Chapter 7: Second Strikes
It was still night and the sign of rain was everywhere. Deron was already bringing everyone to the fountain to show them what he found. "It was the strangest thing I've ever seen, but now I know what it means." he said as he walked up to the fountain. "Look do you know what this means?" he then pointed at the carving.
"Yeah you brought us here to see some stupid drawings." Eddy replied.
"No look this is a carving of the Blood Orchid." Deron said.
Everyone except Carson was confused by what the Blood Orchid was. "What's so important is this funny looking flower that snakes eat?" Rolf asked.
"The Blood Orchid is not just any flower." Deron answered. "It's a rare plant that blooms once every seven years, and in it's blossom state it has a chemical that can sustain life when you eat it."
"You mean it's like a fountain of youth?" asked Double-D with Deron nodding. "Then that's why these snakes are so big since anacondas grow bigger the longer they live."
"So are you saying that these snakes are eating the Orchid?" Shorty asked a little confused.
"Yes don't you see these snakes are proof that the Orchid works." Deron replied. "Now all we need to do is take the rafts and go find it before we leave."
Everyone seemed like they wanted to do this. The only ones who weren't comfortable with it was Carson and Double-D. Those two knew how obsessed Deron was with the Orchid since he already risked their lives to find it.
"Forget it Deron I won't have any part in this." Carson said as he turned and walk off.
"Don't you understand Carson I can make us rich." Deron informed him. "I can make us all be rich and famous like no one else."
"How rich are we talking about here?" Eddy asked with that gleam in his eyes.
"Eddy!" Double-D shouted. "Well I for one will also not have any part in this charade."
"Yeah well what would you know about any of this kid?" Deron replied.
That stopped Double-D in his tracks. "I know plenty thank you very much; like it's your fault we're stranded here in the first place!" he shouted getting everyone's attention. Double-D now had no choice but tell them the truth. "Do you all know why we're stranded here? It's because Deron bribed Carson for one-million dollars if he stayed on the path. Even when he knew it was dangerous."
Everyone was shocked at what they heard. They all knew who was to blame for them being stranded here. Even the kids who thought Carson was crazy soon turned on Deron as the crazy one.
"So this is all your fault!" Marco shouted as he pointed at Deron. "You're the reason we're stranded here! You're the reason Bobby's dead right now!"
"Bobby's death was a necessary risk." replied Deron.
"Necessary my ass!" Marco continued to shout. "Enjoy life while you can, Deron, because when we get back to Borneo I'm going to kill you with my own hands." Marco started to walk off.
After that info everyone stared to walk back to the camp fire away from Deron. At that time they found out what kind of man Carson really was; a cold heated greedy man who would sacrifice others to get what he wanted. In other words he was worse then Eddy which is scary.
"Don't you guys understand I can make us live longer." Deron shouted.
"Give up Deron, you lost." Carson said walking away.
However Deron wasn't going to give up so easily. He was determined to get the Orchid no matter what. Back at the camp fire everyone was thinking of what they just happened. The kids felt bad about themselves because they been hard on Carson when it was Deron who got them stranded in the first place.
"I can't believe that Deron's guy was willing to risk our lives to get some stupid flower." Nazz said to them.
"Yeah, I take back everything I ever said about Carson." Kevin replied.
On the other side of the fire the Eds were also thinking about what happened. "I can't believe that, that no good scammer would double cross us like that!" Eddy shouted in rage.
"Yeah doesn't it kind of remind you of someone else who likes to scam people?" Double-D asked referring to Eddy, but Eddy didn't know that for some reason.
"Wow this is exactly like what happened on…" Ed tried to say until Double-D interrupted him.
"Let me guess Ed." Double-D stared. "This is just like the part of 'Scary Jungle Beast of Death' where there's a trader in the group that gets almost everyone killed?"
Ed gasped when he heard that. "You saw the movie too Double-D?" he asked.
"No Ed I was only guessing." Double-D answered.
Eddy then had a sinister look in his eyes. "You know guys we could go and find the Blood Orchid on our own." he said.
"But Eddy!" shouted Double-D.
"What!?" he asked. "You heard what Deron said; if we get our hands on it we'll be rich! We'll be drowning in jawbreakers."
"Yeah but look what happened because Deron was looking for it." Double-D tried to explain. "We're stranded here and Bobby's in the belly of a snake right now." what he was saying didn't seem to have any affected on him. "Not to mention when we get there, there's probably going to be over a dozen giant anacondas over there."
That got Eddy's attention. "You know what's a few hundred dollar worth our friendship?" he asked when it started to rain. "Okay if we get out of here I promise I will stop taking money that doesn't belong to me."
At the main hut in the village where they all kept all their stuff Baler was going inside to get something to protect them from the rain. While he was looking for something he accidentally knocked over Deron's bag having a box fall out of it. Baler walked over and opened the box revealing a space where a gun should be and noticed a satellite phone was also in the box. Baler grabbed the phone and started dialing numbers. He was almost done until Deron came in and caught him.
"What the hell are you doing?" Deron asked.
