Craig of the creek: From beyond the creek

a new morning

Will woke up in his tent, it was  early morning and the sun was shining through the canopy of the woods, will got up, changed out of his pajamas and back into his shirt and shorts and going outside to make himself some breakfast which consisted of crabapple and dandelion salad, after eating his meal Will grabbed his trusty fishing rod and started to look for the stump the girl had told him about last afternoon, going through the woods and trying to stay away from the neighborhood area, it was a slow trip, every now and then finding a cool stick or two, up until he stumbled on some washed up debris, he stopped to rummage through it and found his telescope, Will was surprised of this, it was almost undamaged as he cleaned the lenses and put it on his backpack, this trip was getting better, he then stumbled upon a giant rock, the sun was hitting the top, and there was someone sitting at the top off it... now we know this girl's name was Helen, she was unfortunate enough to have parent's so strict that she could only be at the creek for  short amount of time and then have to get home before anyone else even got to play on the creek, or at least that is what she thought  until she heard some rustling behind her she quickly turned around and asked "hello ?, is some one there?" she got up and walked towards the noise "Craig ?" she looked in the bushes, but saw no one... until he dropped from the trees and landed right behind her

Will looked at the terrified girl in front of him, as she spoke "Craig ? is that you ?, where are your friends? wow you are bigger than I thought" Will was confused to say the least "who's Craig ?, who are you ?" Helen now knowing this wasn't the person she thought was relieved "my name is Helen, who are you ?" Will quite surprised at this non-hostile response took a bit to answer before finally introducing himself "my name is Will" "what are you doing here ? are you new to the creek ?" asked Helen  "you...could say so" answered Will not wanting to reveal how he got there to begin with, he actually wanted to get moving before more people showed up, "look I have to go, I need to to find something" "wait hold on, you are the only other kid I met in person so far here, can I go with you?" asked Helen as Will turned around to leave "uh... fine, just don't make a lot of noise" "OK" as they both turned to leave Helen asked one last thing " how old are you?" "I'm 15" Will responded "wow you are tall for your age, I thought you were at least 17" "I can't help it" Will said as they went into the woods again, starting to explain everything that happened up to then.

meanwhile in another part of the woods, Craig and his friends were heading towards the stump, quite early, and they were talking about the kid that Omar had told them about, "how do you think we are going to catch this kid if we don't even know what he looks like ?" asked Kelsey "relax, right now we have to warn kids about him, if they see him they will tell us were to find him" "I wonder what he looks like" said JP staring into the woods "I don't know, I just hope he isn't too, aggressive" said Craig hopefully "what if he is so big he hits his head with the branches all the time ?" asked JP "yeah, what if he is stronger than... than... Boris?" said Kelsey "a worthy opponent for sure" "guys we don't want to fight him, we will try to talk to him first" said Craig trying to calm his friends down but to no avail, they kept suggesting how the kid could look like,  until they got to the stump, it was open,

 and someone was inside.
