The Hitchhiker

You're woken up in the dead of night by your phone's insistent ring. It's your uncle, calling from his isolated cabin deep in the woods. "I left something important at your place earlier today," he says. "Bring it to me now, I need those things." Uneasy, you grab the forgotten bag, climb into your truck, and hit the road under a canopy of looming trees. The fog rolls in thick, your headlights cutting through the darkness... but something feels off. Why the rush at this hour? And who's that figure emerging from the shadows ahead?
