CHAPTER 1 FOG

The phone in my pocket buzzed. I forgot that I had Bex's phone as well so I grabbed it without realising and looked at the message. Being best friends with her and her family for as long as I have means that I know things that I probably shouldn't...stuff like this. An email notification from Bex's parents which read.

REBECCA.

All in capitals meant only one thing.

'Um Bex' I leapt up from where I was and shoved the phone in her face. Her eyes scanned the screen and widened in fear.

'We need to go' She looked at me, I nodded and began to find the car keys

'What's going on?' Grant asked.

'Me and Cam need to pick up some things, that's all.' Bex tried to wave him away.

'You're a horrible liar when you aren't focused' Macey commented. Bex stopped. I stopped. She looked at me and I gave her the tiniest nod. She took a deep breath and looked at the others.

'It's my parents. They're in trouble'

Cam POV

'Are we there yet?' I grumbled from the passenger seat.

'We'll get there when we get there' Bex rolled her eyes 'Besides, look at this amazing view, the smell of fresh air-'

'It smells like shit!' Macey exclaimed from the back.

I rolled my eyes at how precious Macey was. When Bex had read the email we'd decided right away that we needed to help her parents. We were family and all there for each other. Besides a trip away from home and a chance for adventure excited us also. Bex had told us her parents were in Scotland, but where exactly we didn't know. So we had Liz trace the IP address on the email and we found where it was sent from a small town in the North West of Scotland.

Aerial pics gave us some idea of where it was and how to get there. Without telling anyone we had grabbed our gear and booked a flight. Landing in London and then taking another flight to Aberdeen where we hired out two cars to drive the rest of the way. The boys were in the car behind and the girls and I in the lead car.

'Horse manure is actually an excellent fertiliser' Liz pointed out, steering me away from my thoughts.

'We aren't in school anymore Lizzie' Macey quipped 'We've been dragged to the middle of nowhere to-'

'Do stuff that I love' Bex snapped. 'Sorry Mace but not all of us have private jets to take us to beach houses, some of us spend time in the middle of nowhere' Bex took her eye off the road for a split second to look at Macey in the rear-view mirror.

'WATCH OUT' I cried. Quickly Bex slammed on the brakes, but it was too late, we were already skidding across the road. I grabbed on the wheel to help Bex steer, the pull of the car was overwhelming as we spun off the road and down a ditch. Luckily we didn't flip. When the car stopped we were all groaning in pain. There was another screech of tyres following by what felt like a herd of elephants.

I heard Zach pounding his hand on the window and yelling at us.

'Everyone okay?' Zach asked yanking the door open.

'Yeah' I rolled my head around and stretched, feeling the satisfying clicks of my vertebras.

'What happened?' Grant asked helping Bex out of the car.

'There was someone on the road' I said, looking up at the where we fell from. There was no one and nothing.

'The road was clear Cam' Grant said. He was driving the other car.

'Are you sure you didn't hit your head?' Zach asked concerned.

'I'm fine' I batted away his hand but he caught it and pulled me into a hug.

'I'm just worried about you Gallagher Girl' He whispered into my hair. I squeezed him slightly. Our moment was ruined when Bex called us.

'We need to move now.' Her voice was shaky and slightly scared. I pulled away from Zach and noticed that a thick fog was coming upon us fast and it came out of nowhere.

This is a co-wrote story with the talented CammieAMorgan. You might know her stories, but if you don't I suggest you check her out, favourite and leave a review on her stories. She came up with over 80% of the writing in this chapter. I hope you like it. I'll upload every Thursday. This is supposed to be a spooky story and the Title will most likely change.
