"No, no, no... this isn't happening."
Her first instinct was to run, but she forced herself to calm down. She couldn't leave the others unaware. Swallowing her fear, she rushed to the bunk beside Kyle.
"Wake up!" Celine called out to Zara who slept on the lower bunk, vigorously shaking her to ensure she woke up. "Get up, now!"
"What the—Celine!" Zara grumbled, groggily swatting at her. "What's your problem?"
"It's the middle of the night," Lina muttered from above the bed, she had also woken up from Celine's loud call.
"Kyle's gone..." Celine simply said, getting the attention of the two girls. They both sat up immediately, Zara rubbing her eyes while Lina frowned. "Gone? What do you mean, gone?"
"I mean he's not here. His blanket is empty and I don't know where he is."
Lina rolled her eyes. "He probably went outside. Maybe he needed air or something."
Zara nodded in agreement, "Yeah, don't freak out. He's probably nearby."
