"Anne, what are you doing?" Carol whispered. Anne didn't answer. She seemed to be looking at something. Carol couldn't see what it was from her position however.
"Anne, seriously-."
She was cut off when Anne suddenly shushed her.
And, that was when, Carol heard the sound of an Accordion and someone humming. Relief filled her body at once. "Thank goodness," she murmured to herself. She was so cold she was shivering. Her leg was so swollen she could hardly believe it. And, to make the situation worse than it already was. She was hungry.
She was pretty sure she was sick as well (she had thrown up earlier). But, she might have already had the flu. Before, she got sent to this strange world.
Carol watched Anne slowly stand up from their hiding place. (They were hiding behind a bush.) Her hope of having the stranger save them was evaporated. The second the person saw Anne. He screamed. And, it was loud.
The person must've run off because Anne turned around. Carol raised an eyebrow. "Seriously?!"
Anne just rubbed her arm nervously. "Sorry."
Carol was furious. This was the last straw for her. First, Anne had stolen that music box. All because her 'friends' had convinced her to. She had done her best to convince Anne not to. Heck! She had even tried to stop her. But, Anne had still taken it. Then, when she had opened it. It had sent them to this strange place. Anne had woken up in a pile of mud. Carol hadn't been so lucky. She still remembered the feeling of fa-. No, don't go there.
She supposed she should be relieved. That, she and Anne were together at least. But, she wasn't.
"Carol? Are you okay?"
She hadn't realized it before. But, now she did. Carol could feel the tears sliding down her face. When had she started crying?
Anne began to approach her slowly.
"No!" She screeched. "Anne, I've had it with you, just leave me alone!" She stood up. Which, had been a bad move. She felt a jolt of pain when she pressed her left leg down. And, she crumpled to the ground. Anne was by her side instantly.
"It'll be okay Carol, I started this mess and I promise that I'll get us outta here."
