I love the A-Team and thought I'd try my hand at writing a story about them, enjoy.

Trust, Honesty & Courage

Chapter 1

I ran as fast as I could through the trees of Frost Hill knowing that they were right behind me in their jeep. I could hear its rumbling engine and didn't look back, I pushed myself harder though my lungs burn and I was gasping for breath.

My legs hurt and I wanted to stop but I knew if I did that they would catch me and drag me back to the hell hole I had just escaped from.

There was no way I was going back, I stumbled to a stop coming up to the river. I looked downstream and found it dropped off at the rock edge, I got a plan and dove into the river.

The water was cold but refreshing I found as I broke the surface and the current carry me towards the rocks. I brought my feet under my body and tried to grip the bottom so I could jump but it was too slippery.

I toppled over the edge like a rag doll the rocks cutting in to my exposed skin on my arms and ankles. All I could think about before I hit the again was; what a dumb idea.

The river carried me on even as I tried to fight to free myself from the current, I looked around wildly for a branch or something and spotted four men hiking it looked like. "Help!" I shouted to them as loud as possible.

The man in a white coat turned his head, upon seeing me he quickly got the other guys to stop and told them what to do.

They came running over, "Hold on, we'll get you out of there!" a man wearing a leather jacket and blue baseball cap called to me. Beside him a big guy in overalls and a red long sleeved shirt dropped his bag and started digging through it.

My body was hurting now and I was cold looking ahead I saw another drop in the river and it was big compared to the one I'd taken earlier.

"Catch this!" one of them ordered as a rope landed beside me with a splash, I grabbed it with cold hands.

"Got it!" I told them and they started pulling me towards the river bank. Upon reaching it I fell to my knees in the grass exhausted and completely drained.

"You alright kid?" someone asked, "C..co..cold." as all I got out before I passed out.
