The Race for Life and Death
By Josh Mason
“Josh, wake up”!
That Voice…its Josh’s...But what is he doing here? Wait, where am I? I’m staring at an unfamiliar ceiling.
“Josh, where are we?” I say.
“I don’t know man, I woke up in here, as you did”
The morning light wrinkles my eyes. The air is hot and stuffy; very humid. I look around, we’re in a hut type of house, straw ceiling. I see some old bureaus and tables around the hut.
“Look around for anything that can give us a hint to where we are” he
says.
I get up, look around.
“Nothing” I say “I don’t see anything”
I walk a few steps, “ahh,” I fall to my knees.
“What’s wrong?” he says.
“My heart. Pain”.
I dig through my pocket for some painkillers, for I had thought I had some the night before, when I was in my own bed. Instead, I feel something, an envelope? I pull it out.
“What’s that” Josh says.
“A letter, I’ll read it out loud”.
I open it up, it reads:
Dear Josh Mason and Josh Blancett,
You by now are awake and most likely wondering where you are. I will tell you. Last night, we kidnapped you both, along with 4 other people. You have been put on to respective teams of two. 3 teams. We have placed you in the suburbs of Buenos Aires, Argentina. You must race with your team member, Josh, against the other teams to Ciudad Juarez, Mexico.
You must win if you want to survive, why you ask? Implanted in your hearts are small bombs. To deactivate these bombs, you must get you and your partner’s keys in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico. But when one team deactivates their bombs, the other teams’ Bombs will explode. Good Luck Friend, and be careful, I’m sure the other teams will be looking to eliminate you before you make it there...
~Lord Zomo~
“That’s why my heart hurts…”, I say
“Now that you mention it; mine is a little sore also” he responds
“Well, we must get started, we will get there, find the sick-o who did
this, And kill him!” he says with excitement (a little bit too excited I think)
“After we save ourselves”
“Yes of course”
We walk outside of the hut, we look around, yet there is nothing there, except pampas and Knolls as far the eye can see. We start walking, and wondering why this is happening to us? What did we do? Who is this guy? could we really go on with our lives knowing we killed 4 people? Maybe even kids? Or will we even survive? All these thoughts floated in my mind. We walked in Silence for a few minutes.
“What are we going to do if we run into another team?” I ask
“Well, simply, if they’re hostile we fight, if not we’ll see if we
can work together”
“But what about when we get to the end?”
“We would have to fight it out there I guess”
“Well, if we do work together with them, we would have to watch out
in case they back stab us”
“Don’t worry, we’ll be fine”
“I know, I wasn’t worried”
We go over the next knoll, we see a small dirt road, with an elderly women walking on it, we race to her.
“Excuse me ma’am!” He yells
“Josh, she doesn’t speak english”
“Not a problem”
“Perdon, donde esta la de Buenos aires?
“Siga este camino cinco millas de del sur y usted no puede faltarlo”
“Gracias”
“Wow,” I sputter “I forgot you speak Spanish”
“Well I am half Mexican”
“True, but what did she say?”
“I asked which way Buenos Aires is and she said 5 miles south, which
is this way.”
We said thanks to the kind lady, and kept walking, now down the road. Every once in awhile we went into a brief jog to get there faster. About 3 long hours later we arrived. We looked at the city; it wasn’t big, yet wasn’t small either. As we entered the city gates, we look around, old streets, with brick square roads.
“Well, we’re here, what should we do?” He asks.
“Well, we have no money, the only useful thing we have is your
bilingual talent. Lets try to find a map, and a compass”
“Right, but be on the look out for other lost Americans, we might find another team.”
We walked down some streets, with no luck, just found some old stores with not very many Items. We see some food stands, which reminds us, we haven’t eaten for a long time, we were hungry!
“Dude, that looks so good…I’m so hungry!” he says
“Too bad we don’t got any money…”
“maybe we can…”
“dude, are you crazy, we can’t steal from them!
