[Days Later- Forest]
"Wow... this place never ceases to amaze me, the forest is so beautiful. All these trees, all these birds, this beautiful environment!" Kenny exclaimed as he walked on, Tyson laughed unbelievably behind him and followed him.
"If you're this interested in it, why don't you just marry it?"
Kamila smiled and walked on, Diego by her side. "This forest is old, but it's very peaceful as well. Most likely the last natural place in this town, since everything else had been cut down to build houses and other things. There're also many wild animals, like Diego." She said and patted Diego'a head.
"Aren't you afraid then?" Jana asked and looked at her.
"Of what?" Kamila asked, turning to look at her.
"You know... beasts... wild animals, things like that." Jana said with a shiver, she then glanced at Diego, whom was watching her with his green eyes as well. She then quickly looked away, scared.
"If you don't go bothering them, they won't come and bother you." Kamila said and smiled, everyone's so scared of Diego, except for Ray and Kai that is.
Suddenly, Diego groweled, everyone looked towards him alerted, and surprised. Ray stopped besides him and looked around, "something wrong?"
Diego just snared, baring his teeth, Kamila looked around them carefully. "Something's out there." She commented, Jana hung onto her waist immediately.
Soon, they heard another growl, much more louder. They turned around and there it is, a huge black bear is walking towards them, Jana's eyes filled with tears immediately as she stumbled back and fell onto the ground.
"Everyone be quiet!" Kamila warned and looked at the bear that is coming towards them slowly, she glanced down at Diego, whom is looking at the bear carefully as well.
The Blade Breakers moved back slowly, Kenny cluntched onto Dizzi frightened, Kamila just stood her ground, but her hand had let go of Diego's head. Jana sat on the ground with tears running down her face, the bear moved closer and closer towards them. Its eyes swiped across the bunch of people, and stopped on a weeping Jana. Its eyes are set, the bear walked towards Jana, whom just sat there numbly, and when she finally realized that the bear is coming towards her, a piercing scream left her mouth. The bear raised its claw...
"Jana!" Everyone shouted, Kamila slipped a hand into her boots.
"Diego!"
The panther growled and jumped up, with one shove, he shoved Jana out of the bear's way, into the woods, and swiftly, he bit down onto the bear's leg hard. The bear cried out in pain and took a swipe at Diego, whom just jumped out of the way.
Tyson yelped and turned around to run, but bumped into Ray, just like that, they rolled down some hill and disappeared.
"Ray! Tyson!" Max and Kenny wanted to run after them, but stumbled into another part of the forest by mistake.
The bear can't seem to get a hold of Diego, it then shifted its gaze onto Kai, whom has his beyblade in hand. Kamila jumped up and pulled out the knife from her boots, she landed on the bear softly and stabbed the knife into the back of its back, its piercing scream rang out beside Kamila's ears.
The bear then went to swipe for Kai again, Kamila noticed its action and stood up on the bear.
"Let it rip!" With that, Dranzer was launched, the bear's claw came down as well. Kamila jumped down and blocked the claw, but thankfully, the claw just tear through her cloth and left a mark on her back, nothing fatal.
"Let's go!" Kamila yelled as she climbed up and pulled on Kai's arms, Dranzer returned to Kai, and he turned to follow Kamila. Diego ran towards Jana and dragged her away deeper into the woods.
[Kai and Kamila]
They rolled into the bushes and just laid there, breathing softly, Kamila coughed lightly and winced in pain. Kai put his Dranzer away and looked over at Kamila, why would she save him? They've only known each other for a few days, and yet she's willing to risk everything for him.
"Yo, are you all right?" He asked as he climbed up and kneeled down beside Kamila.
She blinked and then pushed herself up, supporting herself on her arms. She took in deep breaths and tried to calm herself down, she then looked over at Kai, whom is watching her, she gave him a smile.
"Don't worry about it, I'll be fine." She said and then slowly stood up, wincing a bit. Kai followed her movement and stood up as well, they looked around the place.
"What is this place?"
"It's near the middle of the forest, where the light is pretty dim, and it's hard to see anything around here. There're not only black bears, but there are other wild animals as well." She commented, as she looked around the place. "We should go look for the others right now, especially Jana, she doesn't understand Diego, something might go wrong with them."
"What? He's going to eat her?" Kai asked as he followed her deeper into the forest, she looked at him and laughed.
"Not that, Jana's probably scared to death right now. What she needs is someone to comfort her, her friends, her family, her fiance," she paused and glanced at Kai, he just frowned slightly. "Not some wild animal that can tear a human into little pieces."
"How do you suggest we find them?" Kai asked and crossed his arms over his chest, looking around. Everything looks the same to him, there's pratically no way of identifying where they have been or where they're going next.
Kamila picked up a rock and walked over to a tree on her right hand side, she carved down the name 'Kai and Kamila', then she put the rock on the tree at a visible spot, and stepped back to Kai.
