Euan M's POV
I don't think we'll last long with that girl, that's obvio--
'That's why we need to something about it,' Mark cuts off my train of thought, forgot about that, I look away embarrassed. My line of sight swipes across the now conscious but shaken up figure of Lucy, she had explained what had happened. About what that girl could do, and how she thought that that wasn't all her power. We stare at the fire, a lot less animated than normal.
'Mark mate, are you sure we're fine?' Lewis asks seriously, we all look over, he rubs a hand on his face in fatigue,
'It depends, Lew,' he said, 'are you ready to use your power for another cause rather than for yourself?' It was obvious that that was for everyone, but I felt like he added more to that last part, like he emphasised it in our minds. The air hung pregnant as we swallowed down our fears and doubts.
'Fuck me! We never signed up for this!' Tom sighed,
'Well, you're welcome to leave Tom.' Mark countered rather aggressively, the tension rose, but Tom held his ground and stared down at it deep in thought. Everyone wasn't themselves, James awkwardly played with some water while Adam fiddled around with the bonfire. Ffion was still looking out for Lucy, Hannah tossed her knife from hand to hand, Nadiya blew up blades of grass...all in all, everyone seemed pretty down.
'Look, let's just get through today and we'll talk about it next week, I need to go home and think, you guys carry on if you want, but the next school day's meeting is urgent as fuck.' Mark informed as he made his way out of reach of the fire's light.