“wow dude, how could u think I would do that? I was just
going to say try trading food for work…or a kunai1 or something”
“Oh, right”
“Perdoname senor, no tenemos ningún dinero sino que quisiéramos intercambiar este cuchillo para dos rodillos”
“tres rodillos y su un reparto”
“Le agradecen muy bien”
So we traded one of our kunai for three rolls, and we ate them, we were
still hungry, but it was okay. One Kunai wasn’t that big of deal, and we have a lot of them in our weapon pouch, which we use for fighting. We walked a few Blocks with no luck of any information, then, we came to a river by the city, And we found a tourist information tower, with tours of the river. So we Went to the information shop, and thankfully we found some maps of the City, we couldn’t find a compass though, which we would need to navigate North west to Bolivia. Hopefully here there was someway of fast transportation, maybe by bus, or even by boat maybe. We see 2 guys, they look American, they were speaking English, and looked like they were on a Vacation, this was the perfect chance. Us two 15 year olds might get some Sympathy and maybe some money, since we were all alone.
“Excuse me sirs,” I say
“yes?” one of them responds
“umm, sorry to disturb you, but we’re lost, and since your fellow Americans, I was wondering if you could help us.”
“we are your parents?”
“well, there not exactly here…”
“they at a hotel somewhere?”
“no…”
“then where are they?”
“uhh…do you have a cell phone we can borrow?”
“I guess, here”
I try to call my house, but, there’s no service, I asked them why, they
But said they weren’t sure. They said that from that spot they had just
made a long distance call to California. We tried a few different places but
the cell phone wasn’t working. I hear someone yelling, “Darn it! Why won’t
this phone work! The lady from the information center was having problems
also as we saw. Why weren’t any phones working when we got there.
Could it have been, something that whoever put us here did? We thanked
Them for there troubles and asked if the had a map of Latin America, instead
of just Buenos Aires, they said yes and let us have a small atlas. We also
asked them for a compass but they said they didn’t have one .We thanked them for
their trouble and set off again. Then I remember something my dad taught
me in Boy Scouts a long time ago. I found a dirt area and threw a kunai
straight in the ground. He asked me what I was doing and I told him that if we stick a kunai in the ground, mark the tip of its shadow with another kunai, wait 15 minutes then mark the tip of the shadow again with another kunai. The first mark would be west, the second east. So we do so, and then head to that part of the city. At the bus station, we see a man waiting there. Josh asked him where the bus was going, he replied it was going to Rosario, a city northwest from here. Perfect, we would be on our way to freedom! The bus arrives, then we remember we don’t have any money! We knew pulling out a kunai might make them think we were hostile so we look
for a solution when climbing on. But the bus driver stops us. I don’t know
what he was saying, but I figured he wanted money, which we didn’t
have. Josh says something to him, trying to get some sympathy from him,
but the bus driver didn’t seem like he was budging. Josh tells me he’s about
to call security, so we, sadly, start to get off. But then, a girl, looking about
the age of 16 or 17, blonde hair, beautiful stature, looking American, comes
up to the bus driver, talks to him in Spanish, and gives him some money.
The bus driver then let us on!
“Here” She says, “You guys come sit with me”
Amazed and stunned at what she did, we followed her in silence,
Ignoring the fact that she might be part of one of the other teams.
“uh, thanks for back there” I murmur.
“No problem, well where are you guys from?”
“Well, we live in Texas, central Texas to be more exact”
“what are you all doing here by yourselves?”
“We could ask you the same question” Josh says.
“Well, I’m just um, visiting. My friend is waiting in Rosario, where are you all headed?”
“We’re actually headed to Mexico”
“Wow you are far away from there, where in Mexico?”
“Actually Ciudad Juarez, if You’ve heard of it”
Right then, when I mentioned that, her eyes that were full of my
energy and excitement just a few moments ago turned to stern, surprised,
dark cold eyes. After a second of Silence, they light up again.
“Well that’s neat, do you need somewhere to stay for the night?”
“Would it be to much trouble for you?” Josh answered
“oh no, not at all, my friend in Rosario is friends with the innkeeper there, I’m sure I can get you two a room stay.”
