After about half an hour, most people were awake and beginning to get up. Slowly you stand up and stretch out, every muscle in your body aching.
You're startled when someone shouts out desperately, immediately you get up and run over to the growing group of people that are crowded around a body.
"What happened?" You ask and push through to see a woman on the floor, not moving.
"She just got up and as soon as she stood up, she collapsed to the floor and started fitting." A woman answered in a shaky voice, people were beginning to panic again.
You feel for a pulse but find nothing as Harry runs over to see what's going on, she's dead. A sick feeling creeps it's way inside your stomach once more as you stare at the dead body in front of you before standing next to Harry.
"Is she-"
"Yeah." You nod, not letting him finish his sentence.
"What were you looking for?" You ask and point to why he was wondering around on his own.
"There's been no sign of them and we've been here for nearly 24 hours, I thought we would have ran into some trouble by now." He shrugged and you nodded before turning back to the body.
Do you:
Stay and try to work out what killed her (49)
Or leave because you have to get as far as you can today and keep moving (55)
