Nikki could see, from sitting beside a rather plump girl, whose stomach started rumbling that everyone, including herself was hungry, but she had other priorities rather that food. The plump girl, Michelle starting groaning in her hunger, and whispered, “do you think I could go and steal some from the monkey’s, because I am so hungry, and never had to stave like this in my life. My auntie fed me really well…” and Michelle finished to imagine the large portions of chips and a large hamburger. Nikki gave her a disgusted look. Sarah argued constanly until all the other girls decided to give up and five way to Sarah and they told her that she could make up a group of hunters to find food for them all.
When the meeting was finished, all the girls filed out of the shelter in order to catch the sun as the rain had stopped. Nikki went out in order for her too to enjoy the sun. She walked out relaxed, but as she walked outside, she could feel a chill run down her spine, almost as if, as if she could feel a presence around her. She decided to go and find out what this meant. She had wondered off several metres away from the shelters, and it was then that she saw a funny figure hanging down from the tree-top. She started screaming and sprinted back to the shelter as fast as she possibly could.
Hannah shouted as loud as she could in order to attract Nikki’s attention, but Nikki was still in utmost shock and recovering from her faint. Hannah asked kindly, “Nikki honey, what did you see to make, you, of all people, this frightened?” Nikki gave Hannah a desperate look, and whispered, “please don’t laugh if I do tell you, because I know that you won’t believe me…but, I DID see it!”
“What did you see darling, asked Hannah gently, and I promise not to laugh”, Hannah reassured.
“I…I saw a…a dead man who was hanging off a tree tied to a noose by his neck. It was terrifying, but you HAVE to believe me!” And Nikki started weeping again. Hannah could no longer stand this constant weeping and told Nikki that she would be back soon after she had found out what the others were up to.
Hannah was walking so fast to get away to stop the weeping sounds that she walked straight into Michelle who had been sitin on the grass moaning to the twins, Sally and Emily who had now become so board, that they had started to talk about their being back at home.
The two girls straightened their clothes as they slowly strolled off the plane. But, this time, they had both, along with the rest of their peers, made a conscious effort to try and look remotely girlish for some, or stunning. Despite the girlishness of many of the girls, they were all willing, all fifteen of them, to take part in a week lasting ‘job’ that they were going to be undertaking.
As soon as they had completed their immigration forms, they climbed onto their coach, which was to take them, not to the heart of Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur for shopping, but to the most unexpected areas of Malaysia, Taman Niagara, and the beautiful rainforest.
