*Luna's P.O.V*
There was a peaceful silence between Dawn and I. The uneasiness in my stomach from Dawn's questions had finally gone away and I could enjoy it. I listened to our breathing and the leaves that crunched beneath our feet as we walked, I am very happy that I got this alone time with Dawn. I was getting ready to speak but when I was about to open my mouth, an earsplitting shriek sounded out into the night.
*Chez's P.O.V*
I watched Emma walk away with daggers in my eyes before I turned around and started to walk. After a while of walking, I noticed that the ground started to grow barren of grass and was left with dirt. I looked up and saw the trees were gone and I had reached a small opening with a singular tree dead in the center, this made me extremely curious so I began to approach it. I had been walking for about 2 minutes now and I was really close to it so I began to jog but once I did I felt a sudden pain in my leg. I glanced down at my leg and saw thorns, they were tearing though my pant leg and cutting deep into my leg and I grunted in pain. Before I knew it blood was seeping out of the cuts and soaking into my pant leg. I turned so my back was now facing the tree and begin to pull the thorns from my leg finally, after one hard tug, I succeeded. Because I pulled my leg free from the thorns I began to stumble backwards a bit until I tripped over a root. My body crashed against the ground and something clamped right above my ankle, it was a bear trap. It tore away at my flesh and dug deeper and deeper until it broke straight through the bone, earsplitting shrieks left my mouth.. M-my foot OH GOD...I began to pant while staring at the blood as it was pouring from my wound onto the ground "HELP!! PLEASE ANYBODY!! HELP ME!" and with those few words I began to cry, I was gonna die out here..
*Emma's P.O.V.*
I heard a loud scream and I automatically knew it was Chez. I began to sprint in the direction of it, I had to save Chez, after some time I noticed a small opening, as I reached where the trees ended I saw Chez crying "CHEZ! I'M COMING I'LL BE THERE SOON!" I yelled out to her, she looked up at me with a shocked but happy expression.
I carfully started walking to where she was, making sure there was no more bear traps. After staring at the ground while walking, I stopped and looked up to where Chez was.
She had her eyes closed and was breathing heavily, I could tell she was trying to calm herself. I noticed something slightly peaking out from the side of the tree that was behind Chez...it was too shadowy to make out, I took a few more steps and the creature moved out from behind the tree a bit more.
Without taking my eyes off of the creature, I continued walking..it kept getting closer and closer to her with each step I took.
I stopped right as the creature stood in front of Chez and Chez screamed.
The creature pulled out what looked like an old gun that had a knife taped to the top, it shot Chez a few times.. Chez was almost dead now...it lifted its gun into the air and swung it back down stabbing Chez again and again.
Its head swung around and it started chasing me, I started to sprint for my life; I could barely see, the only light I had was from the moon...before I new it my body slammed into something..someone??To be continued
