Me:
reaching out to grasp des' hand.
Des:
I'm afraid, aren't you?
Septembermorn (way up ahead):
Comon' guys........those rocks and deep crevices are difficult but if you lag too far, you'll lose us....
Faith: (up with septembermorn):
If you guys go together and put all the weight of your packs down, it won't be as difficult.
Me:
Okay des, I'm scared, but we have to hold hands so we don't lose eachother. Cajun is waiting for all of us and the others are within sight we can't lose them.
Des:
Okay, if we trust eachother, we can try to do this.
(Des, reaches out and clasps my hand)
Me:
Wait up guys!!!!! We are having a hard time getting over this giant slippery and dirty rock....how did you do it??
Faith, Sept & others:
We climbed atop eachother's backs and we had a larger group. Wait here and we will get the supplies Cajun has and come back for you!!
Me and Des:
Don't leave us!!!!!!! We are scared......
Others:
Just hold together and don't slip off the path down into the deep murkiness below, we will come back and get you..
Me and Des:
Are Cajun's supplies strong enough to help us?
Others:
Yes, Cajun is the survivor, the wise one, with many tools we all us to get us down the road...
Okay, we'll wait. (huddled together, but holding hands tightly) We believe you.
