The wind ran through their hair making it wave wildly as they fell down the drop.
The colors blurred together creating blobs of brown and green as the concept of shapes flew out the window.
A few screams could be heard escaping the throats of a few students while others were too surprised and shocked to make a noise.
Some held onto the person closet to them, if anyone was there, in fright. Others had nothing and no choice but to let the air and wind move and push their bodies aganist their will.
Seconds passed but it felt like an eternity to the ten students, never knowing when they will hit the unforgiving floor with a splat.318Please respect copyright.PENANAJhoW7fdBrp
Scarlett closed her eyes in fear, unsure what to expect. She was the first to fall and will be the first to reach the bottom.318Please respect copyright.PENANALkXCbtbyal
Scarlett's eyes opened in surprise when a loud splash attacked her ears as the icy water roughly pulled her down.318Please respect copyright.PENANAgO31yKeXZA
One splash.318Please respect copyright.PENANAghsZX0ljdg
Another splash. 318Please respect copyright.PENANAci8syVA15Q
A pause. 318Please respect copyright.PENANAhGhMwKBbpc
There goes another splash. 318Please respect copyright.PENANAGObcsuiSWU
As realization hit them as hard as they fell into a lake, they came to their senses and roughly swam to surface in a hurry. 318Please respect copyright.PENANADEwCq841R0
Heads popped up from underneath, breaking the once smooth appearance of the lake's surface. 318Please respect copyright.PENANAbiOy8fW56B
They looked around at each other as different emotions filled their eyes. The ones that have already fallen looked up to see their peers tumbling down them.318Please respect copyright.PENANAoLsUWmklgj
In frenzy, they swam away so they wouldn't be a landing pad for the others. Someone decided to swim to the shore, setting the example for everyone doing their best to stay afloat.318Please respect copyright.PENANAxGIVjJRAFO
One by one, they reached the shore and let themselves rest and remember to breath until eventually, all ten were safely on stable ground.318Please respect copyright.PENANAPqB7WAm7qP
Scarlett let out a long breath as she held a hand over rapidly pacing heart. She was sure she would died from the fall.318Please respect copyright.PENANAEb0bgL79Jk
She slowly looked at everyone before she looked down to see herself soaking wet along with everyone else. Her hair clung to her face and neck as her clothing lighten in color as it stuck to her body. 318Please respect copyright.PENANAuRymDhwfDm
Aiden looked around at their surroundings to where exactly they landed.318Please respect copyright.PENANAO0iWTYSMYV
They were in a small clearing that surrounded three sides of the lake. A few flowers were scattered about while grass grew everywhere. 318Please respect copyright.PENANABz25Bx4K4V
On the fourth side of the lake a monstrous wall of rock and dirt with a small edge curved over, breaking the straight vertical appearance. 318Please respect copyright.PENANAJRjTaNQnvs
Beyond the grass clearing stood an army of never ending trees of different heights in all the remaining three directions. 318Please respect copyright.PENANATEwzeWHZQq
Random bushes were scattered throughout the forest floor along with the peeking roots of selected trees. A few leaves, all different shades of green, occasionally littered the ground covering patches of grass like a blanket. 318Please respect copyright.PENANAuP79JXw27C
The sky was clear blue with a burning sun hidden somewhere by the outstretched branches.318Please respect copyright.PENANAJdxKMkESmo
Don had looked around for his brother and found him. He let out a sigh of relief and looked around at the forest.318Please respect copyright.PENANAq1n7wrradt
Destiny clasped onto the ground. "How did we make that?! How was that closet magic?!"318Please respect copyright.PENANA3FLnKPLLpG
Scarlett looked over at Daniel as she tried wringing the water out of her hair. "Not like Narnia, huh?," she joked.318Please respect copyright.PENANAUzkUk2iECi
Daniel rolled his eyes, " I think I'm dreaming. I must be and somehow you're all here. That's the only explanation."318Please respect copyright.PENANAjUGnP2xDUl
Madison rolled her eyes as she worryingly checked her music player. Aiden rubbed the back of his neck as he asked, "But we've never met before so how could you dream of us?"318Please respect copyright.PENANALKi7c28O3I
"Well...Fine you got me, but what is this place? I'm so confused." Daniel said.318Please respect copyright.PENANAOj75PywA9s
"I don't know but it's giving me the creeps," Crystal said looking around. 318Please respect copyright.PENANA2OjHVFFClT
Destiny had rung her hair out and stood up. "Well I don't know about you but I'm tired of being wet. It's kinda cold."318Please respect copyright.PENANAt4FP2AWelJ
