It's time for something new lads. This time a fanfiction to the Five Friends of Enid Blyton. The events in this story will be really tricky for the five, and they will have to prove their courage and their friendship. This time they can only get through it, when their cohesion is so strong that nothing and nobody can stop them anymore.

This fan fiction is partly taken from the German film "Fünf Freunde 3". However, since this is a fan fiction, as already mentioned, there can be big differences. I haven't watched the movie myself, but I know the basic storyline. I just create something nice out of the puzzle pieces myself. ^^

Genres: Action, Romance, Friendship, Horror / Psycho-Horror, Mystery, Supernatural and also a bit of humor

Pairings: Dick x Joe, Julian x George, Anne x OMC

The age of the protagonists is as follows: Julian: 16, George: 15, Dick: 15, Anne: 14

Age Restriction Information: This story includes use of strong language, mention and depiction of physical violence, use of firearms, drug dealing and consumption. There may be erotic content or mention or depiction of sexual violence in this work, but this will be announced in advance with a "trigger warning".

Otherwise, I wish you a lot of fun while reading!

Exhausted and plagued by the enormously sultry air, the Famous Five and Joe stomped through the Thai jungle. Their search for the treasure that could save Joe's village turned out to be extremely complicated, despite the help of the compass. Not only the chaotic vegetation, but also the danger of being attacked by dangerous wild animals or caught by Cassi and Nick made their search drastically more difficult.

They passed a clearing that was a little less wild. "This looks like a good place for a camp. I really need a break," said Dick, and ran straight for the clearing. As he got closer, they heard a rustling in a bush not far from them. "What was that?" Anne asked startled. They all stopped as if rooted to the ground and looked tense in all directions. "Maybe just an animal," Julian replied and walked cautiously towards the clearing. "Be careful, Julian," George warned him. There was a definite note of concern in her voice. Dick, too, approached the clearing, but kept a watchful eye on all around him. "There's nothing here," said Joe. "It was probably really just an animal. No danger so far." Dick assumed. "If we weren't in a jungle, I'd believe you right now. But there are simply too many beasts here that like to hide and then attack you from behind" Anne replied, still full of fear. "Maybe it's Cassi and Nick," she added. "I don't care now, I need a break," George groaned and jumped over a fallen tree.

The friends had now reached the clearing. After further inspections and tense observation of their surroundings, they finally allowed themselves to rest. There seemed to be no danger. Totally exhausted from the long walk and fighting dehydration, the Famous Five and Joe sat down and rested for a while. "I never thought it would be so exhausting finding the treasure," Dick gasped. "Even though we have the compass that will lead us straight to the treasure." Julian added. "If this stupid treasure is even real." whispered George, who is not really convinced of the reality of the alleged pirate treasure. "It's real! And it is the last hope for me and my family. If that greedy Haynes gets that treasure, he'll leave us alone." Joe replied. She was used to the heavy air of the jungle, so she showed no signs of being exhausted. "Anyway, I need a few hours rest before I go looking for anything else. I can hardly even sit up straight anymore." Anne complained. Julian looked at his wristwatch which showed "08:43 p.m." " Well, let's call it a day now, tomorrow we'll leave again," he said and took a bottle of water from his backpack.

He sat down on a rock and took a big sip from the bottle. He ran his hand through his hair and thought about their latest adventure. After only a short time, it turned out to be one of the most dangerous they had ever experienced. Cassi and Nick, a gangster couple who were also after the treasure and knew that they had the compass, tried with all means to take it from them. Cassi proved to be quite unyielding and was not afraid to use force of arms against the children. They had seen weapons many times before, but they had never met anyone so willing to use them against the five. Nick, Cassi's jerky friend, had a different attitude. Either he didn't want to do the whole thing at all and just let Cassi take him along, or he didn't have enough guts to take violent action against children, like Cassi did. He was also a pretty big fool and had often made sure that the children got away safe and sound.

" Julian. Are you okay?", a voice ripped him from his thoughts. It was George who came to him with Timmy. "Sure. I was just thinking, you know. I think this adventure is the most dangerous thing we've ever been in," he replied, staring at the ground. "That's right." George narrowly confirmed. "But we'll manage," she added. "I thought the treasure was just a myth to you," Julian teased grinning. George shrugged and smiled at him, too. "Anything for the adrenaline rush," she said and laughed. Her laughter caused a kind of stare in Julian because he couldn't take his eyes off her. Euphoria spread through him. She made it seem as if she was happy and this made him happy as well.

