Sorry the story has started out sort of slow. This chapter has a little more excitement. Thanks again for reading!
Chapter 4
We were probably riding around for hours. There was no way for us to keep track of time. The snow kept falling which made it more difficult to continue riding. Nick was leading us on our trek. Maybe that's why we were having such trouble finding anything. I was close behind him and Jessica was a few feet behind me.
All I can think about is our friends. My mind is coming up with tons of possibilities for what happened to them. None of them are good. I just hope we are able to reach them. Nick was right, I didn't talk to them that often, but I enjoyed the time I spent with everyone and I want to be closer with them. They were cool to hang out with when Jessica and Nick were busy being popular. It's too soon for me to loose these people I'm just getting to know better.
Nick is trying his best to find anything that will be of use to us. The constant snowfall is making it hard too see. For all he knows, we could just be going in circles. He knows I really want to find our friends. He also wanted to find Jenna. Thinking about her beauty and all the other reasons he was in love with her just kept distracting him from the task at hand. He needs to focus on finding the group.
Jessica has gotten quite tired of this. This riding through the snow is really boring. She doesn't understand why she had to help find those people. They were Reanna's friends, not hers. She barely ever spoke to them. She wanted to be there for her best friend so she decided she is going to have to make some sacrifices.
The more we traveled the slower Jessica snow mobile was going. She slowly started falling behind. She was getting uncomfortable being in the same position on the snow mobile. She stretched her leg for a second. That was a big mistake. Whatever she hit on her way to the cabin was still on her snow mobile. Her pant leg got caught on it. She felt the pressure increase on her ankle. It was starting to become painful.
Jessica looked down and saw blood dripping onto the snow. This was really serious. "Reanna! Help me!" I look over and see Jessica struggling. "Jessica? What's going on?" I screamed in concern. "Stop the snow mobile." Nick hollered after he noticed the dilemma. "I can't!" she screamed back. I knew we had to do something before Jessica's ankle broke. Nick and I stopped our snow mobiles and started running after hers. Once we caught up and stopped her snow mobile, I helped Jessica pull her ankle off.
"How does it feel?" I inquired while I looked at her bloody ankle. "It hurts a little, but I'll be fine." She replied while trying to fake a smile. "But it's bleeding, that's not a good sign." I say in concern. "I'm okay, don't worry. Let's go." She tried to reassure us, but I wasn't convinced. "We have to do something about your ankle!" I demanded. "Hey, look!" Nick exclaimed as he pointed somewhere in the distance.
"It's a giant building." "Let's head over there." I suggest. "Why? What about your friends?" Jessica wondered. "They will have to wait." I replied. "She's right; we have to at least wrap up your ankle." Nick agreed. "I'm fine, don't-"Jessica began but I interrupted. "We're going. Don't argue with me. We need to make sure you are okay." "You can ride with me on my snow mobile." Nick said. We then helped her onto his snow mobile and headed towards the large building in the distance.
