yippee here you go

I am so sorry (just kidding I'm not >:))

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I paced through the small clearing, biting my nails. Lauren's condition was getting worse, and the others still hadn't returned yet, even though it had been an hour. Cleo was annoyed, Tiff was stressed, I was worried, and Lauren was still fricking unconscious. no one was doing great.

Tiff sat on her knees next to Lauren, trying to get a sliver potion down her throat without her choking. I crouched, easing open her lips. Tiff gave me a grateful smile as she poured it down. The sand witch briefly glowed, before shifting slightly. She slowly opened her eyes and groaned, closing them again. "what... happened?"

"You saved us, Lauren. but your spell drained all your energy. don't move," the nature witch added as Lauren quickly sat up, wincing. "You took quite a hit." Cleo, finally noticing that their friend was awake, rushed over. "hey, hey, slow down." they said as lauren tried again to sit up. "or I'll have to hex you." she chuckled before noticing the glares me and Tiff were giving them. "too soon?" "well, no shit Sherlock."

They opened their mouth to snap back, but Lauren interrupted. "if you two start fighting, I will flood your internal organs with sand until you can't breathe." she laid back down, smiling at the shocked looks on our faces. I was not expecting that.

The sand witch quickly glanced around. "where are the others?" we all exchanged glances. "they... we don't know." Tiff admitted. "what do you mean, you don't know?!" "we mean," Cleo snarked, then took a deep breath. "we mean, they went out to look for a cure for the potion and they haven't come back." they continued in a nicer tone. "so... they're missing?" "kind of."

Lauren sighed, rubbing her head. "how long was I out for?" before anyone could respond, I sensed something. I turned around, sniffing the air. was that...

Smoke?

"Guys, do you smell that?" Tiff perked up. "yeah, is that-" I could suddenly feel the air getting warmer by the second. I spun around. behind me was a fast stream of lava, moving our way. my stomach dropped at the lime green light it seemed to emit. 

"Go, go go!" I watched as the lava quickly lit the trees ablaze, a wall of flicking green flames. out of the corner of my eye, I could see Tiff stare in shock at the incoming threat, before grabbing Lauren's arm and dragging her up. She stumbled, still not fully recovered. Tiff quickly looked around, her face lighting up at the sight of a couple of yellow flowers on the edge of the small water stream. pulling out four bottles, she picked a few petals, dropping them into the bottles with the water. she fumbled in her satchel, grabbing her wand and a familiar red plant. nether wart.

She shoved the nether wart into the glass bottles and tapped them with her wand. the water bubbled, settling as a shimmering orange liquid. The purple-haired witch tossed me a bottle before drinking another and handing the others to Lauren and Cleo. I quickly chugged the potion, feeling a familiar warmth spread from my hair to my feet. This must be fire resistance. 

I turned at the sound of panicked grunts. Cleo was trying to undo the cork on the bottle, as they stood in the path of the lava that was inches away from the zombie. "Come on, come on," they mumbled as the lava inched closer. I quickly ran over, shoving the time witch out of the way. I could feel the lava flow over my body, burning the tips of my hair. I could hear someone scream, but who it was was a mystery. someone grabbed my arm, pulling me to the exit. all I could feel was pain.

pain.

pain.

pain.

as the ringing in my ears grew louder, I could see the stiched-together green arm pulling me with them. I could hear a faint "Stay with me Pris" before everything went dark.
