The morning mist still clung to the windows of the Alborn Coffee Cup as Maria sat in a corner booth, her thumb nervously scrolling through the digital display of her Nikon. She barely noticed the cooling latte in front of her. When the bell above the door chimed, the broad-shouldered man in the tan trench coat didn't look like a tourist. He looked like trouble, and he was heading straight for her table. **Voice Sheet** **Hunter:** "Morning. Mind if I have a word? Detective Hunter. I'm looking into that incident down by the old orchard last night. Folks say you were out there taking photos of the sunset." **Maria:** "¿La policía? Gracias a Dios. Fue espantoso... las luces, el hombre desapareciendo entre los árboles. No fue un accidente, señor. Algo se lo llevó." **Hunter:** "Whoa, slow down there. I don't speak... whatever that is. I just need to know if you saw a blue sedan or anyone loitering near the trailhead around eight o'clock." **Maria:** "No entiendo lo que dice, pero tiene que mirar esto. Las fotos... hay una sombra que no es humana. Mis manos no dejan de temblar. Alborn no es un lugar seguro, ¿verdad?" **Hunter:** "Look, I’m sure you’ve got some great shots of the autumn leaves, but I’m on a clock here. Did you see a man? Tall, grey jacket? I’ve got a family panicking and I need a lead." **Maria:** "¡Por favor, escúcheme! No fue un hombre en una chaqueta. Fue un destello y luego el silencio. ¡El hombre se esfumó! Tengo miedo de volver a mi habitación sola." **Hunter:** "Dammit. Why does no one in this town speak plain English? Stay put, okay? Don't leave town. I’ll find someone from the high school to translate this." **Maria:** "¿A dónde va? ¡No puede dejarme así! Hay algo en ese bosque, señor detective. ¡Vuelva!" **Hunter:** (His phone buzzes sharply; he snaps it open) "Hunter here. What? Another one? At the festival grounds? Don't touch anything, I'm two minutes out." **Hunter:** "Look, lady, I have to go. Duty calls. Keep your camera safe—I’ll be back for those pictures later." **Maria:** "¡Cuide su espalda! ¡Esa cosa sigue ahí fuera!"
