I look up at the sky and notice the sun and moon will be switching shifts in a few hours. I normally wouldn't say anything but nights here are probably quite cool. There isn't a building or shelter in this forest and we didn’t come with proper clothing to keep us warm during the night. I would probably be fine because I'm used to the cold, but the others have me worried. I don't know where they’re from but I've narrowed it down my list to somewhere in the states.473Please respect copyright.PENANA1wS0QXuKWx
473Please respect copyright.PENANAPzWiICTrq3
Its already starting to cool down and I look over at Agent who is shivering like no tomorrow. I know its only going to get worse so I decide to speak up.473Please respect copyright.PENANA39YjB1e2rc
473Please respect copyright.PENANAkzkxcxaOw1
"We only have about three and a half hours of sunlight, we should stop and make camp," I said.473Please respect copyright.PENANAZ4N18wBFt4
473Please respect copyright.PENANAq1JuEj7wdN
"I was thinking the same thing," said JJ. "we just need to find a good place to set up camp."473Please respect copyright.PENANAWGa4pNGtwH
473Please respect copyright.PENANAV5Le4geM4l
"What’s wrong with right here?" asked Agent.473Please respect copyright.PENANAJBm51aftRY
473Please respect copyright.PENANA6nTlMF1IGF
"There isn't much here we can use to make a camp. We need to find water, that is always the best place for camp," responded JJ.473Please respect copyright.PENANAEZpbuyk8z6
473Please respect copyright.PENANADpUDOVdIJI
"We can’t be overly picky. If we spend to much time to find the perfect spot, then we wont be ready for the night. But I agree this spot isn't good," I said.473Please respect copyright.PENANAT8dxM8zDpI
473Please respect copyright.PENANApaNHq8UEkw
Agent shoves his canteen to his mouth and throws the bottom up for a sip. Then he realized that he already drank it all. This reminds me that I have water that I can’t for the life of me remember if I drank any yet. I shake my canteen and heavy weight and minimal swishing proves that its full.473Please respect copyright.PENANATgS0DatlJw
473Please respect copyright.PENANAnjnTCF1TO1
"Agent are you out of water already?" asked JJ.473Please respect copyright.PENANANsPiKq2BgB
473Please respect copyright.PENANA4KfFRfWIAK
"Yes! We have been walking all day and it made me thirsty," Agent replied trying to justify his careless rationing.473Please respect copyright.PENANAewQpcFyyNd
473Please respect copyright.PENANAGCgCIdkPoe
"You have to ration your water wisely Agent. I still have half a canteen left," said JJ, "but does anyone have a surplus of water that they can share with Agent?"473Please respect copyright.PENANASw5OU02Rbm
473Please respect copyright.PENANAs1WeBX3EoI
"I have a full canteen still," I said.473Please respect copyright.PENANAopnm368tjA
473Please respect copyright.PENANAPNpDXVR7SQ
"Breaker give me some please. You still have a full canteen," said Agent trying to be sincere but I still here the demand in his voice.473Please respect copyright.PENANAeHtg80ep1m
473Please respect copyright.PENANAAS9decjrYj
I would have given him some if he asked it in a better way. He sounded moderately sincere but his wording pissed me off. He isn't good with words which was apparent the moment I met him. Now I'm obligated to teach him a lesson.473Please respect copyright.PENANA2CFvhdD5VP
473Please respect copyright.PENANAcXLwYvtqgg
"Hmmmmm, no," I refused.473Please respect copyright.PENANA4mDgFVKwdS
473Please respect copyright.PENANAEogl05Nlyi
"What why! Your canteen is full!" Said Agent more aggressively.473Please respect copyright.PENANAatERGa21XQ
473Please respect copyright.PENANApZRepyWqEh
