THE LUCID INTERACTIVE MIND PROJECT // LIMP

on the run like a killer

 Michael was sitting near the creek trying to find anything he could use as some sort of fishing pole. Spying a tree branch with a leaf and a caterpillar on it, he pulled it off of the tree and dipped it into the water hoping he'd get a fish of some kind from it. Feeling something heavy, Michael quickly pulled the branch out of the water to get a small fish in success. It'd probably feed all of them for the night if cut correctly, so he went and grabbed some leaves from the tree and wrapped up the fish and took it to where the van was and opened the trunk and stuck it in there for the time being.

            Tatum walked around the northern portion of the forest picking up some rocks and sticks as she went trying to do it as fast as possible. She kept picking up and switching out some rocks and branches depending on size only to get exhausted ten minutes or so later. Looking up, she began to go towards the van to see Michael there.

            "Heard anything from Jerrica or Ophelia yet?" asked Tatum.

            "Nah, but I heard some screams while trying to think of something to catch some fish with. I guess it depends on which one gets back here," Michael answered with a shrug.

            Ophelia, with no luck whatsoever, walked back to the van to only see Tatum and Michael talking about her and Jerrica.

            "My ass heard some screams and the three of us are back at the fucking van, so," commented Ophelia only to pause and have a deep realization, "Wait that means Jerrica's fucking dead! Do you guys know what that fucking means?"

            "Oh, dear, let's escape this forest and see if the van could still be driven. I was able to open the trunk, so it should still work," said Michael as he looked down, "What are we supposed to do now that Jerrica's dead..?"

            "It'll be months or years until somebody finds her corpse! We need to escape as soon as possible so we don't end up like her!" screamed a frustrated Tatum as she stuck her rocks and branches into the trunk.

            Ophelia walked into the driver's seat with Tatum and Michael getting in the back and buckled their seatbelts. She quickly backed the van up and went to the western part of the forest spying rails from an interstate. Pushing on the gas, she ran over to bodies, so Ophelia backed the van up once again and got out only to gasp.

            "Guys! I think I just ran over Jerrica's body," said Ophelia frightened by her actions while driving, so she picked up the bloody body and stuck it in the trunk and went back into the driver's seat and resumed driving.

            "Oh my, she's dead. What are we going to do with her corpse? This is such a bad situation!" screamed Tatum looking at the dead body, "OMG, her lower right leg is gone! I can see her neck veins! What the fuck happened to her while she was looking for firewood?"

            "I think I'm gonna be sick," whispered Michael as he quickly opened the door and puked due to the body.

     Once they got onto the interstate, Ophelia spotted a woman in the middle of the road and slammed the brakes because she didn't want to run over another body. Getting out of the car, Ophelia grabbed the woman's hand and allowed her to sit in the passenger seat for her safety.

        "Th-th-thank you so much. I-I-I was afraid they'd get me back in there again. Oh yes, I-I-I was," thanked the woman shaking Ophelia's hand slowly, "M-m-my name is Amethyst."

      "Ophelia. The other blonde is Tatum, the blackhead is Michael, and the redhead's dead body is Jerrica. Nice to make your acquaintance. Your ass is going to get away from this area with us," replied Ophelia as she resumed driving being a more superior driver compared to Jerrica and Tatum.
