Reliving Classic

Chapter 7: Truth

As time went forward, the three survivors just rested after such a disaster, taking in the fresh air and the sunlight as well.

"I noticed you did a bit of size shifting. Well done," Retail mentioned.

"Thank you," Hilda answered and then David managed to wake up in a panic. David yelled and panicked so much so the point where the only thing audible in this rocky area was David's screams. Hilda did get up right away and hugged David, stopping his frantic movements.

Eventually, the boy did manage to get in control of himself and began to have a series of panicked breaths before calming down and getting on his knees along with Hilda. The two continued to hug even after the panic calmed completely and soon after, the two went back to their spots of rest.

"I thought I was done for," said David.

"If you weren't panicking and climbed up Hilda's arm, we wouldn't be here..." Retail was interrupted by Hilda, telling her to hush to avoid more panic. Even if David did cause the three to go down, they were still alive, so it didn't matter.

"Hilda," David began and the two Hilda's immediately drew their attention to David at the same time. "Thank you," he finished.

Retail got up and decided the best option was to extend her arm all the way up to the top of the cliff while also offering a hand to either Hilda or David.

"Come on. We're rested and we'll need some help, so let's go."

In response, Hilda got up and extended her arm the same way Retail did along with offering a hand to David. Then David accepted both offers and everyone ascended, scaling the cliff walls to get to the top.

Eventually, everyone reached the top of the cliff. 40 feet above what was once a moving bus and the girls noticed that there tons of kids standing near the cliff waiting for an answer regarding the three survivors.

The girls used the arms that held David to lift him up so the kids could pull him up to the ground while the girls lifted themselves up to the ground when David was no longer in their hands. Everyone was on the ground, safe and sound.

Some of the kids yelled out the names of the survivors and hugged them while others stood at awe at the fact that there were two Hildas standing together. A few started to talk amongst themselves about why an older, more rugged, and slightly pink haired Hilda was there. Even the bus driver had no clue what to think. Since some of the kids lost one of their legs from "The Anomaly," they did have someone carry them with their arm around another kid's shoulder.

Everyone waited for what seemed to be an hour before what people saw to be Raven Leader running in their direction.

"What happened?! I heard some crashes from the distance, but...what....what happened?"

Almost every one of the kids and the driver ran up to Raven Leader to explain what happened to her, but everyone was inaudible to her due to everyone overlapping each other. Raven Leader then took notice of four people who were standing together: Hilda, Retail, David, and Frida.

Raven Leader didn't know what to think about two Hildas standing side by side, and she eventually told everyone to stay quiet, slowly walking up to the two blue haired saviors. "What happened?" she asked both Hilda and Retail.

"The dirt underneath near the cliff broke. The bus was going to fall off a cliff and kill everyone, so we stopped it," Retail explained. When Raven Leader asked how, the two showed her the abilities the two possessed by simply stretching their arms and moving them like the waves of the ocean and her mind was blown.

Raven Leader did notice Hilda's left hand being covered with splinters and her sweater having burn marks from how fast her arm dragged across the tree when returning, so she immediately grabbed it and looked at it for several moments.
