I really do appreciate every one of them.. here is chapter 16 (:

Chapter sixteen;

It was dark, with a few feet gap in the hutch thirty feet above. With the use of her left hand, Musa whiped the dust out of her eyes and hoisted herself up out of the pit of water that was resting at the bottom of the cliff. It was cold, her body was shaking and she was coughing up water that was becoming to friendly to her lungs. She wasn't for sure what had happened, nor where she was currently located. Her body was aching, worse than she had ever felt before in her entire life. All of her bones hurt, not to mention her eyes were stinging with dust and her lungs felt like they were on fire.

She searched her pockets for her cell phone, but she had no clue. The only lighting was in the center of the pool of water. The ripples were getting bigger and bigger as Musa tossed a few rocks into it. She had a knack for skipping stones.

"Hello?" Musa tried to call out before choking and leaning over to cough up more water. She was tired, tired as she could have possibly been in her whole life. She leaned her body against a few rocks and slowly felt her eyes close and the word suddenly seemed much more lonely and darker than before.

::::

Riven and the others had been searching for the last fourty-six minutes and he was starting to worry. In the pit of his stomach he knew there was someting wrong. There was someting seriously wrong.

"Any luck?" Techna pushed up her glasses and asked the others. She kicked her feet around in the sand and was hoping for some kind of luck. Anyting right now sounded better than a shitty case of bad luck.

"Nothing." Brandon muttered looking around at the others. His eyes were wide and he was making sure he was paying extra attention to everyone. Three of their friends were missing and this was no joking or laughing matter. It was night fall and the party was still going on.

"Damnit." Riven hissed, kicking his foot into a little kids' sand castle that had been sitting on the beach from the previous morning. It was such a shame that a nice castle had to be blown away by the power of is kick and the blowing wind.

Flora looked at Riven, "Guys come on, I am sure they are all right."

"We don't know that for sure." Riven glared at Flora. He didn't mean to snap, but his voice was sounding more like venom.

Helia grabbed Flora in a protective manner. He knew how Riven got when he was mad or upset. "That was really uncalled for Riven." Timmy noted, not really wanting to be the one wo had to stand up to Riven's angry tyrants.

"And there is three of our friends missing. There is someting wrong and nobody else is taking their time to care."

"Look lets be logical Riven..." Helia started-

"No listen here. There is something wrong. I just know there is. If none of you guys will believe me, than fine, I will go out by myself and search for them. Stay here and continue on with your stupid game of volleyball. What ever." Riven turned around to walk away, but Brandon grabbed his wrist.

"He's right, we should still look for them. Someting could be wrong. They have been missing for two hours and it is night fall, anything could have had happened. Lets split up into three groups.

Everyone nodded their head and needed a plan.

Layla looked around, she was use to being a hiker and exploring islands and forests. "What if they went into the forest, that is the only place we have not checked yet."

"Alright, Brandon, Sky and I will search into the forest. Since we are guys and all and we are looking for our women, we should go in it. Great thinking Layla. Layla, Nabu, Helia and Flora, you guys should occupy around the forest to make sure that nobody comes out of it. And Timmy and Techna, you guys should stay here just in case they come back.. It would be wise if we had somebody around here searching."

"Let's go." Together the three headed towards the forest.

::::

Bloom and Stella groaned as they got back up to their feet. "We need to go find Musa." Stella started walking towards the wall of collapsed rocks.

Relentlessly Bloom grasped her arm and started pulling her towards the entrance of the tunnell. "No Stella. That is dangerous and unsafe, example what happened a few minutes ago- which felt like a long time to me- we could get hurt in the process. We sould get out of here and find some help and call the police. They can send in a rescue team to look for Musa."

Stella turned around and glared at Bloom, "No fucking way am I leaving. That is my bestfriend and she could be in there hurt. What if she needs us and she is dying, or what if she dies because we werent there to help her. You can leave but I am going to find my way in there."

Without thinking, Bloom jumped onto Stella and landed on top of her. "We need to go. What good is doing Musa if we are in here making the cave collapse even more. The more time we spend in here arguing and searching for her, is the less of a chance we have to get to her and get her help."

"No i'm not leaving." Stella threw Bloom off of her and continued on walking towards the collapsed rocks. "Stop being so stupid." Bloom growled.

Stella whipped her head around. "Me, being stupid? I'm not the one who cheated on my boyfriend."

That was enough for Bloom to hear. She stomped over to where Stella was and slapped her across her face as hard as she could. "Yeah and at least I didn't fuck your boyfriend."

