All Chapters of I'm Ready To Take It All: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Author's point of view... The sky gradually darkened, and the forest’s dim light became even fainter. Thea glanced at the sky and hoped that everyone would remain safe through the night. "This is the spot," Aaron announced as they reached a small platform, studying the map. "It’s a transfer point and the best place to set up camp. There’s a town nearby where we can resupply tomorrow. Everyone, find a good place to pitch your tents now before this area gets crowded." Soon the other hikers joined them to set up their camp. The teachers, however, had big tents whereas all the others brought small ones. Their tents occupied almost the entire platform. Mark and Kevin had already taken out their tents. Mark approached Aaron and Thea, saying, "Kevin and I will head to the town to buy supplies. You two stay here and set up your tents." Kevin hurried to them and asked, looking at Thea in particular. "Do you need anything? I will buy it for you" "No need. I have everything t

Author's point of view... Thea was the first to stand up. Lily didn’t expect that it would be Thea out of all who would believe her, and neither did the rest of the group. Thea stood right beside her and said very seriously, "Let's go, show me the way..." Everyone was dumbfounded. "You really want to go back? Lily probably saw something and thought it was a leopard like last time. She was scared silly. When she yelled, we all got freaked out and ran, only to realize later that we were lost. If Aaron hadn't come looking for us, we’d probably still be stuck out there," Serra said. "So, there is no leopard?" Thea said, raising her eyebrows. Her words triggered Lily and she instantly smacked back. "There is a leopard in there!" Lily was getting frustrated and said to Thea, "If you don't believe me, let's go, I'll show you!" Thea replied calmly, "Okay." Lily was determined. She wasn't about to back down when it came to proving her point. Bravely, she led Thea toward the

Author's point of view... Aaron pulled away and stood there flustered. His eyes, wide and a flicker of shyness in them. Thea looked at him and his flustered face. What's wrong with him? Wasn't that just a friendly hug? What's that big of a deal...! This boy is really weird. Thea thought to herself. As Maria, she often hugged those little elves who followed her everywhere. In fact she sleeps hugging them as her pillows. Wasn't it similar to that? Don't tell me, he never hugged a girl like that... Exhaling deep, she broke the awkwardness between them. "Why were you so worked up, I have some tricks up my sleeves. Many wild animals can’t climb trees like we humans can." Aaron narrowed his eyes, forgetting about the embarrassing moment just now. "Leopards *can* climb trees," Aaron replied coldly, still a bit flustered. Thea moved aside and added, "Actually, not that one, as it was injured" Thea said with a teasing smirk, making him frown but ultimately let it go. He took a d

Author's point of view... "Thea, what happened? Will he be okay?" Thea had nothing to say. She looked at Kevin on the ground. He turned pale. The bleeding inside his body had increased and it was surely not a good thing. Without answering Aaron, she screamed in her mind. "Fine...! I will bind that whatever you wanted...but just please let me use your dragon pearl to save that innocent boy" Thea cried out urgently. Mike smiled. "Oh...sure right away " "What's wrong, Thea?" Aaron's worried voice smacked Thea out of her mind, "What's going on? Why aren't you responding? Is there something wrong with Kevin?" "Thea...!" Aaron pulled her hand and poked her with his restless questions. Though she had somehow convinced Mike to give her a part of his dragon pearl, she can't possibly tell them about the magical cure. "Don't worry he will be fine" she replied after a brief pause, assuringly. "Just see that the help arrives early" she said hurriedly. Aaron nodded and was a

Author's point of view... The group settled in one of the empty tables and ordered a variety of food. As they were waiting for the delicacies to arrive, Thea heard Mike grunt something in her mind. "Be careful...!" A water bottle flew over to Thea. It just missed Thea's head, not because the one throwing had misjudged the distance between them but because Thea had sensed it coming and instantly bent forward to dodge it. "Bitch...I finally found you..." A vicious voice of a girl reverberated in the hall. Thea, Aaron and Mark were shocked. They all turned their heads to look at the figure causing trouble. Thea's eyes narrowed. "Margo...!" she mumbled as she recognised the girl with Anaconda tattoos spreading all over her hands, walking over towards them. However, both the boys stared at her blankly. They obviously didn't know who that trouble maker was. "Thea, Do you know her?" Mark asked, a bit surprised. Margo had the appearance of a thug, a trouble maker. Though he never