"What does it look like I'm doing?" Baler replied. "Not only did you risk our lives you were also holding out on us."
"Listen if you dial that number everything I've worked for will be all for nothing." Deron informed him.
"I don't care!" Baler shouted. "I'm going to do the right thing and get us out of here."
Deron needed a way to stop this, so he reached in his bag and got out the container with the spider in it. He opened the container and threw the spider on Baler's hand causing it to bite him. When it did this Baler swiped it off his hand and started feeling his muscles tense up and finding it hard to breath. Deron just caught the spider again and took all of his stuff and left. After five minutes Nazz came in to see why Baler was taking so long.
"Baler everyone was wondering what was taking you so long." Nazz said as she went into the hut and noticed Baler lying against the wall motionless. "Baler who did this to you?"
"De…Der…" Baler had a hard time saying anything, but still tried. "Der…on."
Nazz realized what he was saying when she also saw a spider bite on Baler's hand. What she didn't know was that above her there was a huge anaconda slithering on top of the beams of the hut. Nazz ran out of the hut to tell everyone about Baler without even seeing the snake. The snake came down to examine Baler for a moment and went backup on the beams. The last thing that Baler saw was that the snake went up on the beams only to strike at him, and then everything went black.
Nazz was running to the camp fire where everyone else was. "Deron!" she shouted getting his attention. "What did you do to Baler?"
"I don't know what you are talking about kid." Deron replied.
"Don't lie I know that you poisoned him." Nazz stated which go every ones attention. "You made that spider you got from Eddy's shoe to bite him."
"What!?" Carson shouted as he grabbed Deron by his shirt. "What did you do to Baler?" Deron didn't answer so Carson pulled out his gun. "Tell me or else."
"Will you really kill me Carson?" Deron asked.
"We're not in town we're not even in America, so I can kill you here and no one will care." Carson stated.
Everyone then heard something in the main hut, so they ran to investigate leaving Deron by himself. They ran in the hut and noticed that Baler was missing. When they looked up they looked in horror as they saw what was left of Baler being eaten whole by an anaconda. Carson told the kids to get back as he and the rest of his crew started shooting the snake, but none of the shots had effects on it. When Carson noticed this he ran to get one of the torches and threw it in the hut. Everyone watched as the hut burned also seeing the snake fall in the fire.
"Oh great it got Baler to." Sarah said.
"How could this day get any worst?" Jimmy shouted.
Just then another anaconda jumped out of the water next to the kids.
Jonny had his ear to the plank at the time. "Plank said 'you had to ask."
The anaconda made a strike at them until a gun shot was heard and the snake fell to it's death. The kids saw that Carson shot the snake in the head. Carson and his crew ran to the kids to make sure they we're okay. While they were running a third anaconda lunged out of the jungle and got Shorty by his legs. Before anyone could react the anaconda pulled Shorty into the jungle unable for anyone to see him. Marco ran to where Shorty was and started shooting the entire jungle out of anger until Carson stopped him.
"Save your ammo." he said. "We're going to need them."
Carson and Marco then went where Terren was and kids were. The all headed to the river to get on the rafts, but there was a problem. One of the rafts was missing.
"Where did the raft go!?" Carson shouted.
"How should we know we were concentrating on that snake that almost ate us." Kevin replied.
Then another question came to mind' where was Deron? It didn't take long for Carson to realize the answer. While they were killing the snakes Deron snuck pass them and took one of rafts to find the Blood Orchid.
"That no good thief." Nazz said. "He just left us here to die."
"Couldn't we just take the other raft?" asked Jimmy.
"No." Carson answered. "There's no way we could all fit on that thing."
"So lets just make another one." Sarah suggested.
"Oh yeah well with what!?" Marco shouted pointing at the burning hut.
Carson started to think of what they should do at this point. He had one idea, but he knew that no one would like it. "There's only one thing we can do." he said getting every ones attention. "We have to follow Deron to the Blood Orchid."
Everyone stared at him for a second before saying anything.
"How are we going to follow that crazy nincompoop if we can't all fit on that raft?" Rolf asked.
"Easy." Carson replied. "Me, my crew, and some of you kids will follow him on foot. The rest of you kids will get on the raft and head out of here and head back to Borneo."
"But Carson you don't know where the Orchid is." Terren informed.
"Actually this fell off of Deron's bag." Double-D held up a piece of paper that looked like a map. "It looks like this might lead us to Deron."
"Not to mention he also dropped some money." Eddy said holding a twenty dollar bill and shoved it in his pocket.
"Eddy!" Double-D shouted sounding very disappointed.
"What I said I would stop taking money after we got out of here." Eddy replied.
Carson took the map from Double-D and gave a smirk. "Okay in two minutes we will go after Deron, and get out of this hell hole." he said.
Everyone then got prepared to find Deron. First they would decide who will come with along, and then go after him. The rest will go back to Borneo and wait for them. At this time it was time to Hunt the Blood Orchid.
End of Chapter 7
A/N: Not much to discuses right now, but I do hope you're enjoying the story. Please send me some reviews.