"Maybe you should have been smarter with your own water," I said.473Please respect copyright.PENANAMiaz2heDkW
473Please respect copyright.PENANACn2CYXaGJT
At this point I'm just trying to piss him off and I'm confident I wont fail. Implying that Agent is stupid is the easiest and best way to get under his skin. Agent likes to think of himself being a very intelligent individual and isn't very open when people question that. I’m not saying he’s not, because he is a smart person, but not in all the ways he thinks.473Please respect copyright.PENANA5sdEBf2uvg
473Please respect copyright.PENANABUk5MEBWEh
"Don't be a fucking asshole Breaker!" Agent snapped at me as I expected.473Please respect copyright.PENANAzl1mEex3s0
473Please respect copyright.PENANAr3F3DyMrdB
I look at him with an evil grin, trying to make him even more outraged.473Please respect copyright.PENANAktRndyjZW2
473Please respect copyright.PENANAreR4F7GrSw
"Here!" Yelled JJ, throwing Agent his canteen to end the conflict.473Please respect copyright.PENANAvUuZ6jPmSs
473Please respect copyright.PENANAZwgl61n2h4
The canteen bounces off Agents shoulder and lands on the ground. Agent looks at the canteen and looks back at me. I can tell that he wants to say more but he holds back, which is a good idea for him. He wouldn't stand a chance in a verbal battle against me.473Please respect copyright.PENANA5MWdemf4QQ
473Please respect copyright.PENANAA6ZAqIxI4m
Agent then picks up the canteen and looks at JJ.473Please respect copyright.PENANApsGei9cKZo
473Please respect copyright.PENANAmDxoQtNcyQ
"But JJ, yours is only half full. You wont have much water for later," said Agent.473Please respect copyright.PENANAQQxeLS9eIN
473Please respect copyright.PENANAvCRmgrK8pv
"Don't worry ill just bum off Breaker for water if I need," Said JJ.473Please respect copyright.PENANAJ6rBRhN0Ko
473Please respect copyright.PENANAyQitQKdH7Y
"He's not going to give you any. He's fucking unreasonable," said Agent giving me a death glare.473Please respect copyright.PENANAqj21WXedd6
473Please respect copyright.PENANAi9A351u6vb
JJ Looks and me and says, "Breaker, can I have some water?"473Please respect copyright.PENANA7Tf5UfpjdU
473Please respect copyright.PENANAW0fCLOOTYu
"Of course," I answered quickly tossing him my full canteen.473Please respect copyright.PENANAqKopTLMegO
473Please respect copyright.PENANAmxFMxIMyTK
"You see Agent, you just gotta know how to ask for things," said JJ.473Please respect copyright.PENANAyEUNKNzECG
473Please respect copyright.PENANAkA0t1LiOiQ
I have a feeling JJ knows I’m trying to teach Agent and is actually going along with it. Me and JJ seem to be able to read each other as if we had twin telepathy or something.473Please respect copyright.PENANA6h4EXup0P0
473Please respect copyright.PENANAUqBxTkAIDN
"He just gave you some because he likes you more! No one is ever on my side! No one ever Defends me! People are always bias and defend the person they like, which is never me!" Snapped Agent with more emotion than I was going for. I must have triggered something more then just anger.473Please respect copyright.PENANAYKAfyWfiuJ
473Please respect copyright.PENANAs4wLq3jyNJ
"Agent you just don't know how to act or talk in these situations,” said JJ smoothly trying to calm Agent. “Its hard to explain, you will have to learn on your own. I think being around people like me and breaker will really help this."473Please respect copyright.PENANA8KjZy3hDY8
473Please respect copyright.PENANA7mmXCMUTbr
“I wasn't aggressive or anything when I asked Breaker,” defended Agent firmly. “I said please and everything and he still said no. He just hates me,"
