Chapter 2

"Make a soup!"

"Excuse me!"

"Make a soup I said!"

The red headed woman seemed confused. She had just woken up, and a bossy little girl was standing in front of her "You want me to make a soup...for you?"

The girl nodded "Yes" and waked forward.

Salene stretched her back, and looked at the young blonde haired girl. She seemed about 12, or maybe 13. She held her hands on her hips, and as Salene's eyes roamed her body, she saw a tooth necklace hanging from her neck. She gulped, but understood that these teeth were in fact animal teeth. "Um...so...I'm gonna need ingredients and utensils" she said whiles standing up.

The girl frowned, "Yes I'll take you to them" She walked forward and pulled out a key from her short skirt pocket, and began to unlock Salene from her chains. "Any funny business, and I'll kill you"

Salene didn't know what to say, she didn't know what this girl was capable off.

"You got that?" She said sternly, giving the red headed woman a good shove, to get her out of the room.

The girl was strong for her age, so Salene nodded, and followed her out of the wooden room.

Outside, the sun was shining. It was a beautiful bright morning. Salene squinted her eyes as she gazed up towards the sun, then blinked and looked down. She had to do a double take as she saw, how far down the ground actually was, and as she looked up, she scanned her eyes around her.

Tree houses, everything was wooden and so green. Bridges made out of wood and bamboo, were connecting the small huts, them spiraling up and down and around the surrounding trees. It was beautiful and impressive. It was nothing like the Eco camp. She stood still in awe, remembering the night the was captured a few days ago, it was in the middle of the night, and she had no idea this is where she had been all that time.

****Flash back****

She heard Brady screaming as she was grabbed by a strange looking boy. It was dark, his eyes glowed with intensity, his dark naked skin glinted in the moonlight. And then she was gone. They disappeared into the pitch black. Her arms reached out.

There was screams. There were cries. The sound of beating drums could be heard from inside the forest.

There was chanting, and the red glow of fire sticks waved everywhere. Smoke filled the air, which stung her eyes.

And then everything fazed out as a sharp pain struck her head.

****End of flash back****

She was poked in the back, which brought her back to reality.

"Get moving!" the girl shouted.

Salene continued to walk, and came to the beginning of a bridge, she hesitated.

The blonde huffed, "Get going!" and poked her again.

She began to carefully walk along, holding on to the rope on the side. It was unsteady so she walked carefully. She came to end of the bridge and stepped onto a platform, there 3 small huts gathered around it, and she tried to peer in. Trying to get a glimpse of one of her friends.

Two unfamiliar faces walked out, both men. They looked at her and made her feel uneasy. Then started to talk among them.

"There's too many of them. They make me feel strange" One of them said, glancing over at the unfamiliar red headed woman.

"I agree" replied the other "I think Flight mention something about another sacrifice tonight"

"Yes, I feel we need too. All these invaders, will make the Fire God uneasy, and I don't want to be punished"

Salene had overheard there conversation, and gulped. Fear rose inside her. These people were crazy!

Slade stood looking smug at the huge stash of bananas they had collected, and turned to he others behind him all sat around on the beach. He walked over to join them.

Trudy's eyes were red were she had been crying, and her skin was bare and dry. He gave her a concerned look, and placed his hand on her shoulder.

Lex held a stick in his hand, and drew a circle in the sand next to him. "This is the island. We are here"

"This is stupid" cried May, huffing and looking away at Slade for a better idea.

Jack butted in "We don't even know how big the island is! These people could be anywhere!"

"Maybe we should scout the island?" Asked Slade, taking in turns looking at everyone "We can find out how big this island is, find out where this "tribe" is located, and maybe find somewhere for us to stay. We cant stay on his beach for much longer, they know where we are, and might come back for us!"

Ellie tightened her grip on her boyfriends arm.

"but...this could take ages!" cried Trudy standing up. "Who knows what they might do to Brady!"

"If we rush into Trudy, we might all get hurt, Brady might get hurt" replied Slade, getting up to face the purple haired woman. " We know your upset, we're all upset, we've lost some of our friends" he turned to face the other Mallrats. "We need to tread carefully, find out there weaknesses, where the camp is. We need to know how many we are up against"

A hopeful small smile grew on her lips, "i guess your right"

"We've defeated the Chosen, and the Technos!" yelled Lex, stabbing his stick into the sand "we can take down these fuckers!"

She lifted up the half of coconut shell to her lips and spilled the liquid into her mouth. She instantly chocked and spat it out down her top.

Ebony laughed "Not what you expected!"

Amber wiped her hand over her mouth "No, it tastes like dirty water. Even worse than before"

Ebony chuckled.

The blonde woman looked down at the baby in her arms who's face was shoved up her top.

"At least your getting the good stuff" she told him.

"What do you think is going to happen to us?"

"I'm not sure" replied Amber

Ebony looked around the small hut, "We have to get out of here! I do not accept being treated like this! And when I do, they are going to pay!" she clenched her fists hard.