Ava's eyes widened as she looked around in fear when Scarlett said, "This reminds me of all those horror movies in forests where everyone dies." 318Please respect copyright.PENANAitc2A6ZvSe
Aiden frowned as he cautiously looked around with a newfound paranoia. 318Please respect copyright.PENANAAGRu2ziY7L
Madison let out a small sigh as she removed her headphones from around her neck, "That makes us all feel safe, thanks."318Please respect copyright.PENANAj2fPUC0zgE
"Yeah, I feel a lot better. We are all going to die because we walked into a school closet. That will be interesting on our graves," Crystal sighed as she looked at the ground. 318Please respect copyright.PENANAnwZmcvn3z4
Riley gave a small shake of her head as she tried to comfort Ava. "That was stupid," Riley muttered under her breath.318Please respect copyright.PENANABlZCjpjYlL
Aiden froze for a second as realization washed over him. He looked back at everyone and with wide eyes, he asked, "Anyone going to find us here?"318Please respect copyright.PENANAsnBtpn3sSB
Madison placed her music player on the ground as she removed her soggy backpack from her back. "I doubt they'll look in a closet for ten kids," she said while looking down at the ground.318Please respect copyright.PENANAnyGIrE5Ms7
"Yeah..." Marley said as he looked at his hands. They were covered in dirt so he brushed them together which took some off.318Please respect copyright.PENANAOkAFZvN8nJ
Daniel squinted his eyes, "Does anyone feel a strange feeling?"318Please respect copyright.PENANAYRIFGbAeJ2
Madison looked up fro a brief second and said, "Probably from falling down multiple feet into a lake."318Please respect copyright.PENANASrZmsJSUaT
"No...It's something else. I don't know what it is," Daniel said.318Please respect copyright.PENANAxPU3yaohSA
Scarlett shrugged as she looked up towards the top of the cliff. "Shouldn't we make getting back our priority and worry about the later? We need to find a way back," she said and she looked up at the cliff.318Please respect copyright.PENANAuPm5kMBhMO
"And how do we do that?" Don asked as he looked around.318Please respect copyright.PENANACJFkfIbQgj
"Well..." Crystal thought for a moment. She opened her mouth but closed it. 'Bad idea,' she thought to herself.318Please respect copyright.PENANAMJdm9TSIzf
Ava hesitantly looked up towards the cliff and softly said, "I-It's too h-high for a l-ladder."318Please respect copyright.PENANAl1QU5e7orp
Scarlett looked back down at the small group. "Anyone have any ideas?," she asked.318Please respect copyright.PENANAPYvbgytoRa
Destiny shook her head, "No. We're going to be trapped in a world we don't know..."318Please respect copyright.PENANAAWm4uK8ipc
"It's perfectly fine..." Daniel said with a worried smile. 318Please respect copyright.PENANA5cXWtUjN79
Riley let out a small huff as she asked with a slight edge to her voice, "So you're perfectly fine losing your family and friends. Having no food, home, or clothing besides the ones you have on?"318Please respect copyright.PENANAOyUnQL1ofD
Ava tugged on Riley's sleeve as tears pooled in the corner of her eyes. "Are we stuck here forever?," she asked as she looked up at Riley with a saddened look.318Please respect copyright.PENANAfioleSbeS4
Riley softened as she softly patted Ava's head, "I'll get you out of here. Don't worry."318Please respect copyright.PENANAUa7DEqeLLR
Ava held up her pinky finger, "Promise?"318Please respect copyright.PENANAMeicAECqIW
Riley stayed silent for a second before she clasped her own pinky with Ava's. "I promise," she said with a small smile.318Please respect copyright.PENANAcuuJW79j50
Daniel, on the other hand, glared at Riley and opened his mouth. Destiny stomped on his foot. "Whatever you say, make it nice!" Destiny whispered as Daniel grabbed his foot. 318Please respect copyright.PENANAHWmUHPyKRY
Don smirked and said, "Well, I guess we better get to know each other. I mean we'll be working together so..."318Please respect copyright.PENANAMEov69jDEA
Crystal shrugged and looked around. She looked for a place to sit besides the ground. 318Please respect copyright.PENANA0IlQhdDBf9
She looked at her clothes. She then remembered her backpack wasn't on her back.318Please respect copyright.PENANADcMxIxaATZ
Her eyes widen and she dove back into the lake.318Please respect copyright.PENANAhqNVBN28TE
Marley flinched at the splash and looked to see what happened.318Please respect copyright.PENANAPFUk8l0JBQ
"What is she doing?!" Destiny said as she looked at the lake. She saw bubbles and couldn't help but to see what was going on. She walked to the edge and dove in.318Please respect copyright.PENANAVvoPLvrH9w
Scarlett frowned as she peered into the water to try and find the two girls. "I don't think they're going for a swim," she said as she started counting on how long they spent underwater.318Please respect copyright.PENANAKS0lXk5Dkx
