HI~! I'm not dead, I just have been busy writing other things for school. I had to major essays… one is about something that is very personal, and the other is American history… lol both are very long… but anyways, I'm back, and my writing style has changed for the goodness of life XD
Mari sat there, with daisy, and waited, and waited and waited. It was about midnight when she heard the crack of lightning, and saw a bright orange light not far off from where she was. It was a wild fire, and she was lost in the woods, where no one could hear her scream, and cry. The fire spread quickly, like butter on hot toast, and it was getting hotter and smokier in the woods by every second.
Lukas smelled the smoke, and he looked out his bedroom window in absolute horror. The whole forest was on fire and Mari was nowhere to be seen. "MOR!" he screamed, and ran out of his room, breaking the lock on accident, then bolted down the stairs, "mor! The woods! They are on fire!"
"I know sweet heart, at least everyo-"
"no! Mari isn't here! I think she went into the woods before the storm!" mathilde almost passed out from that fact, and screamed. Mathilde rounded everyone (Sweden and Lukas) up, and she ran out of the cottage, and sped forwards to the forest. "You two stay here, I need to find Mari." She left them by the edge of the forest, near the creek and pond that bordered the forest. Mathilde ran, ran as fast as she could, and tried to listen for a child screams. She raspyily called out, "MARI?! MARI?! MARI! WHERE ARE YOU?!"
Mari had lost conciseness from all the smoke, and was lying limply next to daisy, whom was still alert enough to hear Mathilde calling Mari's name. She barked, and barked until mathilde ran to where the duo where, "Mari! Oh my precious baby… my baby…" she cried out, and picked up the limp girl, and the puppy also, and ran out of the burning forest. Just outside the forest, Lukas and Berwald had heard mathilde scream, and her cries for Mari, but neither expected Mari to be unconscious, so when they saw the limp, singed girl in their mother's arms, they too nearly passed out. They quickly got home, and got Mari to the point of coughing up smoke from the fire, but she stayed unconscious for a day or two, her lungs and body needing to repair themselves. Lukas blamed himself terribly from what happened, and he refused to leave Mari's bedside until she was better, and he refused food or water, since he didn't want to be selfish in the younger nation's time of need. Every time he looked at her small frame under the blanket in those two or so days, he couldn't help but cry since he thought he lost her forever.
