I stop and look behind me. The weird boy- the one who I caught staring at me-and two others are there. One stand with his hands covering his ears and staring at his shoes, while the other stands frozen in place. "What just happened?" the boy who is frozen asks, barely moving.

"Great, let's make camp." I look back at Sarah, who seems a little unsure herself.
