"Charlie do you see anything" Calan asks over the phone call

I was ahead of Calan's Mazda RX9 on my ZX-25R.

"Not yet but I'm not done on the neighbourhood yet" I reply "I'll check up with Jake, Daniel and Josh"

Jake, Daniel and Josh were in Jake's massive 4x4 F-150 scanning the forest.

"Jake what's happening" I asks

"We haven't found anything suspicious yet but we'll keep looking" Jake says

"Ok I'll check up with the girls now" I say over the call

"Hey Charlie what's up" Kate asks

"Have you guys found anything" I ask back

"Yeah we did" Izzy says

"Really what" I ask sitting in the middle of the road on my bike

"A Starbucks" Izzy replies

"Have you guys started on the look out yet" I say

"Yes..." Abbey says super unconvincingly

"Just hurry up and get out there" I say before hanging up

"Fucking Retards" I say to myself

I start riding towards the beach when I see some sort of black fog coming towards land.

"Jake get to high ground" I say after calling Jake

"Why, is Anakin Skywalker here" Jake jokes

"No there is some kind of black fog coming towards me" I reply angrily

"Oh... uh... okay" Jake says hanging up

I think to myself that Izzy's Audi S3 Convertible and Isabel's Toyota FR-5 won't be able to make it to higher ground in time.

"Where are you guys" I ask calling Kate again

"We're going to the lookout don't worry" Kate replies

"No, don't" I say "There is some kind of fog coming towards me. Try to get to higher ground"

"Ok" Kate says

I hang up then start up my bike again. I turn away from the fog and start riding towards the forest.

"Where are they" Jake asks pacing back and forth

"They'll be here" Josh replies

"Yeah just calm down" Daniel adds

Jake, Josh and Daniel were already near higher ground when I called so they got there pretty quick. Ten minutes ago Calan caught up with them.

"Jake they'll be fine" Calan says while sitting on a rock

"Charlie maybe" Jake says "But the girls"

"Isabel's might make it" Josh says

"Yeah might" Jake replies still pacing "But Izzy's"

"They could all get in one car" Daniel says

"They'll be okay Jake" calan says "Just believe"

"Ok your right" Jake says "They'll be fine"

"Oh god where are they" Josh says pacing

"I don't know" Jake says also pacing

"Can you guys calm the fuck down" Calan asks

"It's been over an hour since Charlie called" Josh says "They should be here"

"You know what I'm gonna start pacing as well" Daniel says standing up

"I swear to god" Calan says putting his head in his hands

"Ok I'm standing up now" Calan says starting to freak out

"They could be dead" Josh says

"Or being tortured" Daniel says

"Or eaten" Jake adds

"What was the fog Charlie was talking about" Calan says then stops pacing

"I don't know" Jake says while also stopping

"We can't even see it past all these trees" Daniel says

Eventually they all stopped pacing and were thinking of a plan to save me and the girls.

"We can't" Calan says "What if the fog is poisonous"

"Your right" Jake says "We have to wait"

"Fine" Josh says "Let's stay"

"Is that just your catchphrase or something" Daniel asks sitting down again
