Camila's POV

What the fuck is going on? We were just fine awhile ago now, it's all hell breaking loose. Lauren has been trying to calm down for 20 minutes now and I'm starting to freak out.

"Okay Camila, we need to go." Lauren says. I snap out of my thoughts and focus on her.

"Yeah you're right let's go to the others." I say.

"No. I need you to follow me." Lauren starts to walk off.

"No? We need to go to the others, they might need our help." I say.

"They don't, Madison hasn't sent out the emergency signal." Lauren turns into this cave. Now thinking about it there are a lot of caves her.

"What are we doing here?" I look around and it's literally like a scary movie.

"You need to stay here. I will come back for you." Lauren begins to walk out before I stop her.

"Like hell! I'm not staying here, my friends might need me." I huff out. "You may not care about anyone but I on the other hand care about my friends."

Lauren turns to me. Her eyes not showing any emotion, just a blank stare.

"I want to keep you safe." Lauren says.

"I want to keep my friends safe." I retort.

"Camila I don't have time to argue." Lauren says.

" I don't want to argue." Lauren rolls her eyes. "Let me come and help."

"I don't want you to get hurt. You're not trained to fight." Lauren was speaking softly to me. Her demeanor had become soft and fragile.

"I won't." I say confidently. Lauren looks out into the woods before she speaks again.

"Stay close to me. Do exactly as I say." I nod my head. "One more thing. Don't make promises you can't keep."

Lauren and I go off into the woods. She takes me to this tree that has some markings on it, I can't really make out what they mean but Lauren surly knows. She takes off a piece of the bark and inside the tree was two sharpe blades, and ammunition.

"We don't have guns." I tell Lauren.

"Not yet." She walks over to the opposite tree and starts to dig. Once she is done she lifts up four guns. Three hand guns and a sniper. She hands me a hand gun.

"Are we really going to kill them?" I question. Lauren looks to me and frowns.

"We do what we have to." She says it as if it was a normal thing.

"How do you know where they will be?" I was trying to find a place to put my gun.

"I don't." Lauren had her guns strapped to her body. She was ready for war. "Okay this is the plan. We're going to go to the others, once we're there you will stay with them. Madison and I will take care of everything else."

I know better than to argue or disagree with her. We make our way the group, my nerves start to get the better of me. Lauren on the other hand seems calm as if she has done this a million times. It's kinda attractive.

It takes us awhile to get to the group and the second we get there it's a mess. The kids were crying and everyone was panicking.

"Lauren." Madison says. Lauren and I walk farther into the cave and see everyone waiting.

"Madison get ready." Lauren says. She lays down the blades and the sniper.

"Lauren." Madison says again.
