Endurance // M. Taylor

It was a long way back to the lodge, but I had decided that it would be worth it. I knew that it wasn't good being out here in the woods, Hannah and Beth only proved that to be true.

I keep walking up the long, snowy pathways. It was a good thirty minutes of complete silence other than the occasional bird chirp or stick crunching under my feet. I tried to stay relatively quiet in case anyone was trying to find me. I wasn't trying to get myself murdered tonight.

Before too much longer, I was right in front of the lodge. I run up to the door and knock as hard as I can. I wanted to feel the warmth of the couch and blankets again. I wanted something to drink and I wanted to cuddle up by the fire. I wanted to sleep.

"Guys! Are you in there? It's me, Roslyn! Can you let me in?" I asks them, still knocking on the door. To my surprise, the least expected person opens the door for me; Ashley.

"Holy shit, its good to see someone alive... Matt and Emily are dead!" I yell, still standing by the fire. It was so warm, it actually made me feel safe.

"Wait, what? They're dead? How?" Sam walks in, dressed in a red jacket and grey leggings. I look at her and hug her so tightly. I thought that I might not ever see her again.

"Matt...fell onto a wooden plank. And Emily, she fell into the mines when we were at the fire tower. We were trying to get in contact with people and get us out of here. But, something knocked the tower over and it collapsed into the mines." I say, still very upset and frustrated at what had just a happened.

Mike, Ashley, and Chris walk in and sit down beside us on the couch. I look over and they all seem to be okay, Ash is still covered in Josh's blood. I cringed at the sight, and everyone noticed.

"What do you mean knock the tower over? What the hell happened?" Mike asks me, and I look him up and down. He's covered in dirt and looks like literal shit. There's no telling what he's been through tonight.

"Something went around and broke the columns that hold up the tower steady. It caused the whole damn tower to fall over into the mines." I explain and they all look at me shocked to hear this. I wish I could make all of this up, but I'm afraid its not my imagination.

"So...what's next?" I say, and they all look over at me. I don't know what was going to happen until dawn. There was about three hours left. Chris stands up again tries to leave the room but a loud, feminine scream is heard. A scream that sounds very familiar.

The scream was coming from...

"EMILY!" I yell back, shocked to see that she was still alive. How? I have no fucking idea. She must have made it out of the mines alone. Damn, a lot can happen in seven hours, huh?
