This is just something I typed up out of boredom one afternoon =p

I'm Luna, Skylar is my close friend and 'older brother'. Eh... this is my first story on here, so it's really REALLY short. If you guys like it, I'll wrote more, but... yeah xD

reviews are loved =3

Add me on runescape if you want. I'm Korettln


There was no use hiding it. I was lost.

"We're lost, aren't we?"

"No! The great Zamorakian Seer Luna never gets lost!" I cried turning to face my companion. Skylar raised an eyebrow and stared at me. No, I couldn't hide it... he knew I was lost. I sat down and sighed loudly. Skylar sat down beside me and offered me his canteen. I received it appreciatively and took a short drink of water then handed it back to him. "I'm sorry, big brother."

"None of this is your fault," he replied, putting his around me protectively, "it's this damn forest." I didn't reply and just stared at my pointy black-and-red wizard boots. The forest was a complex and dangerous maze, but that didn't change the fact I had led us to another dead end. What kind of Seer gets lost? "Well, come on Luna," said Skylar as he stood up and offered me his hand, "we're not going to get home by just sitting here."

"I brought teleport runes you know." I replied as I took his hand and dragged myself up. That was the number one rule of exploring, after all: never leave home without a way to return home.

"Well, going through the underground tunnels again will take forever, so we might as well finish this expedition." Skylar replied as he began to walk. I had to run to keep up with my older brother. It shocked me how he could maintain that stride in all that dense armor. We walked for a while, Skylar's pace never faltered and I had caught up to him so that I was able walk briskly instead of run. He was whistling in a nonchalant, relaxed manner. It was almost like he was completely oblivious to the danger surrounding us. I, on the other hand, was watching the ground cautiously. A fellow I had met at the Varrock Exchange had been telling a group of beginning adventurers about his exploration into the Elven Lands. I had heard him say it was a hostile, terrifying land with traps concealed so expertly, you wouldn't notice them until it was too late. He had gone by himself and barely escaped with his life, apparently.

I reached for my older brother's hand tentatively. He closed his large, strong hand over mine. Skylar looked at me curiously.

"What's wrong Luna?"

"Something isn't right about this place, I thought it was supposed to be filled with traps."

"We must be lucky!" He released my hand, laughed and continued forward. Just as he set his foot down, he fell through the light green patch of ground that had seemed perfectly solid just a moment ago. He cried out in pain as he hit the bottom of the pit.

"Skylar!" I cried, the panic in my voice all too obvious "Are you okay?" I glanced into the pit, being careful not to lean forward too much so I would not fall down there as well. Skylar was sitting up with his back against the wall. He looked up at me and nodded. My older brother was breathing heavily. It was hard to see his face from where I was, but I presumed his expression was twisted in pain.

"Hang in there!" I called and undid the rope that I had bound around my waist. I dropped it into the pitfall. Skylar grabbed the rope and tugged three times to show that he had it. I fastened the rope to a nearby tree and jerked on the rope to make sure it was secure. After a while, Skylar pulled himself out of the pit. I was sitting beside the tree the rope was affixed to as he climbed back to the surface.

"Thanks," he said and dropped down beside me, "I don't think I would have been able to get out of there by myself."

"Yeah, I heard this place was dangerous to explore alone." I replied and leaned on him. His armor was cold and rigid, but I was thankful for his presence. Without his comforting chatter and whistling, the forest was incredibly eerie. Skylar was still breathing heavily and looked exhausted

"Why don't you eat something?" I asked as I rummaged through my backpack.

"I don't have anymore food."

"Me neither." I replied, giving up on searching my backpack.

"Okay, so we're lost, we have no food, and we can't go back to Taverly," Skylar summarized, "we're as good as dead."
