The next morning I wake up with light on my face and sweat running down my forehead. Wait what? Smoke?? Shit it's on fire!! I wake up Sila and the others. They are completely confused.
- Wait huh?? What happened?? Shiiit!!!!! It's burning, screams Sila and jumps out of bed.
Everyone else also jumps out of their beds. We run out the back door and when we get out we see the strange man standing with his back to us and he laughs loudly. All of us are probably thinking: "What kind of person is he who wants to kill us? What if we didn't wake up...We could have died! He is a murderer!".
- I know what we should do! Come on, I say.
- What can we do? Sila and Nirat say angrily.
- Well, we can take this person and drag him into the house, if he is allowed to live, he will be able to murder even more people, I note.
- Hmmm..., Carlos thinks. "You're right about being able to kill others, but how are we going to get him into the house? He is surely a fat dangerous type who will knock us down in seconds. Check out his muscles!"
We check for things on the ground that we might be able to hit the man on the head.
- Look over there! There's a big rock, we can hit his skull with it! Yzra shouts, picking up a large rock.
- Be quiet! I whisper.
But of course it's too late, slowly with a creepy grin the man turns around and slowly starts walking towards us.
- Shit, shit, shit, shiiiiit! whisper-shouts Yzra.
- Ehhh, maybe we should run, you know??! Nirat says.
- Hmm, how about into the house then? Carlos says angrily and sarcastically.
- Sila take the stone. Taaaake the stone! Yzra suddenly shouts.
Sila quickly takes the stone and starts running quickly towards the man. I don't even have time to blink before Sila has slammed the stone hard on the man's head. The man faints and falls straight to the ground face forward. We look at each other. Sila starts pulling the man in the direction of the burning house. We just stand there and watch.
- Hello! Can you help me? Sila shouts.
We all run up to him and help him pull the man towards the house. When we are a few centimeters from the house, we aim and throw the man into the house. We get together and walk slowly around the forest to find our camp. In half an hour we finally find our camp and we pack all our things. Then we go to the airport in Rio de Janeiro and take the first best flight back to Sweden. It has been a long journey full of adventures and difficulties that tested us on our qualities. But now it should be nice to have a well-deserved sleep.
