The Forgotton Stars

Chapter 11

Cloey woke up and Nicole was still asleep. She looked up into the sky and the stars still shown. It must be still around midnight. She looked around for Scar, but he wasn't there. Where could he be?
She decided she would go look for him. She didn't think about the dangers in the woods around this time off night. The coyotes, wolves, bears, and many others.
She got up and went to Nicole to say her name to make sure she wasn't awake. Her sister didn't respond. She got up and went into the trees were scar went last time. She kept on walking and calling scar's name but there was no answer.
She found herself walking through a bunch of ferns and only a couple of trees. She yelled his name and there was still nothing. Until she heard something running towards her. She looked next to her and a wolf was about to jump on her.
She screamed in horror. She was waiting for her fate and closed her eyes. But when she opened them again, she noticed scar wrestling with the animal. Cloey felt so much anxiety rush through her. She couldn't look. What if scar was killed? It would be all her fault.
To her relief she herd scars voice, but her relief turned to guilt as scar yelled at her. "what were you thinking?" he yelled furiously. "going off on your own like that?!"
"I'm sorry scar...I'm really sorry..." she noticed scars leg had a deep bite. She felt her eyes go damp. "I'm sorry..." she cried.
Scar only sighed. "you should be more careful." His voice was calm, but she could still sense his tension. "just...in the future don't go off on your own like that."
"I won't..." cloey promised.
"good." Scar said. "let's go back to your sister."
Cloey felt so much guilt. She put scar in danger. Why wasn't she thinking?
