In reply to: ANOTHER E! SISTERS COLLABERATION 's message, "THREE TWITS UP A TREE - DREAM TOUR ADVENTURE" on 19:57:09 08/25/99 Wed

Hoping the fire would keep them warm, Erin and Dj huddled close to Stephanie.

Stephanie seemed to be fighting a demon. Every once in a while she would make let out a moan and act like she was having a conversation with someone. Erin and Dj were becoming concerned.

Looking around Erin was startled by the noise of a screech owl. Moving a little closer to the fire, the girls hoped that someone realised that they had gone missing.

"Dj, I scared and hungry. You think anyone knows we're gone". Erin asked as she jumped at another noise close by.