“Wow, thanks so much, we’ve just been on a streak of bad luck until we met you, thanks so much!”
“Its not a problem! In fact, we can even give you some food!”
“Thank you so much, but, we didn’t catch you name, what is it?”
“Oh, sorry, I forgot, my name is Laura, yours?”
“Well my name is Josh, and here, his name is also Josh”
“Wow, that’s cool in a weird way, two good friends traveling together with the same name, that neat”
“Laura…” I said Softly “That’s a Beautiful name”
“Why thank you! Well, its good to meet you two.”
We talked about simple things, the weather, our families, my relationship with Josh, knowing each other for over four
years now. Really good friends. She told us that she is from south
Dakota, along with her best friend Jessica. After about an hour of small talk, we finally arrived in Rosario. She showed us around a few street corners and finally arrived at an inn. We walked inside, and she said hello to the innkeeper, who spoke English, and then another girl, also about 16 years old walked down the stairs into the room. She was normal sized girl, not to short, not to tall, with short Brown hair, about to her ears. She was beautiful, as was Laura.
“Jessica” Laura says, “this is Josh and Josh, they are travelers on there
way to Mexico. And Josh and Josh, this is Jessica, my friend.”
“Good to meet you two” She says “will they need food and a
room to stay?”
“ Yes they will, I invited them to come”
“Well, that won’t be a problem, I will just need to make a few
arrangements, nana, is this ok?”
“Of course Jessica” Says the innkeeper, “here is their room key, just
go set them up a room”
“You two have something to drink, Laura, will you come with me?”
We sat down at a bar type set up, and had some water, and some crackers. Nana said that dinner would be ready soon, so not to totally fill up.
“Jessica, what should we do with them? They’re obviously another
team, but they seem like nice guys, I don’t want to hurt them, and the shorter Josh is a hottie, I don’t want to this, but for our own sakes…”
“Laura, its ok calm down, we have a few choices, if we tell them that
we are another team, they might hurt or kill us, unless there not that type of guys…but we can’t take a chance, maybe we won’t have to kill them, maybe just-
“Just knock them out. We can sneak some stuff into there
drinks, just to conk them out for long enough for us to get a good head start…”
“But then they would die anyway when we get there”
“What should we do?”
“The only thing we can do Laura…”
“What’s that?”
“Kill them, sneak some sleeping powder in there drinks then we’ll
take them to separate rooms then…”
“Jessica…”
“I know you don’t want to this, but we must, we have to…”
“ I understand…”
After about 10 minutes, the girls came back downstairs.
“Hey guys, your room is ready, but dinner is also ready, so lets eat!”
We went into a room in the back, with a big table full of food, from Argentinean rolls to Mexican tacos. Josh and I were so hungry we ate like we hadn’t eaten in days! It was a wondrous feast.
“Here, we have something special for you boys to drink, it’s a special
Argentinean tea, drink up!”
After we ate Laura invited Josh into her room upstairs, and of course, he said yes. And after that I excused my self and went up to our room. I started to scribble on a piece of parchment, just some feelings. I heard a knock at the door.
“Come in” I say
“Hi, uh, Josh, just wanted to see if you wanted to hang out…
you know since Laura and the other Josh are there…
“Who are you trying to fool?”
“Why, what are you talking about?”
“Don’t play dumb.”
“I don’t know what your talking about…”
She starts moving closer.
“What are you writing on that parchment there?”
“If you want to know, it’s a poem I’ve been writing, and just finished”
“What is it about”
“That’s none of your business”
“Is it a girl?”
“What are you trying to do”
“Let me read it”
“Fine”
I hand it to her, she reads aloud:
Past Memories by Josh Mason
Now That I’m Down
I Went to turn around
And Looked at What I Had
Before I Felt This Bad
She Was All Mine
Why Was I So Blind?
I See Her All the Time
It Hurts Me Inside
It Floats In My Mind
I Had Her All That Time
Why Did What happened Happen
Why Did I Do What I Did
“An…old girlfriend?"
