Hunted

Secrets

The boys get back to camp just as Mike gets up and thanks Jasmine for her help. Jasmine looks and stares at them as if she's seen a ghost. "WHAT HAPPENED BACK THERE?!" "Well.... long story short, we found the creature and it attacked us." Jasmine, looking annoyed as hell, tells them sternly. "Listen jackass, I wanna know everything. Size. Species. Diets. I need to know everything you know about it." "Well..." Jay starts, "It's a Labyrinthont. Like a giant salamander. The one that attacked had to be at least 25 feet long because it was coiled around a very tall tree trunk with it's head resting on top." Tameron still shivers at the thought of what just happened. Jasmine looks at Tam. "What's wrong with you?" He looks up and replies "When it attacked, it had a look in it's eyes where it didn't care about me. All it wanted was Jay." Jay stops him and angrily says "THE FUCK YOU MEAN IT ONLY WANTED ME!?" Jasmine kicks his leg. "Calm down. Let Tam finish." Jay scolds at her and turns back to Tam as he continues explaining. " I had stood there in fear but Jay had run off in fear." Mike, having now come over to listen, looks around and see a bag in Jay's tent. Pulling away from the group, He walks to his tent, opens the bag and looks around in it. After looking in the bag for about a minute, he sees something that looks somewhat like an oval. As he pulls it out, he gasps but not loud enough for the other to hear. He takes the object, closes the bag and walks over to the group. Jasmine walks to her tent just as Mike walk to Jay and Tam.
"So what'd I miss?" Tam and Jay are irritated with him already. Tam walks away while Jay answers him. "Nothing you haven't already experienced." Jay walks away from him. Mike looks down in thought. As he walks to his own tent, his mind wanders. "What are these things and why is Jay hiding them? His thoughts run wild about everything that has happened in the last couple minutes.