Stella half laughed and rubbed the side of her face, "That's okay, at least I am not easy and still am not aware of who I went upstairs with. Hello isn't it obvious?"

"No it isn't obvious and I hope you are satisfied with my sloppy seconds."

Stella turned around and pushed Bloom into the wall and started to hit her. In return, Bloom kicked Stella in the stomach and knocked her onto the ground.

"Bitch." Stella muttered and grabbed onto Bloom's leg and tugged her to the ground, throwing dirt in her eyes.

"Slut." Bloom shouted, giving Stella a good punch in her arm.

"Man whore."

"Man stealing whore."

"Jealous small boobs."

"Really? You have to bring my small boobs into this?" Bloom half laughed as she was laying on the ground beside Stella panting.

"It was pretty funny huh?" Stella giggled, straightening out her tank top.

Bloom rolled her eyes, "And it was totally uncalled for too you know."

"It sure was funny though. Admit it." Stella was laughing and before they knew it, they were both laughing like the good ol' days.

"I'm sorry." Bloom whispered.

"Me too." Stella looked at Bloom and reached for a hug. They were practically sisters afterall, and that was the way she wanted it to be.

::::

"It's so dark out here." Sky said as he pushed away branches from his face. Trees were clumped together and moss clung to the trees just like the mounds of spiderwebs.

"Dang, spiders." Riven groaned.

Brandon chuckled, "Come on, they are not that bad. You think you would be over your phobia by now."

Riven whiped his head around and glared at both Brandon and Sky. He was leading in the front and by now he had enough scratches on him to make it look like he was locked in a cage with a tiger for a few minutes. The woods was beyond thick and he was tired of walking. His legs ached as he checked his Fossil watch. "Guys we have been walking for almost an hour and there is still no sign of anyone.

"Hello, is anyone else out there?" Sky called, is voice echoing throughout the forest.

"Like that is going to work." Brandon glared at Sky and pushed his way through to catch up to Riven.

In Riven's mind he was starting to panic. He had not seen Musa since earlier and his heart was staring to race. What if he couldn't find her or something bad had happened to her. He would have never lived with himself. He always vowed to protect her, seeing as she was one of the only special things he actually cared about. She was one of the best things that had ever happened to him.

"Don't worry, we will find her." Brandon placed a reassuring hand on Riven's shoulder.

He nodded his head and kept searching for the girls.

::::

"What if we cannot find our way out of here?" Bloom whispered. The dark scared her, ever since she was little.

Stella gulped as she hated the dark just as much as Bloom did. She was tired of walking; all of her muscles in her body ached. "We will, or we wait til morning and head out from there. The others have to be looking for us, they just have to. They are not going to leave us out here alone."

"But what if they do?"

"They won't." Stella reassured Bloom. Deep down in her mind was questioning the same thing. Were the others even taking a notice that they were missing.

"Gosh, I hope Musa is okay. She needs help. The longer we cannot get help, the longer she is down there. We don't know what kind of condition she is in." Bloom bit her tongue from saying more. She was so worried and her stomach was twirling a million miles a second.

"Shh." Stella stopped in her tracks and grabbed Bloom's arm.

"What?" Bloom said as she winced in pain.

"Be quiet. I hear someting." Stella grabbed Bloom and pulled her behind the tree with one hand over her mouth. It was not long before Bloom heard the same thing as Stella. Leaves and sticks were cracking and someting was making a huge noise within the bushes a few feet over.

"Stay still." Stella whispered and didn't dare to move. Anything could be hidden behind those bushes.

"Stella and Bloom both screamed when a group of three guys crammed through the bushes.

Riven, Sky, and Brandon turned their heads towards the girls and were shocked that they were standing right there.

"Glad are we here to see you guys." Brandon said and grabbed Stella, pulling her into a refreshing hug.

Riven paused, "Guys were is Musa?"

Stella gulped, "We don't know."

Bloom paused and tears were in her eyes. "We don't know Riven. We seriously do not know."

Riven turned towards them, his heart was racing. Just when he thought he was releaved, he was totally wrong. "What do you mean, you don't know?"

That was when Stella started to cry, tears were streaming down her face. Brandon pulled her closer and took his fingers and whiped them off of her face as they were falling. "I'm sorry Riven we don't know. We were in the cave exploring and Musa started to run and the next thing I was aware of that she fell and screamed as loud as she could. I heard her falling and then I yelled after her and the cave started to cave in. Rocks were falling everywere. I tried going back for her and Bloom pulled me away from it all. If it wasn't for Bloom getting me out of there, I would have been crushed."

