I laid on the grass coughing up the water, but at the same time, I tried to take deep breathes. I closed up my glasses and held them in my hand. I slowly stood up, and went to help Janessa, Caleb, and Jade. They were all out of the water.

"Are you guys okay?" I asked.

"No! We all just fell through a hole, and almost died!!!" Janessa said.

"I'm alright..." Caleb said.

"How about you Jade?" I asked.

"I'm fine," Jade replied.

I looked closer at the pools of water, and they were inside of the grass. They weren't engraved, but left a hole where they could've filled it with water.

"Where are we?!" Janessa asked.

I looked around and just saw a small forest, with wooden houses, and fog.

"HELLO?!!!" I yelled.

Then I see a figure walking towards us in the fog. It got closer and closer. But when I first thought it was just one figure, one stepped out from behind the other person. There were two figures. We all backed up. As the figure got clearer, I made out what they looked like. There was a female and a male.

The female was wearing a dirty blue shirt, blue pants, and had her short shoulder hair the same color as her glasses. The male was wearing a blue shirt, dirty khaki pants, and black hair.

"Welcome back," The female said.

"Who are you?" I asked.

"Well, I'm Mia, and that's Nick," She pointed to the male.

"You guys were brought here for a reason. Don't fuck around here, or else you'll get your ass kicked," He said.

I found them to both be a bit short, and skinny. But the only person that really did scare me was Mia.

"We're the leaders here," Mia said.

"Mia's the Head Leader, and I'm her Sidekick," Nick said.

"You expect you to be afraid of you guys?" Janessa asked.

Mia walked closer to her, and it pushed her away.

"Listen, we just got here, and we shouldn't be treated like this!" I said.

"Alright. Number One Rule is, never be a smart ass! I don't care how old you are, I've been here longer!" Mia claimed.

"I've been here second," Nick said.

"Nick!" Mia sad.

"Yeah?" Nick asked.

"Not now!" Mia argued.

"Oh. Sorry..." Nick said.

I can tell he was a real loser, for letting someone telling him what to do. If I were him, I'd stick up for myself.

"Alright, let's go meet the rest of the gang," Mia said sarcastically.
