Forsaken At Camp Cretaceous

Episode 8: Stuck

"Watch out!" Bella yelled suddenly, grabbing Yaz's hand and moving it quickly. Yaz tensing at the sudden physical touch, her entire body freezing and Bella made the gyrosphere dodge the nature obstacle in the way. That was... a quick reflex. Isn't Bella some spoilt brat? Why does she have an athletic response time?

Yaz thought to herself before jumping as she accidentally drove the gyrosphere off course. Sending them both rolling over the hill, tumbling down and crashing into the fallen tree. Bella groaned, drops of blood sliding down the side of her face. "Ugh... Are we... alive...?"

Yaz rubbed her head. Both of them were hanging from the gyrosphere being upside down. Yaz tried to move the joystick, but nothing was happening. The gyrosphere was out of power. "Just great..."

"What happened Yaz? There was nothing on the trail for you to freak out like that?"

"I don't know." Yaz didn't want to admit that she jumped at Bella touching her shoulder. It made Yaz sound weak in her own head and she didn't want to sound weak.

The harness opened with a click, Bella crashing into the gyrosphere and sitting up with holding her bleeding head. Yaz looked concerned, hand patting for the clasp to release her. Landing next to Bella, hand touching her head. "Let me see where you're bleeding."

She was trying to see with the shadowed forest and the cloudy skies, making it hard for Yaz to fully see. Blood smeared on Yaz's fingers as she was trying to look at the injury. "We should find the others."

Bella spoke, Yaz nodding in agreement. Her body turning, pushing against the door. Opening it and tumbling out of the gyrosphere, Bella crawling out of the gyrosphere. "You good to walk Bella? No dizziness or fuzziness? Head injuries are no joke."

"Yaz. I'm fine." Bella smiled at Yaz, at her concern. It's much better to see this concerned side of Yaz, than the shut off side that the rest of the camp sees.

"Help! Can you hear us? We're stuck... mudhole! And we're sinking!" Brooklynn's panicked voice was heard over the comms for the rest of the campers. Yaz looked around, trying to figure out where they were in the forest.

"Yaz? Bella??" Sammy's voice asked out, Ben no longer driving in their gyrosphere. The boy shaking in fear. She had stopped the gyrosphere in front of Yaz, just inches from hitting her.

"Yaz! You're okay!" Sammy took off her harness, jumping out to hug Yaz. The athlete looking uncomfortable as Sammy hugged her, Sammy talking about how worried she was about Yaz.

"Bella- you're bleeding." Ben said shakily, pointing at Bella and Sammy looked over at hearing that. Letting go of Yaz and jogging over to Bella, "Doesn't look like it's too bad. Ben! Do you have anything?"

"I've got ace bandages." Everyone looked at Ben, surprised. Ben looked up, holding the roll of ace bandage. "What? You asked."

No one couldn't argue with that, Sammy did indeed ask... Yaz quickly took the bandages, moving over to wrap around Bella's head. Ben made a small huh sound. "Looks like Yaz made a friend."

"Yea... looks like it." Sammy said with a small pout, she wanted to be Yaz's first friend in the camp fam. Yaz was checking over Bella silently, watching her reaction time to make sure she didn't have a concussion. Ben asked, "So what happened to you guys' gyrosphere?"

"It crashed." Bella said, lightly knocking the side of her head with a grin. "That's where I got this. But did you guys hear Brooklynn?"

"Yea, we need to find them." Sammy spoke, determined with a nod. Ben looked scared, nervous about if they were okay or worse... Sammy was trying to reach out to Brooklynn through the comms, trying to get a response as Yaz was climbing into the gyrosphere. "Come on."