"Sort of, I miss her dearly, not as a girlfriend but..."
"But what"
"I miss he presence, as a friend, aside from our relationship, i miss, just being her friend."
"I…I must go"
"Don’t do this"
“what?”
“I’m not as easy to be tricked as my friend, I know what you
put in my tea, I didn’t Drink it.
“How Did you know?”
“I sensed it, I know your another team, and I don’t want to hurt you
or your friend, but if you become hostile, I’ll have no choice.
In fact I’m going to go save my dimwitted friend right now”
I left her in the room, went down the hall to their room, I try to open it up, but it was locked. Then I kicked it down the door. I see Josh with his shirt off conked out, Laura, with a kunai over his chest.
“Laura, stop this, you don’t want to do this, we can work together”
“You… your still awake?”
“Don’t do it”
“I have to…”
Right then she lunges her arm Forward to his chest. I quickly threw my kunai and knocked her kunai out of her hands across the room. She tries to go for it, I quickly catch her and put her in an arm lock.
“There’s another way out of this…I know we can do this together, us
four, we’ll figure out a way, it’ll be all right…”
She cries and sobs…
“WHY IS THIS HAPPENING TO US!!!! WHAT DID WE DO TO DESERVE THIS, WE’RE KIDS GOD DAMNIT!” she yells in a sad, deafening voice…
Jessica comes in and I drag Josh off to our room, where I can still here her cries. Why is this happening to us? Who is doing this to us? Why is he causing us so much pain. I still have so much to live for, for her, back in Texas, the one who I’ve been crazy over lately, Although we broke up 11 months ago, on that fateful Christmas day. I miss her so much. I mean, sure after those first few months of not talking to each other, we hated each other, but now our friendship is building back up, its fragile, but…I need to stay alive, I must get through this alive. I have so much to live for…All these thoughts are floating trough my head as I fall asleep…
The next morning, after Josh finally woke up, I had to explain what happened; he was hurt at what had happened, for he likes Laura, but he understood their situation. After we ate a good breakfast, we joined parties with the girls, and set off north Upstream on the Parana River. For now we had money, and lots of it, Jessica’s nana who owned the innkeeper knows about the situation, and lent them a lot of money, plus the American money they had there traded for the currency there. On our trip through Argentina we saw Iron ore mining going on, along with Lead being mined. We even saw some petroleum towers. While going along the river on the border of Argentina in the far distance we could see part of the Andes Mountains.
Finally we got through the border of Argentina and into Bolivia. We got off the boat. And couldn’t find a bus, so we had to take a taxi, which Josh enjoyed because I sat in the front passenger seat with the driver while Josh was in the middle in the backseat, and of course. Laura was on one side of him and Jessica on the other. Eventually we arrived at one of the capitols of Bolivia, Sucre. Laura was doing much better now dealing with her emotions, I think because Josh and I Promised to never leave them and when we do get to Ciudad Juarez, before we get the deactivation key, to find a way to save them also. We talked about it a few times, what if we run into the last team, and them not be so friendly. We talked about it briefly, but just as before, if hostile, fight them. If not, hopefully join groups with them.
When we got to Sucre, we were debating to either spend the night there, for we had a long day of travel. It was about 7:00. We decided to find a bus now in the big city and go to at least La Paz, the other capitol city of Bolivia and spend then night there, the trip there would only be about 4 hours.
On the bus we had 2 seats across the row from each other. Laura and Josh sat in one, and Jessica and I sat in the other. After about only 1 hour Josh was asleep with Laura Leaning on him, also asleep. Jessica was asleep also, leaning on me. I Couldn’t sleep; I had too much on my mind, so I watched out the window. Even in the dark we were so close to the Andes mountains I could see them. I looked in the atlas one of the men had given me from Buenos Aires. Showed tomorrow we would have to cross the Madeira. A river branching off from the amazon. I would be a bit excited to see this, but I’m sure no one else would...Eventually I Started to doze off and then the last thing I remember was thinking about what if the other team is far ahead of us? What if they are already in Mexico or something. I’m sure if we ran into them we would win if we fought. Josh and I were very well trained in the Shonen2 Arts and we would have nothing to worry about then. But if they beat us there. There would be nothing that would help us
“Josh wake up”
I look up and see everyone looking over me.
