Chapter 2

"What happened?" I seemed to be the only one that could manage to spit out the words to say anything. "B-but, h-how." Charlie said, relived he could blurt out what was on his mind. "I'm dreaming, this can't happen, it's just, i'm sleeping. no no No NO! This can't be happening, what about, everything."
 I walked around in circles trying to convince myself this wasn't happening. " This isn't happening, it can't be happening." I mumbled to myself. "Would you, just, calm down, OK, this isn't going to help the situation."
" The situation! We don't know what the situation is." I pointed out the window, at the thick foggy forest that stood, still asleep, only meters away. " If only i had the Lab here i would really like to take some of there DNA to the Lab, just look at the size of those trees, there hundreds, no Thousands of years old, they have been here for ages. Do you not find this fascinating?"
"No i do not find this amazing o-or anything, do you even know what is out there? There could be monsters bigger than those trees, that will eat us!" I panicked slightly, my breath was hotter than it would normally be, and it burnt my throat. " Well can we at least go outside and have a look?'
"Fine, but we can't go that far out, and your staying with me!"
"Yes, thank you, i will i will." He didn't have to think about it, i was hopping the part where he had to stay with me would of thrown him off.


"Are you ready?" Charlie was eager to get outside, he couldn't wait to get a close look at what was out side. "Me, am i ready, one, am i ever, and two, you are the one that spent the last fifteen minutes gathering your equipment."
"So is that a yes?" He said, he was acting as if he was ten. " Yes." I started to walk outside. "Do you think we will need a rain coat?"
"Go!" I walked on, i  hesitated, i really didn't want to know what was out here. " OK." I opened the door. " Whoa." Charlie was blown over by the beauty of the forest that stood in front of us. I couldn't move, i really wasn't expecting this. It was amazing, i don't have the words. The ground didn't have grass, but a strange green moss that spread over like a blanket, it was soft and was almost , like memory foam. " This is incredible, But how?" I slowly looked over to charlie, who had his head so far back he almost fell back. " You're kidding me, right?"
"No." He said, i don't think he quite got where i was coming from. " That's the question i have been asking this whole time! And now you care!" Charlie didn't seem to hear me, He was watching a butterfly. It had a Bright vibrant neon pink, with neon yellow spots. " I haven't seen anything like it!" I walked off, trying to get my head around the whole thing. Then there was a crunch of leaves and twigs in the darkness. " Charlie, Charlie, there is something there! CHARLIE!" I took a big step back. " What, what is it?" He looked at me, i didn't move. " Come on, there is nothing to be scared of. Just think about it, this has been here the whole time, untouched, and we are the ones who discover it." He pats me on the back and walked into the house, admiring the DNA he held. I turned around slowly walking back not daring to look back. four red beaming eyes stare.  there was a growl. I freeze i didn't want to think about what could of made that sound, so i walked on convincing myself it was my stomach. the sun slowly faded behind the trees, and the moon crept up.
