12 sprinted to the end of the tunnel his bag heaving on his shoulders from all his, frankly, worthless stuff, tools and the talisman. 12 turned his head; 6 was just managing to stay behind him with 5 jogging behind. and 8 were at the back shoulder to shoulder weapons out and walking backwards and 1 was just in front also turning around.
"12 look out!" 5 yelled pointing at the floor in front of 12. 12 began to feel a terrifying yet thrilling as he plunged down from a hole in the tunnel. 12 starred down at a lake below him. 12 grabbed his bag and began tossing some of his stuff behind him which blew up behind him. There they were neatly wrapped clothe wings, 12 opened them up and, in desperation, grabbed the metal clips that should be clipped on to his shoulders. 12's feet skimmed the edge of the water before he bobbed back up again in the same motion until he fell to the ground, stood up again and caught his wings.
"12!" 5 yelled as he barged through the rest "are you-arrrrgh!"5 slipped and fell off the ledge they were balancing on. 12 noticed that 5 had a line of strong rope tied around his waist, 12 pointed to and 6 was the first to grab it, then 1, then 7, then 8. 5's body flopped down but his went up in a quick, painful motion. 12 rummaged in his bag once again and found a small hooked piece of metal and a long line of rope he tied the rope onto the bottom of metal. 12 tried to throw it through the loose loop 5 was hanging on, but it completely missed. He tried again. But he nearly hit 5. Eventually 12 throw it through the rope and it hooked onto a rock on the cliff securely; 12 tugged it to prove it. 12 waved to the group, and opened his fist to gesture 'let go'. 6, who knew the plan let go first, then 8, then 1 but 7 wouldn't let go. 12 signed again, 7 wouldn't. 1 put a hand on 7's shoulder and muttered something. He'd changed from that day 12 thought starring up at 1. Shutting her eyes 7 let go. 5 zoomed down the rope; 12 pounced out of the way to avoid 5 who had gone smashing into a bush. 12 ran over to him, as he did so 7 had already jumped onto the rope and somehow skidded down. 5 limped out from the bush and hugged 12. When they were done 5 looked funny and ran over to the lake. 7 gestured 12 over to her,
"Got any ideas?" 7 said pointing to 1, 8 and 6. 12 thought for a moment then took off a ring that he had put on his arm, and then he pointed to 7, then the rope, then the others. 7 knew the point so she grabbed the rope, flung it back and caught it all in a sought of ninja style then looked back and 12 who already had his mouth gaping open. 7 grinned. Next she throw the rope which caught just under 6's feet. 12 showed the ring to 7 and pointed to the ledge so 7 gave the rope to 12 after looping on the ring. Then she began to climb. After what felt like one second 7 was at the top on the ledge. She gave it to 6 who closed his eyes and jumped. In a way 12 caught 6, but it looked more like 6 had smashed into 12.
One by one they slid down until they all stood at the bottom and 12 had the rope in his bag. They all wandered over to 5 who was still at the lake, holding his chest and puffing his mouth. All of a sudden 5 opened his mouth and dipped his head over the lake like something was about to come out.
"5? What are you doing" 7 asked in confusion.
"ill" the little voice of 6 came "human...ill" everyone turned to 6 who was looking at 5.
