All of the middle school students stood in bathing suits near a lake as Cory and Bex stood in front of them. Cory then said, "For our first big group game of the week, we're going to be playing Man Hunt. You can hide anywhere within the fenced area of the camp. But when the assigned taggers find you, you'll have to run." Bex then interruped Cory as she said, "Or swim. Because chasing your friends down like the shark from Jaws is the most epic way to play Man Hunt." Cory then said, "Now then, you've been divided into two teams. The predators and the prey. The predators are wearing red bands, while the prey are wearing blue bands. If you're tagged by a predator, give them your band, and you can come back to the base here and get a new band. But if you're attached by the King Predator, you're permanently out of the game." Buffy then jumped up as she said, "And the King of course if me! Just you watch, Mr. Matthews. This game is gonna be over in minutes." Bex then said, "At the blow of the first whistle, the prey can take off and hide. At the second whistle, the predators will come. Use whatever you need to hide or camaflogue. Ready? Go!" Bex then blew her whistle and over half the students jumped into the water and began to swim away.
Riley was swimming as fast as she could when she heard the second whistle. Immediately she heard the splash of other students getting into the water and heard Buffy from far away say, "I'm coming for all of you!" Riley began to panic as she heard the sound of splash noises from other students get closer. A panicked Riley said, "Oh no. I'm gonna be the first one out." Suddenly Riley felt a hand grab her and pull her behind a large log. It turned out to be Jonah. A surprised Riley said, "What are..." Jonah then said, "Shh. The predators won't suspect us hiding right in the middle of the lake." Riley and Jonah remained quiet as they stayed afloat in the middle of the lake behind the log while the many other students swam right by them. Once they were gone Riley giggled and said, "Wow. You're smart." Jonah smiled and said, "And you're great at being quiet. You're Riley right?" Riley nodded and said, "Yeah, and thanks for rescuing me." Jonah nodded back as he said, "No problem."
Andi was running through the woods as she heard Buffy yell, "I know you're out there Andi Mack! I'm coming for you!" A panicked Andi said softly to herself, "Ugg. Why did I agree to play this game. I didn't want to play this game." Suddenly Andi felt an arm grab her and pull her behind a large tree. It turned out to be Lucas as a confused Andi said, "What are..." Lucas then said, "Shhh. Quiet." Lucas and Andi stood very close to each other as they heard Buffy and the other students run past them. Once they were gone Andi said, "Phew. Thanks for..." Lucas interrupted Andi and said, "Hold on. You..." Andi panicked and said, "They're coming back!?" Andi then grabbed onto Lucas' arms as a smiling Lucas said, "I was just gonna say you're got a bug on your shoulder." Lucas flicked the bug off Andi as Andi continuing to hold on to Lucas' arms looked up at him. A smiling Andi said, "Wow. Your muscles are so big." Lucas smiled as he said, "Thanks."
In the middle of the lake, Riley and Jonah were still staying afloat as Riley said, "How long do we have to stay here?" Jonah then said, "Until we're spotted or the game ends. Hopefully the later so we don't get tired. Think smarter not harder I say." Riley moaned and said, "But my legs are getting tired. Can't we go to dry land?" Jonah then said, "No. That's where we'll be more vulnerable." Riley then said, "But my legs are..." Jonah then turned around and said, "Here. Hold onto my back. I'm strong enough to keep us both afloat." A surprised Riley said, "Really?" Jonah nodded and said, "Yeah. Just hold on." Riley then got behind Jonah and wrapped her arms around Jonah and held onto him tight. Feeling relieved Riley rested her head on Jonah's neck while Jonah said, "Feeling better?" Riley smiled and said, "Much better."
Andi and Lucas were walking through the woods as Lucas said, "I think they're on the other side of the woods now." Andi then said, "That's good to WHOAH!" Andi then tripped on a fallen branch and fell down. Andi immediately had a look of pain on her face as she said, "Ow. My leg hurts." Suddenly the two heard a voice from far away say, "You hear that?" A panicked Andi said, "Oh no. They're going to get us." Lucas then picked up Andi in his arms as he said, "Not if I have anything to say about it." Andi's face turned red as she felt Lucas' strong arms hold her close. Lucas then began to run through the woods holding Andi in his arms. Andi only blushed as she nestled her head near Lucas' perfect chest.
After two hours Bex who had a bull horn out stood at the edge of the beach yelled, "Okay everyone. Head on in. It's dinner time!" Soon after Lucas appeared carrying Andi. A concerned Bex went over to the two as she said, "Andi. Are you all right?" Andi then said, "Yeah. Just tripped. Lucas here was nice to carry me over." Suddenly the three heard Riley say, "Lucas?" EVeryone turned and saw in the water was Riley hanging onto Jonah. A surprised Lucas said, "Riley?" A surprised Andi said, "Jonah?" Riley and Jonah realized what position they were in and Riley suddenly let go. Jonah then said, "Um. Andi... what happened?" Andi's face turned red and she quickly jumped out of Lucas' arms and said, "Nothing much going on here. Nothing that... complicated."
