I might not have everyone in this AU so I'm sorry. And if you're not in it it's possible you may come later, or even very inactive members come up later. People in it from the beginning will be: Scruffy Mazz Bennie Liz Kitty Fry Foxx Dev Cas Splodey/Scarlett Zac Wolferay
I'm not going to say the plot yet, it'll all play out.
Each chapter will be focused around one person, but not from the point of view of them.

Chapter 1
Mazz tapped her fingers on the steering wheel as she drove. Her heart pulsed quickly in rhythm with the pop music on the radio, and with the excitement of the destination. The song faded out and Mazz's fingers ceased as she focused harder on the road, and the radio announcer's upbeat voice came on.
"Hey everyone, Ricky-rick here at QQRT, where all your favorite recent hits play. It's thursday, september 7th 2017 and the air is getting chillier. Bring out those jackets and enjoy the music. The voice said, and the next song came on. It was a song called Ragheart, which Mazz knew Scruffy and Bennie loved, but she did not care for herself. Tuning it out rather than turning the channel, she took a right turn.
For a few months the people of Cattails had been planning a real-life get-together, now that everyone was at least 18 and could go on a trip without their parent's permission. They'd be meeting at Liz's new house in Indiana. "I bet everyone's already there," said Mazz.
Mazz hit the brakes as hard as she could when two does ran across the road. They didn't spare a glance and sped into the tall grass. "Watch where you're going. God!" Mazz yelled out the window, as if they could understand her. She hit the gas again and sped off down the road.
Liz's house was only a few more miles, if Mazz had the address correct. The sky was darkening as the sun began to set. The 20-year-old girl turn her car lights on. The radio announcer came back on.
Did you hear about Denny's? Good resturant. Anyway, here's Dollar Mine by Synx! The song came on and Mazz hummed along. The song was new and had only been out for two weeks, although she didn't know who Synx was.
"There it is!" Mazz cried, as she saw the large country-side house on the left side of the road. She turned her shiny blue car onto the gravel road, and parked it near the fenced-in field. She took a moment to look at Liz's majestic appaloosa horse, named Percy, before exiting the car. She noticed that there were several other cars there. I'M FUCKING LATE. She thought, and sprinted up to Liz's door. She knocked twice, and the door opened.
"I'll get it!" Mazz heard from in the house. A familiar voice. Scarlett opened the door. "Mazz! Welcome to Liz's humble home!" She pulled Mazz into a hug and led her inside.

Not to mentions AU's where we all AREN't Socially stunted nerds who only know each other online, but instead live within driving distance of each other is always a wonderful thing!
I eagerly anticipate what lies ahead...this is potentially most fascinating and enigmatic...

Chapter 2
Scarlett led Mazz into Liz's house. She walked her into the living room. Scruffy was playing her GBA on Liz's couch while Kitty and Fry watched her, and Wolferay was sitting in an armchair playing his 3DS. Dev stood behind the armchair, holding a bottle of beer and occasionally taking a sip. Bennie and Cas were having a conversation in the hallway. Scarlett walked into the kitchen and left Mazz to her own devices.
Scarlett tripped on a broken floor tile on her way into the kitchen. Foxx, Liz, and Zac, who were sitting at the kitchen table, turned to look. Scarlett took a seat next to Foxx. "Mazz is here," she announced.
"Is she really?" Liz cried out.
"That's cool, I'll go say hi," said Foxx as he stood up from the table. Liz and Zac followed.
Scarlett went to the fridge to get some soda first. As she opened the fridge, she felt like the room was tilting. Black etched at the borders of her vision. She was afraid she was going to faint. It didn't feel like fainting though, just that the room had been turned on its side. It was gone in an instant. "That was really fucking weird," said Scar as she took a can of soda out of the fridge. She closed the door and walked back into the living room.
Mazz was talking to Dev and Zac. Dev was just nodding, taking a few drinks of the beer. Cas and Bennie were back in the room now, talking to Liz. Bennie laughed at something Liz said.
Scar went over to Foxx, who was talking to Fry about the show Wilfred. "It's very good, you should see it. It's got Elijah Wood in it, and Jason Gann, and the story plots are really entertaining."
Fry was listening entusiastically. "Sounds cool. I'll look for it on netflix when I get home."
"Oh, hey Scar!" Foxx said to Scarlett. "I was just talking about Wilfred."
"Yeah, I noticed. And hey Fry, I don't think I've talked to you yet." Scarlett extended her hand and shook it with Fry's, with a smile.
"Oh, hey. Nice to meet you! I like your hair."
Scarlett smiled self-consciously. "Mmm, thank you. Lots of people seem to like it. It's red, after all." Fry nodded in response. Scarlett sat down on the couch next to Scruffy and Kitty. She saw Scruffy save her Pokemon Emerald game, then flip the gameboy closed.
"What's up, Splodey? Having fun?" Scruffy asked.
"Totally!" She replied. "What about you guys?"
"It's nice," said Kitty. "It's great to finally see everyone in person. I'm afraid Dev's going to get drunk, though."
Scruffy laughed. Scarlett nodded and said, "Yeah, she probably will. I could go for a drink too, maybe."
"I'm 21 now, I wonder if Liz's got wine." Scruffy said with a smile.
"Probably," said Kitty. "I know she's got cake, but she says she's saving it for after we all eat dinner."
"Aw." Scruffy flipped her GBA open and closed several times.
"I want some cake," said Foxx.
"Too bad for you," Scruffy said.
Scar flicked some lint off the sofa. Liz called everyone together. "Hey guys, what should we have for supper?" Everyone began to talk at once, so Liz decided to take votes. She took a pencil and some paper and wrote down everyone's suggestions. "I don't have any corn left, so stop asking for that."
Liz tallied up the votes."Okay...Looks like we're going to-" Suddenly, it became pitch black in the room. Everyone started screaming. Liz dropped her pencil and paper and heard the clink and crash of Dev's beer bottle shattering on the floor. Panicked yells fogged the atmosphere, and then there was a sneeze from Mazz. Startled, Cas screamed and fell on top of Zac, who knocked over Wolferay and Bennie.
"What the fuck!" yelled Wolferay.
"Bless you," said Scarlett. Mazz murmured a thank you.
In a flash of bright light everyone felt like someone had punched them in the stomach. Anyone still standing was thrown to the floor, and everyone was knocked out.

