Hello!
I'm here again with a brand new chapter!
But this time I had a helper! You don't have to suffer through my foolish spelling mistakes, because Kssarah helped by correcting this chapter. Thank you Kssarah!J)))
Chapter 3
Ned Malone who was about to demonstrate another incredible acrobatic movement in picking a mango looked up at the sky. He immediately and unhappily noticed a lot of dark clouds. He thought to share this information with Veronica and Challenger, but noticed they were no longer nearby. Hardly had he thought it through when thunder shook the tree and he decided to climb down and search for the missing pair. He managed the descent without breaking his neck, although he hurt his palm. As soon as his feet came in contact with the earth, he felt heavy, warm rain on his back. He started a fast walk and didn't notice that his shoes were not stepping in simple wet earth, but in dangerous quicksand. Unfortunately, when he finally realized this, he was up to his ankles in the dangerous muck. Ned only could do the first thing that came into his mind: shout for help. But today he didn't stand in great favor with the Heavens because the loud continuing thunder easily devoured his voice.

The heavy rain prevented easy movement, not to mention making it difficult to determine the right way to go. With every step the explorers suffered as their boots pressed down in ankle deep mud, and the rain was so intense, they could hardly see their own noses in front of them. For the injured Charlotte it was twice as bad. Although Marguerites diagnosis was right, and Charlie's wound was not life-threatening, she had lost a lot of blood. The only good news was that they didn't have to worry that her wound would alert predators as the rain and wind took away the smell of blood. This didn't comfort Charlie. The world started to blur in front of her eyes, and now her whole weight was on Richard, who had been helping her.
-Where now, John?
-I don't know Marguerite, I can't see anythingin this rain
-John! Look! There! - Richard showed the direction with one hand.
Not so far away a little dark spot could be seen in the mountainside. The hunter didn't waste any more time:
-I'm interested in every solution! Lets take a look at it! - And Roxton started looking for a way to reach what was hopefully shelter.
To their luck, Richard had noticed a good place. A deserted cave big enough for them all, very cold, but at least dry. After Lord Roxton checked the safety of the place, Marguerite immediately started to give orders. She laid out blankets. Next she peeled off her wet coat because it slowed her work down. She then started to unpack her pack.
Charlotte had collapsed at the entrance and Richard had laid her down on a blanket. After this task, he also rid himself of his coat and sat next to her. Without any thought he reached for her head, took off her wet cap, and threw it aside. He then removed her jacket. When finished with that, he reached for her collar and loosened her shirt, than his hand went lower and he started to pull her bloody and wet shirt tails from her trousers...
Ok it's short. But correct...
