be dangerous.
[LUKE]
I'm with Alice.
[SAM]
Meh.
[BRYAN]
Come on guys, we're just gonna see if it's real or not. And besides, what could possibly go wrong?
[NINA]
Um, Everything?!
[BRYAN]
Come on, let's go this way.
[NINA]
**Sighs** **rolls eyes**
**everyone continues to explore**
[LUKE]
Uh guys, look.. **picks up paper** .. It looks like a journal page.
[ALICE]
Let me see that...
"June 01, 2006.... It really is the luckiest day of my life! My boss gave me a break from work and I even won a free six-days vacation trip to an island! Oh, if only my friends could see this... they'd be so jealous of me right now. I'm gonna pack my things now because I can't wait to leave and relax... -Jeremy Winston.
[SAM]
Hmm, weird. Let's go look for more..
[LUKE]
There's another one over there!
------
"June 02, 2006... I just arrived at the so called "Carmesí" Island and so far, I am loving it. The service here is great, lots of other people to talk to, and get this, the people who work here wear some kind of weird costume.. looks like they're from a tribe or something.."
[BRYAN]
Over here!
------
"June 03, 2006... Is it just me or something doesn't feel right.. The meal they served tasted weird..and there was even hair on the meat. I really didn't feel good after eating that..."
[ALICE]
Looks like the trail of pages are leading us somewhere, let's keep searching for more...
------------
[LUKE]
Any sign of pages?
[SAM]
I see one over there...
--------
"June 04, 2006.... I just noticed some of the people here are missing or have left each day.. That's weird.. I don't remember any boat to pick them up when they were leaving. Also, when I was walking around the island..I found some kind of strange artifact or idol. I don't know what it is and what it's for but I'm keeping it for now... must be worth something."
[NINA]
There's something nailed to that tree over there.. I wonder what it is.. Guys, go check it out.
[LUKE]
Alright, maam.
[BRYAN]
Looks like some voodoo tish. **grabs strange idol**
[ALICE]
Be careful, it looks cursed or something.
[BRYAN]
I need to snap this real quick.. **takes a selfie**
[NINA]
Seriously?!?
[SAM]
Looks like there's another page over there.
---------
"June 05, 2006.... They are not what they seem! The people who work here are not what they seem! I have to escape before they catch me... I don't know why I'm still writing in this book, but I hope someone would read this. The strange idol is called something like "Mekahri". The idol is used to summon the spirits and witches of this island... I shouldn't have come here, nobody should have..."
[BRYAN]
It's getting dark already....
[LUKE]
And there's a page right there...
---------
"June 06, 2006.... œöæģqəķű jýűpłøž včńwß §ýhģfū.... They're here... The witches are here! Everything... everything is burning.. right before my very eyes... öùþďfğwhķ...This is the end... we're all doomed... The idol must be destroyed... the idol... đfý§œığłj.. go....hňbčmæ...lake..."
**everyone looks at each other in fear**
[NINA]
This is creepy AF and I hate it. I'm going back to the cabin.
[ALICE]
Nina, wait!
[SAM]
Uh guys, where is Bryan?
**complete silence fills up the atmosphere**
[LUKE]
He might be in danger! Let's find him quick!
**everyone searches for Bryan**
[LUKE]
Any sign of Bryan?
[SAM]
None.
[NINA]
The lake... the journal said go to the lake.. What are we waiting for?! Let's go!!
**arrives at lake**
[ALICE]
That's Bryan's phone over there! **grabs and turns on phone**
[NINA]
It's his selfie from before... and I think there's something behind him..
[ALICE]
Oh no...
[SAM]
What is it?
[ALICE]
Bryan... he's gone...they took him...
[LUKE]
What? Who took hi-
**suddenly, a large blaze of fire appeared in front of them. Burning the trees around the lake**
** whispers... then screams of souls in pain fill their ears**
**it became pitch black...**
Since then, they were nowhere to be found...
