Paige's POV
Brooke is amazing. She caught Mackenzie when she fell. She saved a life. I love that she is my sister. No doubt about it, Kenzie would've died. Whether it was the bear, ripping her to shreds, or that terrible fall off the cliff. But Brookie wouldn't let that happen. So here we are, all of us at the top of the cliff.
"Well, looks like the bear's gone." Nia said, and we all nodded. "Uh.... Guys!? It suddenly occurred to me that.... We have no idea where we are!" Chloe said. "Yeah, Chloe's right! We're off the trail, and we have no resources except for what's in our bags!" I said. "Maddie?" Mackenzie's quiet voice said. "Yeah, Kenzie-boo?" Maddie replied. "Are we gonna die?" Everyone was silent, and Maddie looked up at us. "Um..... No, Mackenzie. We will not die. And do you know why?" "Why?" Kenzie asked. Maddie did not hesitate to answer. "Cause we will not ever give up. No matter what, no matter how long were stranded out here, no matter how much food or water we have left, no matter who gives up or who keeps going. We WILL survive. Don't ever believe that for one second, every one of us will die. Because it's not gonna happen. Ok?"Maddie replied, and Kenzie nodded. "Ok." She said.
"Yeah, Kenz. You have nothing to worry about. We're all gonna stay together, and we're all gonna find the trail and go home." Kendall reassured Mackenzie. "Ok." Kenzie said. But it was obviously not ok.
