From a distance, Jona and the others were calling us. They seem to be able to hear Carah's screams. Jane continually scratches on Carah until she dies from losing so much blood.
While the others are getting near the area, Jane used the weapon to hurt herself. She made a scratch in the arms, at the cheeks, and the abdomen. Then wrapped the glove with her sweater and kept it in the bag. She cried for help while sitting beside the lifeless body of Carah. It was Jona who had first arrived at the scene. His eyes grew big as he saw Carah bleeding out on the ground. He bent and screamed, punched the ground, and cried. Then Jane told Jona that it was a mountain lion that attacked them. Shortly, Reina and Rosie had caught up as they slowly approach, tears immediately fell. They mourned while holding Carah's hands. Jane's presence vanished and I gained control again.
Jona: (sobbing)"Let's bring her out of here, that lion might come back."
Reina: "Did you just say lion!"
Elyn: (sobbing) "Yes, and that's the one that attacked us. That monstrous beast appeared moments when you guys went inside this cave. So we run, but it caught up to us. It immediately jumped towards Carah and strike her with its claws. I tried to fight back but it's useless. And all of a sudden it stopped attacking me and bailed."
Rosie: "Thank God you're fine, but Carah. She's dead!"
Jona: "Get a hold of yourselves okay, let's head back to the cabin and sort things out."
It was just supposed to be a happy adventure but now we are getting out of this dark place stained with our friend's blood. Jona carried Carah's body while Reina and Rosie kept on wailing. It was not that long until we reached the cabin. Jona laid Carah at the kitchen table and I grabbed some blanket to cover her. While at the couch, Reina was stuttering while asking Jona to go down the mountain to call for help. Jona just stared and nodded at her while attending to my wounds. After patching me up he asked me to go with him so that I could get real medical help. Rosie disagreed because it might be harmful to my state. But I agreed with Jona's idea. Rosie hugged me tightly and told me to be careful.
Jona and I packed up before descending the mountain. Reina and Rosie would be staying at the cabin to look over Carah. I told them that when the time we leave they should secure the whole cabin against any danger. And so, Jona brought his shotgun for we might encounter the mountain lion that attacked us. Reina bid farewell and asked us, Jona, to be careful. I endured my wounds that are aching while walking down the terrain. Jona was just ahead of me and in moments we saw a group of men that we encountered last time. They were trying to set some rabbit traps. As we get near them, they shockingly stared at my wounds.
Man 1: "What happened to you Ms?"
Elyn: "I was attacked by a mountain lion and one of my friends was killed by it."
Man 2: "What! A mountain lion! They should just be at the deeper part of the forest, how come they reached this part."
Man 3: "We will lend you guys a hand in swooping this place and to guarantee your safety."
Jona: "We would appreciate that, thanks, guys."
And so, the four of them accompanied us. One of them was occasionally chatting with me and asked stuff about me. He seems to be nice, but then Trish took over. She asked the group to go ahead because she feels like peeing. One of the men asked to accompany her to keep her safe. And so Trish went off the trail and down to a big tree while the other guys continue to walk down the path. While behind the tree pretending to pee, she called the guy for assistance. The man quickly attended her call but Trish stabbed his chest with a knife. Even though the man was already dead. She continuesly stab him while laughing.
