Found II
Song recommendation : let me down slowly by Alec Benjamin and heartbreak anniversary by giveon .
"Where is Emily ?? "Was his first question to her as soon as she got to them.
Nancy stopped to catch her breath , her eyes felt heavy and her head was spinning . She slid to the floor , unable to stand any longer , her legs were shaking so badly and her body aches .
"Are you okay?? " Samuel grabbed her before she could fall on the floor and maybe smash her face . She nodded , not wanting to talk , no , she couldn't talk. Her heart was still beating fast and her mouth seems to be glued shut
"I... She...in the .. pit...Nestle ..b..u.." if that could be called a sentence , that was the only thing that came out her mouth . Samuel was the only one who got the gist of it as Micheal was ansty and irrational at the moment .
"She fell in the pit ?? " Samuel asked her and check her face for confirmation . She nodded and regretted that she did . Because as soon as she did , Micheal sped off without saying anything to any of them .
"Can you hold out for a minute?? I need to go after him . I'll be right back " he patted her on the back and took the path that his brother took .
She shouldn't have said that !!; She buried her head in her knee and stay like that for God knows when .
"Micheal !! Micheal !!! Wait ! " Samuel shouted to the man's back . He stopped for a minute to look at Samuel , before resuming his Sprint .
Samuel sighed and looked around the forest , she mentioned a pit . Where could the pit be ?? He moved slowly , trying to see whatever he could with the little light providing by his hand phone . A pit , a pit . Was the only thing he kept repeating in his head .
Then , he saw something suspicious , a large , large amount of creepers . Lots and lots of creepers that surrounded somewhere . This has to be it !!
"Mike , Micheal?! I found it .!!! " He shouted into the forest .
Micheal came running back , immediately the words came out Samuel's mouth .
"Where ?? Where ?! " Was the first question he asked him .
Samuel pointed to the place , and they both moved closer to it . To inspect the place .
"This must be the pit that she's talking about . This is it ." Micheal took off his slippers and was about to lower himself into the pit .
"Are you a fool ?? Huh ? Are you an idiot? So you're just going to enter it without checking if she's there first ? " Samuel held Micheal's clothes to stop him from going . Micheal took some deep breath before replying
"She's inside . " He spoke with clenched teeth . He was shaking as Samuel still held on to j without letting him go . Samuel can't blame his brother , because if Hana was to be in the same situation as Emily he was very sure that he would have gone nuts . But still , they have to weigh the cons and prons of the situation before diving into it .
"What do you want me to do ?? To sit back and watch while she's suffering? I ...can't ..I .." his voice broke and Samuel sighed . He patted his brother on the shoulder .
It was hard seeing Micheal been an emotional mess like this . But they have to do something. Before it was late .
He touched one of the creepers to see if would be able to withstand the weight of two people . It was risky but it could try if that someone is careful enough .
He pointed his torch light inside it and he saw her there , curled up and her body bruised and scratched here and there . He lifted his face to look at Micheal and he thought he saw a lone tear run down his cheeks before he cleaned it up quickly .
He's brother was well and truly whipped
"I have an idea . You'll grab on to one of the creepers and you have exactly five minutes before it'll break . And there are thorns and Nestle in there so you'll have to be extra careful when carrying her . Be careful not to touch anything . " Samuel explained quickly while simultaneously preparing one of the creepy creeper and adjusting it to suit their need .
"Here you go . Remember , only five minutes . " He handed it to Micheal and reminded him again
Micheal collected it from him and lowered himself swiftly into the pit . The sight shattered his heart into a million pieces . There she was , all curled up , bruised and unconscious . Tears were dried in her face and she looked so pale and unsightly.
"See what you caused with your adventurous ass . See what you did to yourself . " He carried her in a bridal style and looked around the pit , he caculated where he would place his legs and hands to avoid the thorns and Nestle . No , the thorns weren't the problem but the Nestle .
The body was full of bruises from the scratch . He grabbed the creeper / Vines and held them tightly in one hand with Emily slunged above his shoulders .
