"Don't move a muscle." Luis whispers trying not to move his mouth very
much.
"How can I not move when my heart is pounding and I'm breathing faster than normal?" Averman asked and the bear turned to face him.
"Shhhhh!" Goldberg said.
The bear sniffed around some more and went up to Luis who closed his eyes. The bear sniffed him and then stood back up on two feet and let out another loud roar.
*
"What was that?" Portman asked looking toward where he heard the noise.
"It sounded like a bear." Julie said.
"Well I think we should head back to camp." Russ said frightened.
"We can't. Luis, Averman, and Goldberg are still missing." Fulton said.
"I think we should go check it out." Charlie said.
"We would have to wouldn't we?" Russ wined as the headed toward the bear.
Meanwhile the bear started to sniff around Averman who was trying to be as still as he could possibly be. The bear sniffed his leg and Averman jerked because he was ticklish which caused the bear to jerk back which made him even angrier.
It went back up to Averman who was praying that he would live and pushed him over with its powerful paw.
"Ouch." Averman said when he hit the ground. Him talking would prove to be a fatal mistake.
The bear went after him and bit him right on his thigh bone and picked him up. He tossed him around while Luis tried to think of something to do.
Luis picked up a huge stick and hit the bear in the head with it. The bear dropped Averman and turned to face Luis and roared louder than ever before.
"Nice bear." Luis said but the bear came after him too.
Goldberg went to Averman's aid while Luis tried to fight off the bear.
"Are you ok?" Goldberg asked when he got to Averman's side.
When Averman didn't answer Goldberg turned him over. He was very bloody and was unconscious.
"Oh man what do I do now?" Goldberg asked himself.
He took off his outer shirt and tied it around Averman's leg so he could slow the blood flow and he wouldn't lose as much blood.
Luis was still trying to fight off the bear but it wasn't working very well. The bear lunged at him but missed. It lunged again and succeeded. He caught Luis right in the stomach.
Just then the other team mates emerged from the woods and couldn't believe what they saw.
Julie handed Kyle to Portman and jumped on the bear's back and grabbed his ears so he couldn't turn around and grab her.
The bear dropped Luis and tried to turn to get Julie but couldn't.
"Jules be careful." Portman said and went over to help her.
"Stay there!" Julie yelled at him. "I've got this under control. You just go help Averman and Luis."
Julie kept a tight grip on the bear's ears but let go to grab his neck. The bear fought for about ten more minutes but then collapsed.
"Julie what did you do to it?" Charlie asked looking up.
"Is it dead?" Ken asked.
"No." Julie said panting. "It's just sleeping so we have to get out of here before it wakes up and wants some dinner."
"Portman get Averman and Fulton get Luis and bring them back to the cabin." Charlie said and they did so and headed back.
"How did you know that would make him go to sleep?" Adam asked.
"Because my grandpa taught me." Julie said. "I never thought I would actually have to do it though."
*
When they got back to the cabin they didn't like what they saw. The place was tore to bits.
"What happened here?" Guy asked looking at the ruined camp site.
"Robbers." Julie said.
"How do you know?" Connie asked.
"Well it couldn't be anything else because animals can't drive cars and the cares are missing." Julie said.
"How are we going to get them to the hospital?" Dwayne asked.
"Hold on I'm thinking." Julie said trying to concentrate.
"Man this sucks." Russ said.
"Ok Dwayne's truck is gone and Averman's van is gone." Julie said. "And the hospital is miles away." She thought to herself for a minute after she said that and a distressed look appeared on her face.
"Is there a phone anywhere around here?" Portman asked her quietly.
"Not that works." Julie said. "I think we should just take them upstairs for now and let me fix them up a little bit while ya'll go for help."
They took them upstairs and laid them on beds.
"Good the robbers didn't come up here." Julie said as she looked under a bed for the first aid kit. "What are you waiting for? Go find help!" she said and the team left.
Luis was the only one awake so she decided to do Averman first. She went over to him and untied Goldberg's shirt from his leg.
She slowly took off his pants to see how bad the wounds were. He had gashes in his leg that were at least 2 or 3 inches deep. She searched through the first aid kit and found some antiseptic clothes and bandages.
She cleaned the wounds off and wrapped them up tightly so the blood flow would slow down again. She began to apply even more pressure with her hands when Luis let out a loud moan so she rushed over to his side.
"What's wrong?" Julie asked as she gently took his shirt off to reveal a badly bruised and gashed abdomen.
