"TRENT!" Gwen shouts. He looks up to see Gwen completely tied up and hanging upside down from a tall tree.

"Gwen?" he calls.

"Yeah! But watch out, there's--"

Trent steps right into the quicksand. But he was in shallow enough quicksand that he could just climb out. "Oh."

All of a sudden, Gwen drops a foot lower towards the quicksand. "Hurry!" she says, "This thing drops me lower to the quicksand every minute." Trent looks up into the tree. Where the rope should have been tied around a tree trunk, it was actually being let out by a little metal box, which was letting a foot of rope out every minute, making Gwen drop closer to the quicksand.

Trent walks around the tree and, with a stick, draws the edge of the quicksand so he'd know where it is. Then he runs about 3 meters away and aims his bow for the rope. Trent fires his arrow, and he starts running. The arrow cuts the rope holding Gwen in the air, she screams as she falls for the quicksand, and Trent jumps. He jumps over the edge of the quicksand, grabs Gwen in midair, and lands on the other side of the quicksand.

Gwen groans. "God, Trent, you almost gave me a heart attack!" she exclaims. He laughs.

But then, with Gwen still tied up in his arms, a trapdoor opens in the forest floor. They fall into a pit, about 8 feet deep.

"Uh, this can't be good," Trent murmurs, untying Gwen. She stands up and drops the rope on the dirt floor. "Come on, I can lift you out of here."

So Trent weaves his fingers together, and Gwen places her foot on his hands. He hoists her up and she crawls out. Gwen disappears.

"Gwen?!" Trent calls. Nothing. But then she appears with a large rock, about 1½ feet thick. She rolls it to the edge of the pit.

"Watch out," Gwen calls down, and the rolls the boulder into the pit. Trent rolls it to the wall and he stands on it. Gwen offers him a hand and Trent climbs easily out of the trap.

"Wait… What's that sound?" Trent whispers. He and Gwen stand, paralyzed. A heavy stomp of footprints was getting close to them. Trent looks off into the trees and sees a silhouette. The figure had a hood… and a huge knife-looking thing, almost like a scythe, over its back.

"Oh, God…" Gwen whispers, growing paler by the second, if that was possible.

"Hurry!" Trent hisses, pulling Gwen into a nearby bush. Trent holds Gwen close to him and they try to breathe as quietly as possible. The figure walks slowly by, and looks in the pit. The person curses under it's breath.

Then it turns to the forest. It turns around slowly.

It stops right in front of Gwen and Trent's bush. Gwen starts quivering.

A large, shiny blade crashes through the bush into the dirt right barely 2 inches away from Gwen's knee. She screams and Trent pulls them from the bush.

"Run!" he shouts. They sprint, holding hands, away from the masked figure. As Gwen looks over her shoulder, she sees the man yank his blade from the dirt and start jogging after them. Gwen tries to run faster, but…

She trips over a tree root.

She accidentally lets go of Trent's hand and she grabs her ankle. "Ow!" Trent spins around and picks Gwen up. He starts running again, with Gwen's legs wrapped around his waist and her arms around his shoulders.

"DUCK!" Gwen screams. So Trent quick bends over, and there's a whoosh of the knife blade swinging over his head. Trent stands up again and starts running again.

Once they have a pretty good distance between them and the masked man, Trent sets Gwen down. "Quick, climb the tree," Trent rushes. He hoists Gwen up and she starts climbing. Trent climbs up the tree and climbs after her. They get pretty high up when the man finally appears under the tree.

He tries to climb up, too, but he breaks the first branches he touches. The masked man eventually sits at the base of the tree, staring up at Gwen and Trent.

"Looks like we'll be staying here for a while," Trent groans. Gwen leans against him and holds her ankle.


Geoff scans the pond. No sign of Bridgette. Wait…You use a harpoon in the water, Geoff thinks, Right?

"Geoff!" Bridgette exclaims. His head snaps up to see Bridgette in a shark cage, with meat hanging from the bottom of the cage.

"Bridge! I'm coming!" he shouts, stepping out of his sandals and wading into the pond. Geoff takes his pink shirt off and tosses it on the sand.

"Watch out, there are sharks!" Bridgette warns. Geoff waves his harpoon at her and she nods. He dives in.

A shark jumps out of the water and rips a chunk of meat from the cage. Bridgette screams as the cage rocks in the air. She looks up at the metal chain, wrapped around a dangling tree limb. One of the metal rungs on the chain popped out of the knot. It's coming apart.

More and more sharks jump at the meat, banging her cage around. The chain keeps shuddering and unraveling. Where'd Geoff go?, she thinks.

A particularly big shark made the cage swing around so much that she was thrown against the bars. That harsh movement made the knot snap. The cage fell for the water, and Bridgette took a big breath of air before she went under.

The cage was so heavy, it fell all the way to the bottom of the pond. Sharks swarmed the cage, biting the meat, leaving streams of blood floating around. A shark dashes up to the cage and starts gnawing at the bars. Bridgette backs away in fear, and something grabs her arm. She spins around.

Geoff. Bridgette swims out the open cage door and swims with him towards the surface. Any time a shark would come close, he would lunge the harpoon towards it, and the shark would swim away.

They finally hit the surface, and Bridgette gasps. They swim for the shore, and rest on the sand.
