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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAHAq8UOsWP3
518Please respect copyright.PENANAgtDLVlyyEF
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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAHmUNZhCU5Z
518Please respect copyright.PENANA9JW5Qr1yNS
"We only have about three and a half hours of sunlight, we should stop and make camp," I said.518Please respect copyright.PENANAyBHpNbsGgl
518Please respect copyright.PENANAYtABsKVS5N
"I was thinking the same thing," said JJ. "we just need to find a good place to set up camp."518Please respect copyright.PENANAAmqUFh3ZlQ
518Please respect copyright.PENANAUU7C8379eh
"What’s wrong with right here?" asked Agent.518Please respect copyright.PENANA6WA1Os2pJf
518Please respect copyright.PENANAyQXtu5P6Ya
"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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAXdRWCEdQ0M
518Please respect copyright.PENANAcOpAYdCzAn
"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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAiuYm9muTUN
518Please respect copyright.PENANAMh71hq626r
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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAqYFFHy0mwq
518Please respect copyright.PENANAuVkZflVWxm
"Agent are you out of water already?" asked JJ.518Please respect copyright.PENANA8md3xIyYb4
518Please respect copyright.PENANAqKhxnZErGk
"Yes! We have been walking all day and it made me thirsty," Agent replied trying to justify his careless rationing.518Please respect copyright.PENANARQ1JSFW5Ay
518Please respect copyright.PENANA6BzLIpkWlK
"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?"518Please respect copyright.PENANApknTDZrBoJ
518Please respect copyright.PENANAXC6SKTjU7V
"I have a full canteen still," I said.518Please respect copyright.PENANAzCC1oCAdWd
518Please respect copyright.PENANA8skrhxIpDs
"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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAjNcmBue532
518Please respect copyright.PENANA2iXAPnqMDr
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.518Please respect copyright.PENANA8wUJryHuxb
518Please respect copyright.PENANAIyZcGtIAI4
"Hmmmmm, no," I refused.518Please respect copyright.PENANAmkXIlm6xdY
518Please respect copyright.PENANArrecjGAJqN
"What why! Your canteen is full!" Said Agent more aggressively.518Please respect copyright.PENANAqsm7XRnZz7
518Please respect copyright.PENANAE02sb4FQp3
"Maybe you should have been smarter with your own water," I said.518Please respect copyright.PENANAK4uTyFxDIf
518Please respect copyright.PENANAnioZbrvtAt
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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAN5pSCWChoT
518Please respect copyright.PENANACTA2KkA6o1
"Don't be a fucking asshole Breaker!" Agent snapped at me as I expected.518Please respect copyright.PENANAxMC3p2H88x
518Please respect copyright.PENANAyzHYyfCPzm
I look at him with an evil grin, trying to make him even more outraged.518Please respect copyright.PENANA3ClGNuq3Ah
518Please respect copyright.PENANADB14doAGre
"Here!" Yelled JJ, throwing Agent his canteen to end the conflict.518Please respect copyright.PENANAtifU01HDxU
518Please respect copyright.PENANA8LUsTnC5sg
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.518Please respect copyright.PENANA2AlBNhNzli
518Please respect copyright.PENANA4uvqySgPU2
Agent then picks up the canteen and looks at JJ.518Please respect copyright.PENANAKQAHyv5Mrl
518Please respect copyright.PENANAYmcjARu3Ta
"But JJ, yours is only half full. You wont have much water for later," said Agent.518Please respect copyright.PENANAsdGVHOUDx4
518Please respect copyright.PENANAoclATcy5X4
"Don't worry ill just bum off Breaker for water if I need," Said JJ.518Please respect copyright.PENANA1FaRyanMQu
518Please respect copyright.PENANAivlRJdpbZZ
"He's not going to give you any. He's fucking unreasonable," said Agent giving me a death glare.518Please respect copyright.PENANA82MQys0n7K
518Please respect copyright.PENANAoVtcnak4aM
JJ Looks and me and says, "Breaker, can I have some water?"518Please respect copyright.PENANArbY9IS5IYl