George noticed that Julian was staring at her and looked into his eyes. She couldn't take her eyes off him either. For a long time they both looked into each other's eyes. George broke eye contact for a fraction of a second and started chewing on her lip. She couldn't stop her eyes to focus on his lips, which were decorated with a slight grin. Her heart started pounding wildly in her chest, and she could barely suppress the impulse to reach for his hand. What she could not prevent, however, was to give him a warm smile, which he immediately returned. She didn't even notice that she had come a little closer to him, but there was nothing she could do about it. Her mind was as if switched off, she felt her as if in a kind of trance and the boy in front of them would attract her like a magnet. "What the hell is wrong with me?" she asked herself silently. She seemed to have lost all self-control.

Timmy's barking made her come back to reality. The sly dog looked at her with his head held at an angle and barked again. "All is well Timmy," she sighed still grinning and knelt down to stroke his slightly dirty fur. Julian still sat on the stone and was now even more restless than before. What was it just between him and George? His heart was still racing and beating wildly in his chest. His hands trembled slightly and he had to try hard not to drop the water bottle in his hand. Or was it already too late for that?

A quick glance at the ground below him enlightened him. He had actually dropped the bottle. George also noticed this and gave him her full attention again. Timmy gave him a worried look, he knew something was wrong. "Are you sure you're all right?" George asked. "Yeah, sure. I'm just totally knocked out from the legwork today," he replied curtly and slid off the stone. Stupid idea, because when he stood on his feet again, he immediately became very uncomfortable. Nausea and dizziness plagued him and the headaches didn't leave him in peace either. George came closer to him and touched his arm slightly, whereupon she immediately pulled her hand back in shock. "You're almost burning," she whispered. "It's all right George. Nothing to worry about," Julian assured her. "I am worried Julian," she said seriously. "You look at me with a blank stare as if you were totally out of it, and you're almost burning."

Her face distorted before his eyes. He saw everything around him only blurred and had difficulty keeping his balance. Julian felt as if the earth's gravity was five times stronger on him. He knew that something was definitely wrong with him, but he had to stay strong. As the Elder of the Five, it is his duty to look after his brothers and sisters and his cousin and her dog. He forbade himself to become weak.

"You should rest, Julian," George said in a slightly commanding but worried tone. "But I must..." he began to protest, but she would not allow him to resist. She gently took his hand and pulled him to her sleeping bags. "What you need to do now is rest before you collapse," she said as they slowly approached the others, already dozing. "I hope you feel better tomorrow, otherwise I will start to worry even more." she whispered so as not to wake the others. "Tomorrow I'll be in top form again." he assured her. He doubted it himself, but he didn't want George to worry about him. That was his job, after all.

After he had slowly and agonizingly maneuvered himself into his sleeping bag, he felt as if he had been stapled to the ground, almost impossible to move even a little. Despite the hammering headache and the feeling of having just been put into the oven by the devil, Julian had fallen into a restless half-sleep within seconds. George on the other hand was still wide awake. Julian's peculiar behavior and the spontaneous staring contest that had caused her heart to race kept her awake. Never before had she been so worried about someone in her entire life. She was not surprised because before she had met Julian, Dick and Anne, she was always alone. Only Timmy was by her side, but that was quite enough for her. She loved Timmy more than anything and could not imagine a life without him from the very first day she met him. This affection also went over to the other three. After they had their first adventures together, they became inseparable. She could hardly imagine spending a holiday without Dick, Julian and Anne. The more adventures they had had together, the closer the others grew to her heart.

It was different with Julian. Of course, he is also incredibly important to her, so very important that she didn't want to admit it at all in order not to push the others into the background. He saw himself, as an elder, as the protector of the others and did everything to prevent them from getting into danger. Of course, this almost never worked because the famous Five Friends attracted danger almost magnetically, but Julian managed to pull them out of danger most of the time. Often the others helped out, especially Dick who was quite bragging and know-it-all but with his knowledge and ability to find a solution in a flash, was an incredible support.

Her thoughts drifted back to the strange event between her and Julian. For quite a while they stared into each other's eyes, and she seemed to forget everything, really everything around her. Absent-minded as she was, she hadn't even noticed that she had come closer to him. She wondered what would have happened if Timmy's barking hadn't pulled her out of the trance. She couldn't explain what was going on with her at the time. Slowly her eyelids grew heavy, and she decided to go to sleep as well. She also fell into a restless sleep.

That's it for the first chapter. Not very long but hopefully the next chapter will be a little more exciting.

I would be very happy about reviews and feedback because that keeps me motivated.
