Alex POV (wow I am totally posting! Yes. I would have earlier like usual but my CT class made me present stuff)
I push the trees away from my vision and we are back at the highway. I turn around and look at my companions. Sean is carrying Rumi piggy back and Camen walks up close to me. I sigh as I look upon the bags underneath their eyes. We are all tired. I can't remember the last time I had a peaceful night.
"Okay everyone. You all need to be on your guard! Each of you pull out a weapon. We are going back onto the highway." I say with regret
"Okay," Camen replies, taking out two knives, handing one to Sean
Rumi takes a stick from a tree and raises her eyebrows at me. "Oh honey, you aren't going to use a weapon." I say taking the stick from her and cracking it over my knee, sending it spiraling into the woods.
"Okay stay together and lets keep moving." I say
They all agree and we get up onto the rocky road.
"Hey everyone lets do something to pass the time." Camen says with an excited gleam in his eye
"Camen it's too hard to make out and walk at the same time, sorry to inform you." Sean says with a chuckle
"Oh I beg to differ," Camen replies looking at me with a hungry look in his eye but upon my glare he adds "but that's not what I meant."
"Then what did you mean?" I growl
"Scary stories." He says laughing like an evil clown in an old carnival
"Who first?" Rumi asks, her voice shaking
"You," Camen replies ruefully
"Oh well see um I'm not really good with," Rumi says but gets interrupted
"Just try my Room-Room." Sean says with a comforting smile
"Okay, I will. So there was this guy who like met this girl with the palest of hair and the bluest of eyes. Well then, you see, he met her friend and that girl had black hair. Well the black haired girl murdered the guy then well he died. So the end." She says with a sheepish grin
"Goodness Rumi you gave me shivers." Camen says so I slap him on the arm
"Stop being rude, maybe you should try to out do her." Sean says in response
"Fine, okay? I will. Now don't go crying when you can't think of anything else to be better than what I say." Camen says with an attitude "Okay so one night deep into the forest was a girl. She had dark hair like midnight blue and eyes like the red of the fires deep in the pits of Hell itself-" I cut him off
"Language! I don't respect that you use those words around me." I growl
"I was using it as an example, mind you. So this girl she crouched low, listening to the sounds of the forest. Well as she listened she heard a creak like a Halloween special from back in the days. So she got up quickly and hid in the bushes where she could just watch the scene that laid out before her. Then, the sound came from right beside her head, where there was her head hanging from a rope, the eyes like deep holes and the hair like ragged patches. The end." Camen says
"That was horrible." I say
"Well why don't you try to top my amazing story." Camen says with a wink
"Oh I can." I say with a smirk
"Sure, I'd like to see you try" Camen snarks
"Well there was this man with a machete who walked around killing people for a living. He murdered children and destroyed families. He made them cry and he made them scream. He even brought some to their knees. See this, he thought was a great way to kill them because he could see them suffer. Watch the life drain from their eyes, it's his favorite part. He smiles to them and whispers in their ears just as they are about to leave 'Dear darling you're not the first, nor the last, but I'd tell you what, you are my favorite way of torture.' Then as he waited for them to go on he smiles and walks away." I say with a smirk looking at the horrified faces on the rest of my friends.
As we keep looking I see the sun setting on the horizon and it is beautiful. Rumi seems a bit on edge as she huddles closer to Sean for support. We keep walking and I get tired so I go over and lean into one of the cars. We can sleep in here today. I say getting in and curling up into a tight ball in the corner. Sean gets in the front bench seat with Rumi and Camen piles in next to me.
"I never got to say my story!" Sean protests crossing his arms in annoyance
"Then go ahead, creepy ponytail." I reply leaning into Camen
"Well okay then, smart alec." Sean says rudely
"A girl and this guy are sitting in their accord talking and the girl and him they go to the market and she steals, blames it on him, and then is all like kill him for blaming it on me! And then the person running the stand kills both of them." Sean says, telling us his creepy story.
"That isn't scary, I kill people all of the time." I say laughing
"Oh well I'm going to sleep." Sean says
"I'm super tired." Rumi says smiling
"Yeah Alex and I will go to sleep too." Camen says
