Sarahs face fell. She went all that way, just to see that some of her closest friends had the wand. She sighed, knowing she would have to go all the way back home.

She decided she would spend the night there at the north pole before making a boat to get back. I mean, she now knows that Joe lied so she doesn't need to swim all the way back.

Sarah found a warm ish cave and sat down there, slowey passing out from exhaustion. She woke up in the morning feeling relaxed and rested, somehow. 

She got up and began collecting wood to make a makeshift raft and paddles. She evetually found enough to make one and started tying it together with leaves and vines she found lying around. 

She then put it in the water to make sure it would float. It did. She sat on top of it and began to paddle with her sticks.

*BACK TO WITH SARAHS MOTHER*

Sarahs mom was starting to give up hope. No one had seen her and she was presummed dead. Just that thought made her tear up. 

She waited by the phone all day everyday, hoping, praying that someone would call saying they found Sarah. She called all Sarahs friends, the ones she was going to go study with. She called the neighbours hoping they would ahve seen what happened. But no one knew anything about her whereabouts. 

*OOOOOOOOOOOOOOH SARAHS FRIENDS JORDYNS POV NOW*

Jordyn was sitting in her room. Sarah was one of her best friends and she was missing. She felt terrible. She couldn't play minecraft because she knew Sarah really liked it. She felt guilty when she played it now. 

She texted Sarah everyday, even though she knew she couldn't text back. She layed in bed at night, wondering where Sarah was. Was she dead? Was she kidnapped? Did she run away? So many questions Jordyn could never answer. 

*BACK TO SARAH WE GO* 
*ALSO TIME SKIP POG*

Sarah had been in the raft for days now. She was really hungry. Apparently only eating hunger is bad for you. 

She was bored out her mind, paddling through a seemingly endless abis of ocean would do that to you. 

Another thing that made her miserable was that she had one of her least favorite songs stuck in her head. Honey by Dervikat. But it kept her going. Her friend liked the song so it brought thoughts of life before all this.

She began singing it quietly under her breath. 

Lemon lime
Soda skies
Lucky like a four leaf clover

She smiled. The song brings back so many memories

Strawberry slice of life
Singing with a sip of nectar (Oh)

Standing outside, screaming the lyrics.

Sweet like honey on a summer day
I'll stick with you through the wind and the rain
Sweet like honey on a summer night
Like a busy bee taking flight (Three two one go!)

Saying that bees are lucky

Sweet like honey
Sweet like a summer day
Sweet like honey
Sweet like a summer day

Random snail facts.

Sweet like honey
Sweet like honey honey
Sweet like honey
Sweet like a summer day

Talking about nature,

Flying high
Take the dive
Blue waves across thе ocean (Ocean)
Honey straight (straight) from thе hive (hive)
Live it up and go with the motion (Oh)

She couldn't remeber the words after that point. She vowed to learn them when she got home. Even though she didn't want to. 

It took many more days but, she started to see the land she recognized. Home.
