Enid was almost relieved when someone else showed up and helped her pull Amnell from the muddy water. But she didn’t doubt the fact that she probably would have jumped three feet in the air had the other girl not been fighting her back as she tried to pull her out.

See if I help again. She thought lightly to herself. She understood the fear, the need to fight back even if the one you were fighting was only trying to help. Taking a deep breath, she fought the urge to look around her again. The hairs were standing up on the back of her neck as well as on her arms. She hated the feeling. She only wanted it to go away.

But when Amnell asked for him, she walked over and grabbed onto the other male, who was definitely heavier than the girl had been. But it seemed they were managing well with the both of them. Now, she was exhausted and wanted to go curl up into bed. Not like they weren’t very far from her house to begin with. It might not be a bad idea.

She was still afraid to speak, but she hoped that now something, no matter how small had passed between them and she could at least make comments without getting her head torn off.

“I don’t think we’re going to do much good in this weather. My house isn’t very far from here. We could all crash there. I’m sure I can make room for everyone.” She whispered, knowing that despite how low her voice was, she would still be heard. Though, the young woman had still refused to completely focus her gaze afraid of what she might see.
