"Kim, I don't want to jump," Erica complained as she looked down at the water from where the two girls stood.
Kim laughed, "You are sleeping with a teacher, how can you be scared of this?" she asked.
Erica shook her head, "It's very much not the same thing. Can we do it at the same time?"
Kim nodded, "One, two," but she didn't say three as she grabbed Erica's hand and pulled her down with her.
Erica inhaled her scream as she felt herself freefalling before splashing into the water below. Once she came up from below the surface, she was cackling, "That was amazing!"
Kim smiled in response, "I told you. Do you wanna do it again?"
"Absolutely!" Erica replied as the girls swam for the shore before they began walking back up to the point where they dove.
"Kim! Erica!" they heard a male voice yelling from where they jumped.
"It's weird to hear you say my name like we know eachother," Kim announced their presence as they finally saw that the voice belonged to Jason from school.
Jason shook his head, "We do know each other."
"We know of each other," Erica corrected him, "What are you doing up here?"
"I came up here with Billy," he replied, "I thought you two were dead."
Kim smiled as she looked down to grab her clothes to cover her pink swimsuit, "I come up here all the time to clear my head and I finally convinced Erica to join me."
Before any of them could say another word, they heard an explosion from where Jason had left Billy.
"Dammit!" Jason yelled as the three took off at a run toward the source of the sound. They found Billy on the ground and another boy running up.
"What are you doing?!" the stranger yelled at Billy as he reached him.
"Back off!" Jason challenged as he and the girls caught up, "He didn't do anything wrong."
"Didn't do anything wrong? This is a restricted area and he blew it up," the boy replied.
"I guess I dug too deep," Billy replied as he looked up and noticed the wall wasn't done falling down yet, "Guys, clear out!" he yelled.
The kids dove down before they saw the dust settle and they stood back up. "Is that glass?" Kim asked.
"It's not any kind of glass I've ever seen," Erica replied as the group stepped closer to the glass, "There's something in there."
The other boy grabbed one of Billy's tools and broke through the glass revealing five colorful coins on the ground. Jason grabbed red, Billy grabbed blue, Kim scooped up pink, Erica had yellow at her feet and the new guy had black.
"What are these?" Jason asked as the group looked at them.
Before anyone could say another word, they heard the sirens, "Mine security!" BIlly announced.
The five raced back to the van, Jason and Billy had driven up to the mines in and they raced away to avoid being caught.
"Hey guys, this might not be the right time for this but I'm Zach," the new guy stated, "Just in case we die, I want to make sure I introduce myself."
"Thanks," Kim laughed, "I'm Kim. That's Erica, Billy and Jason," she finished the introductions.
"Jeez, why does this mine have so much security?" Erica stated as they raced forward down the dirt roads.
"I guess they take trespassing very seriously," Billy replied, "Hey Jason, there's a train coming!" he shouted as he looked over and realized their way out was being blocked.
"We can make it!" Jason said confidently as he sped forward.
Erica looked at Kim, her face filled with doubt, "I don't think he can make it and I wish I was scared about jumping off that cliff again," she admitted.
Kim nodded before they broke through the train's protective gate and just as they made it almost all the way across, the train smashed into the van's back half sending it flipping over into the grass on the other side.
Erica felt the van begin to cascade but then she blacked out completely, still holding the yellow coin from the mine.
