Sweet Or Sour?

Chapter 6

Normal POV:

You jumped awake. Pressing your back against the jagged bark behind you. Slowly you began to register where you were and why. You pushed yourself out of the little cubby in between the roots. It was like an old fox home. The sun blinded you as you sat next to the little creek running down the hill. In the distance you could hear birds chirp their cheerful welcomes to the sun. You splashed water on your face, soothing the burning sensation from the sudden change in temperature. But you froze as you heard slow quiet movements. You twisted toward the noise. You saw a figure with a dark blue mask, blue jeans, and a black jacket. By the looks of it he was an average sized male. Your eyes met for a split second before the figure full on sprinted towards you. You reacting upon instinct stood and stepped back, unknowingly stepping right into the little fox home. It was accidental but it was a good move, you were shorter than the average (y/a) year old. So with that fact in mind you fit with room left over. You heard the figure skid to a stop above you. You somehow remained as calm as a sleeping child. He reached his arm in to grab you and drag you out. You just watched his hand, feeling around the parts of the hole he could reach. You heard the male above you talk into something. "Hey man...I never thought I'd say this...but I need your help..." He paused listening. "Fine! Just come help me!" He paused before you heard a thud. Then another thud as two feet were set on the ground, like the person above you had jumped. "What you need?" A new voice asked. 

Silence. 

"You want me to go in there? Ok buddy, be right back!" You saw a link-look-alike drop into the hole with you, except this one had black stuff dripping from his eyes, with one dot of red in the middle. You locked eyes with the boy. "Well hello sweet thing.~ EJ you should've told me she was this cute!" "Just hurry up Ben!" "Fine..." The boy you presumed was Ben crawled towards you. " C'mon darling. We have to come out now." He held out his hand. You looked at it a few seconds before shifting away from him. Ben's eyes were kind but you knew he was hiding something behind them. We all hide something within our eyes. He sighed heavily. "She doesn't want to." He looked up at the ground. "Make her come out!" The boy you presumed was named EJ yelled at Ben. He went to grab you. 

You sliced at his hand with Diane's pocket knife. 

He flinched away from you. He looked at his hand, his eyes growing wide. "What the heck!" "What?!" "She cut my hand!" "Oh boo hoo, you want a bandaid you baby?" Ben glared through the ground. Before looking back at where you had been. You ran down the other side of the hill. "Uh....EJ?" "What?" "She got away..." "What!?"
