The brothers push on running at full speed to try and get to her before anything bad happened. Although not long after they began to grow tired and slowed into a steady pace, slower but more sustainable. All the while (Y/N) was starting to slow down as well.

"Come on.. Just a little further..!"

Her breath deepened and slowed then her legs gave in and she started to use her arms to drag herself along the floor. After what seemed like an eternity she grasped the stone and pulled herself towards it. Pushing herself off the ground, she tried to lay down only to have sharp pain rip through her back

"UGh. Dammit."

Tears stung her eyes almost as harshly the pain struck her side but she was far from rescue yet. Back to the boys, they had just reached about halfway back when they came to a crossroad

"Wait which way would she go? Has she come this far yet?" Ian questioned

"Check the phone, she talks to herself sometimes"

"She does?"

"Doesn't everyone?"

Ian shrugged and took the phone out of his back pocket, unlocked it, and held the phone up as to hear better. For a moment there was nothing until they heard faint muffled talking.

"She really does" Ian whispered

Barley put his fingers to his lips

"Shhhhh"

They held their breath and listened

"Well now look what you've done, you've gone and got yourself hurt. Well done (Y/N)."

Another few moments passed with complete silence and the boys glanced at each other

"Dammit. Dammit. Dammit! This is all my fault! Why would I be so stupid! That bridge was clearly not stable but I had to risk it just because I couldn't be away from them! How much dumber could I possibly get.."

her voice trailed off from anger to sadness to guilt, to grief.

"It's all my fault. I'm lost, their probably lost, we have no idea what kinda monsters live here and. They may not even be lost. Oh no, they could. They could be" 

her lip trembled, and she put one hand on her chest and the other tangled in her hair, she started to quietly cry

"They could be dead because of me"

Barley stared at the phone in longing and clenched his fist

"(Y/N)! I'm here! We're here! Were ok (Y/N)!"

Since her phone was in her backpack she only heard muffled voices

"God???" She asked, baffled

Once she realized it was coming from her bag she stuck in her hand and pulled out her phone, being delighted to see that she was on call with them

"Barley? Ian?"

"(Y/N)!!" They shouted together

"Guys! You're okay! you're alive! And you probably heard that..." Her cheeks went red

"(Y/N) it's ok, this isn't your fault, I should never have made either of you go through a sketchy looking portal like that I'm. I'm sorry.

"Barley. I'm sorry too I shouldn't have crossed that bridge even when I knew it wasn't going to hold me I should have used my brain"
