The Story Of My Life // OC story // DISCONTINUED

Chapter 10

Nuget's POV

I followed the blood trail from out of the town, feeling worse every time I realized how much further it went on. They must've been seriously injured... what if they didn't survive? I shuddered at my own thoughts, let's just hope that's not the case... eventually, the trail led into a forest but then suddenly stopped at some trees that were much further away from the road. At first, it looked like nothing had been left but the area around two of the trees told a different story. The ground was slightly flatter around them, Spazz and Cobra must've rested here. There was no more blood or any sign of a fight so I had to assume they were still alive somewhere. But which direction did they go? Just then something brushed my nose. Pinching the object and staring at it, it looked like cat hair. Squinting my eyes I realized it was practically making its own trial.

"Luckily they have a cat that sheds a lot..." I chuckled lightly before continuing down the trail of cat hair, which then led me to a dirt path. I guess they weren't as badly injured as I thought... Too hyper to continue walking I raced down the rest of the path and soon it led to an open area. It was a highway but I recognized it. Me and Fallen walked down this same highway after we ran from Delaware. Suddenly it clicked in my head. Spazz and Cobra are going back to Delaware! Probably to Spazz's house... but they could be going to Cobra's house too... I don't know, I'll check Spazz's house first and see what happens from there. After I had the plan set in my head I settled down beside the highway, it was getting dark anyway.

FoolishCobra's POV

We got up early in the morning to head to Spooz's house. Even though I was exhausted I knew that we had to get as far away from Maryland as possible, even though we were already pretty far but we weren't sure if we were being followed or not. We arrived at Spooz's neighborhood just before noon and I immediately ran to the stream behind his house and sipped from it, Munchkin also drank from the clean water... It had been so long since I've had fresh water to drink.

"You're drinking like you're parched." Spooz chuckled, leaning against a nearby tree.

"We ran out of water yesterday and you wouldn't let us stop to go get some from a store so what do you expect?" I snarled, wiping lingering water on my chin. Looking down the stream, it led to a large forest that could contain anything, to be honest. "Hey, let's go try to find some berries in there!" I suggested, scoping up Munchkin and dashing into the forest.

"Wait." Spooz grabbed the back of my shirt and I looked at him annoyed. "Before I ran away there were a lot of creepers in this forest, that's how one of my neighbors died."

"We'll be careful. Besides, you said creepers were rare to come across."

"They may be rare but they still exist, and with all the greenery they'll be able to blend in perfectly with it and by the time we see them it'll be too late," Spooz explained. I thought for a moment before agreeing, berries aren't worth our lives after getting this far. Together we entered the house, hopefully able to relax for a while.