Madison took her hoodie off so it would dry and threw it into the ground next to her. She pulled her backpack closer to her and started to look through her stuff in worry. 318Please respect copyright.PENANAQU8EEl31QY
Crystal's ears had started to hurt from the pressure of the water She could only see green fuzz but knew her backpack was there somewhere. Then, she saw a blue fuzz and reached her hand out. She grabbed whatever it was and swam up. 318Please respect copyright.PENANAfdDzNGqGAd
Destiny couldn't see anything since her eyes were closed.318Please respect copyright.PENANAl17cpshuCs
Scarlett grimaced when her counting continued. She wasn't sure on how long they were able to hold their breath.318Please respect copyright.PENANAURKJkcmRKG
Thinking the worse, she jumped in and opened her eyes in search of the two.318Please respect copyright.PENANAzUl8a9OiBt
The water was slightly murky from the dirt being moved and pushed around from the sudden movement of the students. 318Please respect copyright.PENANA7wuSvZq1I0
Scarlett swam faster until she spotted Destiny. She closed her eyes for a second since they started to sting but continued on, nonetheless.318Please respect copyright.PENANApzmFnZsGMd
Scarlett let go of her breath as she grabbed onto Destiny's shirt and arm.318Please respect copyright.PENANAViusdg8TEy
She quickly swam the rest of the way and let in a loud suck of air when her head broke through the surface.318Please respect copyright.PENANAlZzZpVe6IA
Destiny popped up from the water and gasped for air. Crystal had just come up after and tossed her backpack onto the land.318Please respect copyright.PENANA4z74pJguR0
Scarlett swam into land and let herself fall to the ground as tiredness overtook her.318Please respect copyright.PENANATE6Y7ykhkI
Madison pulled out her, now soggy, binder and tossed it down next to her. A torn paper brown bag landed next to the binder with a slush. A few pencils landed on top of the paper bag and mercilessly rolled off.318Please respect copyright.PENANAPHsVuvBgyo
Madison quietly prayed in her mind while she pulled out a smooth black case from deep within her backpack that still held other contents.318Please respect copyright.PENANAD6B04fre9i
Madison pushed her pack off and cautiously opened the case. She let out a small sigh of relief with the contents inside were still dry. 318Please respect copyright.PENANA2TXBNkdMam
Destiny quickly swam to the land and sighed. "I'm soaked now!" She crawled onto the ground and wanted to lie down, but didn't want to get dirt all over her. She stood up and closed her eyes. She felt warmness all of the sudden and heard someone yell.318Please respect copyright.PENANAv14z177Nnv
Her eyes snapped open and looked for the source of the yell.318Please respect copyright.PENANAVic8uEgrel
Daniel yelled as he saw half of Destiny on fire. He quickly ran to her and pushed her back into the lake.318Please respect copyright.PENANAPQuRqoI5jg
Destiny screamed as she felt herself fall back. Her whole body went underwater and she quickly snapped back up. She coughed and she yelled, "What did you do that for!?" She moved her hair from her face and glared at Daniel.318Please respect copyright.PENANAuoxknFKceK
Madison frowned as she shook her head in disbelief. "That shouldn't be possible," she said as she tried to figure out how part of Destiny suddenly burst into flames.318Please respect copyright.PENANAREkKhYc0iX
Riley cautiously pulled Ava further away from where Destiny was. 318Please respect copyright.PENANA3cxxJZFmxe
Destiny got up and said, "What wasn't possible?"318Please respect copyright.PENANALIlRxDBVq5
Crystal's mouth was wide open. "I wasn't the only one that saw that?!"318Please respect copyright.PENANAXyfheYeICx
"Saw what?!" Destiny yelled in frustration. "What's going on?!"318Please respect copyright.PENANAVMaIqQFfiQ
Marley had backed away some. He looked at the forest and debated on if he should run or not. 'Run!' A voice said in his mind.318Please respect copyright.PENANAwBZMD16g35
"No! I can't leave them!" Marley said aloud.318Please respect copyright.PENANANMjbUfVOfz
'Yes you can! Just run!'318Please respect copyright.PENANA5YTkpq5PN4
"No!" Marley held his head and yelled through gritted teeth. "Go away Matt!" Marley yelled.318Please respect copyright.PENANAHOhCbNQQFw
Riley looked over at Marley with a blank face and then proceeded to pull Ava further away until she was a good distance away from everyone.318Please respect copyright.PENANAeZ1dqvgxIH
As that was happening, Ava had an innocent look of confusion visible on her face.318Please respect copyright.PENANA5NTsNIJpsi
Aiden let out an 'um' as he looked over at Ava and Riley and then at Destiny and Marley. "Is it just me or is everything freaking me out, now?"318Please respect copyright.PENANAsyOF4ZIYTx
