"Uhm, sorry but I am NOT teaming up with you"

Me and Valentina were sprinting away from the crowd of ectoplasms at full speed. We had got ourselves into this situation because I wanted to visit the nearest forever 21. What?? Can you blame a girl for wanting to look pretty?!
"Ugh, I can't stand your insufferable ass, y'know that, right? Because of YOU we got ourselves ambushed!" Valentina scolded. The reason she wasn't taking up on the ectoplasms was unknown and I decided not to question it because I could care less.
"Well, not my fault! And by the way, I can't stand you either" I said. Valentina rolled her eyes and gave up on arguing with me further. I felt smug about that
"Cat got your tongue? Or are you just missing your 10/10 boyfriend god knows how you bagged?" I commented
"Excuse me? Atleast I don't get used and thrown by every other man"
"How dare you, you bitch!!"
We continued bickering for a while until we figured that we should split up and meet here again because we weren't getting anywhere like this. There were two crossroads, and I ran into the right cuz I'm always right, teehee.
"God it would be better if I had a guy to carry me" I muttered to myself. I was having a hard time running because I had ate too much. Can you blame a girl for being hungry?
Anyways, I was running, and suddenly I had got cornered by a few ectoplasms in a near alleyway. Then I realized I had to fight
I charged to them, and they just disappeared after some time! There was also a really hot guy passing by. I wanted to approach him, until I heard a bloodcurdling scream from somewhere. I immediately rushed away from there to the crossroads, cuz obvi. Im not trying to be a hero of course
I waited for Valentina for some time, and then I realized SHE WAS MISSING. I ran back to the apartment

Ugh. Irene was literally asleep while we were doing all the work! Who does she even think she is???! I banged on the door a few times for her to open, but it was like the apartment was empty! I broke the door as I realized there were some.... what were they called??? Right! Ectoplasms, behind me. I shut it using a few of our bags which had rations. Thank god these guys weren't that powerful.

I then explained all this to Irene. She just looked at me, a bit mortified of how easily I lost Valentina. Ugh, they're both just so annoying!
"Well, what do we do now?" I asked sheepishly
She yelled at me. God this woman loved yelling at people
"Find her of course! Are you that dumb??"
We discussed for a bit on what to do. I suggested splitting up and she suggested staying together
"But it'll be easier I'd we split up! We'd bicker the whole way otherwise" I debated
Irene debated back "Well I don't trust you. You'd probably laze around"
"Hah, that's some nerve coming from you, the idiot who didn't come rationing with us!"
I felt a bit concerned with how Irene's hands started slightly trembling and how her pupils dilated. Irene had anger issues, but I don't think she was the type to get straight up adrenaline rush out of anger in such a small topic.
"HOW DARE YOU?! YOU WOULD'VE ALREADY KILLED YOURSELF IF YOU WERE IN MY SITUATION RIGHT NOW!"
I got angry too and yelled
"Oh yeah?! What are you going through so much that I can't handle, huh?! I'm the one who's stuck with people who hate me!"
Irene probably realized I had a point and she thought about something before taking a deep breath. She was looking like she was holding herself back
"Look, I mean no hate to you but PLEASE get some survival skills and be a bit less selfish."
I didn't say anything. I had no argument this time. We agreed and split up though I'd kick her ass if she yelled at me again. Hah, I'm so tough

Well, I had rationed some walkie-talkies cuz they looked cute and were PINK! turns out it came to use. Irene yelled a certain phrase at me through the walkie-talkie whenever I tried running from ectoplasms
"Hannah! Stop with the bullshit and fight!"
I walked around here and there trying to look for Valentina. There were no traces except a few blood stains on the ground... suspicious, but i could homestly care less. Valentina was a bitch anyways. Whew, I was so done. I had lost hope and decided to rest until I heard Irene through the walkie-talkie.
"I found Valentina!! But... she's acting kinda weird and-"
There was static and Irene was no longer heard in the walkie-talkie

End of chapter 8
(Author's remarks)
I'm sorry this chapter had to be kept a bit short :( I experienced writing burn out but I'm trying to come back to it slowly. Besides, doesn't a cliffhanger thrill you? :p
