" Can I set up some traps?" Coby has been nagging me for ever. I don't want anyone to get hurt. I can't take the risk. I turn back around and Coby is gone.
" He went to go get some vines." It's Lucy. She is feeling a lot better. She has gained colour in her face. Before it was as white as snow. But it's better now.
" Ok then, Snowy." I give her one of my smiles. She gives a little giggle. I can't wait until her birthday. She will be so happy.
" Anyone have a bottle." It's Dustin. He looks wet. His hair is dripping, and his clothes are unzipped.
" Water!" Is the only thing I can say. I run up and hug him. I don't know when he started looking, but he found water. My tongue has been dry and cracked this whole time. Inside my neck has been no better. It's all dry and dead.
Coby starts to walk back and sees Dustin's wet hair. He drops his vines and can't believe his eyes. I pick up the vines and try to weave together a bowl to keep some water in. It takes me a while but I make something that can carry water.
We start to walk when I see a chocolate brown flower. Like the colour of Lucy's hair. I pick it from the roots and run back to camp. I hide it where she can't find it, so I can give it to her tomorrow. I run to catch up with the guys when a hear a voice. One I haven't heard in ages. Like Ava. Screaming. Calling my name. Where is she?
" Ava!?! AVA!" I yell. I scream. Did they put her here to make some tension in the crowd. But they can't, can they?--------
Michael's p.o.v
" I can't make it!" It's the girl again. She has been complaining forever.
" Just tell me your name and well have a break." I'm getting really annoyed now. She is so annoying.
" Meg." She says in a quiet voice.
" Speak up woman!" I look over at Jarod. He's angry to. We both are. To angry.
" MEG! Ok. You happy." Jarod and I stare at each other. We are shocked.
" I was always happy." Even though Jarod was not, he still says he was. I just want 6 days to pass faster. By the look of the sun, it's some time around 12. Joanne will be really angry now. Not just angry, but furiously furious. When she gets angry, some people used to laugh at her, but now she scares all.--------
Alice's p.o.v
" Water!" I run towards the stream. I don't care if I get my clothes wet. I jump in. I hear the sound of foot steps but it's probably just us. The foot steps could be Coby, setting up a trap. We stay at the water until sun set. We play and have long gulps of the water. It's spring water. Never been my favourite but where I come from, no one cares. We deside it will take too long to walk back to camp. So we camp here. I find a tree with a stable branch and grab more vines. I make a blanket with the vines and everyone else does the same. I hang my jacket on a branch and climb a the tree I found earlier. The others find another tree and Lucy sleeps next to Dustin. Dustin must remind her if her brother. I look over at the lake and see the moons reflection. I close my eyes and I'm in a nice peaceful sleep.
* Thud Thud *
The sound of foot steps. It gives me a fright. I get up and see a girl running from a black beast. The beast is fast but the girl is faster. She stops by the lake and I see blood running from her neck. It's not Joanne.
I climb down the tree to go help. She is so shaken I have to ease her. The blood running from her neck was caused by what looks like a claw. I give her a drink from my bowl.
She screams one word. That's when I'm shaken. I try to get my bow out but I left it hanging from the tree.
" BEAR!"