473Please respect copyright.PENANAASkQR6Ep44
"Here’s a hint Agent,” I said. “Just because you said please and sounded sincere doesn't mean you weren't aggressive. There is more to communicating than manners.”473Please respect copyright.PENANAwLbMF5GnPg
473Please respect copyright.PENANAvLYIRYYYuF
"What do you mean?" asked Agent.473Please respect copyright.PENANAPr9kCtZHaP
473Please respect copyright.PENANAhiSRcQdu7w
I didn't respond with words, all I did was shake my head immediately regretting it.473Please respect copyright.PENANArlKCClBOom
473Please respect copyright.PENANAn5nzPE9Ug6
"Hey guys! I found a good place to set up camp!" called Sean unintentionally bailing me out.473Please respect copyright.PENANAHDJ7BpVkMD
473Please respect copyright.PENANAdZWoq2pV9J
"Wait, you weren't with us this whole time?" questioned Kyle.473Please respect copyright.PENANAbOFGua9oBi
473Please respect copyright.PENANA2i1gkiyA2q
"I went to look for a spot when Breaker and Agent started fighting, just on the other side of the bush there is a great spot for a camp," said Sean pointing to a bush.473Please respect copyright.PENANAFgHhbh99Cf
473Please respect copyright.PENANALrYLaWUAhY
"Lets check it out," said JJ.473Please respect copyright.PENANAVA8cgeKn0U
473Please respect copyright.PENANAt0bW0aIVHF
We walk over to the place Sean was talking about and inspected the area. There is a steady flowing creek that is clear enough to see the bottom, which is only a few feet from the surface. The ground is relatively flat other than the abundance of dead trees perfect for fire wood. Standing out from everything else, a giant rock that forms a big cave-like shelter from the rain that could easily fit all of us in it.473Please respect copyright.PENANAUPBEGRimfT
473Please respect copyright.PENANAdcd1MYOblb
"That rock will be our shelter for the night," said JJ pointing at the rock.473Please respect copyright.PENANAScvpIQfFXg
473Please respect copyright.PENANAbQqeYQXNVo
"This is a great find Sean, good work. But don't wonder off on your own again," Said JJ.473Please respect copyright.PENANA30t7AIQk7a
473Please respect copyright.PENANAkROIpDCH7l
"Ok, I'm sorry," mumbled Sean.473Please respect copyright.PENANAlm2a54uFGr
473Please respect copyright.PENANA2OJRXZef8F
"Ok guys lets set camp," announced JJ.473Please respect copyright.PENANAzAxSyGqXKZ
473Please respect copyright.PENANAlbGrVhvSfF
"I can collect more of this and make carpet for the shelter," said Sean pulling moss off the ground.473Please respect copyright.PENANAvIN7Gykcxt
473Please respect copyright.PENANAYwOwsPjjVB
"No Sean, that is not a priority," said JJ.473Please respect copyright.PENANAOgIihf0EpO
473Please respect copyright.PENANAcRCWlYi2J4
"Maine squad I need all of you to collect fire wood, and lots of it,” ordered JJ.473Please respect copyright.PENANATQVNfZeQqt
Kyle, Ashton, Connor, Sean and Hunter breakoff to collect wood.473Please respect copyright.PENANAik7nRaKuBo
“Andrew and Destroyer find something to cover the sides of the rock. Make the opening as small as possible,” Ordered JJ.473Please respect copyright.PENANAFoQSiu5CO9
“Agent study the map you found and see if you can find out where we are," Commanded JJ.473Please respect copyright.PENANACpKqN7vNYw
Agent lays his rifle on the ground and digs in his bag for the map.473Please respect copyright.PENANAaQvgwycJIE
473Please respect copyright.PENANA5LXvIgb0CH
"What do I do?" I asked.473Please respect copyright.PENANApr8hOPAxco
473Please respect copyright.PENANAUZT7B4Jwed
"Breaker, your hunting with me," said JJ picking up Agents silenced rifle. "you can bring Andrews gun, we don't want to make more noise then we need to. Also, id like to avoid a mess."473Please respect copyright.PENANAVlgOkPsqPz
