Chapter 2: the new Beginning
At around two in the morning I heard a strange noise from out side the tent. It definitely wasn't a tree or an animal. It was the creepiest thing that I have ever heard. It sounded like pain, there's just no other way to describe it. For a moment I thought that it was my annoying little step sister playing one of her sick pranks on us, but then I realised that she has no way of getting into the forest in the middle of the night- unless she has a new and older boyfriend that has a car but I doubt it.
So I ran out of my tent and headed to where the sound was coming from. I think I heard Kat coming from behind me first or was it Liz? I can't remember. All I can remember was running out of the tent that I shared with Asia and Rera, who were right behind me as I ran. I can't say for sure how long we were running for, but I do know that we ran a full six kilometres.
Then, at last we ran into a clearing near the campsite. There embedded into the earth was a weird lump of rock giving off a light. It was giving off weird green light rays. Mead, Liz and Kat were standing there mouths ajar staring into the lump of rock. When Asia and Rera got there they had no choice but to just stop stare at the rock like the others.
I don't know how long we just stood there in our pyjamas gapping at that rock thing. It might have been hours it might have been seconds. I just recall that it was compelling and I felt the urge to stay put. I managed to fight the urge to stay still, but when I tried to move my legs to move my body away from this place, the rock exploded it gave off a shock wave through the ground and the air and we all went flying in different directions.
I remember screaming, but I don't remember hearing it. While in the air I felt a stab of pain in the left side of my chest before I hit a large tree and was knocked out. The last thing I remember before I passed out was a crackling pain in my head, arms and back.
The others must have been out to because we all woke up in what looked to be the positions we landed in.
There was something different about my friends though. They had changed. Like seriously mutated changed from before. I could only tell it was them by the expressions on their faces. Their bodies had grown more developed and taller. Rera's skin had turned tan. Asia's had gone even paler than before. Kat's coco completion was suddenly almost ink black. Liz's pale skin was a light brown. Mead's freckles that had once been her dominant feature were gone and her skin had turned snow white.
Rera's hair had gone from a long and knotty light brown to a long and straight snow white. Asia's hair that had been short, straight golden was short and curly dark purple. Kat's once short curly black hair had gone to a long straight caramel. Liz who had always had medium straight blond-white hair was suddenly a long wavy dark brown. Mead's ginger long straight hair was suddenly short turquoise curls.
Their faces had changed as well; Kat's broad sharp face had become a soft heart shape with high cheek bones. Liz's strong facial features had been had become more delicate, slimmer and smoother. Mead's face had lost not only its freckles but her wide fore head and slim lips had been changed to better fit her face. Rera's had changed from pimples to a perfect completion and her features had taken on a sharp but elegant look. Asia's forever chubby baby face had been reorganized into a more bone lined sculpture.
Their old eye colours had been changed to a soft purple. And their seashell pink nails had been exchanged with golden tinted nails- it was as if the gold had always been on their nails- and they all had a green gem lodged into their skin.
Rera had one in the centre of her forehead similar to a Bindi. Asia had one right in her bellybutton acting as a bellybutton ring. Liz had one on the back of her shoulder which resembled a tattoo. Kat had one in the centre of her palm acting as a strange unnatural freckle. And Mead had one on her check right under her left eye like a tear.
