Mark felt relief as he was pulled up toward Alex and into the small cave. He held onto one of Alex's arms tightly and breathed hard. "Is it gone?" he said quivering.

Alex could only nod breathlessly. He'd been fueled by adrenaline alone, and now that they were out of danger's reach he felt positively drained. He slumped back against what he assumed to be the back of the cave -
- only to fall back and bang his head on the cave floor. He swore fluently - what a magnificent influence he was on innocuous ten year olds - and glanced back. He started in surprise.
The cave didn't stop, but actually deepened into a tunnel that dug its way into the cliff.

Mark continued to shudder just a bit. His adrenaline was wearing off as well.
As Alex cursed, Mark's eyes grew wide and he said, "Oooooooooo! You said bad words!" He then shook his head in disbelief.
His blue eyes shifted toward the long tunnel that extended into the cave. "What is that?" he said as he pointed.

(Sorry people, had a little nervous-breakdown about all my schoolwork but I'm here now  Haven't time for a long post, sorry  )
Chris only nodded as Nessa explained him which plant to find. Then he glanced at Jimmy for a second and ran off into the strange forest.

"That," Alex explained generously, "is a *beep* tunnel. By the way, don't say that word in front of your parents." He got on hands and knees and began crawling.

Jimmy watched Chris disappear into the thick jungle, leaving a very awkward moment between himself and Nessa.
"Well, this sucks..." he stated.

Mark scrambled after Alex slowly, since he could not crawl on his hands....because his wrist was broken. "Where do you think this tunnel leads?" he said curiously. Mark loved adventure only when it was something safe and fun.

Chris wondered in the jungle, his eyes scanning his surrounding for the plant which Nessa had indicated him to find. Only God knew where he had to find the plant in this strange forest which seemed to be situated in the Dinasour era. He felt a little uncomfortable by the upcoming dark and the thought of him wondering around in this dark jungle didn't appeal to him at all. Also, he knew that the longer it took him to find this bloody plant, the longer Jimmy and Nessa would have to be out there and Chris realised they weren't able to defend themselves in case anything would happen in the present situation of Jimmy with a half-paralysed body and Nessa with her sprained ankle.
Chris started to run harder making sure to leave marks on the path he created through bushes and high grass. But what Chris couldn't notice were the dark clouds which formed above the roof of leaves, which predicted only one thing: storm.
Perhaps if he had noticed, he would have made sure to mark his road more clearly, but probably he wouldn't even have taken off into the jungle..

((The plot thickens...))
"And now it's going to rain," said Nessa, exasperated, glad of something useless to say to break the awkward stretch of silence. "I wish Chris would hurry up - what on earth can be taking him so long?"

(( How could you expect a plant-noob to be back after 5 minutes of looking for a plant in a strange jungle?  ))
After a while it started raining and Chris felt like cheering when he noticed a green plant which sufficed Nessa's description. He collected enough leaves to satisfy her and by the time he wanted to return to the others he was soaking wet. He quickly stuffed some of the leaves in the pockets of his trousers and with the rest in his arms he started looking for his way back.
