James, Linus, and Melissa are three of a group of Boy Scouts camping in the desert during an annual Rocket Camp. As evening falls on the first evening, the older scouts take the younger scouts on a traditional snipe hunt. Unfortunately for this troop, there is something in the desert tonight...

A native evil has resurfaced in the night. Amongst the brush of the desert a creature, long dormant from the world, slithers on a hunt of it's own.

As the story unfolds from three perspectives, James, Linus, and Melissa are each shaken from their personal pursuits to face a monstrous enemy unlike any they've seen before. Will they find the strength to face this ancient evil, or is will this snipe hunt prove to be too much for this troop?
