A bright light shone through the crack of Capricorn's eyelids. The storm had finished sometime during the night. She yawned and stretched her arms as she got up. Her eyes widened as she shot up, where was she? Her heart began to beat faster as Pisces appeared in the doorway. Suddenly the memories from the previous day filled her head as she let out a long breath she didn't know she had been holding and she flopped back onto the sofa, earning a grunt from Taurus, who had somehow swapped places with Leo and was lying underneath her.

"Wakey wakey, EGGS AND BAKEY!" Pisces shouted, resulted in most of them waking up. Sagittarius woke up with a jolt and Aquarius, who had ended up on top of her, fell with a loud thud onto the carpeted floor.

"I've discovered a kitchen and some food in the cupboards!" Pisces replied as he began to walk out, they stood up slowly and trudged behind him,

"If I don't get some eggs and bacon now, I swear I'm going to stab somebody," Scorpio grumbled and Taurus frowned,

"You have a very dark sense of humor."

They turned a corner. This cabin was huge, and yet, how did it look so small from the outside? They were in the kitchen now. It was average size, the cabinets and counter were a chestnut brown and it was brighter than the rest of the house, or what they had seen of it at least. The group gathered around the island and watched as Leo brightened up considerably and began getting ingredients ready for what seemed to be pancakes.

"Morning!" Taurus greeted cheerily as Capricorn stood next to her. "I feel so much beter now," Scorpio stood to the other side of Capricorn and nodded slightly as a form of greeting.

"I didn't know you could cook," Aries raised an eyebrow as Leo flipped a pancake and it landed perfectly.

"I didn't know you could look that beautiful as soon as you woke up," he winked at her. A collective groan ran through the group, Aries included. They had expected a snarky response, not a flirtatious one,

"I mean it is Leo," Cancer shrugged,

"What?" Pisces asked,

"Didn't somebody say that they had expected a snarky response?" Cancer said,

"No, but I'm pretty sure everyone was thinking it,"

"Yeah, I was probably just talking to myself," he laughed.

Everyone was gathered around the island, eating the pancakes that Leo had made 'with love'. They all were in separate conversations when there was a knock at the door. "I'll get it!" Gemini jumped up and rushed to the front door, although they had calmed her down the previous night, she had still been jittery the entire morning. Everyone followed her into the living room. The knocking continued. Gemini looked through the peephole. "It's Principal Orion and Phoenix." She said, turning back to the others.

"Well tell them to open it! They're the ones who left us in here, with no handles to open the door, how do they expect us to open the door?" Libra cried. The knocking continued.

"Come in!" Aquarius shouted impatiently. The door opened immediately,

"Took you long enough, we couldn't come in until you said we could," Orion said as he sat professionally on the sofa.

"You locked us in a cabin and now you're being cordial?" Capricorn said sarcastically.

"No, we literally can't, not without your permission at least," Phoenix sighed,

"Oh let me guess, you're a vampire. So where are your fangs?" Scorpio laughed,

"No, we put up a spell around the cabin, nobody can enter unless granted access," Phoenix replies coolly,

"Again with magic crap, you can't actually expect me to believe this?" Scorpio said,

"You still don't believe," Phoenix sighed, Scorpio clenched his fists,

"No! And do you want to know why? Because you're making this up. You can't lock us away in a cabin and expect us to believe anything you put on a silver platter and serve us. And you guys," he turned to the others, "You believe in this shit, then you are as insane as these two." He turned and stepped towards Orion and jabbed his finger at his chest. The principal sat calmly, this seemed to infuriate Scorpio further as his face turned red, "You, you are the reason for all this. You had to give me that scholarship, I didn't even apply for this stupid school, and now you have ruined my life, taken me away from my parents, the people who actually cared for me, and now you've locked me up in a room. This is exactly what I wanted to be taken away from. This is exactly like the—"

"SCORPIO!" Virgo cried suddenly, Scorpio stopped and glared at him, "Stop,"

"No! This is insanity." He cried angrily,

"Scorpio," Taurus said softly, Scorpio growled and stalked out of the room, Capricorn was about to go after him but Orion raised his hand, indicating for her to let him go.

"You can go after him later. Right now we need to talk about something or someone who is a threat to you all right now."

"Ophiuchus," Aries said, half talking to herself,

"Yes," He said, "I believe Phoenix has spoken to you about him." They all nodded their heads.

"You are safe for now, but I have put a force field-"

"Oh my gosh wait we're being serious here?" Aquarius interrupted, "I mean yes, I kinda believed but honestly I didn't realize how ridiculous you sounded until now," he snorted and looked around, everyone looked back at him with blank faces. He cleared his throat awkwardly and rubbed the back of his neck, "Please, continue," he mumbled under his breath.

"I have put up a force field around the cabin. Don't let anyone you don't know in. Also, you will be unable to continue once you've gone a certain distance from the cabin." Phoenix finished, "Any questions?" Nobody said a word. Orion stood up and brushed off his suit,

"Great, then Phoenix and I will be getting back to the school." They walked out of the door,

"Wait!" Virgo cries, "What ab-" bang! They slammed the door. "Gee, Thanks," Virgo grumbled. He turned to the others, "What about our education?"

"Who cares about education? We get to miss school!" Leo laughed. Virgo glared at him and walked away.

"Hey, this place is huge, we have to go explore!" Aquarius cried as he bounced happily. They all nodded in agreement and they walked to the staircase leading somewhere they hadn't been before.

As they walked in they discovered themselves in front of a long hallway with doors scattered on each side. Aries walked up to the first door and looked. Above the door stood a large plate with her name. She walked to the other door, that one had Libra's name. "I think these are our bedrooms," she said as she traced the letters. Virgo went and opened his door, which was next.

"Yup," he said, he went in as everyone crowded at the doorway, looking in. His room had dull green walls with pictures hung up behind the bed.

"Mine's different," Aries said, "Mine has orange walls,"

"Mine has blue,"

"Grey for me,"

"I have the same bedroom as Virgo," Taurus said, looking at her bedroom,

"Me too," Capricorn cried from the end of the hallway. Across from her was Scorpio's bedroom. She knocked cautiously,

"Go. Away." Came the short reply. Capricorn sighed and went back to the others.

"Scorpio is in his room. How about we go get him later. We should go check out the rest of the house." Everyone nodded in agreement as they headed downstairs. Libra walked over to the main door. They all gathered around in anticipation as she slowly unlocked the door.

"And now," she said, "for the great reveal," Everyone leaned forward. Before she could continue, Leo pushed the door open,

"Guys it's not like we've never been outside before." He walked out onto the wooden veranda and breathed in deeply, "Ahh, fresh air." The storm had passed in the morning and gave the forest a cleansed feeling. Aquarius pushed past him and ran towards the lake that lay glittering underneath the sun,

"Let's go onto the lake!"
