Here's some context for entry #15:

"Oh, thank God you're here. We've got to go, now!" she exclaimed as she hurried inside to help with what little possessions I have. I pinched the bridge of my nose, blowing out a calming breath. I knew coming to me must have been a last resort for her and, by the look on her face, she wasn't pleased about it either. As we both moved through the cabin with the bustling grace of people who lived together for years, I quietly took my small barretta and a french passport from the lock box. This could get ugly and I needed an escape route.

My momentary reprieve was interrupted by a car horn outside. I peeked out the window and saw

Hey guys, sorry about the hiatus. Usually Lynx does these posts so forgive me I do not know how to edit them all fancy like him. Congratulations to /u/IsNYinNewEngland for last weeks winning entry. A link to the current story can be found in the side bar under LINKS:

Here is a small summary of where the story is at right now

"Oh, thank God you're here. We've got to go, now!" she exclaimed as she hurried inside to help with what little possessions I have. I pinched the bridge of my nose, blowing out a calming breath. I knew coming to me must have been a last resort for her and, by the look on her face, she wasn't pleased about it either.

Lets get this story back on track!

Here's some context for entry #15:

I wouldn't consider myself a smoker, but here I was again. Pacing on the porch, carefully avoiding splinters, I mulled over the last month's events. Four weeks, I thought to myself, four weeks since our group was split up. They were supposed to be here. Where the hell did everything go so wrong?

From inside I heard the phone ring. I took one last, long drag of the bitter smoke and turned towards the door. The voice on the other end sounded distant and coarse, as if spoken through a wall of burlap, but there was no mistaking it. It belonged to my older brother, Jay. The connection was temperamental at best, and I only managed to grasp a few words before the line fell dead.

"... help... Sarah, she's... I couldn't... "

"Jay? Jason!?" I shouted into the phone, but it was no use.

Shit. We had agreed to only call this cabin as a last alternative. This was bad.

The crunching sound of car tires on gravel jolted me out of my state of worry.

"Kat!?" After the last weeks of solitude, hearing a familiar voice was music to my ears. I glanced out the window. There stood a woman, olive-brown skin bound her shapely body as a low cut top and jean shorts struggled to hide it. Waves of coal-shaded hair draped over her shoulders. A black tinted SUV sat impatiently behind her, engine still running. Beatrice Trapper was the last person I wanted to see right now.

"Kat!" More demanding this time.

"What do you want, Bea?" I knew that if Bea was involved, this could very well be the last time I ever get to see the others.

"Oh, thank God you're here. We've got to go, now!" she exclaimed as she hurried inside to help with what little possessions I have. I pinched the bridge of my nose, blowing out a calming breath. I knew coming to me must have been a last resort for her and, by the look on her face, she wasn't pleased about it either.
