Jake sighed, and then touched the ice and snow that were surrounding them. No, snow wasn't a big deal, and ice wasn't too strong. They could easily get out of here, it would just take some...days. "Yeah, hopefully days will be enough. Nobody knows how long we will stay here. Maybe it'll take months, who knows..."Jake thought, and sighed. He then turned around, and found his sister already awake. He smiled at her. "Morning, sister."

"Morning, Jake." Jessica quietly replied, and yawned. She then picked up one of the bags and took her laptop out of it. She turned it on, connected to the Internet, and to Facebook.

Katie was over-depressed. She couldn't eat, couldn't drink,couldn't do anything but sit on her chair and check Facebook. Her parents were really worried, and Katie was tired of Jessica's teacher. Yesterday she stayed whole day long in the school, explaining Jessica's teacher the situation. Teacher was about to leave Jess for a second year, but Katie somehow BEGGED the teacher to give few more days.
Now she was checking Facebook, and finally she noticed Jess. She was about to cry from happyness, cause all this was driving her crazy and insane.
"Jess? Look, I...I'm going crazy...Yesterday I had to stay in school for whole day long, begging your teacher to give you some more days...She was about to leave you, but changed her mind...Jess, if you at least understand me,please come back, cause if it will continue, I'll TRULY kill myself..."[/color]

[color=#0080FF]Jess readed the whole message and sighed.
"Katie...I'm SOOOOOOO sorry...Look, I know how you feel, but....But I can't go back now... Me and my friends are stuck in mountain. With basically no way out...

"WHAT?!?! Oh...Ok-ok-okay then... I'll try to help you as best as I can... But, but sorry if I'll fail..." Katie replied and logouted. She turned off the computer and layed in her bed, thinking.

Jessica finished reading, logouted, turned off the PC, and layed down, almost crying. "WHY?! Why do I have to KILL my close friend?! I see that she's SICK of it! God, that's MY problem, not hers! And she's...She's doing it for me... For ME..." she basically told herself, with tears rolling down her face. She looked at Dawson, who was sleeping next to her. She thought for a minute, then snuggled up to him and burried her face into his body. "I know, you aren't my love, Dawson, but I really need someone now..." she said quietly, and closed her eyes, still crying.


OOC: I almost cried myself while writing this post xD

Dawson suddenly felt somebody close to him. He sleepily opened his eyes, and noticed who it was - Jessica. "Um, hi Jess..." He only now noticed that she seemed somehow... Sad," What's wrong?" He asked her.
Johnathan noticed the scene. He quickly hurried up to them. " Jessica, what's wrong?" He asked, trying to act as if he didn't care about the fact she just snuggled up to his brother. "You okay?"
Annabelle yawned as she woke up. Completely ignoring her surroundings, she walked up to the bag, excepting to find some food... But found practically nothing. "What the...?" Annabelle stared at the bag that should be filled with food. "Thomas! Our food is gone!" She told him.
Thomas was already awake. He hurried up to the bag, but found no food. But... how...? We're the only live creatures here. That can only mean somebody from the group ate everything... Or something.

Dawson carefully listened, then awkwardly replied, "Well everything will be fine... No need to apologize by the way..." He told her.
Johnathan just glared at them and walked off. I'am losing her... He thought.

Ooc: Writers block -_-

Jessica stopped crying and looked at John. "Which one do I love? No...The question is...What am I doing? Breaking someone's heart?"she thought for few minutes, and even these thoughts weren't clear for her. She had many questions that she wanted to hear an answer for, but it wasn't the correct time or place to ask them. They were in extreme situatuion, not in Romeo x Juliet story or something like that...

She stood up. Weather wasn't very friendly to them, and she could easily feel how fastly they were losing fresh air. "Soon enough we will all go crazy here... Unless we will find a way out..."she thought, and looked around, thinking of something to do. Connecting to Internet and Facebook didn't sound like a good idea for Jess, cause she already felt guilty enough to not be able to write something to Katie... She knew that it wasn't a good thing to ignore a friend who did so much for her, not reply back or help her...How could she help Katie? By comforting her? No, that wouldn't help...Not at all...

She walked up to her brother, and put her head on his shoulder. After a few minutes, she said " I know, it's the question we all care about, but...What should we do?"


