“I can't feel my legs Jungkook.” Taehyung whined while panting hard.

“Werent you the one who was asking for some adventure? This is what adventure is. How is it now?” Jungkook mocked his best friend but in reality. Each one of them were really tired to even move a muscle.  But they had to reach a destination before the sun sets. They must find a secure place to stay for the night.

“Doesn’t this forest have a f*cking cave Lord's? We haven't even found a space to sit till now.”  Jieun panted out while holding Hwasa for anchor. Hwasa was pretty fit than Jieun who was already losing her breath after an hour of walk.

“Atleast we are nearing another stream or else we wouldn't go a bit more without water in our system. The water we collected in Taehyun’s bottle is going to be over soon.”

The boy smiled proudly at his boss. Jungkook was the one who ridiculed him for bringing a big bag. But it contained many essential things, including tooth paste and lighters. They could use it for a while. If it wasn't for the heavy waves, he couldn't have been able to hold onto the big back bag.

“I am getting scared Mr. Jeon. What will we do if a wild animal comes?” Taehyun asked running his gaze over his entire surroundings holding a log of wood after sometimes.

“This boy never stops getting anxious. That is why we are holding these logs.”   

All five of them had a piece of wooden log in their hands for defense purpose. They have made a pact before taking their journey to the wilderness.

No matter what happens they stay together and fight. Two women in the front, men  in the back shielding them in case something happens.

They have been pretty much adhering to their plan so far.

The sky was getting a shade of orange as they walked and walked without any direction. Hearts hoping for something close to survival to show up in front of them. At least a safe tree they can take shelter from.

“I can hear the sound of water.”

suddenly Taehyun said getting a little bit excited at the thought of water. They have been exhausted and thirsty for a while now. They have covered a kilometer more and still haven't found a refugee.

“You told this last time too and I haven't seen a single drop of water but only dangerous insects and snakes kiddo.” Taehyung said.

“Stop calling me a kid. I am just 4 years younger than you.”

“ Still I have literally eaten 1461 bowls of more rice than you.”

“Did you start eating rice as soon as you popped out of your mother's belly then?” Taehyung glared at the smaller.

“Stop arguing both of you. I think he is right. I can hear water too.”  The friends walked ahead along with Taehyun who had a proud look on his face. It irked Taehyung because this time he was right about the water.

Hwasa ran towards the direction of the sound,  discerning tall bushes in front of her. She quickly moved them aside only to gasp at the sight in front of her.

“GUYS A HUT!!!!” She jumped with such delectation seeing something they have been hoping to see since their walk.

“Where?”

“WHERE?”

“HUT? WHERE?”

They bombarded her with questions but Hwasa had already moved forward towards the hut that stood over the massive trunk of a tree that stood in a clearing. The ground was not the one they encountered till now. It was less looking like a forest. Just like Taehyun said, a small stream with a small water fall was found near the tree house.