“No Browning?” jokingly asked.473Please respect copyright.PENANAOqkapsFyUy
“No Browning,” Repeated JJ.473Please respect copyright.PENANAyiTkQQGoBZ
473Please respect copyright.PENANAYUASj0Cr76
Andrew tosses me his rifle and I catch it with my right hand. Then with my left hand, I throw my browning to him and the weight of it almost puts him on his ass.473Please respect copyright.PENANAJwPlJ8FPgX
473Please respect copyright.PENANAwEUSxrvZpH
"So where do we begin?" I questioned.473Please respect copyright.PENANAaPJwjIdm9v
473Please respect copyright.PENANAcSpfbq8Qd6
"Lets just see what we can find, lets go," Said JJ.473Please respect copyright.PENANAP6OkQJHKLM
473Please respect copyright.PENANAlxHTSdcdyi
--------------------------------------------------------------------------473Please respect copyright.PENANArIAhjnUQzM
After ten minutes of walking in the forest I look at the sun and see that we only have a couple hours left. We need food and we need it soon. I could go days without food but I can’t speak for the rest of the guys.473Please respect copyright.PENANAW8tYddHe3g
473Please respect copyright.PENANAPBGd3spWbx
Luck turns to my favour and through some trees I see an elk. 473Please respect copyright.PENANAQLnamBdL4d
473Please respect copyright.PENANAlDY9EGLokD
"JJ there’s an elk," I said pointing at the elk.473Please respect copyright.PENANA1beRqnAu3y
473Please respect copyright.PENANAv2KKPfuHx2
"I was hopping for something smaller that we are actually able to utilize. But we will make it work," Said JJ.473Please respect copyright.PENANAmiPIz7UZLH
473Please respect copyright.PENANAwMTjTzVnIr
Me and JJ aim at the elk and I wait for his signal to fire.473Please respect copyright.PENANAKY4xlPBu97
473Please respect copyright.PENANAWcbtrk4F0i
"Three, two, one. Fire!" ordered JJ.473Please respect copyright.PENANAnr8bXqDRET
473Please respect copyright.PENANA4ZwI4Ql27B
After the two gunshots the elk drops to the ground and me and JJ walk over to the corpse.473Please respect copyright.PENANAwHvcHbppzB
473Please respect copyright.PENANA3q58UQ0zVX
"So, how the fuck are we going to move this back to camp. Its too heavy for one of us to carry and too awkward for us both to carry it," said JJ.473Please respect copyright.PENANA13Pf2WaAbq
473Please respect copyright.PENANAYTRIi499Og
I pick up a fallen down young tree that isn't much bigger than a walking stick.473Please respect copyright.PENANAg38B4MOx8W
"This is how," I said holding the tree.473Please respect copyright.PENANAhaYhFIcehj
473Please respect copyright.PENANAWGA3WKkOOD
JJ looks at me with a confused expression. I take the strap off Andrews rifle and tie it around the elks front two legs.473Please respect copyright.PENANArJ97exm6QI
473Please respect copyright.PENANAcQ9bqN90xA
JJ follows my lead and does the same for the other two legs with Agents rile strap. Then I put the tree in between the legs but under the straps. I lift one end of the tree on my shoulder while JJ stands there.473Please respect copyright.PENANA6hkGbbIxu0
473Please respect copyright.PENANADi7TT13UAT
"This is a two-person job," I hinted to JJ.473Please respect copyright.PENANAbUgC5lkcjb
473Please respect copyright.PENANAPTlycIoTP9
JJ picks up the other end and the Elk dangles upside down with the straps keeping it on the tree. I draw my katana from my back and cut the elks throat. JJ gives me a discussed look, "That’s fucking nasty."473Please respect copyright.PENANAFYkbxhUdIk
473Please respect copyright.PENANAw36q2a55zZ
"You need to let the blood out or it will spoil," I explained.473Please respect copyright.PENANA0nNkuYaIlN