518Please respect copyright.PENANAKrsXXTxter
"Of course," I answered quickly tossing him my full canteen.518Please respect copyright.PENANANNEL3u4nKv
518Please respect copyright.PENANA8Gy2aM4C7R
"You see Agent, you just gotta know how to ask for things," said JJ.518Please respect copyright.PENANA3dIJX2eLBD
518Please respect copyright.PENANAnCq36W4ld1
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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAsaRe7wlruq
518Please respect copyright.PENANAxLBY6wop2e
"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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAceCigf4qS3
518Please respect copyright.PENANAYlZKXVLJ1U
"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."518Please respect copyright.PENANA98HQQKT4sI
518Please respect copyright.PENANAlUnvDsRT9p
“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,"
518Please respect copyright.PENANArMhYlW5nqQ
"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.”518Please respect copyright.PENANAcf8HPllY3B
518Please respect copyright.PENANAjvkSBXsckx
"What do you mean?" asked Agent.518Please respect copyright.PENANAaocXBI9x0z
518Please respect copyright.PENANAyTZxFk6QG4
I didn't respond with words, all I did was shake my head immediately regretting it.518Please respect copyright.PENANABkPVXe4kCP
518Please respect copyright.PENANATWIvG8BlhQ
"Hey guys! I found a good place to set up camp!" called Sean unintentionally bailing me out.518Please respect copyright.PENANAz3nUCrHtJv
518Please respect copyright.PENANAaXqvL80X3b
"Wait, you weren't with us this whole time?" questioned Kyle.518Please respect copyright.PENANAprT5AUdkIZ
518Please respect copyright.PENANAPmPOmhtot5
"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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAgPsfKicY2L
518Please respect copyright.PENANA5GxmLKTFKU
"Lets check it out," said JJ.518Please respect copyright.PENANAwQOu26IVRS
518Please respect copyright.PENANAYyRDrVhsIP
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.518Please respect copyright.PENANA3mFT6zneCM
518Please respect copyright.PENANAZNkxkXKUOR
"That rock will be our shelter for the night," said JJ pointing at the rock.518Please respect copyright.PENANAi3G22Ni4bj
518Please respect copyright.PENANABSlkjN0l30
"This is a great find Sean, good work. But don't wonder off on your own again," Said JJ.518Please respect copyright.PENANA1IQnq7QTn8
518Please respect copyright.PENANAt2hsgo3iLX
"Ok, I'm sorry," mumbled Sean.518Please respect copyright.PENANAUJqz2dO35f
518Please respect copyright.PENANAQOtAh1W8b6
"Ok guys lets set camp," announced JJ.518Please respect copyright.PENANAzqEDqAXdM3
518Please respect copyright.PENANADf2Vauk04z
"I can collect more of this and make carpet for the shelter," said Sean pulling moss off the ground.518Please respect copyright.PENANAqMDad2b8uA
518Please respect copyright.PENANA0CWGq5KnJC
"No Sean, that is not a priority," said JJ.518Please respect copyright.PENANA6jYKaGtvE8
518Please respect copyright.PENANARNgtGPG8V7
"Maine squad I need all of you to collect fire wood, and lots of it,” ordered JJ.518Please respect copyright.PENANAhWSPHYS3nG
Kyle, Ashton, Connor, Sean and Hunter breakoff to collect wood.518Please respect copyright.PENANAIodmagQOOW
“Andrew and Destroyer find something to cover the sides of the rock. Make the opening as small as possible,” Ordered JJ.518Please respect copyright.PENANA99JGHzjq2i
“Agent study the map you found and see if you can find out where we are," Commanded JJ.518Please respect copyright.PENANAfyG78UQaAU
Agent lays his rifle on the ground and digs in his bag for the map.518Please respect copyright.PENANAv20lq0BkHe
518Please respect copyright.PENANAyMeEXU7o7m
"What do I do?" I asked.518Please respect copyright.PENANABGZRx7yFH6
518Please respect copyright.PENANA6WjNXgc00S
"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."518Please respect copyright.PENANARYhQZ9IaSP
“No Browning?” jokingly asked.518Please respect copyright.PENANAAGiMM7q2mt
“No Browning,” Repeated JJ.518Please respect copyright.PENANAZjyZx7ZoEf
