After the fog has passed, I hesitantly slide down the smooth trunk of the tree.
I slowly make my way back to where we had last placed ourselves for thought.
Johanna was there and blight was just walking out of the jungle to the left near where I had run opposite of
"Where's wiress?!" i didn't even try to hide the worry that was over taking my mind.
"Behind you" said a small voice in just above a whisper.
I turn around and see wiress sitting on a branch over where I had just walked through. She jumps down and hugs my middle.
"Are you ok beetee?"
Yea I'm fine Hun" I say kissing her little cheek.
Well that's sweet but victory is even sweeter and standing here isn't going to get us there." Johanna tells us, looking a little happy, laying on the ground, in the shade of a tree.
Um… technically we're not standing around. You're laying down" wiress informs.
Johanna lifts her head sending a grimace towards wiress.
She stands pulls the switchblade out of her pocket and grabs wires by the shoulder and pulls her over to a tree and slams wiress's back into it holding her there.
"Listen three" she puts her face so that she and wires are sharing the same air "I don't care if r the jabberjay or the peacock. You correct me one more time" she flips open the blade "it'll be your biggest regret"
Wiress stands up straight and tall shaking off Johanna's hand
"Say what makes you feel stronger Johanna, but know it makes no difference in IQ"
Johanna drove the blade to the hilt into the area of tree above wiress shoulder. She didn't even flinch. Just stood looking straight into Johanna's cold eyes
"like u said before" she held herself like a pro wrestler "we won't get anything done standing around" she slid under Johanna's out-stretched arms and kept walking , presumably the beach.
Johanna looked after her, cheeks filled with color.
"you're so dead three" she mumbles under her breath following wiress.