473Please respect copyright.PENANAIrRLYIC1QV
"Makes sense," responded JJ.473Please respect copyright.PENANAWHDiyNeY2i
473Please respect copyright.PENANAQwu8eCzCVa
We make our way back to the camp with an Elk that will fill all our belly’s.473Please respect copyright.PENANAvH8Y1X2Ag4
473Please respect copyright.PENANA3QeyxNdkwJ
We arrive at the camp and see a decent stack of wood, also the sides of the rock are covered by ferns. All of the guys are staring at me and JJ with the elk as if we were gods.473Please respect copyright.PENANAp6cc8wxKx5
473Please respect copyright.PENANAZfSLmBjYSH
"Holy shit that’s a good find!" said Connor.473Please respect copyright.PENANAUKAI8UsqRf
473Please respect copyright.PENANAlfiwrYVgpP
"Does anyone know how to prepare a freakin’ deer?" asked Kyle.473Please respect copyright.PENANAAgM4hm4HTj
473Please respect copyright.PENANASwZYPJcxIv
Its an Elk, not a Deer and I kinda know how to," I responded. "but we need a fire to cook the meat."473Please respect copyright.PENANAKCU1RsEMdp
473Please respect copyright.PENANAlMcEtzdrHe
"Look at all the fire wood we got. This should last us the night," said hunter.473Please respect copyright.PENANAmXGWs62OVG
473Please respect copyright.PENANAHDg7FH9c4E
"There is a saying where I'm from. If your wood pile looks big enough, get four times more. So ill start a fire while you guys get more wood," I said.473Please respect copyright.PENANA0Tgm8eJgeJ
473Please respect copyright.PENANAFd7NacHn6P
I glance in the shelter and see moss on the ground all over it.473Please respect copyright.PENANAEknANshqPQ
473Please respect copyright.PENANAPsrMBuCsWo
"What’s up with the moss?" I asked.473Please respect copyright.PENANAoDGlkr5jae
473Please respect copyright.PENANA6COqmXESmJ
"I made carpet for the shelter," said Sean with the proudest smile I've ever seen.473Please respect copyright.PENANAOM6YKUEETj
473Please respect copyright.PENANAlncVDDKbuM
JJ lets out a huge sign, but says nothing. He sets his end of the tree down and goes off to do something, I’m not really sure what. I set down my end of the tree and get started on the fire.473Please respect copyright.PENANAxJwPwpENzS
473Please respect copyright.PENANAXVHgxL8J3i
I make a tipi out of twigs and a tinder bundle out of some dried grass. Then I start scanning the ground.473Please respect copyright.PENANASQ2kV4iuFG
473Please respect copyright.PENANAd9o7iLqMmo
"What are you looking for Breaker?" asked Sean.473Please respect copyright.PENANAzvx1VqiVwR
473Please respect copyright.PENANAqd3DcPd1pg
"Well no one offered to give me a lighter so I'm looking for a flint rock," I said while picking up a rock. "actually, this is what I'm looking for."473Please respect copyright.PENANAnrL7vPFtJ1
473Please respect copyright.PENANAFCdUxmlK6R
“You actually know how to use a flint too Breaker?” asked Sean noticing I’ve shown a few of my tricks, “you must be a master survivalist back at home.”473Please respect copyright.PENANADRB4WuTot8
473Please respect copyright.PENANA73ZBfXwCKq
"Breaker is a typical lumberjack. He has the knowledge of nature and surviving, Its in his blood. Though he probably hasn’t ever actually needed to use them until today," said JJ carrying a stack of firewood, jumping into the conversation.473Please respect copyright.PENANAZzsVjdLPk3
473Please respect copyright.PENANAzaS4P8FE6J
"I know that you guys are hinting something but I don't know what it is," said Sean.473Please respect copyright.PENANAed0xhGH3Ty
473Please respect copyright.PENANAEvk5uTjRky
Me and JJ look at each other and chuckle.473Please respect copyright.PENANAzzJzu4pP7H
