Story 3
"Hey Quartz can you get that log? I have no more space to carry it," I started down the slope.
"But why me?" She asked, not so politely.
"Because nobody else can carry it because their hands are full with heavy logs," I answered, rolling my eyes.
"Well they're weaklings," she sneered teasingly.
I tried to stifle a chuckle, but when I turned around to get a perfect view of the Vampire Hunter's shocked faces, I couldn't control myself. So the dam holding back the laughter broke and I fell over, helpless with a fit of giggles. Quartz had also fallen over laughing.
"Seriously, you guys need to lighten up! Can't notice a joke when it pinches you on the nose?" I teased, pinching Rebecca lightly on the nose.
"Hey that hurts! But I did notice that joke that just pinched me on the nose." Then she fell over laughing, and so did everyone else.
"Ha, ha, ha very funny." I said sarcastically, clapping in slow motion.
"I know right, it's hilarious!" Erin replied.
I rolled my eyes again, "Let's get moving imbeciles, or I'll leave you to the Vampires!"
Everyone immediately stopped laughing and shot to their feet, picking up the scraps of wood that we'd collected for the fire.
"You guys really can't take a joke can you?" I grinned.
"Hey I-" I cut Quartz off.
"Rhetorical question." I spoke monotonously, like a robot.
"Yeah, whatever, go! The sun's setting!" Erin hurried.
Quartz gave me a gentle push that made me stumble lightly, then I hurried off to where Adam and Robin had set the camp.
"Robin, Adam!" I hollered as loudly as I dared, for the sun was now noticeably sinking below the horizon.
"In here," A fern clump whispered back at me, and I jumped from the strangeness of it. I mean, wouldn't you be scared it a fern talked to you?
I beckoned to the girls trailing behind me. "In here," I told them, holding open a lichen curtain and they slipped in one by one.
"There is the wood you were asking for. Do you think that's enough to last the night?" I asked, tossing the wood on the floor in front of Robin.
"No," Robin replied with a worried frown on his face. "Can you get some more?"
"How about no?" I asked, rolling my eyes. "I ain't going out there in the dark, too bad, deal with it."
"Sometimes I wonder why I decided to join you..." Robin muttered quietly, but I heard him.
"What was that?" I asked, glaring daggers at him.
"Nothing..." He shrank away from my terrible, boiling fury, a fury so hot that you could almost see it floating through the air... I'm kind of overdoing it, aren't I?
"Mmhhmm." I asked, raising an eyebrow and picking a splinter out of my finger. Did you think I was going to say picking my nose? You are disgusting...
"Oops!"
I turned round and Quartz gave a guilty start.
"He pushed me!" Quartz protested, pointing a finger at Adam.
"Oh wow Quartz! That's genius, it really is! Now we have to have someone watching out campsite, because you somehow managed to destroy a rock wall." I said, smiling grimly.
"Hey, to be fair the rock was crumbly!" Quartz pointed out.
"It's still broken," I said, gesturing the mess of broken rock that Quartz had caused when she collapsed the only rock wall of our campsite. There was a rather large hole where Quartz had fell, and it was probably big enough for Vampires to get through.
The rest of then wall crumbled away.
Well in that case, I guess that wall is definitely big enough for the Vampires to get through.
MORAL OF THE STORY:
Do not bring clumsy goons(cough cough Quartz) to your perfectly good camping spot that will hide you from the Vampires.
