CHAPTER 10
If you have turned to this page before reading the beginning of this long and woeful tale, then I must warn you to drop the book. If you want to be stubborn and continue reading this, I'll feel you in of what happened prior in this story. It started with a bus crash. Four kids survived. Angry, hungry wolves follow them everywhere, they can't find a way back to civilization, they met a weird man named Doug whose basically allergic to everything, one of the four kids died, and Brad thinks he's all that. Does that seem like a good story to you? Not me!
To make things worse, when Doug let the two kid kids into the house, Brad and Jason saw Candy Apple tied to a chair with a gag in her mouth. At first they were shocked, and then they were just confused. Doug walked up to Brad and Jason and quickly pulled a rope around them. They were tied tight together and then thrown onto the bed. Doug stood in front of the three kids.
"I told you not to come here again. I gave you the compass, but you didn't stay true to the plan. The wolves have followed you to my home. Until they eat someone they'll be trying to get in here. They'll make holes in my home, and then I'll die. So you three little young children will be my sacrifice. I'm not dieing. Not today, but you are." Doug said.
As he said this the kids jumped at the unexpected sound of paws banging against the front door. "You didn't even give us a compass that worked," Jason argued. Doug laughed. "Duh! I needed a chore done so I got you guys to help me. I had to bribe you about something. If I didn't, you would have never helped me. So here you kids come along, and I had a compass. What was I to do? I had to lie," Doug stated. Jason shook his head. "You're a traitor. That's what you are. We trusted you. Now Mandy's dead because of you. You are not going to throw my friends and me to the wolves without a fight," Jason said back.
More wolves could be heard scratching through the wood. Doug looked extremely worried. He walked over to Candy. "You're first my dear," he said enthusiastically. Candy tried to hold on to the chair, but she just wasn't strong enough. "LET HER GO!" Jason yelled at Doug. Doug stopped and nodded his head. "Alright… I'll take you out there first Jason. I'll let you tell the other two what it feels like to be eaten alive." Doug laughed at his comment. "I warned you Jason. I said don't come back. But you did anyway."
"Yeah and you said that the compass would show us a way back to civilization, and you didn't stay true to your word either. So I guess we're both liars," Jason said back. Doug looked pissed off. He walked over to Jason and slapped him in the face. "Don't ever call me a lair," Doug yelled. He then untied Jason and Brad, and then grabbed Jason.
Doug led Jason to the door. Just when he was about to open it Brad said something. Something that would ultimately save their lives. "You're allergic to the outside air right?" Brad asked. Doug whirled around to face Brad. "Why does that matter," Doug asked back. Brad smiled. "Because if you throw Jason out there, I'm going to have to throw this hammer not at you, but against the wall. It'll make a big hole inside this shack, and then you, Doug will die," Brad said this as he picked up his man made hammer. Doug stopped dead in his tracks. "You wouldn't dare," Doug exclaimed. There were more and more wolves scratching the shack. "If you do that, you children will die as well, because the wolves will go right through the hole," Doug explained. "We have a better chance of survival, then if you throw us out there to be eaten alive," Brad argued back. Doug looked extremely angry. He didn't know what to do…
