Hello people who own computers! It's pieface98 coming at you with chapter four! Are you happy? Good. Lets go!

Where was she? Fabian searched underneath the water, it stinging his eyes as he swam. He finally caught slight of her, sinking fast due to her backpack. He swam over to her as fast as he could and lifted her to the surface. She clung to him for dear life, breathing heavily.

"My backpack was too-too heavy." She muttered.

"I know," Fabian said, "It's okay."

Fabian sat Nina on the edge of the water as she caught her breath.

"Nina!" Mick shouted, crouching beside her, "You're alive! Fabian,"

Fabian looked up at Mick's face, "Thank you. You saved my sisters life."

"It was nothing." Fabian sighed modestly, "The only thing that matters is that she's safe right?"

"I guess." Mick smiled.

"That was, like, so cool!" Eddie shouted.

"Yeah, it really was." Patricia agreed, although she'd agree to anything Eddie said.

Patricia and Eddie looked up at the same time and met the other's gaze. They just stared. Eddie loved the sparkling green color of Patricia's eyes. It was like, if the whole world was dark her eyes would give off all the light we needed. Patricia thought that Eddie's light brown eyes turned her own world upside down. The devious look he sometimes got in them. The way they sparkle when he smiled.

Eddie wasn't the type to fall in love. He had many girlfriends, but none of them meant anything to him. Some meant so little, he wouldn't care if they got hit by a bus. Well, maybe he would a little but some were just really slutty. But there was something different about Patricia. She was a challenge and he could tell she wasn't the type to admit her feelings. But, she was his challenge. He had to make he admit her feelings. He had to know if she liked him back so he could make a move.

Patricia didn't understand what she was feeling at all. She knew what love felt like, or at least she though she did, and it did nothing but break her heart. She had dated Jerome in high school and he cheated on her. After while they became friends again, but it broke her heart. She thought she was in love with him! But, Patricia felt different around Eddie. She felt like she knew him, even if she didn't know him at all.

"Guys," Fabian said, "There's a tunnel just that way! Follow it!"

They ran toward the tunnel and escaped into a world. A world within a world.

"The Center of the Earth," Fabian presented.

"No way." Alfie muttered.

"Wow." Eddie shouted, running into it, "WAHOO! I LOVE IT!"

Nina smiled, this was it. This was her adventure. Not only was it her adventure, it was her own little escape from reality. She ran after Eddie and smiled at him. She couldn't stop, smiling that is.

"It's amazing Nines," Eddie said, beaming as well and wrapping his arms around her in a hug.

"I know," she smiled.

Fabian looked toward them, feeling jealous. He'd known her longer, no doubt she's in love with him.

"Do you think they ever dated?" Patricia asked, looking at the same two people.

"God, I hope not." Fabian muttered.

Mick thought that they world was great. What's better than your own world? No rules to follow, nobody yelling at you for speeding or whatever. Sure they'd have to catch their own food and they couldn't stay forever, but it was definitely a great escape.

"Ambs!" Mick yelled, picking up his girlfriend and spinning her around, "It's amazing isn't it?"

"Yeah," she smiled.

"Alfie!" Fabian yelled after the boy, "I've been thinking, about the dangers of this place. I think because of the time of year the temperatures hear are going to be boiling during the day then ice cold at night. Then there's still the man eating plants and everything else to worry about."

"We won't survive a week," Alfie agreed.

"We need a plan," Fabian said, "Guys! Everyone over here!"

Everyone came toward Fabian who began immediately, "This isn't paradise. It's hell. The temperatures here will increase during the day and rapidly drop at night. There are dangerous animals and man eating plants. Everything small in our world is relatively large. We need a plan."

They all exchanged looks. They were all wrong about their new found world. Fabian was right, it wasn't paradise, it wasn't an escape, it was hell.

They didn't know it yet, but they'd all have their moment. All ten of them. The moment when they were positive they were gonna die.

Yeah, its short. I know. But I didn't want to get too far into the world until next chappy!
