Last time on A Dark Past, A Hopeful Present...
"The only advice is...don't underestimate them, they are somewhat evil, you should keep some distance from that team" Amber said
The others remained silent thinking about what there female member had said.
All of a sudden Tyson dropped his bag and ran out the room, "AHHHHHHHHH"
He quickly ran back to the room, only to be greeted with questioning faces
"WHERE IS THE KITCHEN" He yelled.
'...Yep this was going to be an extremely long week...' Amber thought

A Dark Past, A Hopeful Present
Chapter 12- An encounter throughout the night...
(Normal P.O.V)
It was the middle of the night and Amber had been thrashing about in her sleep from the top bunk. Memories that haunted her have been flooding her mind. She turned over, which proved to be a bad thing since she fell on the floor. The silence of the room was interrupted by a body that hit the floor and a groan of pain. Two members sprung up from there bed to see what was the cause of the noise.
The two members walked over adjusting there sight to the darkness, when they got near the body they looked at each other. One of them stepped forward but stopped when he felt a small hand tighten there grip around his ankle, he moved his leg quickly, and ended up dragging the body with him, the body grunted.
The second strode over to the light and flicked it on. Both looked on the body and visibly relaxed when they noticed it was just Amber. She glanced up and glared at the two.
"Sorry" Ray said as he helped her up. Kai strode over angrily.
"What was that noise" Kai said coldly.
"I'm on the floor my bed is up there, make the connection" she bit back anger emitting from her. She got up and dusted herself off, "We should turn off the lights before the rest of the teams wake up" she said, she then turned around and climbed over to her bed muttering incoherent profanities under her breathe. Ray looked at her a bit worried, guilt shown in his gaze since he did drag her on the floor.
Kai ignored the two and went over to turn off the lights; he strode over to his bed and stopped to glance around the room to make sure his team mates where already in bed, with a final sigh he tucked himself in the covers.
Throughout the night a red/brunette lied awake, afraid to sleep so the memories wouldn't haunt her, she turned over and looked at the window, but all she saw was a mass of trees.
She waited will she was sure that her team was asleep; she then quietly got off her bed trying not to wake Tyson who was the bunk under her. She then got her blade and silently walked out the room.
She got to the door and searched her shoes when she found them she slipped them on, closed the door gently and went outside.
(Amber's P.O.V)
The night was a bit chilly but I ignored it. I continued walking down a familiar path, when ever I went camping I would come to this clearing...it was a peaceful area. I was approaching it and suddenly stopped noticing shadows in the distance. I hid behind a tree and tried to get a closer look, I saw outlines of two people...they looked familiar...I came out from my spot and went to hide behind a tree that was closer. I felt my heart beat faster that recognizable feeling of fear creeping up slowly.
I took a deep breathe and concentrated on the two figures, one was female and the other male they were standing opposite from each other, two blades in between them. I stayed there and continued to watch silently as they battled.
"Your getting better, but you still need a lot of work for the task that we are supposed to accomplish" I heard a baritone voice say after the battle was over. The female remained quite and sat against the tree I was hiding behind. 'Oh Shit', I stayed as quiet as I could ever be, hoping not to get caught. I heard he sigh deeply. I peeked from the side of the tree and saw that the male was no longer there. I turned around slowly wondering where he was. I let out an involuntary gasp as I saw him in front of me.
He stepped closer to me, until I could see his face..."Mark" I uttered silently. He grabbed my wrist, and violently shoved me towards the spacious clearing, the moons light shinning down on the clearing. I fell on the ground but got up quickly and sent a glare in his direction.
"What do you think your doing" He said coldly.
"None of your business...traitor" I bit back coldly. He glared and strode towards me till we were only a couple of inches apart.
"Seems we have a spy" He said to the other girl who was still sitting against the tree, she only glanced at me in a bored fashion...she looked familiar...
"I don't need to see your pathetic moves" I said bitterly, which made him focus his attention on me again.
His reply was another glare, until he pinned me against a tree, "I'd watch what I'd say sister" he said acidly. I squirmed trying to release myself from his grasp, but that proved to be pointless since my hands were pinned above my head. "Bastard" I growled.
He smirked and let me go, he nodded his head towards the girl...she stood up and made her way out of the clearing followed by Mark.
I remained there in the same place my eyes following them as they left. When I was sure that they left I climbed up a tree and sat down on the branch, my back against the bark. I looked up at the sky...there were no clouds, stars twinkled and the moon shined brightly.
A feeling of tranquility slightly settled inside of me, but various thoughts kept racing through my mind. 'What task were they supposed to accomplish?', 'Who was that girl...I know her...' I never really took a good look at my brother's team...I didn't really care...but then why am I so intrigued to find out...
I forced the thoughts out of my head and found myself observing the stars, trying to find recognizable constellations. I felt my eyes close slowly, I tried to stay awake but couldn't...I fell into a peaceful sleep...a sleep that I craved for a long time...

Morning

(Ambers P.O.V)
I felt something peck at me..."go away" I mumbled hoping that the thing would leave, so I can continue sleeping, but the proved to be useless since the pecking continued. I opened my eyes slightly and saw a little bird…'Ugh, stupid bird'. I closed my eyes again and tried shooing the bird away by gently swatting it away.
I felt a bit happy when it stopped…until it came back again. I opened my eyes and glared at the bird.
The small blue and green bird with a red beak only looked at me and continued pecking. "DO I look like breakfast SHOO, leave me alone" I bellowed to the innocent creature… to someone who was just passing they might have thought I was crazy, but I don't really care. The bird finally flew away, and I sighed in relief, I tried closing my eyes to take a nice long nap, but that didn't work.
I sat up grudgingly and began to climb down swearing under my breathe. I looked around the clearing, the events of yesterday flooding back into my mind, with a final sigh; I began to walk back to the cabin, hoping that the teams were still sleeping. A continuous thought kept running through my mind...'I have to find out what they are up to'...
I went to the cabin and looked around, things seemed normal, so I entered only to find...
