Male Bonding Gone Wrong
Chapter 7-From Here to Eternity
Something was wrong and Tyler could feel it. He wanted to get up and go looking for his friends but the nagging, logical little voice told him to stay put because if he got lost chances are Jamie and Hank would come looking for him and then that would create a whole new problem. He sighed and shivered as the rain continued to splash down on him. He heard the low rumble of thunder and lay his head back on a rock to wait.
*******************************************************
Hank and Jamie glanced at each other the same horror mirrored in the others eyes. The bear stopped and stood on its hind legs growling lowly.
"Dear God in heaven." Hank breathed. He could feel Jamie's hand shaking against his arm. Or maybe his arm was shaking under his hand. The rain pelted down in sheets, and water began to reduce their visibility. A thunderous clap of thunder startled the bear and it reared back a bit.
"Ya know..." Jamie's voice was soft and rough. "For as big as bears are....they're rather skittish creatures." As if his words had somehow caused a reaction, a bolt of lighting lit up the sky followed by an even louder crash of thunder. Hank felt some of his terror slowly drain away as the bear became more skitterish and backed up a ways. The thunder was so loud and so close it seemed to shake the very ground they stood upon. To Hank's astonishment, the bear fled.
"That seems a little to convent." Hank murmured.
"Don't knock it, just go with it!" Jamie muttered back at him.
"Can you walk?" Hank asked.
"I'm going to." Jamie replied gritting his teeth. Hank helped him and the two slowly began their way back to Tyler and camp.
**********************************************************
Tyler sat nervously, the thunder seemed to get closer and the lightening would periodically light up the sky. The rain splashed down on him and he shivered. Dragging himself to his feet, he hobbled over to a rock that would provide some shelter.
"Worst trip ever." Tyler muttered. Lightening lit up the sky again and he blinked some water out of his eyes. He could have sworn he saw something in the woods. In that moment every camp horror story he had ever heard flashed through his mind. He laughed weakly at his paranoia, and squinted in the darkness, just to reassure himself that nothing was there. The harder he looked, the less sure he was.
***********************************************************
If Jamie hadn't been having trouble earlier, he defiantly was now. Stumbling over every rock and root, he was more less being dragged along by Hank, who was determined to get back to camp. With a shallow gasp, Jamie fell to his knee's, pulling Hank down with him. Hank halted in his rush and knelt down next to his friend.
"You okay?" Jamie gritted his teeth and tried to push himself back to his feet.
"Yes."
"Maybe we should stay here." Hank said, realizing his militant marching was probably wearing Jamie down.
"No, we should get back to camp." Jamie argued managing to stand. "If we don't Tyler will probably come looking for us." Hank had to admit he had a point. Wrapping his arm around Jamie's waist, he couldn't help but cringe as he felt wetness rub off on his arm.
"Let me check you out when we get back." Hank demanded. He didn't care whether Jamie agreed to or not. Hank began to walk at a slower speed than he had been going. Lightening lit up the sky and They could see in front of them clearly for a moment.
"Come on." Jamie said pulling against Hank's restraining hand. Reluctantly, and against his better judgment, Hank allowed Jamie to keep walking towards camp, though Hank knew Jamie might pass out before they even reached camp.
**********************************************************
Tyler was scared. He was positive now that something or someone was standing in the thicket of trees several feet in front of him. He shuddered and peered through the rain. "Come on Connell, your being ridiculous." He chided himself. "There are no murders in the woods, those are only in camp stories." A traitorous little voice in the back of his head kept telling him that those stories had to come from somewhere. A crack from behind him made him twist around. Seeing nothing he felt his heart begin to pound against his chest. A heavy hand fell on his shoulder and he screamed......
Who's got Tyler? Is it Hank or Jamie or are they still to far away? Could it be Hunter somehow finding them....or maybe Tyler's not imagining things.
