Watermelon!
Team 2: Julie, Portman, Adam, Guy, Jesse, Ken, (minus-Averman)
They had only taken a few steps into the woods well because theycouldn't really move.
They were all huddled in a bunch, and as a group were taking step by steps.
"Doesn't this remind you of one of our first practices, when we were all tied together," Guy said. They all laughed.
There was a crack of lightning that was too close for comfort. Julie, and Ken screamed.
"Maybe this wasn't such a good idea," Ken said shivering.
"So what if we catch a few colds, or even get pneumonia. So what if we get more lost than we are now. So what if we get eaten alive by-" Adam stopped midway.
"Adam you're not helping...at all," Guy said.
"The point is we have to work together, despite all the obstacles. We have been a team for so long now, we need to Cut-the-crap. Now who's with me," Adam said loud, and proud.
"Umm Adam," Julie said interrupting. "We already went through this last chapter," she said.
He looked confused for a second. "Oh... OK nevermind," He said looking away.
"Now before we all start freaking out, I do remember something, and it may help us," Julie explained.
"And what was that," Jesse asked.
"She was going right, right? Well, if you look on the map," she said pointing to it. The ink was running down some of the page, and could barely be understood.
"Well, if you go this way towards the right," she said pointing it to her team. "You'll probably find a shortcut by crossing this river separating the left, and the right bank. This is probably the fastest way to get to them. Let's get going," she said starting to walk.
Portman stopped her.
"It's obvious Julie that you, no offense, have NO sense of direction. So I say someone else be the tour guide," he said smirking, and folding his arms.
"Fine, and who do you suggest this 'Tour Guide' be?" she asked.
"Me of course," Portman said.
"Over my dead body you'll be trying to get us out of here! You can barely get your head out of your ass!" she said.
"Um maybe we should give him a chance..." Ken said. His head was fine except for a small bruise.
"Yea I mean he did prove himself a lot for the team today," Jesse said.
"You guys," Julie started. "We're talking about a six foot, almost two hundred pound, nineteen year old, that listens to Nirvana, and Metallica but couldn't sleep alone tonight cause he was afraid of the dark," Julie said.
"That shows his sensitivity towards... I don't know, but I still vote Portman," Guy said.
"OK fine. I did say to work as a team..." Julie said kicking herself for saying that before.
"Yayyy," Portman said jumping up. He grabbed the map from Julie.
"OK this..." he said studying the map. "This shit is useless," he said tearing it up into pieces, crumbling it, and then throwing it over his shoulders.
"Dean Portman!" Julie screamed. "Are you out of your mind?" she yelled.
"OK what the hell do we need the map for if we don't even know where we are on the map?" he asked.
Hmm good point.
"So instead we follow the animals because the animals go near the water. Theriver is where thewater will be," he said.
"You mean thewater is where theriver will be," Julie said.
"Whatever, let's not get technical," Portman said.
"Well, right now all the animals are probably under the trees because it's raining," Adam said.
They all moved under the trees. "Then I guess we have to wait out the rain," Ken said.
They all stood under the trees. Yes, less rain under here, but somehow the winds were getting stronger.
Then there was lightning.
It hit a branch from high up the tree they were under.
and it fell...
down.
down.
Team 1: Connie, Fulton, Luis, Charlie, Dwayne, Russ, Goldberg (plus+Averman)
"This rain is way too much!" Connie said.
"You're right," Averman said. "But the last thing we want to do is go under a tree. Goldberg, and Connie give me your blankets," Averman said. They handed it to Averman right away.
He tied the two thick blankets together, and put it over his head.
They looked at him confused.
He popped his head out again. "Ooh hello, get under here..." he said.
They moved to him, and under the blankets. They were all breathing heavily, and under there it was warm.
With all their hot breaths.
"We're still getting wet. This is going to KILL my hair," Luis said.
"Yes, but we're not AS wet, and its warm so we wont catch any type of pneumonia," Averman said.
"Since when did you learn all this nature stuff?" Charlie asked.
"Watching the 'Discovery Channel'. See it pays off to be a nerd," Averman said.
There was a huge crack of lightning, and they all jumped under the covers.
"Ugh, look at all this mud!" Connie squealed. The mud was seeping in, and was getting on their hands, and knees.
"I think I need to sneeze," Fulton said putting a 'sneezing face.'
"Fulton...don't..." Charlie said.
"Ahh..." Fulton started.
"Watermelon!" Russ yelled.
"Watermelon?" Dwayne asked.
"It's supposed to stop you from-"
"ACHHOO!"
"Sneezing..." Russ finished.
They looked at each other, and noticed their mud covered faces.
"Sorry guys," Fulton said trying to wipe some mud off his face.
