Herald and Aimee
'Herald, you ok? Talk to me,' Aimee had reached the bottom of the mountain to find Herald lying near the rocks with a bloody wound on his head and shoulder.

The wounds needed to be cleaned in case of infection. Aimee looked around, there was a crack in the side of a mountain with fresh water flowing from it. She found some leaves from a lime tree and soaked them in water before placing them on the cuts.

She began shaking his shoulder trying to wake him.

'Ohhhh,' he moaned.

'Herald?' Aimee asked gently.

He opened his eyes slowly.

'You ok?'

'Yeah, I think so,' he said moving his arms and legs. 'Not paralysed, that's a good thing,' he joked.

'Can you sit?' Aimee asked helping him into a sitting position. 'Next step is to stand,' she said smiling.

'What TV show you been watching?' he asked suspiciously.

'Search and Rescue on cable,' she answered and they both cracked up laughing.

Herald put his hand on his head, 'Man that's going to hurt tomorrow.'

'You could do with some band-aids,' Aimee said.

'Try wishing,' it was obvious Herald liked the idea of wishing.

'Ok.' Aimee said unsure of whether it would work, but trying was the only way she'd find out if it worked. 'I wish we ad a first aid kit.' Her necklace glowed and a green box with a white cross on it appeared.

Herald stared at it in amasement, 'Cool!'
In no time at all Aimee had Herald bandaged up.

'Good as new,' she joked.

'Thanks.we should get going,' he said getting up. Unfortunately his kegs didn't co-operate, and he fell back down again.

'Maybe we should rest a while,' Aimee suggested.

'Good idea,' he agreed.
They sat for a while sharing stories of what they got up to at school.

'I flooded the staff room once, it was funny.water was everywhere!' Herald said.

'I phoned in a bomb scare on parent teachers day,' Aimee said topping his prank.

'What happened?'

'I kind of got caught.' Aimee said. 'Got suspended, but ten they expelled me because I did graffiti on the lockers.'

'Oh,' Herald said solemnly, then cracked up laughing. 'We really should get moving, it's getting dark,' he said. 'I think I can stand now.'

'Well enough to laugh, well enough to stand,' Aimee joked.

Herald stood, 'Guess I can,' he answered, but he had to lean on Aimee for some support. 'Where do we go from here?'

'Let's try where my feet take us, yours went straight off the side of a mountain.' Aimee said laughing, but stopped when Herald didn't join in. 'Tell you what, why don't we find a cave somewhere so we can sleep?' she offered.

'Sounds good to me!' he replied.

With Herald resting on Aimee they began their journey. But neither of them knew of the grave danger they were about to face.
