Chapter Text
It was almost summer vacation, one month away and Anya can watch all the cartoons she can. However, there was finals that she loathed. She suffered tests after tests and she despised it all. But Mr. Henderson, had a surprised for them.
"A movie?" Anya asked.
"Yes," Henderson replied back. "You will all have the ability to create your own cinematic film. You can use anything out of your disposal, and the only limit is you imagination. But it must include architypes, film theory, and even symbolism." The entire class started sighs of reliefs and thank God for this. Then, Henderson pulled out a bowl filled with shredded papers. "You will be working on groups as well. When I call your name, please come up." He pulled out one name. "Anya Forger." Anya came up. "George Glooman," George came up. "Becky Blackbell" Becky stood with them. "Damian." and so on. "Emilie" "and Ewen" The groups all gather together and talked about what type of move they want to make. Anya was excited because not only was she gonna take a test, she was gonna work with Damian. This plan was gonna work and hopefully, she can make him invite her to his home.
"Hey Anya," Anya looked at Becky. "You alright?"
"Huh yeah." Anya said. "Anya was thinking about her movie idea. I would like to make an spy action movie, with me as the spy. We can use Sy-on boy's house as our head quarters, and my dad can-"
"No." Damian said bluntly. Anya was shocked to see her plan fall apart, all was lost now. "Anya! Get up from the floor!" Damian shouted. "I have an idea, I was thinking of doing this documentary about living off the land. We can showcase how we can be out in the woods and reconnect with nature for a couple of days and show off what we can do when we return to our primal roots."
"That sounds like a good idea boss man!" Emilie said.
"Yeah, I would love to do that." Ewen said.
"No thanks!" Becky said. "I don't want to live a couple of days out in the middle of nowhere, attacked by bugs, and bathing in the same river with animals."
"I don't want to go to the woods either," Anya added. "You never know what lies there."
"Shall we put it to the vote?" Damian said. "All in favor raise your hands." Ewen, Emilie, Damian, and George all raised their hands. "I think this is obvious."
"But do you guys even know anything about camping or living rugged?" Becky added.
"Nope, Anya does." Anya said, with her well known smile.

"Sure." Bill Watkins said to the pink haired girl.
"No!" Damian confronted the idea. "I will not share a room with him,"
"Its not a room, its a tent. And you have to live in it if you're gonna have to live of the land."
"Yeah off the land, not off a hairy gorilla."
"Damian!" Anya scolded.
"Hey! You know what?" Bill said.
"Hey guys!" Becky said. "Sorry to cut this little fight of yours but we have a project to work on."
"Sorry." The two of them said.
"But we can camp here in Ostania woods. Right here." Bill pointed at a grey map labeled ostania woods. The spot was close to rivers but far from civilizations.
"That grey patch of land?" Becky asked. "But, its so...what the word?"
"Ugly?" Anya said.
"Creepy?" George said
"No, its far from any city or town." Becky said.
"That's not even a word." Damian said.
"Well, to put good use of the project, we need to be far from civilization to make this work. and only collect the bare necessities if we're gonna survive for a week. Everyone got that?" Bill asked, they all agreed and began to gather their supplies. Anya was gonna get through this project then she could sleep and not worry about test until the fall. Anya left early in the morning and kissed her mom and dad goodbye. She kissed Bond as well waved goodbye to him
However, Bond had a vision. It was of Anya and her friend in the woods. Screaming, crying, in total disarray and a mysterious figure in the woods. Bond got up and tried to warn Anya but she was gone.
And so, the gang went to the woods. Unknown of what awaits them.
