Lisa had dispatched a different soldier to go to the wreckage but
she was angry. It was late now and now she couldn't get to the bank
without seeming suspicious. She huffed angrily and went back to the
base. She sat on her cot and leaned back against the wall. She
wrote in a small journal she kept to keep organized and write down
her thoughts.
I decide to get up. I grab my crunches and head for my quiet
peaceful spot. Only I know where it is so no one besides my friends
can go there. I cross a little stream and see some minnows and I
say to myself, Man I wish I were all chill like them. I finally
make it to my spot, I set up a blanket and sit down. I take a deep
breath in then lie down. The spot is on a cliff over a huge river.
Sometimes I stay here for hours and forget to come back at night. I
turn on my radio and grab my plasma gun and shoot it in the air so
the others know where I am. I tell myself maybe if I stay here my
problems will go away and I won't mess up anything. I then fall
asleep... Whew what time is it? Oh man the sun is already setting.
I should get back to base. I grab my crunches and head back to
base. I keep hearing wolves in the distance so I hurry back.
Finally I thought I would be in those woods forever. I wonder what
the others are doing.
