Sandy and Maxwell found a spot under the merry-go-round. "This is good," Sandy said. "Have you ever kissed anyone before, Sandy?" Maxwell asked. "No," she replied. "You wanna kiss?" he questioned. "OK, I guess," Sandy replied.
The couple started kissing when Sandy heard something. She thought Maxwell didn't hear it. She thought he was paying more attention to the kiss than the fact anything could come up. Sandy tried to pull away from him, but Maxwell pulled her up to him and covered her head. Sandy knew he had seen something that caused him to be alert. Maxwell was trying to protect her. "What is it?" she asked. "Shh," he muttered. Sandy didn't know what he saw, but Maxwell shouted, "Duck down! And stay down!"
Maxwell brought her paws up and covered her head and put Sandy to the floor. "Maxy?" she asked as he ran away from her. Sandy thought, Maybe he pretended to see something to get away from me! "WAHHH!!!" Sandy cried. Someone came up behind her and put their paw on her mouth. Sandy tried to look behind her, but they had their arm around her neck and she realized what had happened. "Be quiet," the person said. "This is Number 7 reporting for duty."
Number 7 lifted Sandy up to her feet and started carrying her. "Maxwell!" she screamed and realized he couldn't hear her. "Where's Maxy?" Sandy demanded. Number 7 remained quiet. "Sandy!" Maxwell screamed. He sounded like someone was on top of him. Sandy passed by him and noticed Maxwell was under two Bad Hams. "I got the girl," Number 7 told the others. Maxwell looked up at her and Sandy noticed in his eyes, he was saying, "I'm sorry I let you down."

With Jingle and Panda...

Jingle and Panda had settled beside the river. They used the leaves Bijou had used for her bed before the Bad Hams had got her and made cushions. "I wonder how the rest of the Ham-Hams are doing," Panda said as Jingle played a song for Panda. Panda had cut wood and had a fire aflame. He hummed to Jingle's tune to try to relax his tenseness.
Jingle stopped abruptly during his tune. "What's wrong?" Panda shouted and regretted shouting. Number 14 and Number 15 grabbed Panda and forced him to the ground. Number 5 and Number 6 had got Jingle to the ground and broke half the strings on his guitar. Panda grabbed a stick from the fire and tried to fend off Number 14 and Number 15. They snatched it from his hand and put it in his face. He twisted and jerked and fell to the ground. Panda sprained his ankle and tried to get up. He only fell back down and almost broke it that time. Panda knew it was over for him when they knocked him in the back of the head with a blunt stick.
Jingle was still in the struggle when Panda had fallen. Number 14 and Number 15 had then turned on him and started beating him on the head with the stick. Jingle's hair softened it and they noticed. The thing he was worried about was his guitar. Jingle made sure it was on him tight before he dropped to the ground knocked out cold from a blow in the rib cage.
