Kennedy was sitting on Christopher's lap, bouncing up and down. Christopher was sitting in his wheelchair, so that was really the only way they could have sex. "Oh yeah! Harder, daddy, harder!" Kennedy squealed. Right when she was about to have an orgasm, Christopher saw something outside the window. "Woah! What's going on out there?" He wondered aloud. "I don't know. Can we please just finish?" Kenned said through gritted teeth. Christopher pushed her off of him and wheeled himself over to the window. Halle, Ryan, and Kiefer were carrying someone to the hospital tent on a stretcher.

"Get him on the table! Quickly!" Halle instructed. Ryan and Kiefer put him on the operating table. Halle grabbed some bandages and stitches from her medical kit. "It looks like the knife hit his liver. That's bad." She said. She cleaned out the wound as quickly as she could. She then cauterized it with a heated knife. "We should get out of her hair." Ryan suggested. They both left the tent to see Tyson and the new group of girls waiting eagerly outside. "What's going on?" Tyson asked. "Ella fucking stabbed the shit out of Nick." Kiefer told him. "What the fuck..." Tyson said, baffled. "Maybe we should just head back inside." Josephine said to the other girls. "Oh, stop being such a pansy. We don't have movies or anything anymore, this is the best entertainment we got." Said Hope. "No, I agree with Josie. This is none of our business." Sasha said. "We better go find Ella." Ryan suggested. "Yeah, good idea." Kiefer agreed. Tyson, Kiefer, and Ryan all walked into Ella's house to find her laying on the kitchen floor, sobbing like a baby. "What the fuck is wrong with you?" Tyson scolded her. There was broken glass and blood smeared across the kitchen tiles. "Why the fuck would you stab your boyfriend?" Kiefer asked in shock. Tyson turned and saw Hope peeking through the window. "Get the fuck out of here!" Tyson yelled. She dropped down and ran away. "Ella, why did you do this?" Ryan asked calmly. "I- I don't know." She choked out. "Well, I don't know what we're supposed to do with you now." Said Ryan. "Just fucking kill me." She cried. "Okay." Said Tyson, pulling out his pistol. "Wait!" Ryan shouted, grabbing Tyson's hand "That's not how we do things. We either lock her up or exile her." Tyson and Kiefer glanced at each other, considering what they should do.

Nick slowly opened his eyes. He was staring up at the roof of the hospital tent. "Oh! You're awake!" Halle said happily. She ran over to him. He sat up slowly. His face was covered with sweat. He also had a bandage around his forehead from where Ella had hit with the bottle. "How are you feeling?" Halle asked. He took a moment to respond. "I... I think I'm okay." He said. "That's good. You're really taking this like a champ." Halle said encouragingly. "Where is Ella?" He asked. Halle hesitated for a second. "You probably shouldn't see her right now." She told him. He nodded slightly. "Anyway, you should get some rest. I'll come back to check on you in a little bit." Said Halle.

Naona was walking down the streets of Cuckluck Acres. She spotted Jasmine and Emily sitting on a bench together. "Hey guys." She greeted them. "Hi!" They said in unison. They both had big grins on their faces. They were so happy to see each other again. "I hope you're not still mad at me for keeping you locked up in the basement, Jasmine." Naona said. "It's all in the past now. I'm just happy to be with my bestie again!" She said. "Well, that's great. So, do you two wanna come on a hunting trip with me?" Naona asked them. "I would, but Emily is vegan." Jasmine told her. "Hey, just because I don't like eating animals doesn't mean I don't like killing them." Emily argued. "Wait, what?" Jasmine asked, confused. "I love murdering helpless animals! C'mon, I'll get the gun!" Emily said excitedly.

The three girls walked through the forest near Cuckluck Acres. Naona had her bow and Emily and Jasmine brought hunting rifles. They were also rolling a wheelbarrow behind them so they could easily bring the animal back with them. "So, how come we're hunting? Don't we have enough food at home?" Asked Jasmine. "We do, but I want to make a stew. We can boil some water and use meat we find out here and vegetables from the garden." Naona explained. "Oh, cool. I wonder-" Emily was about to say something but she stopped herself when she saw a deer standing only ten feet away from them. Naona aimed her bow at it's head. "Wait!" Emily whispered "Can I have the honours?" Naona nodded. Emily pointed her rifle at the deer's head. She pulled the trigger. The bullet went straight through the deer's skull and it fell to the ground. "Sweet!" Emily exclaimed. "Nice shot!" Jasmine complimented her. They ran over to it and put the carcass in the wheelbarrow. "Well, that was easy. We should head back home before it gets dark." Naona told them. They turned to leave, but Naona noticed something in the trees. There was a crow sitting on a branch. It was just staring down at her. It had glassy gray eyes. Naona froze. "What?" Jasmine asked. Naona didn't respond. She couldn't describe it, but she had a terrible feeling. "What's wrong?" Emily asked her. "Maybe she has cramps." Jasmine assumed. Suddenly, about fifty more crows landed in the branches of the trees that surrounded the girls. "Run." Naona whispered. "What?" Asked Emily. "Run!" Naona shouted. Jasmine grabbed the wheelbarrow and they all started sprinting away. The crows all flew down from the branches and chased after them. The massive flock got closer and closer to the girls. "What the fuck are those things?" Jasmine asked frantically. "Kiefer told me about this! The virus affects animals too!" Naona responded. Jasmine let go of the wheelbarrow and the three of them jumped behind a fallen tree trunk. "What do we do?" Emily asked, terrified. "I have an idea!" Said Jasmine. She reached into her pockets and pulled out a can of hairspray and a lighter. "What the hell are you doing?" Naona asked, worried. Jasmine peeked up from the log, turned on the lighter, and sprayed the hairspray into it. It created a blowtorch that engulfed the crows in flame. Their feathers fell off of their bodies and their flesh melted away. They all fell to the ground, dead. "Holy shit! Did you see that?" Jasmine said excitedly. "Yeah. I sure did." Said Naona. They all got up, grabbed the wheelbarrow, and brought the deer back to Cuckluck Acres.