With a few steps , he was out of the pit but not before a thorn or two had pierced his skin . Samuel helped him up and he groaned . He laid Emily on the ground for some minutes . He was afraid of tripping over , but most because he he has to check her condition . Her lips was chapped and her hair ragged
"We have to get her there now . She's unconscious . And Nancy too might be unconscious . " Samuel carried the dried sticks and hay that he had quickly gathered when Micheal was in the pit .
Micheal carried Emily , and his bag, he walked slowly after Samuel . He was too dull and more than anything his heart was the one in more pain and he couldn't he understand why ?
When he wasn't the one that got hurt . He pushed that thought aside , those could wait . Everything else could wait , at least until he had gotten her to safety .
They stopped when they got to where Nancy was , Samuel moved closer to her and tapped her
"Nancy ! Nancy ! Hey !! " He shook his head to Micheal to show that she's out of it . He nodded at him , telling Samuel to carry her . Both were communicating with only their head and eyes .
Samuel cursed a little as he bend down to carry her . He carried her just like how Micheal was carrying Emily .
***********
" "Do you think they would have found them now ??" " Hana asked worriedly . The three of them sat down on the dried twigs and leave that Gabriel made for them . It was clear as a daylight that they wouldn't be going nowhere again today. They were going to camp somewhere for tonight .
And to top it all , she was so hungry right now , that even the word hungry couldn't describe her hunger . She couldn't actually blame Emily as the others were doing , because she had been partially excited when Emily mentioned it to her. She been excited to go on a ' hike ' and it was a once in a lifetime opportunity to go with them all . When there contract won't be active for that long again . It's been three weeks and some more
"We won't be going anywhere again will we ?? It's too late too " Mera looked up from the drawings and inscriptions that she had been scribbling on the ground since Micheal and Samuel has gone . She was very scared for both Emily and Nancy . How couldn't she be ? When there is still no sign of either of them . Neither Micheal nor Samuel is in sight . Emily and Nancy too were no where to be seen .
She couldn't afford to lose anybody . Emily might be a psychopath that has a weird sense of humor and quite a temper but none the less she still her friend . No , not her friend , her sister. Both Hana and Emily were like sisters to her . And now here they are , their chances of survive getting slimmer by the passing seconds .
"They are coming ! ." Gabriel pointed to the faint light coming towards them . He let out the breath he had no knowledge he had been holding since , out and a small small curled around his mouth when he saw that the two men were carrying the ladies . The light got brighter as they approached them , he stood up from where he sat , not that the seat was even comfortable to begin with . The twigs were pricking him to no end and he was more than glad to get some breather .
"You found them ! " Mera smiled widely but her smile wined away when she saw Emily's condition .
Micheal said nothing , as he slowly knelt down and let Emily out of his back , putting her on the makeshift chairs if it could be called one that Mera and the others sat on , a moment ago before he arrived with Samuel.
Samuel did the same , gently letting Nancy out of his back . He dropped his bag , that was now housing some weird berries that he and Micheal found on their way here .
"Oh my God !! Oh my God ! " Hana sobbed into her hand as she saw how badly Emily was hurt . There were lot of scratch mark on her legs and face . Dried tears and blood .
"There is a cave , not far from here . We'll camp there for tonight . " He spoke like a man whom a great many evil had befall in his lifetime
After cleaning the dried blood and tears , and removing the twigs that were stuck in her hair , he carried her again and without saying anything , he carried his back and walked away . They all stared at themselves and at Nancy that also laid unconscious on the chair .
"What do we do now ?? " Mera asked Gabriel and he shrugged looking at Samuel for answers .
"We follow him . Gab carry my bag for me will you ? There are some berries that I got on my way here , we can eat that when we got to the cave . But for now , he have to follow Mike . I'm even afraid for him . " He carried Nancy and they all leave , following the light from Micheal .
Gabriel groaned as he carried the dried leaves and everything,his bag and Samuel's bag . He looked like a mad man right now .
This was truly a day that they won't ever forget throughout their existence .
"This is harder than I initially thought. " He said to no one in particular . Everybody was thought in their own thoughts , either thinking of how they might survive or how they might die .Download Novelah App