Jake looked at Jess and sighed. " I don't know, sister...we should try digging the snow, but...At the moment no one is thinking of what to do, so...We should just wait. That's all I can say..." he said, and "nuzzled" his sister, smiling at her.

Jessica smiled. "Maybe you're right..." she said and sighed. She didn't even care much about food, even if they didn't have any. Drink wasn't a big deal too: they could easily melt the ice even with their mouths and drink. She wasn't even sure if she wanted to reach the top of the mountain at all...All she practically cared about were exams.

She stood up and walked up to Thomas. "Any plans for getting out of here?" she asked calmly.


OOC: I'm so in a mood for writing xD

Ooc: I'am not xDDDD

"No. Not yet." Thomas replied. "The only idea I got is that we could dig the snow until we'll break free. But who knows how long it'll take." He added. "I also... Also think that the snow isn't so thick everywhere. I've noticed myself that there are thinner and thicker parts of snow surrounding the cave..."
"Maybe, I could split from the group and search for something?" Annabelle interrupted him.
"Well, yes. We already discussed that yesterday." Thomas replied, slightly irritated.
"No, I mean now. I want to go now. We have to do something." She said confidently.
"Well- fine. Okay. You can go." He told her. " We should start digging the snow soon. It would be pointless to start digging now, though." He informed the rest of the group.
Dawson raised his eyebrow in confusion.
"The weather is hottest in the afternoon, so it will be the time when it's easiest to get rid of the snow... Though, in this cold... The time doesn't really matter..." He told himself, and then sat on the ground.

Annabelle looked around, noticing the sad atmosphere. "So, I'll be going now." She said awkwardly. "Bye, I guess." She said, but still didn't walked off. She didn't knew why.
"Yeah." Johnathan said, "Bye." He didn't even looked at her. He was looking at Dawson. No, not looking, glaring. Then he glanced at Jessica. Then he looked at the ground. He felt hopeless and angry. But he knew most people here felt similar, though everybody had different reasons.

"Well yes." Thomas replied to the brunette female. He walked up to one of the bags, where they kept all of the gear. As he arrived, he picked up a small rock climbing knife. "These could definitely help us. " He made a small smile.
"I don't know Jake. You know, you could die or get injured, or something..." She made an awkward chuckle. She then glanced at the ground, and looked back at him. " I guess if you want to you could." She smiled gently and a little childlishy. " But yeah, I'am not sure what Thomas will think of this." She raised her eyebrow. "I mean, he's the tutor and all." She laughed.

"Thomas, I think it'll be smart to start as soon as possible. Why not now? I know you've mentioned that the weather is hottest in the afternoon, however, it's so cold out there. I doubt it will make any change." Johnathan spoke firmly, though quietly.
"I knew that. " He told him. He could see that Johnathan was excepting a longer answer, as to WHY exatcly they aren't doing anything, but he kept quiet.
"And?" Johnathan looked at him with a questioning look. He had no idea why Thomas wouldn't do anything. They were running low on food and whatever, or to be more accurate - had basically none. He excepted Thomas to begin digging the snow just as the snow fell on the cave. Why was he waiting?


Ooc: FINALLY I REPLIED. Yay.

Jake smiled at Anna, then at Thomas."Okay then...Can we go now?" he asked Thomas.

Jessica looked at Johnathan's and Thomas conversation. This time she had to agree with Johnathan. They were losing the time, had no weather, and no food. Why was Thomas waiting? They could have got out of here already, if not Thomas, who was waiting for some weird reason. She looked at him, looking as serious as possible. "Now, seriously...Thomas, why are we waiting? What's the point of sitting here and doing nothing? Is there anything that is stopping us? Please, answer us, Thomas..."she asked him.


OOC:YAY! I finally replied!!

"Yes, you can go now... But be careful," Thomas replied to Jake, and then turned to Johnathan and Jessica. " Never mind. Let's just start digging now. " He grabbed the rock climbing knife and tore it across the snow few times. "Help me." He commanded, not even looking back at them, as he cointinued digging. He felt as the snow was too thick there. He walked few steps to find a place with less snow surrounding them. As he though he had found it, he started digging again.

"Yes, yes, we will be careful. I'm not THAT stupid to get in a serious trouble. " Annabelle rolled her eyes, then looked at Jake, "C'mon, lets' go." She said, smiling, as she picked up a rock climbing knife and started walking back.

Ooc: Yay! LOL
