Water Bottle. || Chapter 9

"that was close, wasn't it?"
Michael.
Calum stays in front of me.
"Jen! I'm so glad I found you!"
Michaels acting funny.
He's never this happy.
Nor this colorful.
I tap Calum's shoulder.
"Cal, you can move."
He steps to the side.
"How'd you get out here Mikey?"
He looks blank for a moment.
"Oh, uh um, there's an easier way to get out of here. C'mon follow me."
He starts to turn around, and I begin to follow.
Calum grabs my arm.
"Jen, there's no other way out of here. I've checked before."
I furrow my eyebrows.
"B-but Mikey said-"
"Jen, don't you think it's a little strange, that Michael brought a gun with him, AND he somehow got in here unharmed?"
I look from Michael to Calum.
"Y-yeah. But he wouldn't lie, Cal cmon, we need to get out of here."
He sighs.
"Alright."
We start to walk with Michael until we reach a certain tree.
I lean against as Cal looks ahead.
| Calum's pov|
As I look ahead, I notice Michael with something unusual.
A water bottle.
No way did he 'bring that here'.
I walk over to him, making sure jen stays next to the tree.
I grab his shoulder.
"Hey Mike where'd you get-"
When he turns around, his eyes are a black color.
I step away.
He looks at me for a moment, then they turn back to normal color.
"What's wrong Calum?"
Jen's right behind me.
"Nothing. Cmon, let's continue walking."
| several hours later|
We all sit down and start to rest.
Michael has drunken out of that water bottle every hour.
It's empty.
Jen's asleep, and she's resting on me.
"Hey Calum, is there some water around here?"
I shake my head.
"No. There's none around here."
He begins to shake.
He turns to look up at the trees, and I grab the bottle.
He lunges at me.
I move away.
"What's in this that's so special huh?"
I walk towards the cliff, we jumped off earlier, and hang the bottle over the edge.
"Are you going to tell me what's going on?"
He shook his head.
I drop the bottle.
He starts to shake.
"You shouldn't have done that."
"Which one of them sent you out here?"
His eyes start to get darker.
"They both did, they want her."
He points at Jen.
"What are they going to do with her?"
He shakes his head.
"You'll see."
He walks closer and closer to the edge of the cliff, body shaking.
He's almost there.
"Michael stop!"
I reach out to grab him.
