"Calm down. He'll show himself eventually. And after what he did to Alex there's no way Holiday would let him stay in camp." Jake said.
Jana nodded and took a deep breath trying to calm herself."You're way too calm about this." she said, looking at him from the corner of her eyes.
"Well, we better be heading back. Its already dusk now, and Im usre Luna is getting worried... Shoud we tell her about Oliver?" Jana asked.
"I don't see how we can't. She'll ask what we found and unless we lie we have to tell her we didn't find anything." Jake said, frowning a little after her comment about him being calm. He didn't really feel calm, he just wasn't going to explode in frustration like she seemed about ready to.
"Yeh i guess so. Fine, lets head back." Jana said, and walked back, Jake following her.
"So are we going to lie?" Jake asked, though he didn't really want to.
Jana sighed."I guess not. We shouldn't keep her out of the loop."
"I hope Alex doesn't flip. He's being pretty protective of her after waking up and this isn't going to be good news." He said.
"Yeah well, we just have to deal with it. Lets go." Jana said.((cabins? or do u wanna continue in thi section for a while?))
(I don't know that there's much more to do here though)
((good. to the cabins then))
Jake checked the compass again as he walked through the forest, Jana, Luna, and Darla following him.
"Ok, Jake. Which way?" Jana asked when they reached a divided path.
"........... Left?" He said, though it sounded like a question. The compass said to keep going straight so he wasn't sure what to do.
Luna bit her lip, "I feel lost already, no a-fence Jake." She glanced around realizing how everything looked the same.
"I'm sorry but this is harder than it seems." Jake said, trying not to get cross.
"Hpmh. Well, I told you to let me see it but you wouldnt let me. Lemme see it now." Jana said reaching for the compass.
"Fine but when you drop it at the first sign of trouble I reserve the right to say 'I told you so'." He said and handed it over. "It's not like the thing gives turn by turn directions you know."
Luna watched the two of them and sighed, she hoped they would find the Oliver-look-alike before the spell wore off.
Darla patted Luna's arm. "Don't worry Luna. We'll find him."
Luna smiled and nodded, "I hope so." She looked out at all the trees and felt lonely; she didn't have Nyx and Kiki in her stomach anymore; it was like part of her was missing now.
"That sounds slightly pessimistic." She said in a sing song voice.
Luna giggled slightly, "sorry, I'm just worried," she told her.
She grinned. "It'll be fine."
Luna nodded to Darla with a small smile, "what way are we headed?" she asked Jake.
"Ask Jana." He said, sulking. His male ego had been wounded.
Luna held back a girl's rule smile and looked ahead to Jana, "do you even know how to read that?"
Darla giggled. "I didn't think it was that hard." She said.
"you never know," Luna smiled, "even the amazing Jana could have troubles with reading something so simple," she joked.
Jake grumbled a little.
Luna giggled, "I'm sure you knew what you were doing, Jake," she smiled sweetly at him.
"Don't butter me up now." He muttered. Darla giggled.
"aww, Jake. You know I think your awesome," she said in a childish tone.
"Yeah yeah yeah." Jake muttered moodily, still sulking.
Luna hugged him, "cheer up!" she pulled away and smiled, "don't be so glum."
"I'm not glum!" He said.
Luna jumped back slightly, "okay, don't have to yell at me.." She said in a quieter and more afraid voice.
"He didn't mean it." Darla said, patting Luna's shoulder again.
Luna nodded slightly, "I know..." She whispered and watched him. She wished Felicia was here.
"I wonder how much longer it is." She said aloud.
Luna shrugged, "who knows, I just hope were not going around in circles..."
"Jana has the compass and it shouldn't lead is in circles." She said, a slight frown.
"Ya, I know. I'm just worried... We've been walking for a wile.." Luna said, looking at all the trees around them.
"Jana are you sure you know where we're going?" Jake asked. Darla looked at Luna. "It is getting late." She said, looking at the sky.
Luna hugged herself, "should we set up camp or something?" She asked then looked around, "anyone bring a tent?"
"I can conjure one up." Darla volunteered.
Luna smiled, "that would be awesome!"
She grinned happily. "Should we call Alex?" Jake asked. It was getting a little late.
Luna thought about it, she was going to say no when she remembered how protective he had became again, "ya, we probably should.."
"Ok! I got it! This way guys, i have a strong feeling about this." Jana said, pointing in the direction of the arrow on the compass, and began running slowly."Well wht are you waiting for? Hurry up." Jana said, motioning for them to follow.
They all looked at each other and shrugged, then followed Jana.
((lets stay out here for a little while, I dont wanna find him just yet. This could be fun! We're always indoors))
"What? What's gone?" Jake asked
"The scent, the smell... i lost the trail. It ends here and... we were led on a wild goose chase. I bet that bastard was just buying some time so he could escape faster. SHIT! We were so close!" Jana screamed.
She transformed back into her human form.