Madison pointed to Destiny. "You burst into flames yet there's no sigh of being burned which isn't possible!," she said as she lightly tugged on her short hair.318Please respect copyright.PENANAl4aBIA2O6p
Scarlett look over at Marley and carefully asked, "Who's Matt?"318Please respect copyright.PENANAc9PYsriw0j
"None of your business!" He snapped. "Stop Matt!" Marley said with a voice that sounded scared.318Please respect copyright.PENANAzXaeKj8W0R
"No! She's asking about business that isn't hers!," A scarier voice snapped.318Please respect copyright.PENANAjWVmCpksOv
"Matt stop!" Marley had yelled back and fourth in two different voice levels.318Please respect copyright.PENANAKDrBjjOy8V
Scarlett looked around fro a second before she looked back at Marley. "If we're going to work together, I'm pretty sure it became my business to know...," she trailed off.318Please respect copyright.PENANAX41IIID9Q7
"Flames?! What are you talking about?!" Destiny said as she rung her hair once more.318Please respect copyright.PENANAjJ4ySK5ny5
Madison put the black case down and stood up. "Exactly! It shouldn't be possible!"318Please respect copyright.PENANAy6zH8iM77T
She walked over towards Destiny and walked around her making it seem like she was analyzing her. "Can you do it again?,: she asked.318Please respect copyright.PENANA6JJaiEpOdj
"Do what?! Stop! This isn't funny." She said with a serious look on her face.318Please respect copyright.PENANAERPDoZYOrF
Daniel had started to get a headache from all the confusion.318Please respect copyright.PENANAxWsisDbbvU
Crystal looked at Destiny, "I don't know what just happened but it was weird!"318Please respect copyright.PENANAuMDdJVB3AK
Crystal looked around and found an old fallen tree. She walked over to it and sat down. She took her sweater off and hung it up. She looked at her peach colored tank top and sighed. "Ugh!"318Please respect copyright.PENANAvTyKqFjWlO
She got up and walked to her wet, blue backpack. She took it back to the tree and opened it. She went through it to see if there was anything that wasn't wet but found no luck.318Please respect copyright.PENANA7esM7KUwOU
She pulled out her lunch bag which contained two bags of chips, an apple, a fudge brownie and a water bottle. "This is all the food I have."318Please respect copyright.PENANAQUJtUJhNO9
Marley looked up at Scarlett, "Please don't, h-he's not very polite." He said in a scared voice.318Please respect copyright.PENANA2WmccoG0FH
Scarlett gave a soft smile. "Riley's not polite but we still deal with her," she said before she quickly screamed to Riley, who was a number of feet away, "No offense."318Please respect copyright.PENANAnroA306eR6
Riley gave a wave of her hand before she quickly flipped Scarlett off.318Please respect copyright.PENANAGOLVOLwrLV
"See?," Scarlett said with a small laugh.318Please respect copyright.PENANANRBP0CrX4M
"No, no, you don't get it! He's killed before! He hurts me!" Marley said gripping his hair.318Please respect copyright.PENANAbNDkxp6bk5
Madison poked Destiny's arm as she asked, "So you didn't realize that you combusted into flames?"318Please respect copyright.PENANA48fyhlWG8s
"I don't know! I don't even know what you're talking about! Just...," Destiny sighed as she walked to Crystal.318Please respect copyright.PENANA1UBJufDARF
Aiden blinked as he rubbed the back of his head in reassurance. "Let's talk about this later and find some shelter," Aiden said as he pointed to the sky. "It's going to get dark soon. We should make a campfire, at least."318Please respect copyright.PENANADcO5Xo8LND
Destiny sighed. "I don't want to be here!," she said to Crystal. Destiny then looked at some twigs on the ground. She thought for a moment. Then, the twigs burst into flames. Destiny let out a scream as she stood up and fell back. 318Please respect copyright.PENANApyvpXfd0D1
Madison walked to the twigs. "That's what I meant," Madison said with a small huff. "It shouldn't be possible for it to suddenly combust like that."318Please respect copyright.PENANAl3Pk24F01h
"I don't want to be here!" Destiny wailed as she got back up.318Please respect copyright.PENANAMjvy4m98O6
Aiden closed his eyes and yelled out, "Everyone just shut up and freeze!" He rubbed his temples as he spoke in slight annoyance, "None of us know what's going on here. We need to calm down and talk this out with each other normally."318Please respect copyright.PENANAKGvcqtT0nD
Scarlett turned to look at Aiden and gave a small nod. "He's right," she said before she looked over at Marley and apologized. "I'm sorry fro constantly asking. You can tell or anyone when you're ready."318Please respect copyright.PENANAmkzw8pruFA
Marley still had his hands grabbing his hair and curled up next to a tree, rocking back and forth. This caused Scarlett to stand off to the side, unsure of what to do.318Please respect copyright.PENANA2gH6RDT10H
