Chapter 12: Black
Matt handed the man another $25 then watched him drive off. He went and shook Tai awake. "Get up man, the tire's fixed."

Tai jumped up and collided heads with Matt. They both grabbed their aching foreheads. "Sorry, Matt."

"Whatever, let's just get going."

Tai got out and ran around to the driver's seat. He started the engine and then speed off on the empty HWY. "What time is it?"

Matt checked his watch, "Almost three."

"WHAT!?! It took him 5 hours to fix the car."

"Yeah, he said that he was busy at the shop." Matt's voice was pissed off.

"This is awful; it'll be at least another hour and a half before we get there."

"That's if anything else doesn't go wrong," Matt's voice was flat and depressed, "knowing our luck it will."

Tai reached over and punched his friend in the shoulder, "Think Positive! We just gotta hope everything's going to be fine."


Tk moaned loudly and shook slightly. He was lying on his back, his body covered in a layer of sweat. Kari kneeled above him, her hand on his forehead. "O'My Gosh! You're burning up!" Tk only let out another groan in reply.

Kari leaned down and undid the bandage around his wounds, in any other situation the sight would have disgusted her, but the forest had made her tough for the moment. His scratches from before had swollen and leaked a black puss. She took of the bandage and wiped some of the puss away. More came out.

Through her fear she still managed to keep her voice calm for Tk, and began talking to him. What she said was random and unimportant; her goal was just to keep him awake. She threw her puss covered rag and took off the remaining of her shirt. She had a routine of dabbing the puss away while muttering.

Tk only got worse. He started sweating profusely and shaking more noticeably. Kari used up the rest of her shirt. She reached down and tore off the end of his khakis. Her cooing wasn't calm anymore, "Tk please don't die on me—Tk I love you—don't leave me—Tkkkkkkkkk!" His eyes remained closed and his breathing erratic. "TK WAKE UP!"

Suddenly, she heard a horn honk, O please let it be help.
