Liam

We were on top of the mountain and on the other-side. We had made it and now was the tricky route down. I looked down feeling ill, how high up where we again? It looked even steeper than the climb up.

Louis had explained they couldn't go around the mountain because it was more steep and crumbly. Also more people were known to fall to their deaths going up and around, they had to go up. Then once on the other side, down in a straight line.

We were just about to start the downward journey. We'd all packed and where ready to go.

Zayn walked up to me, he too looked down over the cliff's edge. He paled and gulped "Do we really have to go straight down? It looks so steep"

I nodded nervously. I walked over to Niall who was talking to Louis urgently.

"So aren't we going to get going?" I ask them.

Niall said looking exited "We just found a way to get down the mountain!"

Louis said dubiously "If it works"

Niall said "Louis is going to fly each of us down the mountain one by one, we couldn't do it while we were going up coz apparently going upwards in the air is way more difficult than going down, when you're flying that is"

Louis huffed "It is, I almost dropped Niall getting out of that creepy spider invested pit"

I raised my eyebrows "This gives me loads of confidence" I said dryly.

Soon we started out, Louis was right near the edge, even he looked a bit sick looking down. Harry was first to go down. Louis let Harry hold on to him, before anything happened I distantly remember Harry saying to Louis, well more like mumbling "Drop me and I'll haunt you for the rest of your life"

Louis gave Harry a impish grin before turning towards the edge. We all held our breath as Louis gave us a mocking sulute though I knew he was just trying to be brave, if this doesn't work then they would fall to their deaths...

Before any of us could say anything Louis jumped of the edge with Harry holding on for dear life. We rushed to the edge, my eyes widened in amazement as I saw Louis happily floating on thin air. Harry was on top of his back, he didn't look amazed, just slightly green and he had his eyes shut. I wasn't suprised as I looked down from our height, everything looked so small and I felt slightly ill and dizzy myself.

Zayn gave Louis a slight nodd and I said "See you soon"

Louis nodded and Harry opened his eyes and gave me a weak smile then nodded at Niall and Zayn before Louis looked more focused then they slowly moved down the mountain.

"What do we do now?" Niall asked me.

I shrugged "Now we wait" I said.

We all waited in tense silence. I hoped Louis would hurry up and I couldn't help but worry, what if something happened to them? I moved myself away from Niall and Zayn to think, I stood up on another rock and I climbed up it and looked into the horizon.

I could see the Maze Of Tests close by. It really was a maze. A maze of rocks and dead ends but I could see strange things moving in the rocks and was it me or did the maze now and again shimmer? Not shimmer as in sparkly but more like if you imagined something or if you were looking at a lake and the reflection in the water would ripple or shimmer? Like the maze wasn't even there?

Before I could think more about this I heard a noise from behind me, like the crumbling of rock?
I twisted around and behind another boulder slightly underneath me. I stared into big innocent eyes of a girl? She was watching us from her hiding place.

"Hey!" I yelled, illurting the others. I quickly climbed down a couple of rocks to get to her.

She looked startled that I'd seen her "Who are you?" I asked her frowning.

She then gave me secretive smile before suddenly her form became hazy and she disappeared just as Niall and Zayn got to where I was. She said only one word before she disappeared into thin air.

Zayn asked quickly "Whats going on?"

I frowned, confusion wrapped around me. Had I hallucinated?

"I'm not sure, I thought I saw...Never-mind" I said still frowning.

"Hey! Who's next?" We all jumped in surprise at Louis's voice who was lazily floating near the edge. We quickly walked over to him. Zayn stepped forward "I'll go next" He said braverly.

Louis held out his hand and Zayn took his wrist then as Zayn stepped of the mountain edge on to Louis, Louis sank slightly. Zayn held Louis tighter suddenly looking petrified and Louis muttered "Shit, you're heavy, how much do you eat?"

Zayn just hissed through gritted teeth "Just take me down Louis!"

Louis grumbled "Alright alright!" Then they slowly defended downwards. As I waited for Louis to come back up. Niall asked me about who I thought I saw. I didn't know...

Who was that mysterious girl? Though I sort of lied, she did tell me, who she was, well she gave me a word, a name before she left.

Alexis...