Chapter 3
Bennie was the third to awaken, after Liz and Kitty. She sat up carefully and rubbed some dust out of her eyes. Her hair was ridden with dirt and her shirt was covered in leaves. Her phone was no longer in her pocket. She moaned and rose to her feet.
Liz was sitting on the ground, looking under piles of leaves for her phone. Kitty knocked on a tree trunk a few yards away. Bennie saw that they were clearly in a dim forest. The others awoke fairly quickly.
"Huh? Where's my 3DS? And my phone?" Wolferay cried.
"Where the hell is my gameboy?" Moaned Scruffy.
"Where...Where's my beer," said Dev.
Mazz sat straight up and took her phone from her pocket and texted Dev. "Dev, look at your phone. I sent you a text."
"I DON'T HAVE MY PHONE," Dev hissed.
"All of our electronics are gone...Except Mazz's...Where the fuck are we?" Scarlett said slowly. Bennie looked over Scar's shoulder and pointed at a decrepit sign. It said:
Welcome to Fear Forest! Enjoy your stay. Fear and do not prosper.
Bennie contemplated what that meant before Cas nudged her on the shoulder. "How do you think we got here?" They asked.
The 5'8" curly-haired girl shrugged.
"Let's focus on getting out," said Foxx. "The sooner we get out of here, the better."
"He's right. Come on bitches. Let's split up and look for exits." Zac said, while rolling his shoulder that he had slept on wrong. Everyone split up in groups of four. Bennie went with Cas, Dev, and Mazz. Another group was Scruffy, Foxx, Zac, and Liz. And the last group was Scarlett, Wolferay, Fry, and Kitty. They each took a path-or what was close enough to a path, just a walkable area in the woods- and moved out.
Bennie walked next to Cas behind Mazz and Dev as they trekked through a rough path full of bushes and weeds. Cas was talking about Wincest and WTNV and Bennie was listening, occasionally laughing or adding a side comment. Dev suddenly put her hand out in front of Mazz to stop her, the two in the back following suit.
"Look-look at that tree. Is that..."
"Marlinny!" Bennie yelled. "What is she doing here?"
"Haha, oh my god." Mazz squinted her eyes. Sure enough there was a girl, the spitting image of Marlinny, the girl who came to Cattails on rare occasions, usually disguised under a silly alias. But of course she always revealed herself. This time, Mar was leaning up against a tree, wearing a gray hoodie and dark blue jeans, arms crossed.
"Let's go, she probably needs help getting out of here too," said Cas. They all walked up to the tree together, stopping two yards from the girl.
"Marlinny! How've you been?" Dev said with a smile.
What happened next was disturbing to say the least. The girl smirked, and spoke in a wind-like, chilling voice, "Oh, I've been just fine, Devery." Her hoodie suddenly changed from gray to red to purple to blue to green and finally to black, and her face flashed with a bright light. Suddenly her face was just a skull. A dark laughter filled the air as a lightning bolt lit up the sky, and the girl was gone.
"I couldn't have been this drunk already." Said Dev.
"That..Wasn't Marlinny." Mazz whispered.
"This place is so fucked up," said Cas, leaning closer to their good friend Bennie.
Bennie stared straight ahead to where 'Marlinny' has been. They had to get out of here, and soon. This place was called Fear Forest for a reason.