“Its time to get up, we made it to La Paz.”
We get off the bus, found an inn and checked in for the night, we wanted to conserve money, so only got one room. But I made sure nothing was going to happen. I tied Josh to the couch so he wouldn’t try anything. Then we went to sleep. Josh on the couch, me on the floor, and the two girls in the bed.
The bright light wakes me up in the morning. I open my eyes. Another unfamiliar ceiling. I sigh, then get up, untie Josh, and wake everyone else up. We eat breakfast then again set off to travel. Again we go by bus north. We pass the Madeira River as I thought. And, as I thought, no one cared but me. Hours later the bus stops, the bus driver tells us we’re in Brazil. In a small city. Well, he really told Laura and Josh, in Spanish, but they translated. We asked if this bus goes farther, but he says no, he did say though there is a small airport near buy, that if we pay the right price, might get a ride to where ever we’re going. When Josh translated and told us we all lit up with glee. We might get a flight to Mexico! If this was possible, we might get there, and all this will be over, this nightmare might be over, I might be able to see her again! Her face, what a beauty! We can do this! As soon as we find a way to rescue the girls and ourselves! We quickly thank the bus driver and set off to find this airport.
We pick up a city map, we find it on the map. We take a taxi directly there, of course the same seating as the last taxi ride. We get there, we walk inside. It’s a small airport, but, plenty of planes. They weren’t commercial planes as in the U.S., but small 6 seated planes. And another thing we found out. There were no pilots. It’s a fly your self! Rent a plane a drop it off at the airport your going to. This, was not good news. For this was going to be difficult decision, keep going by car and bus? And risk the chance of the other team getting there, or take a chance of me piloting the plane. And yes I would pilot the plane. For I had flew a plane before, at camp. At summer camp I had flown a plane. I hadn’t really done all the preparations and pedal work, but I had taken off, and flew around, and landed. A little rough, but it was still more experience than anyone else. We, after a lot of discussing, decided to take the plane, I was a little scared, but I had to be brave. If I want to survive this and see her again, I must survive. We get in the plane. With me in the Pilot seat, Josh in the co-pilot seat, and the girls in the back, I started the engine, went to the runway. Got a lot of momentum and then I pulled back on the steering and off we went! I was doing it! This time with no instructor! All by my self! We can do this. We will survive!
Looking out was awesome, I could see amazon river from all the way up here! And before we got really high I saw a lot of timber being hauled away for use, it was beautiful up here, everything was! Even the thousands of vegetation fields of corn, wheat, and cotton! Everything was beautiful.
An hour and a half later we fly over Columbia, and eventually over Bogota, the capitol of it, and the Andes Mountains! We even saw the Magdalene River! Which was beautiful! After Columbia we flew over Panama, Costa Rica, and Nicaragua!
“Hey Josh” Josh says
“What?” I reply
“I need to go to the bath room…really bad”
“Oh my gosh, come on, now?”
“Yeah, hehe…”
“Fine, we’ll stop in Honduras, and I guess we’ll get some gas. We’re
almost out”
So we stopped in Tegucigalpa, the capital of Honduras at an airport. Everyone went to the bathroom, and we refueled. They said it would take forever to get to our plane for refuel, 3 hours maybe, so we went into the city for awhile. We walked out and didn’t see anything special. Just some zinc mining going on. But the air was really moist and hot. We found a nice shop to eat, so we sat. We were having a good conversation and having a pretty good time, but while everyone else was talking. I saw a guy, looked about 18 years old, holding his chest, and going into the bathroom. I excused my self and followed him. I listened in. I heard painful moaning.
“Ahhhhh, why does it hurt so bad? Why is this happening to me, why did that have to happen to him?” I hear him say.
I burge into the door as if having to go the bath room real bad. He immediately stood straight up as if nothing was happening. He was about to open the door to go out.
