Teens in the Jungle

James

It was getting dark and I guess Luis had a point. I agreed to stick around until morning. Ms. Midori's camp was well defended anyways.

As I sat with the others I felt a sort of tension amongst the group. The island was getting to them, they were starting to fall apart. Soon enough this group would split and things would become even more dangerous. And who knew how long it would take for the same thing to happen to the others at Ms. Midori's camp too.

for the first time, i opened my heavy eyes and tried to sit up from my kimono. All the pain that had
happened came back to me all of the sudden and i grip my right shoulder and clenched my teeth.
I looked around and i saw Lindy curled up sleeping beside me. I saw another girl whom i might have saw sleeping with her knees curled.
But what came to me was the sight of Mori at the edge of the camp. I took a small dagger, stood up painfully and went towards her. I looked down and remembered what she did to me back there. However i simply canot kill her here. My reasons would think i was the mosnter and her purpose was not yet revealed.
I clenched my hands and gave a sighed.
"What do you want really?" i asked myself as i looked at the jungle. It looks deserted and empty but i do not trust it.
Slowly i walked away from the camp and into the rock formation just by the edge of the horizon. I needed to rest my mind

Kate


I did not say anything during the little arguement Comet, Star and Luis had. There was no point. I knew that once they were suspicious, it wouldn't be easy to earn their trust back. I sighed, as I looked into the night. It was dark, yes, but I wish we could do something, first of all, there was far too much drama going on, on a deserted island, where we're basically trying to survive. Alexis had moved out, basically because of a fight Chris and her had, Comet and James got into fights all the time, Star and Comet suspected we were hiding something and the whole group was falling apart, and becoming angrier by the minute. I was tired, though, too tired to think about it at the moment.
"Well, I'm tired, good night." I lay on a hard piece of rock, which, although uncomfortable, soon put me to sleep.

Chris

I wanted to find Alexis, I knew she had joined that other camp, and now that it had been attacked I was so worried, I didn't care that she was an animal, I still liked her. It didn't matter to me, whether she thought she was an animal or not, she was as human to me, as always, so I didn't see why, I shouldn't go looking for her. Even though it was nighttime.
I left the camp, completely deaf to the scorns I received from my group, it didn't matter to me, I needed to find Alexis. I walked in silence, I already knew the way. I reached the camp, soon enough.
"Is Alexis here?" I asked, as I saw Lindy, sitting by the injured Ms.Midori

Alexis

"Is Alexis here?" I heard chris ask Lindy.

I walked out of the shade of the trees. "I'm here." I said.

I walked towards him, I hoped maybe he still liked me...I still liked him. I was just incredibly worried I might hurt him on accident.

it was dark and my body ache in every way possible but i did not care. I sat down bseide the rock formation. I looked up. I wanted to go up there but my body was too painful and i risked having another accident.

I stare out at the open calm sea. So many things have had happen just this one day. I ahyd been attacked but was not killed. I tried to ponder that with that pack surrounding me they could have killed me but they did not not.

I asked myself what for they wanted but for now i simply calm my mind down. Be what my trainer told me. A geisha must be graceful. and a graceful geisha must have a graceful mind. I set my eyes to the sea before i go back to the camp.

i limped back to my camp after a few hourswhen i saw another person going there. It was a boy but not James. I saw Lindy sleepingly sitting beside Mori who had slept in my place.

They took notice of me...

"What do you want?" i asked weakly with my throat a bit dry.

Chris

"Alexis can we talk." She nodded, and we walked off.
"Listen, it was a bit of a schock at first, but I couldn't care less that you're what you are...you're still who you were...I still like you."
"okay..." - She said confused.
"So what do you say, will you come back? We want you back, please?"
I looked up waiting for her reply.

**Alright, I'm not sure what to post for Luis right now, so could someone sort of just bring him back in?**

Kate

It was morning before I knew it, and everyone was up, I wondered if they even slept that night, there was so much to worry about. I could sleep through something like that, though, especially if I was exhausted.
"So what do we do now?" I asked after I said good morning. "I mean, we've settled in, except for the fact where someone wants us dead or off this island, we're pretty much okay...for now...so what do you people want to do?"