518Please respect copyright.PENANADE2x95JPus
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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAsKiM5XdWQP
518Please respect copyright.PENANApmcO9Z6MAs
"So where do we begin?" I questioned.518Please respect copyright.PENANAmQxmqXS8NB
518Please respect copyright.PENANAaBROWajkS7
"Lets just see what we can find, lets go," Said JJ.518Please respect copyright.PENANAT6DoIvkfin
518Please respect copyright.PENANAe0OwIgXrjZ
--------------------------------------------------------------------------518Please respect copyright.PENANAWxaF5m1I6M
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.518Please respect copyright.PENANA5uRlBeI9W4
518Please respect copyright.PENANAX2E5N3UXhH
Luck turns to my favour and through some trees I see an elk. 518Please respect copyright.PENANAaCo3AAtqBr
518Please respect copyright.PENANA4sCW1wuMYT
"JJ there’s an elk," I said pointing at the elk.518Please respect copyright.PENANAU5PvGBGc1a
518Please respect copyright.PENANAll65MyRUwH
"I was hopping for something smaller that we are actually able to utilize. But we will make it work," Said JJ.518Please respect copyright.PENANA51OxV1zytd
518Please respect copyright.PENANATLn4aHnInA
Me and JJ aim at the elk and I wait for his signal to fire.518Please respect copyright.PENANARs03ZPqw5i
518Please respect copyright.PENANAAe0qoSudii
"Three, two, one. Fire!" ordered JJ.518Please respect copyright.PENANALRxWIzNwbj
518Please respect copyright.PENANAOXwqWgStXc
After the two gunshots the elk drops to the ground and me and JJ walk over to the corpse.518Please respect copyright.PENANAknkTOcjrWC
518Please respect copyright.PENANA9ifBlIahCF
"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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAnvyZgf9pdV
518Please respect copyright.PENANANhTDnRDUF2
I pick up a fallen down young tree that isn't much bigger than a walking stick.518Please respect copyright.PENANAJplvAmp0km
"This is how," I said holding the tree.518Please respect copyright.PENANARbAVo57zww
518Please respect copyright.PENANA67ntj6zk9X
JJ looks at me with a confused expression. I take the strap off Andrews rifle and tie it around the elks front two legs.518Please respect copyright.PENANANcAoGOhGlj
518Please respect copyright.PENANAx5ppnTqYJo
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.518Please respect copyright.PENANA17wAP4I1zk
518Please respect copyright.PENANAWr6zzvniQ5
"This is a two-person job," I hinted to JJ.518Please respect copyright.PENANAfkczCnxBTI
518Please respect copyright.PENANAmZGVJANejG
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."518Please respect copyright.PENANAgKsqCTHPaE
518Please respect copyright.PENANA1cHwyNVp8M
"You need to let the blood out or it will spoil," I explained.518Please respect copyright.PENANAp0mmbL6mM3
518Please respect copyright.PENANAzHN9MCSGiE
"Makes sense," responded JJ.518Please respect copyright.PENANAUfw7gX74os
518Please respect copyright.PENANAMyUbMoH7XX
We make our way back to the camp with an Elk that will fill all our belly’s.518Please respect copyright.PENANAnDVpibzLI2
518Please respect copyright.PENANASXcTo8UYYh
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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAJ0ICWVBqrz
518Please respect copyright.PENANAvzx98bzTCg
"Holy shit that’s a good find!" said Connor.518Please respect copyright.PENANAUumsf4BoOT
518Please respect copyright.PENANAR1idmbTKcm
"Does anyone know how to prepare a freakin’ deer?" asked Kyle.518Please respect copyright.PENANA9Jo0AU6wJV
518Please respect copyright.PENANAbWKpxNdmRC
Its an Elk, not a Deer and I kinda know how to," I responded. "but we need a fire to cook the meat."518Please respect copyright.PENANAPjc5hogq1D
518Please respect copyright.PENANAuyZaMBMWpu
"Look at all the fire wood we got. This should last us the night," said hunter.518Please respect copyright.PENANAWLiObBN6b6
518Please respect copyright.PENANAgIXYvcoAHy
"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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAJGG7At7TU3
518Please respect copyright.PENANAs58H3qD0QU