“Going Somewhere?” I ask
“What do you want?”
“You’re alone in this restaurant, where’s your team member?”
“You…”
He pulls out a gun, I quickly zip up my pants and turn around.
“Don’t Move”
“Whoa now, I just want to talk”
“Your on another team, you’re an enemy”
“You might look at it like that, but what if I helped you?”
“Impossible”
“Where’s your teammate?”
“HE’S DEAD!”
“How?”
“DOES IT MATTER?”
“Yeah, it does, how did he die, it couldn’t have been my team or the
other team”
“He….He….We were…just walking down the street and he
wasn’t watching where he was going…and…and he ran into stranger, who got really mad, and he punched him as hard as he could, right in the chest…and…”
“And it Exploded?”
“Yeah…but it doesn’t matter, I’m going to kill you, I must survive,
time to d—“
“Hehe, don’t think you’re the only one who’s smart”
It was Josh, he saw why I had gone in, and went in after me, just in time to knock him out before he shot.
“Thanks, I owe you one.”
“Nah, we’re even now, after what you did in Rosario, we would have
been toast”
“Well what should we do?”
“I say we leave this butt hole here and let him die when we get there”
“But…would we really do that?”
“He just almost killed you! What are you saying??? You want to see her again, don’t you? I know you do, its either us or
him. “
“Yes I do, I do want to see her again, but…”
“Then what are you blabbering about, lets get out of here before
someone comes, we need to get to Ciudad Juarez”
After that we got back on the plane as fast as we could and took off before anyone found his body. Now we had nothing to worry about, now that the third team was out of the picture. Except what we were going to do, how we were going to save all four of us. There is nothing we could do now, for we didn’t know anything about where in Ciudad Juarez this place was, I guess this was part of the challenge was to find where in the city. I look behind me, the girls are sleeping.
“Beautiful aren’t they?”
“I guess so, I’ve grown attached to them, as friends somehow”
“Haha, too bad you’re still in love with you know who, other wise you
could have Jessica. But o well, I guess I get both! Hehe.
“I don’t why she has been on my mind, lately, I haven’t even seen
here all that much, yet I’m dying without her, and I miss her.
Even if she still thinks of me as a friend now, since we broke up, and she does have a boyfriend currently right now. But I dunno man, but this whole time I’ve been motivated by her to keep pressing on, and not to give up, and not to die.”
“I’m not talking to you any more…you’re to depressing”
“Haha, sorry, I’ll try to do better. But hey Look we’re entering your
home country!”
“Half home country”
As we fly over Mexico we see amazing stuff, like the Sierra Madre Oriental, and lots of resource mining, like Zinc, Iron ore, Gold, silver, Oil, Coal and lead along with many other things. But finally, we’re almost there.
“Josh, Wake up the girls, we’re almost there”
No Awnser
“Josh?”
Of course, he’s sleeping…
“Josh your supposed to be making sure I don’t fall asleep!”
“Huh wha what?”
“Wake up!”
“ok ok ok….we there yet?”
“I just said that…now wake up the girls.”
I see an airstrip landing, I radio in to land, they ok me, so I land the plane. We get off, and we leave the plane there. We walk outside of the airport. We grab a van cab, and go to the main part of the city.
“Well, now what do I we do, we’re here, we just need to find were
this place is, we need a clue…Check the letter again.” Jessica says.
“I don’t see anything…nothing that could give us a hint.”
We start just randomly looking around for anything. After no luck, we stop at a vendor to get something to drink. I get a water, the girls get ice tea, and Josh gets a soda pop.
“Nothing like a good old ‘La Zam’d’ Soda pop”
Josh pops off the lid, it lands on the ground, engraved on it is a big LZ.
“Check the letter again” I spurt out
“Why? Its no use.”
“Look at the name of the guy who signed this letter. Look, his initials
and this top”
“ I see! We need to go to the La Zam’d Factory!” shouts Laura
“Exactly!” I reply
We ask people where the factory is, they said it got bought buy another company, so that old ware house shut down and is now abandoned. We found out where it was and we ran there as fast as we could. We arrived.