~Comet~

I looked at Star, and she nodded. We can't afford secrets. So far, they've proven dangerous.

Perfectly clear memories of betrayels went through both our heads, almost simotaniously. Both of us shuddered. Neither of us were fans of the government anymore-not after they'd chased us for that long.

I walked over to Luis, totally out of character. Everyone stared at me as I stared at Luis, then put a hand on his head-I know, weird.

Could have done it better.

Shut up. I started reaching into his memories, putting them into my heads. Only I could do this, Star gave memories and I took them.

Alexis

I looked at Chris. I wanted to go back to the group, but I had an overwhelming feeling that the cave was becoming a dangerous place to be.

"I think we all need to be here." I stated.

"That's what James said." Chris told me about James coming to the cave and explaining everything to them.

"Why don't we go and bring everyone here then?"

James

Comet held his hand to Luis' head. Luis looked really freaked out. So did most everyone else in the cave.

"Uh, what the heck are you doing?" Luis asked.

"Yeah Comet, that's a little strange." I agreed.

Maeve

I watched Coment holding his hand to Luis' head. It seemed almost familiar. I thought back to being home with my family.

My father had been fully fire fairy, my mother fully human. My father was well aquanted with the 'magical' community and he always told stories about other beings with strange powers. He often told about those who could share or steal memories.

I tried to remember more of the story. All I could find was that they had to be in direct contact with someones head to use their powers. But there was more...I just couldn't remember it.

Kate

I didn't know how I knew it, but somehow I knew that this needed to be stopped. I walked over to Comet and took his hand away from Luis forehead. He looked at me annoyed.
"What are you doing, Comet?" I asked him, curiously. Everyone else seemed to want to know the same thing.

~Star~

So?

I got enough. Comet's voice said, and I felt both his annoyance and his curiosity. What had he seen? For some reason, he was hiding it from me. It must be huge or nothing for him to do that.

"He looked sick." Comet said, whipping his hand out of her grasp. He must have gotten a few memories out of that experiance. It was the reason he didn't like being touched; he didn't have full control over his abilities.

But still...Lamest. Excuse. Ever. Idiot

First thing that came to my mind.

I need to teach you how to lie better. I forced a smile off of my face.

"I asked him to, I'm still a bit drowzy...at least I was." I said, blinking. It still wasn't much better but we were running out of exuses. I scratched my head, glad the ski cap was still on my head. We weren't ready to give up our own little secret.

iniyuki

i woke up and saw that the other girl had already left. It was nearly dawn and i could see the sun shining by the horizon.

I sat up and remembered going to the rock formation to have an ease. I must have dose off and had walked here half asleep.

Mori slept beside me. I shrug her off. I still cannot fully trust her yet especcially to what had happened to me. My body was still aching with pain and slowly i went back to sleep. It may take time before i can fully recovered.

Kate

The excuse Comet made, was very lame. I looked at Luis who was starting to say something.

Chris

I stayed at Alexis's camp overnight. It was too dark to go back, anyway. I came inside and said:
"How many of you are willing to join Ms.Midori's camp?" Everyone averted their gaze from something they were looking at, and flicked their gaze to me.

**Sorry if I got the whole 'taking memories' thing wrong, I just assumed it was looking at them and not blanking them out in the victim's mind as well. Of course, if it's the latter, Luis will be very angry when he finds out. I don't think it'll make a huge difference in this post, though...**

Luis

He awoke to find a hand against his forehead, and opened his eyes, looking into Comet's, Wh-what?! What is he doing? Memories flashed past his eyes, his conversation with Kate, those few direct ones with Camille, snatches of thought-speak with his father. Christ! He's looking at my memories!

Then Kate was taking Comet's hand away, asking him what he was doing.

"He looked sick." Comet said.

"I asked him to," Star said, apparently trying to support her brother's blatant lie, "I'm still a bit drowsy...at least I was."

Luis' eyes narrowed, "I don't get sick." He said, "Never have, never will." Then he froze, eyes widening for a moment, before he looked straight at Comet, whispering coldly, "What have you done to me? You were in my mind!"
