The next day, Michael and Eddie were following the map. Michael ask

Michael - Eddie are we going on the right direction

Eddie - I hope so (cluelessly)

Michael - Hope so? (shocked 😲) Are you coming to say we are lost in this forest?

Eddie - Just follow me quietly and quickly

Michael - No! (shakes his head) First you show me the map (firmly)

Edward shows the map and Michael gets shocked 😲 to see that Eddie was holding the map upside down this whole time and he tries to find out where exactly they were with the help of the compass but no use. Michael shout

Michael - Are you happy? (seeing Eddie) We are fucking lost because of your stubbornness and stupidity. How are we going to find our way out of here? (angrily 😡)

Edward - Michael calm down

Michael - Calm down my foot brainless person (angrily 😡)

Eddie got a bit scared because he had never seen this side of Michael.... Angry Michael! Michael walks here and there not caring about his injured leg. Michael say

Michael - I should have stayed in my house and be preparing for the exams and help my other friends to prepare for their exams but here I am stuck with a total fool like you who got us lost in this deep forest. My father kept telling me to stay away from you, not to roam with you and mainly not to be your friend but I did not listen to him and now I regret it fully. (angrily 😡)

Eddie - Michael we will find our way back to the camping site

Michael - Do you exactly know where the hell we are in this freaking woods? (seeing Eddie angrily 😡)

Eddie - No, (shakes his head) but I am sure we will surely find our way out of here

Michael sits on a tree log and breaths few times and tries to calm himself and say

Michael - I am sorry Edward (seeing Eddie calmly)

Michael drinks some water and Eddie say

Eddie - When you are ready let us go

Michael - Where exactly?

Eddie - We will go where we came from

Michael - Eddie.... Look around you, everything looks the same in here. I have been having a feeling we are roaming in the same place again and again for past an hour

Suddenly they hear the thunder and Eddie say

Eddie - We have to find a save place to stay from this rain

Michael see the map and the compass and say

Michael - This map is hopeless for now until we find a known place. Let us do as you say

They kept walking to find a proper place to stay. They kept hearing the thunder every now and then. Michael ask

Michael - Edward do you have any plans how we are going to find our way out?

Eddie - No but I am sure we will find some way out

They kept walking for a while and suddenly Eddie hear Michael scream in pain and he say

Eddie - Mike now is not the time to play your silly games

Michael - Eddie help me

Eddie see that Michael's leg was trapped in a bear trap. Edward say

Eddie - No way, I am helping you and get myself hurt too

Michael - Edward please (pleading tone)

Eddie thought of something and say

Eddie - Say that you will leave Prince and will do whatever I say and do, then I will think about helping you out from that nasty bear trap

Michael - Are you for real right now? No, (shakes his head) I'm not saying such things (firmly)

Eddie - Fine suffer here alone

Eddie starts to walk away. Michael shouts

Michael - Edward Murphy what will you tell my family when they ask you about me

Eddie see him and say

Eddie - That Michael Jackson died after falling from a mountain by Prince pushing him out of revenge of losing a fun game of tag and we could not find his body even after searching for it for a week

Eddie turns arounds and kept walking until he hear Michael ask

Michael - Ed.... Eddy.... Eddie.... Eddie Murphy.... Edward.... Edward Murphy.... Edward Regan Murphy do you really believe that my family will buy that lie that easily?

Eddie see Michael, Michael was sitting on his knee and was trying to open the trap. Michael see Edward and ask

Michael - Did you forget the time you lied about me getting hurt and bleeding to death on April fools day when we were young?

Eddie remembered the day he got hitting from Michael's brothers for playing a prank like that. Even his parents punished him for months and Joseph make sure Michael stayed away from him after school. Michael ask

Michael - Do you really think my dad will let you go that easily this time? (teasingly seeing Edward)

Eddie took a stick and tries to open the bear trap out of fear of Joseph anger and Michael's brother's hitting. Few minutes later, Michael was holding his wounded right leg. He see blood was coming out of the wound and he ties a cloth tightly. Michael got up and say

Michael - Thank you very much for helping me out

Eddie - I did not do it for free

Michael - What do you want in return? (🤨)

Eddie - I will tell you when the right time comes (smirking 😏)

Michael did not like that smirk on his face because he knew something nasty was running in Eddie's mind but he nodes his head. They walk for a while and suddenly the rain started. Few moments later, they find a huge tree and Eddie say

Eddie - Your jobs starts from here

Michael got to his work of building the tent. Edward say

Eddie - Do it faster, I am getting cold here

Michael - More than whining and complaining here, go and get some dry sticks.

Eddie - It is your job to build a tent, collect the sticks and start a fire and prepare food

Michael breath heavily knowing it is waste of time and energy talking to Eddie. He did everything without saying anything. While Eddie was having his dinner, Michael was first aiding his wounded leg. Eddie shout

Eddie - Don't do that while I'm eating (disgusted tone)

Michael - I am done and why do you see here while eating? (irritated and annoyed tone)

Eddie - Get out of the tent and sleep there. I don't want to sleep with blood smell and I don't want blood on my clothes (angrily 😡)

Michael - Edward its pouring out there and I am cold too

Eddie - I do not care about it and do as I say or else you know me very well

Michael did as Eddie said. He sits under a tree and sleeps 😴 there.

X-X-X-X

Will Eddie and Micheal will find their way out of the forest? What Eddie is going to ask Michael to do is for helping Michael?