473Please respect copyright.PENANAG2THHFMzzk
I walk over to the wood tipi that I made and start striking the flint-rock to my katana causing sparks to fly. directing a decent spark to the tinder bundle is my goal here, unfortunately JJ is right. I’ve never actually done this. Only been shown for cultural purposes.473Please respect copyright.PENANAmtelkhBUzr
473Please respect copyright.PENANAJ2avzPB9nV
After twenty minutes of sparking I finally get the ember I need to start a fire. I start to blow on the glowing ember ever so lightly, making it glow brighter. The ember starts to smoke and I blow a little harder. I can feel the heat from the ember on my face, its almost there. I give one last breath and the bundle ignites. I put the burning bundle in the tipi and watch the flames grow.473Please respect copyright.PENANAXLveazgVjf
473Please respect copyright.PENANAsRDojTc1T9
Its odd how a small thing like a fire can help a situation so much. Its not only a heat and light source in the night, but mental relief as well. It gives a vibe that makes you feel safe.473Please respect copyright.PENANA2aRpRkfrnH
473Please respect copyright.PENANAB73G0lARTq
Kyle, being the only one around me, gets to see the fire first. he looks amazed for some reason, he looks like I just used some sort of witch craft to start the fire.473Please respect copyright.PENANAdnTdAICCpJ
473Please respect copyright.PENANALTDlrxHqDM
"Ok you’re definitely a Canadian, Breaker," Laughed Kyle.473Please respect copyright.PENANAqBzNkLdu3U
473Please respect copyright.PENANARtq070YzT5
So that makes two people who know and I'm impressed that Kyle was the second one. I’m guessing Sean will be that last one despite the heavy hints he's been given.473Please respect copyright.PENANAlUeLQnRrXU
473Please respect copyright.PENANAHDhRtfZGtV
"Impressive, you know my secret. But," I whispered into Kyle's ear, "don't tell anyone, see how long it takes the others to find out."473Please respect copyright.PENANAyh06EPAyiQ
473Please respect copyright.PENANAoJhJe0zjcl
Kyle laughs and says, "if you insist."473Please respect copyright.PENANAm5Qg8wAM45
473Please respect copyright.PENANArAiU1Vog9C
Agent and Andrew arrive with more firewood and their eyes light up like lightbulbs when they see the fire burning in front of our shelter.473Please respect copyright.PENANAAbwv1NV2AJ
473Please respect copyright.PENANAlx7CP437Kp
Agent runs up to the fire dropping the wood he was carrying. He puts his hands close to the flames trying to warm them up.473Please respect copyright.PENANAaFJjmPVzWi
473Please respect copyright.PENANAGquSDv0cpl
"Its so cold here!" Agent shivered with his hands basically touching to flames.473Please respect copyright.PENANAmYU2dvCaME
473Please respect copyright.PENANAtX0VeOrs0L
"Not really man it feels like about plus thirteen," I said realizing that I just gave away where I live.473Please respect copyright.PENANAmKFy3fIs0N
473Please respect copyright.PENANAvCN68kJM4m
"Ha! I knew it! You live in Canada! Metric system has blown your cover!" Said Agent in a surprisingly playful way. "but anyways I'm from Florida, so this is cold to me."473Please respect copyright.PENANAGzqDOkNPzT
473Please respect copyright.PENANAdDbjhcmVs7
"I’m from Jersey so this isn't bad, but I'm the kind of guy who wears shorts all year round," Said JJ.473Please respect copyright.PENANALsGBVVJTeJ
473Please respect copyright.PENANArGQqEKv17p
"Wait, Breakers from Canada?" asked Sean as a delayed response.473Please respect copyright.PENANAaeTkLr2G4Y
473Please respect copyright.PENANAnbWIp7q7VR
"We discussed this forever ago,” said Agent in his usual douche tone. “how are you just now processing this?"
