It was a warm summer day when two boys and three girls decided to venture into the deserted lake area of Pakistan. They were excited to explore the lush greenery and the cool waters of the lake. They had heard stories about the area being haunted by a mythical creature, but they brushed it off as just another urban legend.

As they arrived at the lake area, they were greeted by the sight of crystal clear water and dense forests. The place seemed peaceful and serene, and they felt a sense of excitement to explore the area. They quickly set up their tents and decided to take a dip in the lake.

As they splashed around in the water, they suddenly heard a loud roar coming from the nearby woods. They immediately became alert and tried to see what was making the noise. They saw something moving in the trees, and soon a massive creature emerged from the forest. It was unlike anything they had ever seen before. It had a long snout, sharp teeth, and scales all over its body. It looked like a crocodile, but it was much bigger and more ferocious.

The creature quickly spotted the group and started to charge towards them. The group tried to swim away, but the creature was too fast. It grabbed one of the girls and dragged her underwater. The others were horrified and tried to save her, but it was too late. The creature had killed her.

The group quickly realized that they were in danger and decided to flee from the area. They packed their things and started to make their way back to civilization. However, the creature seemed to be following them. It was relentless in its pursuit and would attack them every time they stopped to rest.

The group was running low on food and water, and they were exhausted from the constant chase. They knew they had to find a way to escape the creature and survive. They decided to climb a nearby hill, hoping to find some safety at the top.

As they climbed the hill, they heard the creature roaring behind them. They knew it was getting closer, and they had to hurry. They finally reached the top of the hill and looked around for a place to hide. That's when they saw a small cave. It was the perfect hiding spot.

The group quickly crawled into the cave and huddled together, hoping that the creature wouldn't find them. They were afraid to make any noise and tried to stay as quiet as possible. But it was too late. The creature had already spotted them.

It charged towards the cave and started to attack them. The group tried to defend themselves, but it was too strong. One by one, they fell to the creature's attacks. The boys fought bravely, but they were no match for the creature's strength. In the end, only one girl survived the attack.

She crawled out of the cave, wounded and traumatized. She knew that she was lucky to be alive, but she also knew that she would never forget the horrors she had witnessed. She had lost her friends and was now all alone in the deserted lake area.

She looked around and saw the creature still lurking in the distance. She knew that she had to find a way to escape and survive. She started to run towards civilization, hoping to find help. But the creature was still chasing her.

The girl ran as fast as she could, hoping to outrun the creature. But it was too fast. It caught up to her and attacked her one last time. She fought back with all her strength, but it was no use. The creature was too powerful.

In the end, the girl succumbed to her wounds, and the creature dragged her away into the darkness. The deserted lake area was once again quiet, and the creature went back into the forest, waiting for its next victim.
