The short cut (journey to the west).

         Abel and Jack was off to continue their journey.
"Thank you very much for your hospitality", said Abel.
" I should be the one thanking you ",said the ghost.
" I will miss you little ghosts",Jack said to the little ghosts.
"We will miss you too Jack", said the little ghosts.
Then they continued to walk.
" I wonder how they are at home ",said Abel.
" I wonder how Gabriel is ",said Jack.
" Gabriel is your favorite right ",said Abel.
" don't be ridiculous ",said Jack.
" oh admit it, you care so much for Gabriel more than the rest of us and you tough as if you don't care at all",said Abel.
"That's not true, I just have this feeling that Gabriel is in trouble", said Jack.
" that's exactly what I am talking about ",said Abel.
" why must every thing be about favorite? ",as Jack asked the question he realized that he was in a mist, every where was white,no one could see each other.
" Abel ",Jack said but Abel was no where to be found.
" Abel where are you,where did you go?",shouted Jack.
He walked and he felt that he step on something, he raised it up and it was someone's skull. And he shouted and threw it away.
"Where am I?,where is Abel?,is this my end?", he asked himself.
" Abel where are you? ",he shouted.
Just in that very spot Abel was,but they couldn't see each other and couldn't hear each other.
" Jack ",Abel shouted at the top of his voice .
" Jack where the hell are you?, don't play with me ",Abel shouted.
" he was here, one second and was gone the next,where could he be?",he asked himself.
"Abel, what are you doing here?, I thought you were on your way to west", said Lily.
" sis,I should be asking you that because I am on my way to west",said Abel.
"No,you are not,this is the south, you are still in south, go that way,it will lead you to west", said Lily.
" really ",said Abel.
" yes, go that way",said Lily.
"OK", said Abel.
As Abel was about to leave, his eyes opened.
" Gabriel, what are you doing here, you left sis at home, no wonder I got a feeling that something was wrong ",said Jack.
" Jack, what are you talking about, this is south ",said Gabriel.
" no!,this is the road to west",said Jack.
"No Jack, this is south, either you are back to south or you never left at all,maybe you were in a long dream", said Gabriel.
" what,a dream ",said Jack.
" yes,Jack because I am where you left me in south, right here",said Gabriel.
"Oh my God, how can I get back to the road to west", said Jack.
" I know an ideal go that way, it will lead you to west",said Gabriel.
"Really", said Jack.
" yes,just go,you will see",said Gabriel.
Jack went down the road but Abel saw him,the fog disappeared and Abel saw Jack walking towards the edge of a mountain. He knew Jack would jump or walk into it.
"Jack, Jack", he shouted but he didn't hear him,Jack was still lost. So he ran and grad him before he fell.
" Jack ",said Abel.
" Abel, oh my God I found you ",he said then he saw that they were at the tip of the mountain.
" oh shit",he said as he went backwards dragging Abel.
"What was that?", he asked.
" that is what you would have fallen in if I didn't stop you ",said Abel.
" you know, I am bringing to believe the fact that you are the chosen one ",said Jack.
" really you too,it was just a little coincidence,and besides I was also fooled by the mist ",said Abel.
" and you also defeated it if not we will not be here",said Jack.
"I was also caught by the big ghost", said Abel.
" and got her to welcome us in her house ",said Jack.
" OK,maybe you are right, I will let you have this one",said Abel.
