Nineteen

Fridge began speaking to the group, "Okay I don't know video games like Spencer, but what I do know is football. We need to run one hell of an offense."

Bethany spoke up, "You guys look!" She pointed out into the distance.

"We need to get going." Tillie spoke with urgency.

Fridge nodded, "Okay, here's what we are going to do."

The noise in the distance got louder, as the men on the bikes got closer to them.

"We are going to fan out. We are going to run a play I call the double reverse refrigerator. Bethany, you go up the left."

-
Bethany tried to quietly make her way through the jungle, carrying a torch. She looked around, trying to keep track of her surroundings.
-
"Tillie and I will go up the right side."

Tillie looked at him, "Why am I going with you?"

Fridge looked back at her, "I want you with me. Our characters mean something to each other, and you mean a lot to me."

Tillie nodded with a smile, "Okay, good enough for me."
-
Fridge led the way while carrying a torch. Tillie followed after him, trying to watch where she stepped to not attract a lot of noise.

"Alex, you will withdraw the defense. Spencer is going to go up the middle."

Martha piped up, "I'll go with Spencer up the middle."

"No, there's something else we are going to need you for."

-

As the men began to drive up, they heard a song begin playing. They all parked, and got off their bikes. Martha stood there and smiled, "You guys like to dance right?"

One of the men approached, beginning the fight. Several others joined in, Martha fighting all of them at once.

-
Spencer quietly made his way through the jungle, stopping as he watched a jaguar jump down from the tree ahead of him.

He looked at it a bit hesitant.

Alex broke his train of thought by standing out in the open and yelling at the creature, "Hey over here!"

The jaguar turned, staring down Alex. It pounced, racing after him. Alex took off running. The jaguar passed by where Alex stood behind a tree.

Spencer looked around the well lit path, while Martha continued fighting those men.

One of the bike's shot out what looked like a rope, causing it to latch on around Martha's ankle. The man on the bike began driving off, causing Martha to fall and get dragged behind him.

Martha tried to stop herself, reaching out to grab anything she could. The man looked back for a split second, not realizing Spencer stepped into the path.

Spencer swung the branch, knocking the man off the bike. The bike slid over a fallen tree, eventually stopping itself and Martha.

She groaned, "Thanks." She got up, throwing the rope off.

Spencer nodded awkwardly, "Sure no problem.

More bikes approached.

Martha spoke, "Get to the statue Spencer, go."

Spencer picked up the bike, as Martha ran. She grabbed onto a tree vine and swung forward kicking one of the men off their bike.

Spencer got onto the bike, and sped off down the lit path.