I glance in the shelter and see moss on the ground all over it.518Please respect copyright.PENANAVm0M29IZFM
518Please respect copyright.PENANA7MEgi0Xxld
"What’s up with the moss?" I asked.518Please respect copyright.PENANAqer0ruh7yF
518Please respect copyright.PENANAwC0291eiXK
"I made carpet for the shelter," said Sean with the proudest smile I've ever seen.518Please respect copyright.PENANAuHq2AMdhnk
518Please respect copyright.PENANA6um5zNy0Wo
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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAXhU091xTIK
518Please respect copyright.PENANAfLvCZ1kBak
I make a tipi out of twigs and a tinder bundle out of some dried grass. Then I start scanning the ground.518Please respect copyright.PENANA93Y2XIVzK0
518Please respect copyright.PENANALA83oYTFqT
"What are you looking for Breaker?" asked Sean.518Please respect copyright.PENANA6jcWK0ydAC
518Please respect copyright.PENANA57Vxb3Ac1u
"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."518Please respect copyright.PENANAlZnxTu1BZf
518Please respect copyright.PENANAtWFtSDh6YE
“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.”518Please respect copyright.PENANAWMjSFxdE2k
518Please respect copyright.PENANAkJshxHUzRF
"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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAvzqan8n1Vo
518Please respect copyright.PENANA22Ctv2It76
"I know that you guys are hinting something but I don't know what it is," said Sean.518Please respect copyright.PENANA1OFli8fx1B
518Please respect copyright.PENANAEkw5cG2jvr
Me and JJ look at each other and chuckle.518Please respect copyright.PENANAC9oQ0JObhN
518Please respect copyright.PENANAChO7NUD77d
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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAFgApuSCeWw
518Please respect copyright.PENANAgflWoQfNsA
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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAEqpcbySy9c
518Please respect copyright.PENANAX4skueAsuU
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.518Please respect copyright.PENANA38qamJwoUF
518Please respect copyright.PENANAjXTmJHXv3T
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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAGBYOCkKcwc
518Please respect copyright.PENANAL3ynyx1Jf8
"Ok you’re definitely a Canadian, Breaker," Laughed Kyle.518Please respect copyright.PENANADy3wepUTPq
518Please respect copyright.PENANAcrvp0iYWcy
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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAH83gTJGr5O
518Please respect copyright.PENANAtLOaktCAo2
"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."518Please respect copyright.PENANA5e8yhRMHNm
518Please respect copyright.PENANAsC3ucCgBJK
Kyle laughs and says, "if you insist."518Please respect copyright.PENANAaL6Rva2BbC
518Please respect copyright.PENANA4Doc6Jn6k2
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.518Please respect copyright.PENANA3ImefnUw69
518Please respect copyright.PENANAeuXnY02sJU
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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAeoygNyszw6
518Please respect copyright.PENANAyW1aD1jImW
"Its so cold here!" Agent shivered with his hands basically touching to flames.518Please respect copyright.PENANASBFqGVUjvc
518Please respect copyright.PENANAjoTscTaK0p
"Not really man it feels like about plus thirteen," I said realizing that I just gave away where I live.518Please respect copyright.PENANAERHaTGPPsT
518Please respect copyright.PENANAXPawH6y0AB
"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."518Please respect copyright.PENANAMszV4VZrwL
518Please respect copyright.PENANABrZkPPbQ5G
"I’m from Jersey so this isn't bad, but I'm the kind of guy who wears shorts all year round," Said JJ.518Please respect copyright.PENANAZUPCmuhbrZ
518Please respect copyright.PENANAmZpRhCuymD
"Wait, Breakers from Canada?" asked Sean as a delayed response.518Please respect copyright.PENANAoJaA9sMawc
518Please respect copyright.PENANAp2sJyWgXEJ
"We discussed this forever ago,” said Agent in his usual douche tone. “how are you just now processing this?"