473Please respect copyright.PENANA8m5OP79YtS
"I zoned out," confessed Sean.473Please respect copyright.PENANAS2s72IpvcR
473Please respect copyright.PENANAGazw9Qk1sX
"I’m from Mississippi so this cold is making my nipples hard as fuck," said Destroyer in his usual loud voice as he sits by the fire next to Agent.473Please respect copyright.PENANAG7FzBpgbOu
473Please respect copyright.PENANAiCINiKa43c
"Can I feel your nipples Destroyer?" Snickered Andrew in a seductive way as he try's to grab Destroyers nipples.473Please respect copyright.PENANACuQ66whIXS
473Please respect copyright.PENANAS73is3OV9j
"Fuck off man!" responded destroyer swatting Andrew’s hand away.473Please respect copyright.PENANAMtXPgB1q2m
473Please respect copyright.PENANAYjPrFUhDLA
Ignoring Andrew and Destroyer I go over to the tree still holding the elk and pick up one end. I wait for someone to pick up the other end to help me carry it over to the creek for cleaning. Kyle turns out to be the nice guy to come over and help me.473Please respect copyright.PENANAtz5mHh2kZq
473Please respect copyright.PENANAuSWJdwsPRB
"Where too?" asked Kyle while lifting the other side of the tree.473Please respect copyright.PENANAJu8AJEC5BX
473Please respect copyright.PENANA1li8UH8McC
"The creek," I responded.473Please respect copyright.PENANA9lT99QaQhV
473Please respect copyright.PENANAdAwNXmo5Nx
We take the elk over to the creek and place it to the side. I draw my katana and cut it open at the belly. First, I take out the internal organs and put them aside. Second, I very carefully start to skin the elk, I messed up a couple times and it has a couple of cuts but its still in one piece. Third I hang up the hide to dry and harden in the sun. Fourth I cut the elk meat into strips for easy cooking. Fifth, I wash the blood off the meat and my hands afterword’s. And lastly, I just need to find something to hold these over the fire at the right height.473Please respect copyright.PENANA0XPOAlW8i1
473Please respect copyright.PENANAG5tVOlJjmN
I walk over to the fire and see that Sean already beat me to it.473Please respect copyright.PENANACDvpqtMqSJ
473Please respect copyright.PENANAhtdeFZae9X
"Breaker I made a grill out of wood for you, its sorta adjustable too," Said Sean standing beside his man-made grilled of sticks.473Please respect copyright.PENANAizG2Z75TnP
473Please respect copyright.PENANAOkREWQ3bq2
"You made us a grill Sean, it benefits all of us," I said to Sean.473Please respect copyright.PENANAYJ63b4Yyq5
473Please respect copyright.PENANAwcw65m3mpo
Sean looks at me waiting for me to say more.473Please respect copyright.PENANA1Cg3i00Mvo
473Please respect copyright.PENANAmVS9uZfs8M
"Do you like it?" he asked.473Please respect copyright.PENANA1kzmD3ojEX
473Please respect copyright.PENANAmG1aC4CydD
"It must be my birth day for such a present," I said trying to make Sean happy.473Please respect copyright.PENANAi6zVZtlHwj
473Please respect copyright.PENANAtmKxRZgsQT
"Wont the meat go bad in a few days without refrigeration?" asked Sean.473Please respect copyright.PENANAWa9spwf3iF
473Please respect copyright.PENANAwMQBmjaQfC
"Normally yes, but I’m going to smoke cook it to dry it out. Then it should last anywhere from two weeks to two months depending on how well its done," I responded.473Please respect copyright.PENANA85CqztVzuk
473Please respect copyright.PENANA3NsjBuHq8p
Sean sits beside me and watches me lay the meat on the grill he made. After a few moments of silence, Sean says in a low tone, "Breaker. Are we going to get rescued? Or are they going to let us die here?"473Please respect copyright.PENANACzNffnBd9T
473Please respect copyright.PENANATjg2F01zjY
"Sean, what did I tell you, you are going to be ok," I reminded Sean.473Please respect copyright.PENANAuIXEa7O0Rq

Sean looks at his feet and opens his mouth to say something but nothing comes out. I realize that the wind has been getting colder over the past couple minutes.473Please respect copyright.PENANAWqRobWxtOa

"Has anyone seen Agent lately?" called out Ashton who just came from the creek.473Please respect copyright.PENANAnnfpdYLGOL

"Last I saw him he was here at the fire, but that was before I cleaned the elk," I said. "He is probably keeping out of the wind. Did anyone check in the shelter?”473Please respect copyright.PENANAV4hGFYSeh7
No one says anything so I go look for myself.473Please respect copyright.PENANA4aBJ9B7kcs
I rush to the shelter and see Agent curled up in a ball shaking like a crack addict. Despite his darker skin his face is white like snow and I can hear his teeth chattering from here. Shit, this isn’t good, the sun is almost fully down and the temperature will likely drop below freezing. I fear the sudden weather change has taken a tole on Agents immune system. We have to act quick, you know we’re in trouble when our biggest enemy on German soil is Mother Nature.473Please respect copyright.PENANAe6ZPxehGPn
