Darius pushed through some ferns as we trailed along behind him. I had notched an arrow into my bow, although I had it lowered.
Suddenly a snap and then Ben screaming could be heard. Everyone else screamed in response and I shot an arrow, barely missing Ben by a few inches. He looked pale from that.
"Sorry, I accidentally stepped on a twig." Ben explained.
I rolled my eyes, sighing as I went forward to retrieve the arrow.
"Come on man!" Yaz irritably glared.
"You done gave me a heart attack." Sammy sighed in relief.
"I should step on you." Kenji growled.
"It's all good, Ben. We're all on edge." Darius remorsed.
"And lost." I remarked as I walked back with the arrow in my hand, prodding at it ever so slightly.
"Yeah, we have been out here for a while now. Darius, are we sure that we're still headed the right way towards the park?" Sammy interjected.
"Well, we'd be sure if I still had my phone, because it has a GPS, a compass app, oh and guess what, is also a phone!" Brooklynn angrily retorted. Here we go again, great, more arguing.
"Sammy didn't steal your phone, Brooklynn! No one stole your phone, can we please stop talking about the phone?!" Yasmina scowled.
Ben tried to stop the fighting. "You guys! You guys, you guys, you guys! Could you all if necessary yell at each other a little quieter, please?" He begged.
"My fellow campers, chill!" Kenji's irritatingly attempt at a smooth voice rang out. "What we really need here is someone who can make the hard call on what we need to do next." Does he really think he's that kind of dude? "Since I'm obviously leadership material... I, will do this. And my first decree as the leader is- for everyone to just stop talking, and simply listen to Darius." What a douchebag.
Darius made a huh? sound. "Listen, dude, you got us out of Camp alive. Plus, I can always blame you if anybody gets eaten. Leadership." Kenji sugarcoated. "So, which way Darius?" Everyone looked at him, and I honestly pitied Darius at this point.
"Please, you're just trying to cover up the fact that you're lost, too, VIP." Brooklynn snipped.
"Exactly, also, if anyone gets eaten, that's the leaders fault." I added from where I stood.
"No it isn't! Clearly, you have no idea of how leadership works." Kenji waved his hand at me, and I narrowed my eyes.
"Well, none of us know where we are." Yasmina sighed.
"I know where we are!" Darius suddenly exclaimed. "We're by the Carnotaurus paddock! I thought this place seemed familiar."
"See, am I an excellent leader or what?" Kenji remarked, following after Darius. We all followed in suite not long after.
"I remember the fence!" Darius grinned as he pushed through some more wild growth, suddenly pausing. "The broken, ripped-apart fence."
