Riley

I flung open the door to the cabin.

"Anne." I called out for her in desperation as she was nowhere to be seen.

"In here." She whimpered from the bathroom and I raced alongside the beds lining the room and into the bathroom.

I quickly scanned the bathroom and found her lying on the floor by the sinks there was water all over the floor and it had soaked through her red trackies and grey hoodie. She had her back to me and I dash to her side, kneeling over her trying to find out what was wrong. She was shivering, but nothing stood out.

"Anne what's wrong." I asked sounding panicked. She slowly rolled onto her back keeping her hand across the left side of her face.

"I slipped." She stated, obviously in pain. I didn't know what to do, so I just watched her as she started to sit up.

When I came back to my senses and realised what she was doing I put an arm around her back to help her up. Swiftly I pulled her into a sitting position and sat her up straight, in front of me. I realised my mistake when she started to sway on the spot and for the first time she moved her hand away from her face to try and steady herself by reaching out for something to hold.

I didn't pay any attention to her face at this point, I was far too concerned as I watch her try to grab the underneath of the sink to stop her self from falling, but it was too far away and she looked like she was going to slump back to the floor any second. I reached out for her instinctively, wrapping my arms around her as I brought her into my chest. I held her close trying to help her as she shut her eyes. I assumed that she was trying to overcome the wave of dizziness that I was sure she had been hit with.

I just held her there for a moment burying my face in the top of her hair, inhaling her scent. I pulled away guiltily and looked down at her face below mine and I was shocked to see her eye and cheek on the left side of her face red and beginning to swell. Her eyes were still closed; she hadn't moved an inch in my arms. I was suddenly overwhelmed by worry.

"Anne, Anne can you hear me?" I shook her gently praying for a reaction.

Warren

I'd just heard Mitzeee scream and was racing towards her when Doug started yelling my name. I turned to look at him and he continued to yell.

"I think I've found him. I've found Seth." He finished, then produced a rope and held it out in front of him. When he could see that I made no attempt to move towards him he continued.

"Quickly, I think he's hurt badly." I glanced back at the cabin before I started running towards Doug who started running in front of me to lead the way.

"I heard shouting," Doug told me as we ran through the woods, "like help but I didn't know where it was coming from but when I got here it just kind of stopped so I ran back and got the gear." He stopped beside a big drainage hole. I looked down into it and it was pitch black.

"Have you spoken to Riley?" I questioned.

"No, we need to find him." Doug spoke, panicking slightly.

"No, we deal with this first." I told him roughly.

"His brother could be down there." I grabbed the front of his jacket roughly.

"We deal with this first; got it."

"I don't want to do this Warren not now."

"Give me the torch." I demanded and strode back to the hole. I shone it down looking for anything that would suggest Seth was down there.

"Oh my god, that's his t-shirt." Doug pointed to a dark piece of fabric which indeed supported Seth's name.

"I'm going down there." I said not wanting to waste another minuet. Doug tied the rope around the tree and I tied it around my waist.

"Be careful, ok." He said before I started lowering myself into the hole.

Mitzeee/Anne

I sunk down the front door to the cabin holding my face in my hands. The right side of it was burning and I knew there was no way I would manage to cover it up. What could I do? I never wanted the guys to find out what he had done and I knew Warren wouldn't want them to know either.

I started trying to think of ways in which I could have done this accidently but most of them were so far fetched nobody was going to believe them. The best one I could come up with was that I slipped in the bathroom, I just had to make sure that there was water on the floor before Riley came walking through the door. I knew he was stood just on the other side of the door with Warren. I could hear them talking but I wasn't paying attention to what they were saying.

I stood shakily; holding onto the bed next to me to keep me up right. Slowly I made my way down the room listening out for the end of their conversation not wanting to get caught anywhere but in the bathroom.

I finally made it to the bathroom and started running the tap. I grabbed a cup of the edge of the sink and started filling it over and over with water before emptying repeatedly onto the floor. It wasn't long before most of the floor was soaked with water and my alibi complete.

Then an idea struck me, if I had this 'accident' with Warren out side talking to Riley nobody would be suspicious of how it happened. Lowering myself to the floor I turned my back to the curtain and lay down on the soaked floor. The water soaked straight through to my skin causing me to start shivering.

I then let out a shrill scream confirming that I had just fallen and then lay in wait for Warren and Riley to come and find me. I had no idea if my scream had worked and sounded like I had fallen, I just hoped I could get away with it. I heard the door swing open and hit the wall behind it.

"Anne." Riley called out for me. He sounded panicked and I started to believe I could get away with it.

"In here." I whimpered hoping that my voice came out pained. It must had because Riley came running long the cabin and into the bathroom.

He stood in the doorway for a second probably taking in what was in front of him before he came and kneeled beside me. He seemed to be checking me over and when nothing jumped out to him he asked.

"Anne what's wrong." He sounded panicked and my heart jumped when I realise he cared. I slowly rolled onto my back keeping my hand across my face, still afraid to show him the mark I could feel bulging beneath it. It was pulsating now and I was beginning to feel sick.

"I slipped." I said making a move to sit up slowly. That's when I felt my head start to swim. I wanted to fall back to the floor anything to stop everything moving in front of my eyes but Riley had different ideas as he pulled me sharply into a sitting position. I could feel myself swaying and I shut my eyes tightly hoping for the feeling to pass; but it wouldn't. I felt so light headed and started to fall and I was sure that I saw going to hit the floor but suddenly I was in Riley's arms. He held me to his chest and I let darkness consume me.
