LATER THAT NIGHT
It was the first night of the capture the flag tournament and the teams were group 1 against group 8. The match started off all right until Katie and Stanley got caught. Now it was 5 against 6 since Jenny was also caught. With the rest of the group they sent 3 to attack, Sam, Dave, and Chris, and 2 to defend, frank and Katie. Sam Dave and Chris separated and surrounded the flag to hit it from all sides. They all noticed that there were only 2 people guarding the flag and jail, and that there was a lot of space between the two so they looked for others hiding in the woods. Sam saw Erin in a tree just above the flag waiting to jump down and catch them. She used her radio and said, "Erin's in the tree just above the flag what do you have?" Chris answered, "there's one hiding behind a stump 50 feet." "Anything else?" Dave then said, "yea I got the other 2 in my sights going for our flag and Jenny." "Alright, here's the plan Dave you go for the jail and get them out. Chris and me will go after the flag. Alright." "Yea." "Go when you hear the rock, Sam picked up a rock about the size of a base ball and threw it to the left of her before running and springboarding off of the stump the kid was next to. Out of the corner of her eye she could see Dave going for the jail and straight ahead was Chris running at the tree with Erin in it. She got to by the flag and faked out the guard and grabbed the flag before catching up with Chris and heading for the seminary. As they ran out the rest of their group followed them. They stomped up the steps and stood on the marble porch where almost everyone was sitting declaring them the winners.
20 minutes later they heard yelling from the other capture the flag area and saw Sarah and Matt running out of the woods with the rest of their group. Just behind them was beans (Cabrina) and chip's (Kara) group. From the opposite direction was Nathan and tally's group chasing Mary Lynn and Shaun's group. Sarah sat down next to Sam while still holding the flag, "I guess we won." Matt sat next to her, "I guess so." Sarah mountain the said, "our wining groups for tonight are group 1, group 3, and training group 1. Tomorrow night group 2 will face group 5 and group 5 will face group 6. Also training group 3 will face trainng group 4. Now all of you inside and you have and hour before lights out. Sarah got up and walked inside with a slight limp as if her left knee was hurting. Jeff noticed it and asked Matt, "did she run into anything out there?" "Not that I noticed." Sam then said, "her knee must still be acting up." Then frank added, "it's been 4 years she should be used to it by now." Matt asked, "what's been 4 years?" "It's been 4 years since her left knee was injured during a hockey game." "Must've been bad." "It was a combination of twisting and dislocating." "How'd it happened?" "She was checked through the boards." Chris then interrupted, "no way! How?" "The boards weren't secured right so when they hit it like 2 section of it fell. That plus the guy that did it was bigger than you guys." "She didn't play anyone her age did she?" "Nope, they were all at least 2 years older." "Why did they let her play then?" "She gave a lot more than she got." "Oh." "She doesn't feel pain to well either." "What do you mean?" "Well she broke 3 toes last winter and didn't know it until they turned a blackish color." Jeff then added jokingly, "maybe she should start wrestling." Frank then stood up; "I better go get ready for bed." "g'night." A few minutes later everyone else headed inside.
