It was early May. The flowers were mid bloom and Mt. Ebott looked beautiful. Every artist or aspiring artist wanted to draw the vas amounts of flowers that filled the mountain that time of year. The weather was warm, warm enough to wear shorts and tee.
Izzy walked along the dirt path with her best friend Emily. The two were part of the school's art club and an elaborate drawing of Mt. Ebott's flora would be a beautiful edition to the gallery. Izzy wasn't as good a drawler as Emily, but she was at least over average. People didn't like Emily. She was quiet most of the time, but when she talked, she was very socially awkward. She kept her dark hair in from of her face most of the time and hardly spoke, until she met Izzy. Emily didn't swear, didn't speak with any confidence. She most certainly couldn't make conversation. Izzy was the opposite. She brought Emily out of her shell. Now, she swears like she just got out of prison. She's still socially awkward but isn't afraid to tell someone they're wrong.
The pair carried on a conversation about Emily's favourite anime, Ruby. Although Izzy didn't know much about it, it was cute to see Emily so jazzed over the characters. Emily was short and chubby. Her hair was brown and to her shoulders. Izzy was slightly taller, only by a few inches, and had medium length blonde hair. She was average sized.
They finally reached the bottomless pit in the mountain. Ever since the last child went missing in the mountain, people don't like to come to the hole. They blame the hole of the "monsters" for the disappearances. Izzy was adventurous. She certainly wasn't afraid of folk tales about the hole, and neither was Emily. She and Emily have bee visiting it since Izzy moved here two years ago, right after the child went missing.
They picked they're usual spots beside the hole. The sun beamed through the trees and filled them with warmth. Izzy sighed with relief as she sat across from Emily.
"We should draw the hole this time." Emily said as she looked at it thoughtfully.
Izzy looked at the gaping hole. There were little vines with pink flowers hanging from sides. The sun left beautiful rays over the hole. "That's a great idea MC Hammer."
"Stop." Emily looked annoyed to hear that nickname.
"Haha it's still funny."
"No it's not. Just because my initials are MC does not mean you can call me that." Emily crossed her arms and scowled at her shoes.
"Yeahhh but you love me so I get a pass." Izzy smiled at her friend.
"I'd sell you to Satan for a corn ship."
"You Meme-er!" Izzy laughed and pointed at Emily.
"Much sly."
"Shut up!"
The two laughed in unison.
"Oh look who it is, the two lesbians!"
The laughter ended when three girls pushed through the bushes. Sarah was standing in front of the other two carrying a back pack. They were all carrying back packs.
Izzy stood up defectively. "Don't you twats know it's to dangerous to camp out here? I hear the bear has taken a liking to rich prissy white girls."
Sarah scoffed. "Did you girls hear someone? Hmm, must be my ears."
"Maybe you need some fucking hearing aids you deff bitch." Izzy stood firmly in front of Emily.
Sarah had been bullying Emily since before Izzy moved there. Emily never stuck up for herself, so it was Izzy's job. Even if the dumb bitch wouldn't back off.
Whatcha drawing there? More kiddy porn?" Sarah laughed and the other girls did to. She turned to them as she passed Izzy. "Hold her back."
With that, the other two girls held Izzy's flying fists.
Sarah laughed again and ripped the drawing tablet from Emily and threw it in the hole. Emily tried to reach in to catch the book. She nearly fell in, to make it worse, she was crying and Izzy couldn't help.
"Here why don't you join it?" Sarah kicked Emily's butt sending her over the edge.
"EMILY!" Izzy screamed as she tried to get free.
Emily hung by one hand. Sarah snapped her fingers and the girls left Izzy go. She ran to Emily.
"Give me your hand!" Izzy extended her arm so far she thought it'd pop out of her socket. Emily grabbed her hand just as she let go of the edge.
"See ya later, lesbians!" Sarah pushed Izzy into the hole, sending both girls barreling for the bottom.
Emily screamed as they descending and the laughter of the girls echoed in Izzy's ears as they seemed to fall for an eternity.
