Rescue: Part 4

She soon felt the warmth of someone next to her and she knew it was Katie. Amelia took a deep breath and sat up, it was time to plan their next move.

“There has to be something we can do,” Susan exclaimed exasperated.

“I’m out of ideas. We have done everything, there is no new way to bring her back to life,” Amelia said defeatedly.

“Can’t we reuse an idea?”Katie asked.

“That wouldn’t make for an interesting story,” Amelia commented shaking her head.

“Gosh Katie,” Summer said attempting to lighten the mood.

Amelia laughed slightly.

“I have one last idea,” Maggie murmured.

“What?” Amelia asked urgently.

“Well it is a long shot,” Maggie said.

“Tell us,” Amelia demanded.

“The...” Maggie began.

“Shaman on the Mountain!!!!!” Amelia and Maggie finished together.

“What????” Summer, Susan and Katie chorused.

“The Shaman on the Mountain lives on Mount Lefroy in Canada. He was a rich entrepreneur but he was breaking a lot of laws in the process of making his first trillion. His girlfriend got mad at him and betrayed him to the government. His punishment was he was exiled from the U.S. He fled to Canada and became a Shaman. Shamans practice medicine and spiritual potions. He can contact the spirits and make a potion to revive Lauren,” Amelia explained.

“Cool,” Summer muttered taking everything in.

“Yay!” Susan cheered.

“Katie your gonna have to drive,” Maggie told her.

“Road trip! Road trip! Road trip!” Susan and Amelia chanted.

Summer and Amelia picked up Lauren’s lifeless body and placed it carefully in the trunk of Katie’s car, which Amelia had teleported here.

“I feel kind of like a murder,” Amelia commented giggling.

“I know rite??!?!?!” Summer said laughing hysterically.

“I call shot gun!” Amelia called and ran and hopped into the passenger’s seat.

Susan, Maggie and Summer loaded into the backseat and Katie into the driver’s seat. Katie revved up the car and they were off.

The car ride was loads of fun. Amelia was the D.J. which implies some very interesting music being played. They all talked and laughed as if nothing were wrong.

Finally, after a few hours of driving they reached the cave where the Shaman resided.

They all got out of the car, Susan and Summer lugging Lauren’s body.

“Ew why do I have to be on body duty again?” Summer complained.

“You volunteered dummy,” Amelia said laughing.

“Oh right, well I didn’t think you would let me. I thought someone would say you already did it and take the body and I would get the brownie points for offering,” Summer said.

“That’s what you get for trying to get brownie points,” Katie shot back.

“Oh like you never try to get brownie points,” Summer retorted.

“Oh will you shut up,” Susan requested pointedly.

They reached the mouth of the cave and Amelia gazed through the gloom trying to see anything and everything. “Hello? Anyone there?” she called into the darkness.

“Enter,” a creepy, low voice replied.