"You guys left her in there." Riven shouted, scaring a few birds that were resting in the trees above away.

"Stop." Sky looked at Riven and gave him a stern look.

"I went back." Stella started to cry.

"We left to go get some help. We didn't want to leave her, we didn't want to leave the cave." Bloom whimpered and leaned closer into Sky's arms. He wrapped his arms around her, whispering to her it wasn't her fault.

"Do you know where this cave was?" Riven was frantically thinking in his mind. He had to find Musa, no matter what he wasn't leaving until he found her.

"I think this way." Stella pointed. She was confused, she wasn't for sure. It was dark out and everything was happening so fast. "We need to get to her." Riven said he and started walking faster.

"He's worried." Brandon filled in. He knew he would be the same way if it was Stella missing.

::::

"Here it is." Stella sat down onto the ground. The moon was out shining bright as come be. It was pitch black out, nothing was being disrupted. The outdoors was so pretty at night. She didn't know that she could be this tired.

"My body hurts." Bloom groaned.

"You two stay out here. I'll go in with Riven and Sky will make sure nothing happens to you two out here." Brandon followed Riven into the cave. Riven was almost into a run. It was very dark out and quiet.

"Does your phone have any battery life?" Riven spoke up. "Yeah here." Brandon handed Riven his Droid.

"This must be where the rocks caved in at."

"We can't pull them out Riven, it could kill us, or worse Musa in there. We cannot take the chance of causing this cave to collapse in more.

"Musa, Musa. Can you hear me." Riven shouted, trying to yell as loud as he could through the rocks.

There was still no answer.

He banged his fists into the rocks. He was not caring whether he would break his hand or if he would have bruises on them, he wanted to find her more than anything.

"Musa, come on. Musa. Musa!" Riven's voice echoed throughout the cave, stirring the peace.

On the other side of the rocks...

Musa woke up, her head was pounding and her eyes felt heavy. Her whole body was heaving for air and she was cold. Nothing was going right for her. She shook and goosebumps took over her whole body.

"Musa!" Musa's head shot up, leaving a sharp pain escalate troughout neck.

She heard her name being shouted again and the voice sounded like Riven. She pulled herself up and she used all of her energy to head towards where the noise was coming from. She only got about ten feet and in those ten feet she thought she was going to die. Her whole body was aching and she had to dig her nails into the dirt to distract some of the pain that was coming from her body.

"Musa, please."

Musa tried to speak but her mouth was hoarse. Nothing was coming out. Finally after awhile, she was able to yell, "Riven?"

...

Riven froze and told Brandon to be quiet. "Musa is that you, do you hear me." He shouted, hoping that she would hear him.

Her voice sounded strange, "I'm here. Help me."

"Are you okay?" His voice quivered, but he was so grateful that he knew she was semi-okay. She just had to be.

"I hurt. A lot." She cried out. Riven couldn't even imagine how much pain she was in.

"I"m coming for you. Stay with me okay?"

He didn't hear anyting back. "Musa!"

"I'm tired Riven. I want to sleep." Her voice was starting to drift away.

Riven turned to Brandon for answers. He had never been more scared in his life.

"Ahh whatever you do Riven, do not let her sleep. She most likely has a concussion. Sleep is the worst thing for her. It could kill her possibly, keep her awake and tell her to keep her head elevated. Are you okay staying here? I need to go get help."

Riven nodded his head, "Of course I'm staying here. Don't be to long. Go and hurry." Riven practically shoved Brandon out of the cave. His hand was shakey and he was so worried about Musa.

"Musa, can you tell me what you see?"

"Musa!" He hollered when she didn't answer back.

"A huge thing of water."

He raised his eyebrows. "How do you know its water?"

"Because I see the moons reflection."

"How?"

He waited for her to answer back. Her speech was slow and her voice seemed like it was distancing further and further away. "Musa! Please!"

"Riven, I am so exhausted. Because the moon."

"How?"

"Ahh gap, its wide and you can see the moon. It's like a thirty foot drop.

Riven paused and thought to himself. "How big is the gap?"

"I'm tired Riven. My eyes hurt. Please stop asking questions."

"Baby come on, just one more answer. All you have to do is stay awake for this question. That is it."

He was surprised when she didn't comment back on him calling her that. Normally she would have made something up too. That was how they were. Always te best friends and always the flirtasious two. There was definitely something wrong with her.

"It's like six feet wide."

That was enough for Riven. "Musa, I'm coming for you. I promise."
