Weston's POV
"Ouch" I cry out.

Ariel gets closer to me. I hold my arm in pain. It feels like I got stabbed. Which probably I did. I didn't notice.

"Weston, what happened?" She whispers to me.

Tears fall down my face. "Tyler happened," I croak out in a whisper.

She's crying, I can kind of tell in the darkness. "Ariel, it hurts, I can't go on!" I say.

"Weston, try and sleep I'll keep watch." She says and I nod.

Ariel's POV
I put his head on my lap and try to sing him to sleep.

He was like my little brother on tour, when there was thunder we would always go sit on the couch and talk until he got tired and went to bed.

But this is different. He got stabbed in his arm.

Weston must survive! He has too much to live for!

Eventually he drifts off into sleep. Whimpering. His poor little arm. Even though it's a twig arm, I can't help but feel sorry for him.

I hear a crack of a leaf, and a breaking of a twig.

Someone's coming...

I stand frozen. I put my hand around Weston's good arm. I quiet my breathing. Then I notice Weston is breathing very heavily. I put my other hand over his nose so it quiets down.

Another twig breaks, I bite down on my lower lip.

This is how I'll die. I can't prevent it.

Zach's POV
My goal is to find Ariel.

I step on another twig as it breaks. Dangit. I'm giving away my location.

I can't stop yawning, I'll just go in that cave and get some rest. I'll find Ariel soon. I can feel it.

I crawl into the cramped cave.

"Don't hurt me please," I hear a voice say. It's a familiar voice.

Ariel.

"Ariel! I found you!" I say whispering.

"Zach? Oh thank god!" She says.

She is holding onto Weston. "What happened with him?" I ask.

"He got stabbed by Tyler," she says.

Her eyes fill with tears. "Why don't you get some sleep, I'll watch for a bit," I say.

She nods. She motions me to go over to her, so I do. I put my arm around her, then she leans her head against my shoulder.

She eventually drifts off to sleep.

Okay, who's left? Paul, Cat, Kristen and Tyler dead. Me, Ariel, Weston, Brennen, Mackenzie, and Maci.

Only 4 people stand in my way from taking Ariel home.

Thank you all for so much support on my series! I love you all so much! I basically only write at night because that's my only time available. So I post late at night! Thanks!
