Musa's POV
I walked up to Layla.
"Hey Layla, how much longer do you think we will be walking for?" I asked her. Layla stopped and looked at her watch.
"Hmm, well maybe we should turn back. I don't see another house for miles around."
"Finally!" commented Riven.
"Excuse me, no one asked you!" I snapped back. No one speaks to my mate like that.
"And so what if she didn't." Oh he had nerves. I took a step closer to him.
"Listen here. Just because we are stranded in the middle of nowhere and just because we're in a group together, DOES NOT MEAN I HAVE TO LIKE YOU!" I screamed the last part. My voice echoed through the woods nearby.
I looked at him. At first he was a bit taken back by my sudden outburst but then a smirk appeared on his face.
"Jeez, no need to get your knickers in a twist!" I growled. I was about to do something when Layla put her hand on my shoulder.
"He's just winding you up," she whispered in my ear. I calmed down. She was right. I budged right past him and started walking back to the mini-bus. I could hear him saying something but I refused to get all hyped up about it.
He wasn't worth it
Flora's POV
I couldn't believe it.
"Oh my god, she's right!" exclaimed Bloom. I could see everyone trying not to panic so I tried to do so myself.
"You guys are kidding," Timmy said trying to sound confident. "Scarecrows don't move all by themselves!"
"I'm sorry girls, I'm going to have to agree with Timmy on this one," said Tecna.
I couldn't believe it.
"You mean that even though you saw that scarecrow there, and now you see that it's gone but you don't believe me?"
The three of them nodded. I turned to Bloom.
"Don't worry Flora, I believe you," Bloom reassured me.
I turned to talk to Tecna but stopped. I stared out into the distance. Tecna noticed and turned to. We both stood there.
"Um, guys. What's wrong?" Bloom asked.
"Bloom don't you see?" I asked dumfounded. I pointed out to the field opposite the one I was first saw the scarecrow. Bloom looked and then gasped.
"Oh my god! It's the scarecrow!"
Musa's POV
Layla had tried to talk to me but I was in no mood for it. I kept on walking.
I had to admit, the cool air was actually quite nice. I always was more of a fan of winter than summer. The air seemed to have calmed me down a bit but I still didn't want to talk to anyone.
Luckily Riven actually had the sense to leave me alone. I guess he really does have a little intelligence in him. But it was just a tad.
I thought back to the days before the accident.
Flashback
It was just a normal day. I was coming home from school. I was looking forward to seeing my mum and then having my cookies that she always had out for me. It was kind of like a little treat before I started on my homework. I walked through the door and called out to my mum that I was home.
No one answered. I went upstairs and dropped my bag off. I went into every room upstairs but came out unsuccessful. I frowned. I decided to go try downstairs.
I shouted mum again and again while going into every room downstairs. I finally made my way into the kitchen. I looked around. Nothing seemed out of place. Well that was until I noticed that the cookies weren't there.
I panicked. I burst into tears. I ran to the phone and phoned my dad.
Well to cut a long story short, it turned out my mum had been in a car crash. She died later on in hospital. To say that I took it harshly would have been an understatement.
I never touched a packet of cookies again. Never have and probably never will. I think that is why I find it hard to be close to someone - even Layla.
I looked up realised that I was back at the bus.
Flora's POV
I started to panic!
"Ok, I'm going!" I said as I started to sprint back towards the bus. I couldn't believe this was happening!
I couldn't tell them why I hated scarecrows because they would just laugh at me! Especially the boys, but then again I didn't want to hang around there for any longer.
I heard Bloom and Tecna scream my name but I didn't answer. I just wanted to be as far away from that scarecrow as I could!
In fact right now I wanted to be back home. Back home in my warm cosy bed. I felt tears start to form in my eyes. I was terrified. Not even a horror movie made me this scared. But then again, horror movies aren't real!
I heard the others running after me. I think that even they got spooked out by that scarecrow.
I kept on running until I could see the bus and then I began to slow down. I never really liked running but I was forced to take cross country. Thank god I did now!
Musa's POV
I couldn't see anyone inside from my view but then again I was at an awkward angle!
I walked up to the van and stepped in.
"Guys, I'm ba-" I looked up and saw that no one was there. "Guys?"
I quick walked up to the top of the bus, but was to be greeted with nothing. I turned and walked back. I peered outside but saw nothing unusual.
"Musa?" I whipped my head around to see Flora. "Musa, what's wrong?"
"Flora!" I shouted. Was I glad to see her! "Flora I can't believe it!"
"What?" she asked confused. I took a deep breath.
"It's Stella and the others!" I said. "They're gone!"
Well how did you guys enjoy this chapter? This was very quickly done so I'm sorry for any mistakes I might have made.
As always, please review and tell me what you think and if you have any ideas of what you want to happen to them just let me know and I'll try to add them.
