Avenge the Adventure

Chapter 2

After a storm hit their campsite, they've been stuck out in the forest with only a few things.  They've been walking for hours trying to find their way out of the forest.  Today is like any other day, they are all exhausted, but go on hoping they'll find a way out.  Food and water are going to run out soon, so they are all getting worried.  As they are walking, they come across a cabin in the forest.  It looks empty and abandoned.  The group goes in and relaxes on the couches.  Steve says, "We can rest here for a few days and maybe we can find a map to help us".  The group all agrees, and they start looking around the cabin.  It has four bedrooms, so they will have to share, but no one is complaining as they have been sleeping on the ground. They are all tired, so they crash early.  In the morning the first one to wake up is Steve.  He is sharing a room with Sam.  He steps outside only to be hit with a cool breeze.  Since it's still early, it's not humid yet, so Steve decides to go for a walk to clear his head.  As he's walking, he hears something.  He stops and looks around but there is nothing there.  As he keeps going, he notices something move in the trees.  He thinks maybe one of his friends is trying to scare him but is unsure.  He looks up and locks eyes with a pair of green, emerald ones.  The figure jumps down but he can't see much, only the frame of what looks to be a woman.  The fog makes it almost impossible to see, he calls out "Hello". He starts to walk toward her, but she darts toward the east. He runs after her but has trouble keeping up with her.  Steve runs as fast as he can to keep up with her and tries not to lose her.  As he's running, he comes to a halt.

In front of him is a ravine and the woman is on the other side.  She must have jumped to get across, wow.  She stands in the fog and looks back at him, then runs away.  The whole walk back to the cabin, Steve's mind is wondering about this mysterious woman.  When he gets back Tony is outside and he yells at him, "Where have you been, we thought you disappeared". Steve just walks past him and says, "went for a walk".  He goes inside and goes to the room he shares with Sam.  Sam is putting on a shirt and Steve sits on the bed thinking about the woman he saw in the forest.   Sam notices something is up and asks Steve, "you okay, man?"  Steve looks up, "Oh ya, I'm fine". Sam pushes knowing that Steve is lying. Steve has always been a terrible liar.  Sam sits beside him, "now tell me the truth".  Steve sighs, "I went for a walk and saw a woman, she disappeared before I could talk to her".  Sam looks at him, "I think the heat has messed with your mind, dude".  Steve looks up at him, "but I saw her". "Are you sure?"  Sam asks. He then gets up and pats his shoulder leaving the room.  Steve thinks, was it real?  Probably just a hallucination, he thought.  The whole day the group tries to get their energy back.  The cabin had food and water, so they just hung around together.  Once they are all feeling better, they'll try to find a way home.  Maybe this camping trip was a bad idea.
