Until Dawn

Chapter 29

((This chapter is after Chapter 43 of Elenore))
I woke up before Ciel that morning, and sat up in that small green tent of ours. I quietly unzipped it and walked out, zipping it up after me. It was dawn, so I sat on a rock for a while just watching it. I lit the fire and made leftovers for when the others woke up. I ate mine quickly. The image of the demon I'd seen inside that beast still haunted me. It was like somebody had taken Satan, and combined him with 666. Then piled every frickin demon ever to be in existence on top of it. Its presence was so strong it physically moved me. I sighed, deciding it was something to think about later, and pained on my knees.

After about thirty minutes, Ele woke up. She got out carefully, and I waved to her slightly. I nodded my head toward Ciel's tent then closed my eyes to symbolise sleeping. She nodded and sat opposite me, then began to eat her leftovers. I whispered,
"He sleeps a lot, doesn't he?"
"Well... I've not seen him sleep this much so far..." She said, reluctantly. I nodded and stretched. It was always hard to converse with people such as Elenore; girls. I just... Could never spark a conversation. Eventually, after about an hour, Ciel woke up, and I said I'd take the first clean, I hadn't since my home had been broken. They agreed, and I walked behind the rag we had put up in place of a curtain. I throw my clothes into a plastic bag, then sank myself into the water, the water warmed by the sun. I closed my eyes and leant my head back. I started washing myself off, but I kept comfy as I did. I suddenly found myself singing a song, and pretty well, I might add. I sighed and stood, the water dripping off my hairs. I got out of the brook, dried off and threw back on my clothes. I just stood for a second, then knelt down to get some fresh water for the flasks. When I got back, Elenore pointed out a small tear down the seam of my top. "Damn... Oh well. I... Kinda lost all of my clothes the day before yesterday." I said, and she said to herself,
"That's true..."

Me and Ciel sat in our tent and discussed what I had seen inside the creature. That was the longest discussion I'd ever had. When we left, I Said I'd do dinner. So I went to the brook and caught a cod and two haddock. I brought them back, and cooked fish for dinner. We ate, then went to sleep in our tents.
