Vi swallowed hard. There was no getting out of this, but they seemed nice enough. "I-I-um..where am I?" She winced at her own daring and waited.

Elizabeth sighed, swallowing a bit of a laugh.
"That's something I'd like to know myself."

Death sat on top of one of the roofs, watching the show. It's amazing what you can learn when you eavesdrop. Slowly and silently, she moved her body over so she could watch the rest of the show.

"You're in the mountains," Cammie told her gently, "in fact, on molnar mountain next to the main village."
"Oh!" Vi cried softly. "That's why there aren't any real forests then, since I'm on a mountain, I supppose." She was, if you couldn't tell, starting to relax a bit.

"Yes. We do appear to be at the level just above the tree line." Elizabeth said. She glanced across the little village square and noticed the woman from earlier sitting on top of one of the roofs.

Death glared and set herself farther back on the roof.

Elizabeth shook her head to herself and looked back at the other two.

"Are you on your own?"
"Ye-no...not on my own," Vi lied, "I got seperated from the others."
"Would you like to come with me?" Cammie asked.
"Oh-oh-oh...I-I um... No. No not really no. Not at all." Vi tried her hardest not to turn red. She was starting to feel trapped, and she didn't like it.

"You all right? You're acting a little strange." Elizabeth said, not realizing how blunt she was being.

" 'm fine," Vi mumbled, now deep shade of magenta. "Just-just hot ... I-I mean cold. Yeah. Really cold." She was all too aware of her stuttering, and she was stedely going a deeper shade of red.
"We aren't going to hurt you," Cammie told her gently, "and if you don't want to come, then that's OK, too. But please don't lie. You really aren't that good at it."
Vi,(if it was possible) turned an even darker shade of red.

Elizabeth looked at the girl in concern. "You don't look fine at all."

Vi was thinking desperatly of a way out now. Suddenly she pointed past the two women and screamed. When they turned she got up and sprinted away as fast as she could.
Cammie stared after her. "That was probably the weirdest thing I've ever seen," she commented.
Jackie jumped when a small girl ran all-out into her. THe girl stared up at her, frightened. "What're you lookin' at?" Jackie snapped.
"N-n-nothing!" Vi stammered. "I-I...have to go!!" With that she tried to slip past the girl, not succeding, she looked up in pure terror.
Jackie stared back at her for a moment, her eyes becoming strangly soft. "Will you help me? I need to find somewhere safe, where no one will find me."
"I don't know anywhere like that," Vi lied, managing to contro her stutters. She actually knew about an old cave where she'd been staying and trying to find out where she was. Then she saw the huge change in this girl's eyes, and continued, "well, I do actualy, and...and you can stay with me."
Jackie smiled broadly, "lead on!" She cried. This girl was going to let her stay!
Vi managed a half-smile and did.

"Everything about this world has been strange for me." Elizabeth commented.

"Yes," Cammie agreed, "but I suppose more so for you than me, as I studied history before I came here. But that is something that will always be strange to me." She shook her head and began heading back up to the village.

"Whereas I didn't get a choice about coming." Elizabeth answered as she walked with the woman.
