Chapter 12: The Caves

One week later...

Nathan: "Anyone afraid of the dark?"

The squad stands in front of an entrance to a cave system in a mountainside.

Jamie: "If you are, then how are you a soldier?"

Jamie and Rocky go ahead.

Nathan: "Whatever happened to the Jamie who was crying over her dog?"

Adam: "I don't think we want that answer."

Adam tightens his arm wraps.

Cate: "I agree."

Nathan draws his blade as Cate readies a home run.

Adam: "Come on."

They follow.

Meanwhile...

Jade: "(cracking knuckles) Now it's my turn."

Jade is resting on top of an exit of a mountain's cave system.

Jade: "I'll just warm up while I wait."

She draws her hammer.

Meanwhile...

Nathan: "Guess the situation just got a lot battier."

The squad is completely surrounded by bats.

Adam: "And we've got no choice but to fight our way through!"

They know that a single bullet could cause a cave in.

Jamie: "So why are you wasting breath spouting useless information instead of taking out our obstacles?"

Rocky pounces and lunges to open a path for Jamie, with the two taking their chance.

Adam: "(in head) Her mission always comes first."

Nathan: "(annoyed) Stop leaving us in the dust!"

The other three catch up as the bat swarm continues to rage behind them.

Cate: "(panicking) Faster guys!"

They pick up the pace further, only to find a fork in the road.

Adam: "Which way did she go?"

They can hear faint growling down the right path.

Cate: "Right!"

They follow the right path, along with the horde behind them...
