After a couple of minutes, Harry said, "I think we should stick together, John."
"Fine with me. I think we should go this way" you said, pointing to a less dense part of the jungle. You pushed your way past several ferns, noticing that you was slowly moving downhill. Believing it's a good sign, due to the oceanic smell in the air, you continued in the same direction. After five minutes, you came to another clearing.
"Better" Harry muttered.
"Yeah. I can see the beach, and some people. Its some sort of cove. Pity those cliffs are in the way" you said as you looked to the north. Harry was looking the other way, and saw that the cliffs gently gave way the the beach
"I can see a way down. Maybe they can tell us what is going on" Harry said. He took the lead, and quickly walked over to the others. Halfway, you saw that there were only two other people on the beach, both teenage girls slightly older looking than you and Harry. Both had brown hair, slightly darker shade than your own, and were reasonably attractive looking, but otherwise unremarkable. One wore a blue bikini, while the other was in an one-piece. Neither girl seemed aware of your presence.
"Hello" you called out. Almost immediately, you regretted it. Both girls looked startled, and instantly on edge. Seeing their alarm, you called out, "Sorry. I didn't mean to alarm you."
The girl in the bikini took the lead. She started to eye you and Harry. After a minute, she said, "You're not what I was expecting....."