We slowly entered the door, not knowing what was waiting for us, it was dark, but we kept on pressing. Right when we all had entered. The doors behind us closed, and a bright light came on, and a recording played in the microphone of the old manager of the building.
“Congratulations on making it here, you have been through a great
task, enjoy your life, step forward to his Platform and receive 2 keys, the other teams bombs will explode when the second key has deactivated a bomb. After this has been done, step into this room.”
“Well, what should we do?” Laura asks
“Stay here, this might be booby trapped” Says Josh
“Josh and I will go take care of this”
Josh and I walk up to the platform, we through a kunai down in
front of the keys. Nothing happens. I pick up a key, it like a straight bar, about as long as your middle finger and also just about as thick, make of metal, and has a button it.
“We can test one out and see what it does, we have 2 tries before it
will explode.” I say
“Who wants to go first, I think its better if one of us to try in case
anything is dangerous" Josh Says
“I agree, Josh, you can go first I reply” I say
“Here I go…”
He presses the button, he falls directly on the ground, in pain, he’s
screaming, then it stops…
“Josh, Are you ok?”
“It hurts a little but I’m ok”
“You think it worked?”
“I don’t know”
“go into that room, with the green smoke, I’ll come with you, you girls stay here, and take this kunai”
Josh and I enter the room, the door closes,the other key is still In the other room.
“Welcome, my name is Zomozode”
We see a tall big buff man in a black robe staring at us.
“The final test, is to defeat me!”
I look at Josh; he looks at me
“Ready to show this guy who we really are, and why he shouldn’t
have messed with us?” he says
“You know it” I respond.
Zomozode throws an array of golden kunai at us. We quickly dodge it to the left. I look over at Josh, I see him pulling out harigane3, In response I pull out a kunai and an explosive tag tied on it. Josh Uses Kage Bunshin No Jetsu4 and quickly ties Zomozode up and attached him to a pillar. I grab my Explosive tag with my kunai and throw it directly in his face, Josh and I duck for cover, and everything goes black.
I open my eyes. I sigh. Another unfamiliar ceiling. Where am I this time? I sit up and look around. A Hospital? My heart hurts again, more this time, a nurse comes in.
“Oh, Your finally awake. Don’t get up to fast, you have all been through a lot for a 15 and 16 year olds.”
You all? The nurse opens the curtains to my left and right, and there reveals, Josh, Laura, and Jessica. Also awake. And in beds.
“What happened?” I ask
“Well” Josh says “when you threw the explosive tag, you didn’t get to cover fast enough, so you got knocked out. But after that Zomozode died, and the blast also reviled his laboratory, with a control for all the bombs, I deactivated yours, and everyone else’s. And remember when we couldn’t call anyone? Because of the bombs, they messed up the wave frequencies. But after the bombs were deactivated, we could call. When everyone found out we were kidnapped, everyone was worried sick about us. But anyway they took us all to the hospital to get the bombs permanently removed.”
“Wow, we did it, we survived…thank you everyone.”
Just then entering the room was my mom, some of my other friends, my dad my sister, and then last who entered the room was…her. She came to see me…I survived…and now I can see her again…

3Harigane is Japanese wire used for combat to trap people. Explosive tags are grenade like things that are paper thin.

Me with my awsome Snowboard
I hope it snows this week,
A snow flake on your cheek
Would make this Christmas so Beautiful
But that would just bring the pain
Cause things can’t stay the same
These Holidays won’t be wonderful
I look under the tree
But there’s nothing to see
Cause it’s a broken heart that you’re giving me
I can’t figure it out
Is this what Christmas is all about
Cause it’s a broken heart that you’re giving me
I don’t wanna talk
I’m sick of all this talking
A broken heart wrapped up in a Box
This tear drops in my stocking
I hate Christmas parties,
You offered me some punch,
But I just shruged
I hate Christmas parties
You and the cookie Tray
Both hear me say bahumbug...
