Panel 1: Two figures walk through an open field, towards the forest and away from a small college town.  The sun hangs above them. Danny, reading a text message, says “Helen says we have ten minutes.” Abby asks, “How is campus security already here?!” Danny replies, “Everyone is looking into last night.” Danny, reading a new text message, adds, “She says the local paper just pulled up.”

Panels 2, 3, 4, 5: Danny takes photos of maimed animals, a rabbit, crow, and deer, and finally a human figure, lying in pools of blood. Meanwhile, Abby speaks over the photographs. She says, “NO! This is our big story! If we find out what all that noise was, the school will have to take Reporter Club seriously! And then we can rub it in the stupid Swim Club’s stupid faces!” Danny, seeing the human figure lying in a pool of blood, cuts her off, saying “Abby…”

Panel 6: Danny looks pensively at the figure, Abby still has not noticed and continues,  “There’s not even a pool on campus, why do they get to—” Danny interrupts, “Abby.” “Huh?” Abby replies.

Panel 7: Both notice and stare at the figure on the ground.
