It was to the point she was whispering. She had lost hope. How long had it been? 15 minutes, it felt like a century since she had been stuck here. Alone. What else could be here with her. Basilisks, Bugs? She shivered as a chill was starting to come in.
"We should proberbly go find her," Iris began walking in the general direction of where she had heard the yelling.
Levi followed Iris, looking around for any sign of Zoe.
"Okay lets go." Ari said, and she took off in a run.
"Do we have to run?" Levi complained, his legs starting to ache.
"You don't but I am!" Ari called.
Iris let Ari overtake her, keeping at a stead pace she kept her eyes open and tried to listen out for any sign of Zoe.
Soon enough Zoe started hearing voices. " I'm over here!" She yelled in her loudest voice which came out in a whisper. How were they suppose to find her now?
"Zoe?" Ari cried. "Zoe where are you?"
She didn't bother answering back since they wouldn't be able to hear her. Slowly her world went black as her mind surrendered to exhaustion.
"Zoe- AH!" Ari tripped and fell into a hole, landing… beside Zoe! "Zoe!" she cried.
In her dreamless sleep, she heard a voice. "Zoe!" It sounded like Ari. She didn't believe it and her mind went into a deeper state of sleep.
Levi ran up to the hole Ari had fallen in, seeing her and Zoe inside. "What the-"
Iris saw the figure of Ari fall somewhere a bit in front of her, she quickly walks over there to see a hole with two people inside, "well, you look comfy." She sticks her hand out to help them out of the hole.
Lata came up behind Levi and looked in on the two in the hole.
Brianna stared at the ground from her perch on a tree, enjoying the silence.
Feran's father had raced through the trees until he found the children, easily lifting them out of the hole and cradling Zoe like she weighed nothing. Running beside him, Feran gave a few furry leaves to Ari. "These will help with the scrapes and bruises." As an after thought he added, "You eat them." Finishing his statement he smiles brightly. "Dads probably going to take her back to the house so we can patch her up, unless any of you can take her home to her folks." His dad makes a series of unintelligible noises and growls. "Yes dad, I'm asking them now."
Zoe opened her eyes, a little to make out hazly shapes of people above her.. " Felix? Mother." She whispered before she went back to sleep.
Lucas came up behind them, panting. He had never been the athletic type. "Is… is everyone okay?"
(How can I shove Emily in this?)
"I think so," Lata said.
"I'm fine." Ari confirmed. "Thanks for the leaves Feran." she added, eating them. "That was crazy!"
( okay guys I'll be gone all day today. Please don't do anything super important while I'm gone! )
(Alright lol)
Feran smiles brightly. "Welcome! Could any of you take Zoe home? Dad was working on somethin-oh shoot!! I gotta run! It might burn." Sprinting away he runs through the forest.
