Lex POV
'Why do they think they can just get ideas any time they want? I'm only 10, for goodness sakes.' I thought to myself.
Regular POV
Lex had a small pack on his back, and was currently walking into the jungle. He was going to a secret cave he found hidden behind some vines one day.
Once he got there, he set the pack down, opened it, and took out a banana. He looked up into the sky, and gasped.

"Lex!" Daley called, again.
"Day." Nathan said, grabbing her arm. She turned to him with tears in her eyes. "He's probably back at camp."
"What if he's not? We have to find him. Lex!" she yelled again.
"Day, come on. Look at the sky." Nathan said.
She did, and gasped. There were rolling black clouds that hung closely to the earth. "Lex! Come on!" she yelled, breaking from Nathan's grip.
"Daley!" he yelled after her. It was apparent she wasn't going to come to him, so he had to go after her. "Daley!" he yelled again, grabbing onto her arm.
She turned to him, trying to wipe the tears from her eyes.
"Hey," he started.
"Daley? Nathan?" they heard someone.
"Lex?" Nathan asked.
They could see the boy hidden behind some vines.
"Lex!" Daley yelled, moving the vines away. Once she made an opening, she went in and hugged him. "Don't ever do that again. You scared me." She whispered in his ear.
"Sorry, Day, but I had to get away for a little while." Lex said, looking down to the ground with shame.
"Guys, as happy as we all are about finding Lex, I think we may want to get back." Nathan said, glancing up at the skies again. The three could hear rumbling in the distance.
"Okay, let's go." Daley said, beginning to jog, while holding onto Lex's hand.

"Does anyone know where they are?" Eric asked.
Everyone looked up in surprise.
"They went to look for Lex." Melissa said.
"Oh, okay." He said, fingering the ring in his pocket, again.
"Nathan!" Melissa called.
Everyone turned to see the three breathing heavily.
"Guys," Lex started, "There's going to be another storm. A big one. We have to get ready, fast."
"Eric, go get water. Melissa, go get fruit. Jackson, try to catch some fish. Taylor, while there's still a bit of sun left, I want you to charge the batteries. Lex, go to the tent. Nathan, come help me." Daley said in some quick breaths. The group scurried off to do their jobs, and Nathan and Daley started to pick up things around the camp.
"I'll boil water when Eric brings the first load back. That okay?" she asked.
"Sure, there he is now." Nathan said.
The two boys watched her jog to the fire pit. "Thanks, Eric." She said, grinning at him momentarily.
Nathan felt a pang in his stomach. "I'm not jealous." He whispered to himself.
