•The Curse•

ch. 12

No ones POV

The day finally ended, and it was now nighttime. Craig and the others had been traveling all day, and nothing exciting had happened. Craig was looking outside of the carriage window, watching the scenery go by in the dark

He was yawning and rubbing his tired eyes. He was exhausted from the long day of travel, and he just wanted to go to bed and get some rest

Molly then stops the carriage, gets off of the horse, and takes the stuff off that was attached to the carriage to the horse.

Molly stopped the carriage and
unharnessed the horse.

Molly: "I'm going to take a walk with the horse for a while. You guys just stay there."

and she then gets on the horse and rides off, fading in the fog

He yawned again and leaned against the carriage, feeling sleepy. He looked over at Tweek, who was standing beside him and yawning as well

Craig looked around their surroundings and noticed that it was quite dark and foggy, and they were in the middle of nowhere. He hadn't noticed how isolated this place was when it was bright out, but now, in the darkness, it was hard to see beyond the fog

Craig: "Tweek."

Craig spoke in a soft voice, getting Tweek's attention. Tweek looked over at Craig with tired eyes

Tweek: "Hmm?"

Craig tilted his head slightly as he spoke

Craig: "Doesn't this place feel...isolated to you? Like, we're in the middle of nowhere, and we can't see a thing because of the fog"

Tweek: "Yeah, but like.. we're running away from town and we just have to go to places like this."

Craig nodded slowly in agreement, knowing that Tweek was right. They were on the run, so they had to travel to isolated areas to avoid being caught. That didn't mean it was any less creepy, though

He continued to look around their surroundings, feeling a bit anxious. The dark and foggy area was making him uneasy, like something was watching them from the shadows

Tweek: "I've heard coyotes live here to catch their food as they hide in the fog."

Craig's eyes widened slightly as Tweek mentioned coyotes. He hadn't thought of that before, but now that Tweek mentioned it, he couldn't ignore the fact that they could be in danger of being attacked by one

Craig: "Ugh, I hope we don't run into any coyotes. I do not want to be attacked by some wild animals in the middle of the night in the middle of nowhere."

Tweek: "..I have a question."

Craig looked over at Tweek curiously, wondering what the question was

Craig: "What is it?"

Tweek: "Where do you want to live once we finally escape from the run?"

Craig paused for a moment as he thought about Tweek's question. He hadn't really given much thought to where he wanted to live once they escaped, but now that Tweek asked the question, he started to think about it

He furrowed his eyebrows as he spoke

Craig: "I'm not sure. I guess somewhere far away from here, where we can be anonymous. Somewhere with a bunch of people, so we don't stick out too much."

He paused for another moment before adding on

Craig: "And somewhere with a lot to do. I'm sick of being bored all the time."
