Chapter three: To each his own

Big Time Rush had just successfully completed one of their demon slaying jobs and were resting as the village threw a celebration.

"Come on guys, this celebration is for you guys. Now that the boulder demon has been slain, our village can now beat peace," one of the village people spoke.

Kendall just shook his head and the villager left. It wasn't that they didn't want to have fun, it was just the thought of the girls that were fogging up their minds. How could they, a group of weak, sensitive, and scrawny damsels, easily pin them down without even breaking a sweat?

It wasn't just bugging Kendall. All of the guys were still thinking about the day they came face to face with the femme fatales. Carlos' pride was hurt because he was the strongest of the group and was easily brought to the ground by a girl half his size. James still had the debate that they only won because they had 'handicaps' on their team; a demon, warlock, and vampire. Logan, however, was still in awe. This was the first time he'd ever seen such a diverse team work together.

Logan broke out of his thoughts when the villagers welcomed them to eat with them at the feast table. He nodded and flashed a smile as he got up, "Well I don't know about you guys but I'm star-"

"Last one there kisses demon butt!" Yelled out Carlos as he ran towards the table; James and Kendall following behind him.

Logan sighed as he followed his friends.

Big Time Rush departed from the village after the feast. They would've stayed longer but demons aren't going to be coming to them to get slain, so they had to continue on their journey.

They walked for a few hours when they suddenly came across a huge forest. Kendall smiled and turned to Logan, "So which way should we go Logan?"

Logan pulled out the map he had in his bag and started scanning it.

Carlos pouted, "I say we follow the river until we're out of the forest."

He flinched when James smacked him behind the head, "No stupid, we have to go around the forest, forget going in there." James spoke as he pointed a route on the map with his fingers. He suddenly felt his ear being tugged and realized it was Carlos. He smacked his hand away, "Stop it Carlos!"

"You started it! Don't like getting your ears pulled? Then don't smack me next time!"

The two shut up when Kendall shushed them. The blonde sighed in relief and turned his attention to the boy with the map, "So which is the best route?"

Logan folded the map and placed it back in his bag before shrugging, "I don't really know Kendall,"

"Damn it,"

"Hey," James began as everyone turned to face him. "What if we each go on our own route through the forest, and whoever makes it to the end last has to cook dinner for a week straight, with no complaints."

Carlos quickly agreed with James, "Yeah that sounds fun, like a bet!"

Kendall shook his head. He believed splitting up was a really horrible idea, who knows what could be living in the forest.

Logan smiled, "It would be nice for someone else to do the cooking for a change,"

Kendall dropped his head down in defeat, with Big Time Rush it was majority rule and it was three to one so Kendall was out voted. He smiled at his teammates, "Fine, we'll do it." All the boys jumped up in excitement when the blonde spoke, "But we're going to need rules,"

_[ Five Minutes Later ]_

"Alright so we all agree that; if in danger you throw one of Logan's potions in the air that will notify the rest of us so we can come aid you, once you reach the end of the forest you must write your initial on a tree so that the rest of us know who got there first, and no one is to go picking fights with demons that may appear too much for one to handle."

The boys nodded and split up as they took their own route into the forest.

James was dashing through the bushes the trees that surrounded the forest. There was no way he was going to be the one who cooks; you know how much four grown up boys eat? It wasn't a little one course meal that was for sure.

Carlos followed the river downstream. As he went deeper into the forest, the darker and scarier it started to look. He wasn't worried though, he was pretty sure he could handle any demon if they tried to mess with him. Carlos smiled as he continued down the river.

Kendall decided to play it safe and go through the tree tops. He was jumping from one tree branch to the next, thank god he was well balanced and could jump far. Otherwise he'd probably have to walk and risk running into a demon.

Logan found himself running through a trail he came across. He was wary about following it at first, because something had to have made this trail and Logan didn't want to run into whatever made it. But this trail had to lead somewhere, and if he was lucky, it would lead to the end of the forest.
