Chapter 14.Baji's group and Felix were seated in a small clearing in the forest, and discussing. It was mostly Felix telling them about his experiences and the reason for the disappearances. "...So that's how it all happened" Felix concluded, after talking for close to half an hour. The others Just kept silent and listened but they had the look of surprise on their faces, except for Baji and Donald."You really mean there are giant ants underground right now?" Anita asked as she shivered in fright and Felix nodded."I don't like ants." Joshua said with a straight face, insects scares him generally."Baji, you don't seem surprised?" Cordelia asked, after looking at him and noticing his thoughtful expressions.Baji looked at her and then sighed weakly. "At this point nothing can surprise me again. If we can see a talking tree monster, when what's there not to see.""So what are we gonna do now?" Joshua asked, expressing his concerns. "We will find out anything we can about ants," Fe
Chapter 15. Cordelia, Anita, Donald and Sofia were sitting together and discussing how they could get counter measures for the ants. "If only we could just get bug spray. This would have been so much easier." Anita sighed as she made a frustrated expression. She was the most frustrated even though she wasn't exactly doing anything to help solve the problem at the moment, but she just hated sitting down in one place with nothing to do. She wasn't the critical thinker type, she just preferred action. Cordelia looked at her and rolled her eyes. " Well, there's none. So let's just think of something else. And it's not like you were ever helping us." "Hey! I am helping…" She said back immediately but when she received disapproving glares from Cordelia and the others she conceited and added. "...in my own little way.""So you think that can save them?" Sofia said with a soft voice and shyly. The others turned to her and pondered on her question for a few seconds.Anita smiled and then
Chapter 16. "What's going on?" Cordelia asked groggily as she woke up from sleep. "It's Axel, he ran in here screaming for help. But he has passed out now." Joshua replied. "Wasn't he with Damien's group, so what is he doing here?" Cordelia asked with a frown on her face. "We don't know, we will find out after he wakes up." Joshua answered, still kneeling beside the unconscious Axel."It's the middle of the night. I really need to sleep." Anita cried out softly, she was also up because the ruckus had waken her up. "Should we let him sleep?" Felix asked, looking at the others. "Heck no! He woke us up this late, we must Atleast find out why, I can wake up for nothing." Anita said with a hint of anger, just as she walked over to Axel and began slapping him awake."Hey hey take it easy Anita, the dude is unconscious" Cordelia tried to stop her. Anita didn't listen she just continued slapping his face so he'll wake up"Wake up man, wake up." she said, her grievance stemming from her
'Please don't be morning, please don't be morning ' Baji prayed mentally with his eyes still shut as he tried harder to go back to sleep. The more he tried to sleep the less effective it was for him to go back to sleep. The sounds in the background and the feeling of the hard floor against his skin made it even harder for him to go back to sleep. He could hear the insects chirping and the birds already singing, the wind howling as it beat against the nearby trees. 'Wait, it doesn't feel right. Why do I hear insects and birds? I should be in my bed'Baji thought subconsciously as he forced his eyes open immediately, but the light from the surrounding flooded his eyes and caused him to shut them again. 'Something doesn't feel right'He kept thinking, his brain slowly waking up again. He opened his eyes again and this time it had adjusted to the lights, so he was able to keep them open longer than before with no discomfort. He saw the bright rising sun and trees first and he was genu
Everyone paused and listened to Hanson as they were reminded of their present predicament. They all just kept quiet since they were unable to tell what was happening. Hanson was typically the captain figure in the school football team, he was handsome, strong, had a good physique, a stubborn dominant male and basically doesn't know much when it comes to academics but his charms and other qualities always kept him going. Almost every girl in class and in the school had a crush on him. "So none of us knows how we ended up in the forest or where ever this is? " Hanson asked again equally as frustrated as the others.He stood beside a tree with his fist to it Like he was going to punch it at any given instant, his uniform was untucked since he loved flying his shirt. "maybe we were abducted or kidnapped? " Felix said, trying to make sense to the situation. But everyone quickly disagreed. "how can we all be kidnapped at the same time and none of us saw it happening." Hanson said. Cord
Everyone was caught off guard by the strange noise and they tried desperately to keep their wits together. "what was that? " Felix asked as he watched the direction of the forest it sound came from. Damian wiped a sweat from his face and replied "what ever that was, I don't want to find out. Doesn't even sound natural at all "A few of them agreed with him on that as they cautiously looked around. Some of them already hid behind the trees in the opposite direction . They all just remained there for a few seconds and then about a minute, five minutes and then nothing else happened. "I think it wasn't close by, but very far away at the other direction. "Felix said this time he was at the top of a tree branch and looking at the direction of the sound, hoping to see more from his elevated position. "do you see anything? " they asked him but he shook his head in response before he said. "I don't see anything but trees everywhere, let's just hope what ever that is doesn't come this wa
"Who is your leader?" the voice cried out again, more horrid than before, echoing through the woods and sending fearful reverberations across. They have not seen the face what it was that was talking but the tone of the voice, it's monstrous voice they heard and the unnatural silhouette they could see in the woods faintly rooted them on their feet in fear. They all staggered back in fear unable to think of anything to say or do at the moment. "I said who is your leader? " the voice thundered again as his head emerged from the woods to look at each and every one of them. The head was almost the same as an average man, only looking more monstrous. It had just one large eye on its forehead, brown eyes with red pupil. It's mouth was adorned with long sharp teeth and it looked like the that could extend more than the natural jaws could. It was the same colour as the trees and darker green shade, so that it could easily blend with the trees. It was around 7 foot tall in height and had
The rain kept falling and Baji was drenched yet still hiding behind the tree from The creature. His breathing was laboured and his body hurt all over, but he knew he had to do something to escape. The rain had given him a sliver of hope, he may not just have to die today. The creature came closer and closer to Baji's location as it tried all what it could to find him fast before the situation got any worse. Baji as well knew he had to move quickly or the creature will find him, so he stood up gently and began moving from tree to tree and he moved away from the creature. He moved to the first and then to the next, but when he was about moving to the other he stepped on a twig and it broke with a loud snap that the creature heard. The creature heard it immediately and focused its attention in that direction and immediately found Baji. "there you are little man "It said And immediately Baji's heart sank into his chest and he just ran away, towards where he could hear the r
