Chapter 5: Valan

"AZUUUUUUUREEEE." I hear Jack's voice yell as I flinch, running outside. Great, just what I needed. My random half-brother yelling at me when I possibly have found the most precious ancient thing ever.

"Coming!" I yell back, as I run out, tying the ridiculously long shirt into a knot, saving a lot of shirt.

I rush outside, just to bump into Jack's back. Groaning, I rub my head.

"What is your chest made of? Steel? Iron? Oh my god..."

I search for Damien with my eyes and finally find him, and I can tell he's thinking the same thing.

"JACK IS IRONMAN!!!" We yell in sync, as he face palms so hard it probably left a mark.

"You two are hilarious! Really. Can't you see me rolling on the floor." he snarks sarcastically.

Damien and I giggle quietly as he walks away to Whitney and Tabs.

"Nice one, sis!" we fist bump, laughing at Jack's expense. If before I thought we were siblings, now it was confirmed.

We walk towards Whitney and Tabs, who are seated quietly on a large boulder. Whitney's leg has some crystal clear moisture on it, that shines when the light hits, and Tabs continues to spread it. Jack is complaining about Damien and I, making us roll our eyes in sync.

"Jeez okay, that's enough we get it! You don't like Robert Downey Jr!" I sarcastically says as Jack groans in agony.

"Oh god you-"

"Ow!!" Whitney yelps and all our focus diverts to her, worry covering my face.

"You okay?!" I practically yell and she meekly nods.

"It...just..hurts...." she pants through swallows of air. Tabitha shrugs.

"Well duh it's gonna hurt, dumbo. You worsened your gash by running around. I told you to tell me or Jack!" she scolds, as Whitney shrinks back nervously.

"Hey, give her a break. You both are pretty intimidating, to be fair, ya know?" I stand up for her. Jack seemed like an angry bull to me, and Tabs like a controlled...Rottweiler or something.

"What?! We are not intimidating!" They chorus, glaring at us.

"Oh yes, you are!" Whitney and I chorus back.

Their glares turn harsher, and the clearing of a throat brings me back to the real world.

"Listen, hate to break your World War III, but there are actual problems going on here, like WE'RE OUT OF CHOCOLATE SO FOCUS ON THE IMPORTANT THINGS INSTEAD OF THIS NONSENSE!!!" Damien yells as he stomps around, and all of us look at him, wilfully silent.

"WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?! WE'RE OUT OF CHOCOLATE?!" I scream as I bolt towards the upright bag that belonged to Jack, and scrambled in. All I found were empty bottles of medicine, soda, and stuff.

"NOOOOO!!" Whitney yelled, agonisingly limping as the three of us scrambled for a little piece of food.

"You three are..." Tabitha face palms, as Jack roars with a sinister laugh.

"Good luck finding the chocolate!" he grins maliciously.

"I HATE YOU!" I yell as I finally reach the last backpack: Tabs.

"Wait..no!!" Tabitha yells as I drown my hand in a fistful of weird stuff.

"FOUND IT!!!" I yell happily as I take out a perfectly wrapped Kit Kat, almost seeming to glow in this cave.
