"Hey! That's not fair! you know I'm not athletic!" Jordan protested.

The gang was in the middle of a serious snowball war.  Suddenly, the wind violently picked up and sent snow flying through the sky. 

"Whoa. What was that all about?" Chelsea wondered.

The wind picked up again, but this time more as a warning.  Jordan studied the sky then ran, flailing his arms and screaming:" Run for cover! Its a blizzard!!!!!"

Chelsea and Angela looked at each other and ran after Jordan. For a non-athletic person, he really ran.

Soon after they caught up to Jordan, they found a cave to spend the night in.

"So......WHAT DO WE DO NOW!" Chelsea bellowed.

"I dunno. Maybe GO TO SLEEP!" Jordan yelled.

"BOTH OF YOU SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Angela shouted.

Everybody fell silent. Angela, the usually loud one, fell asleep.  Jordan stared at Chelsea, and she ignored him as she worked to keep the fire going.

"Eventually, someone will have to get more wood." Jordan stated.

"Ill go get some here in a minute. Hold on." Chelsea replied.

Chelsea threw the rest of the tiny twigs in the fire and set off to find wood.  The cave opening was just about 5 yards away from where they were staying.  Snow had already begun to pile up on the ground, but at least it want a full on blizzard, yet.  Chelsea quickly ran out into the snow and to the nearest fallen tree, which was right outside the entrance. She gathered as many branches as she could and ran inside, chilled to the bone.

"Back already?" Jordan teased.

"Stop being such an ass." Chelsea hissed.

Jordan backed off as Chelsea sat the wood down. They went to their sleeping areas and listened to the howl of the wind. They both drifted off as the storm picked up and snow began to fall faster and faster. The cave they chose protected them, but cornering themselves in a cave would be their greatest mistake.