"I'm not going to make it through this." Luis said as Julie looked through the first aid kit for some more clothes and bandages.
"Yes you are." Julie said but she didn't believe herself. "You've just got to be strong and hold on." She said as tears formed in her eyes.
Kyle came up and nudged her leg.
"Not now Kyle." Julie said and put him on a different bed. "Go to sleep or something."
"Thanks for saving me." Luis said as she cleaned him up with the clothes and he cringed in pain.
"No problem." Julie said. "I would jump on a bear for you any day." She said and they both put on a weak smile. "Can you sit up for a minute so I can wrap you up?"
"Sure." He said as he sat up.
Julie wrapped him up and he laid back down.
He began to moan again and Julie knew that there was something wrong with his internal organs.
"Hang on Luis." She said crying. "Help is on the way."
"I'm trying as hard as I can Jules." He said and grabbed her hand and squeezed it.
"Come Luis you can do it." Julie said returning the squeeze. "I have faith in you."
Luis held on tight for another five minutes but then his grip slowly let go.
"Luis?" Julie said as tears streamed down her face.
When he didn't answer she felt for a pulse but didn't find one.
"Oh my God he's not breathing either!" she yelled and felt for a heart beat but couldn't find one.
Just then the ambulance people burst through the door and took Luis away on a stretcher. They then came back in and got Averman who was now coming back to consciousness.
"Don't worry Jules. They are both going to be just fine." Portman said putting an arm around her shoulders.
Julie looked up into his eyes and saw tears forming. Kyle started to wine and she knew that he knew something wasn't right.
"How can you be so sure?" Julie asked as the ambulance drove away and they got into a car that had come to take them to the hospital.
They were in the waiting room for it seemed like forever. A police man came up and asked for Julie and Charlie pointed him to her.
"We have found your vehicles and the robbers are in custody." The police man said and Julie mumbled a weak thank you.
"Who cares about some stupid cars when two of my friends are dying as we speak?" Julie thought to herself and went to sit back down next to Portman who was playing with Kyle but still had tears in his eyes.
"It's going to be ok." Portman said and pulled her into a loving embrace.
By now all of the ducks were crying, even Russ. They were all waiting anxiously for the doctor to come out with a report and eventually he did.
Julie was the first one to get to him. "Are they ok?" she asked when she got up to him.
"Well Lester Averman is doing just fine. He has a broken leg but will be back on his feet in no time." The doctor said and then paused.
"What about Luis?" Julie said as a fresh batch of tears welled up in her eyes.
"Luis Mendoza has internal injuries and is in critical condition. If he makes it through tonight he will be just fine." The doctor said and then paused again. "But it is very unlikely that he will make it through the night."
They all started to cry again and Adam piped up and asked when they could see him.
"There can only be one person visiting at a time." The doctor said.
"Julie you should go and see him first." Charlie said. "You are the one who saved him."
"Ok." Julie said as the doctor brought Averman out in a wheelchair and they all went up and hugged him.
"Thanks for saving my life Jules." Averman said to Julie who nodded as the doctor took her to Luis's room.
The other ducks chatted with Averman while they watched Julie disappear down the halls.
Julie prepared herself to see him in bandages and barely alive and tried not to cry but when she entered his room and saw all of the wires and stuff attached to him she hit her knees and began to cry again.
"Jules is that you?" Luis asked weakly and Julie got up to go see him.
"Yeah it's me." She said wiping a tear away.
"I owe my life to you." He said as he looked her straight in the eyes and reached for her hand.
She took his hand and kneeled down beside him. "Don't worry Luis. Everything is going to be just fine." Julie said.
"No its not." Luis said after a minute or two. "I have to tell you something before I go."
"Don't talk like that." Julie said. "You're not going anywhere except back home."
Luis paused a minute and cringed and then said "Jules I love you." He said and closed his eyes and his heart monitor started to beep.
"DOCTOR!" Julie yelled and a few nurses and the doctor rushed in.
"Young lady we have to ask you to leave now." The doctor said.
Julie stood outside the door for a minute and watched as the doctors did C.P.R and she mumble "I love you too Luis."
Julie rushed back to the waiting room with tears streaming down her face again.
When she got back the whole team rushed up to her and asked what was happening.
She was quiet for a minute and then looked up into Portman's loving eyes and whispered "He's dying."
Portman pulled her into another embrace and started to cry himself.
Author's Note: Wow ok I had to stop it right there again. Sorry! Well anyways r&r. I'm not going to go on if I don't get reviews because I need some ideas!