"That'll be our marking, if we see that again, then that means we're going in circles." Kai looked up at it, smart. "Come on, let's go." She said and walked on.
Kai looked up at the marking and the stone again, then looked at her back and followed her deeper into the darkness.
[Ray and Tyson]
"Tyson, are you okay?" Ray asked as he pushed himself up from the dirt, and looked over at Tyson, whom is also just getting up.
"Yeah... I think I broke a few bones, but other than that, I'm fine." Tyson said with a smile and slowly stood up, Ray smiled back and stood up as well. The two of them tilted their heads and surveryed around them, trees everywhere, they can't see anything except for the darkening sky.
"Ray, what are we going to do? Where are the others?" Tyson asked worriedly as he walked closer to Ray.
"We'll have to wait until the night, and I'll try to track down Polaris." Ray said calmly and looked up at the sky again.
"Polaris? Sounds cool, something I can eat?" Tyson asked and looked up at the sky as well.
Ray's eyes grew large, he turned around to look at Tyson, but he's just focusing on the sky. Ray then rolled his eyes and sighed, this is going to be a long night.
[Max and Kenny]
"Tyson! Ray!"
"Kamila! Kai!"
"Jana! Kai! Tyson!"
They then sighed and shook their heads facing each other, Kenny sighed and sat down on a rock.
"It's no use, we'll never find them here!"
Max looked at him worriedly, this place is like a maze, how are they ever going to get out? He looked down again and then noticed the paw prints on the ground, he bent down quickly and waved Kenny over.
"Chief, I might have found something!" He said excitedly.
"What?" Kenny bent down and looked at it as well. "It's just paw prints, what's the use of that?" He asked and then looked up again.
"These paw prints look fresh, and they look like bear paw prints... it must be the bear that attacked us back then. If we follow these prints, it'll probably lead us back to where the bear attacked us, then we won't have any problems finding our way back from there then!"
Max said excitedly and jumped up, Kenny looked at him and then looked down at the paw prints again, another sigh heaved from his mouth. "Are you sure?"
"Come on Chief, live dangerously! We'll find a way out of here, I'm sure of that!" With that, Max looked down at the paw prints again and then started to walk in the direction that they're leading to. Kenny groaned and followed after him.
[Jana and Diego]
Jana whimpered as she touched her leg, where it's bleeding just a bit due to the shove by Diego. She then looked around the whole place, she sees nothing by trees and mud. With a groan, she pushed herself up and walked a few steps towards one direction, then back and then a few steps towards another direction.
'It's useless! I'm never going to get out of here alive!' Jana thought frustrated as she plopped down onto a cleaner piece of wood.
Suddenly, a rustling sound rang out, Jana's eyes widened immediately as she watched on. The bushes parted and Diego walked out, Jana sighed in relief, then tensed up again, she's dealing with a panther here.
Diego just looked at her, and then walked over to her, Jana sat on the piece of wood rigid and waited for his next action. Diego signaled for her to stand up, she blinked and slowly stood up, careful not to get too close to him. Diego then turned and walked towards one direction, without a choice, Jana just took in a deep breath and followed him.
[Kai and Kamila]
"We're lost!" Kai commented coldly as the night sky came over, and the forest became pitch black.
"No we're not, I know where I am going." Kamila said and then sat down, Kai stopped and looked down at her curiously.
"This forest is pitch black as you can see, we have to wait until the morning before we can continue on again." She watched as Kai sat down beside her, but with a space between them. She looked at the space and then looked at him again.
"What? Are you afraid of me?" She asked funnily and he looked back at her as well, she looked down at the gap between them, he didn't say anything.
With a small smile, Kamila slid over and closed the gap between them, Kai just looked at her, staying silent. Kamila reached up a hand and traced his jaw bone. "I'm actually quite happy to spend a night alone with you, after all... you're not bad at all. In fact, I think we might have some fun together." She said slowly, and her thumb brushed over his lower lip.
He was about to say something, but Kamila raised up her head, his eyes made contact with her lavender eyes, he's once again drawn to them. Confused.
"Seriously Kai... if you leave your fiancee and come with me... I'll make you so much more happier." She said softly, barely above a whisper.
Kai's eyes widened in shock, Kamila saw it and just laughed, she took her hand off his face and ran a hand through her hair. "Kai, don't take that seriously, I was just joking! Be with Jana, she likes you a lot, she'll be good to you. And in return, you have to good to her as well."
She then yawned and stretched, looking around, one the other side, Kai still looks dazed from what she said. "Let's just go to sleep, find a comfortable place, but make sure that we don't split up, or else we'll have trouble finding each other tomorrow. Night." She said and then leaned back onto a huge tree trunk, her eyes shut and she just went to sleep like that.
Kai's confused eyes took in her form, just what kind of a person is she.....
