"Courtney you shouldn't be walking around! you're still injured and I'm not letting you get worse!" Bandit yelled. "Fine." Courtney went back to her 'room' really just her tent. She went to sleep but she had another nightmare. It was her and Mikey, just him hitting her. And all the suffering she's had. It was terrible almost ten times worse then what it actually was. She even saw Ace, and the others murdered in front of her. "Ahhh!" Courtney awoke screaming. Sara ran in to see what had happened. "Courtney are you okay?" "I... I think so." Courtney said through the tears. "Hey what happened?" Ace said walking in. "Ah don't kill me please don't kill me!" Courtney said hiding in Sara's arm. "Hey I'm not going to kill you, okay Courtney? I'm a friend, not a enemy." Ace said softly. Courtney ran over to him and hugged him and buried her face into his shoulder. "Shh. it's okay." Ace said trying to calm her down. "Courtney it will be okay, I promise." Sara said.
Ace stood there for hours hugging her and trying to calm her down. It finally worked when she went back to sleep. He lade her down and sat next to her. She moved closer till she was holding his waste and he was holding her shoulder. "Mikey I will find you and kill you. You mess with one of us, you mess with all of us. Don't even think about hurting another one of us. I will find you and kill you. You did this to your own sister. I mean that's low even for you." Ace said in his head over and over again.
Ace had rarely seen Courtney cry. No one really had, but if Mikey can make her cry like that. Then there is a problem. "Morning!" Bandit yelled coming out of the tree. "Morning!" Chris and Sara called back. "I was thinking today we should go get more supplies like medicine, medical stuff, food, and clean water. We could spilt into three groups. Ace and Courtney can get medical supplies, Chris and Sara you guys could get water, and I'll get food!" Bandit said. "Don't eat it all Bandit save some for us." Chris said. Bandit made a pouty face. "Okay were in." Ace said coming out of the tent. Bandit walked over to Ace and pulled him behind the tent. "How'd you and her sleep?" she asked quietly. "Good for awhile, and then...." "Then what Ace?" "She had another dream last night. I helped but Mikey put something into her mind and I just hope she'll want and be able to sleep." "She will, she just needs to know someone's there. now get her and let's go!" Bandit ran to the others we were already heading to town. Ace walked over to the tent and walked in. "Hey Courtney everyone is heading into town to get supplies, we have to get medical supplies. That okay?" Ace asked. "Yeah totally fine." Courtney said standing up and walking out.
"Okay so we need to get :bandages, rubbing alcohol, needles, thread, and some pain medicine." Ace said as he read the list Bandit gave him. "Okay, it shouldn't be that hard to get." Courtney said kinda soft while she kept looking at the ground. "Is there something over there that caught your eye?" Ace said since he saw her looking at the ground. "Oh no just looking around." "Sure you sent thinking if last night? Or that you are looking for things Mikey could have booby trapped?" Ace said. "No I said I'm fine Ace!" Courtney said walking in front of him down the path. "good job Ace good job!" Ace said sarcastically to himself. "Hey Courtney in sorry, please wait!" Ace said calling after her. "hey what's wrong please tell me I wanna help. You can trust me." "It's just this while Mikey thing. It would have been fine of he just stayed away. But now he's interfering with you guys, and he's in my head and I can't get him out!" Courtney said whipping away a tear. Ace turned around and out both hands in her shoulders. "It's going to be okay, I'm not going to let anything happen to you, again." "Thank you Ace."
They both walked into town and got the medical supplies they needed and walked back to camp. They meet up with the others and had dinner. Around three hours later it started raining. Not just normal rain, but a bad storm.
"Quick Ace grab the stuff and head under the cliff over there!" Chris shouted. "Got it!" they all were running grabbing stuff and running towards the cliff. "Sara!" Chris yelled pushing her out of the way as a tree fell right where she was standing. "Thank you Chris u owe you one!" Sara said smiling "No thanks necessary." Chris said picking her up and running under the cliff.
It wasn't a thunder storm, it was a hurricane. A hurricane spitting out tornadoes here and there. Since the gang is not in shelter, like a house or cellar. They're in trouble.