518Please respect copyright.PENANA674xxCoYIF
"I zoned out," confessed Sean.518Please respect copyright.PENANA6XgtUFa5Kt
518Please respect copyright.PENANAPQtexi3lcq
"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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAuYYm92bSGw
518Please respect copyright.PENANABbgNQDbJsS
"Can I feel your nipples Destroyer?" Snickered Andrew in a seductive way as he try's to grab Destroyers nipples.518Please respect copyright.PENANAeN5vPi1Uf2
518Please respect copyright.PENANAOdYS7TPlHj
"Fuck off man!" responded destroyer swatting Andrew’s hand away.518Please respect copyright.PENANAN7LkDZRQu1
518Please respect copyright.PENANAz0NBQsuK6p
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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAb1Rb2IR8VC
518Please respect copyright.PENANAis8cz147vD
"Where too?" asked Kyle while lifting the other side of the tree.518Please respect copyright.PENANA1zSkfWCFUx
518Please respect copyright.PENANAwzWtGXqjEu
"The creek," I responded.518Please respect copyright.PENANAxQL6tY5PUH
518Please respect copyright.PENANABLW2pJBLlo
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.518Please respect copyright.PENANA8o9grTV96l
518Please respect copyright.PENANA5KKwIFq3DE
I walk over to the fire and see that Sean already beat me to it.518Please respect copyright.PENANARL5qMSIgEa
518Please respect copyright.PENANAzlCfPvcXC8
"Breaker I made a grill out of wood for you, its sorta adjustable too," Said Sean standing beside his man-made grilled of sticks.518Please respect copyright.PENANAXNDqTDIHu7
518Please respect copyright.PENANAEBUpHp8zVR
"You made us a grill Sean, it benefits all of us," I said to Sean.518Please respect copyright.PENANAyWCFdKoHDb
518Please respect copyright.PENANAses5nLKomX
Sean looks at me waiting for me to say more.518Please respect copyright.PENANAtC0x1dIU3o
518Please respect copyright.PENANAc4VNoZgMEF
"Do you like it?" he asked.518Please respect copyright.PENANA65beqQI2kE
518Please respect copyright.PENANAYQZUZkEuhB
"It must be my birth day for such a present," I said trying to make Sean happy.518Please respect copyright.PENANADlvYp5wNDd
518Please respect copyright.PENANAoJkXhxy9UF
"Wont the meat go bad in a few days without refrigeration?" asked Sean.518Please respect copyright.PENANATDKDoB0SK9
518Please respect copyright.PENANAbMcPqMNwPt
"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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAgwAjDe5o62
518Please respect copyright.PENANAconqraE4CY
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?"518Please respect copyright.PENANAVKESLTZxvu
518Please respect copyright.PENANAQTU9SgDX7r
"Sean, what did I tell you, you are going to be ok," I reminded Sean.518Please respect copyright.PENANAXPgnHj09cn

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.518Please respect copyright.PENANACCrroos7zT

"Has anyone seen Agent lately?" called out Ashton who just came from the creek.518Please respect copyright.PENANA2H7CCXz7oi

"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?”518Please respect copyright.PENANAW1RdYgWVTx
No one says anything so I go look for myself.518Please respect copyright.PENANAJOO8Vdj7yG
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.518Please respect copyright.PENANAkfuIdBuMOc
