Bethany and Fridge both got up from where they sat, to walk over to the edge. Spencer and Tillie also stood crouched behind the rock.

Spencer spoke up, "Hey Alex."

Alex looked up.

"We're going to get you out of here, okay?"

Tillie nodded, "We Will Alex. That way you can go home."

Alex blinked, "Yeah."

Martha stood at a distance, before deciding to put her walk to use. Yes, the one that her and Bethany had practiced.

One of the guards noticed her, standing up while holding his gun. The other turned around, staring at her also.
-
Fridge held up a pair of binoculars, gazing into them. "What the hell is going on with her butt?"

Spencer piped in, "What did you tell her to do Bethany?"

"Did she twist her ankle, maybe?"

Tillie winced, watching the scene before her. Bethany grimaced, "Give her a break guys. She's never flirted with anyone before."
-
Martha walked closer to the two guards, trying to mimic the walk that her and Bethany had practiced. Her arms and hips swinging at the same time.

One of the guards spoke with an accent, "Hello little lady, what are you doing out here all by yourself?"

Martha dipped down and back up, flipping her hair back. "Hey you two." She swung her hair around, "I seem to have gotten lost out here. Can you both help me?" She blew some of her hair away from her face.

The two men looked at her. The one from before spoke once more, repeating what he had said. "Hello little lady, what are you doing out here all by yourself?"

She let out a little laugh, "You are so funny and interesting."
-

The group watched from their spot by the rock. Fridge asked out loud, "Did she get a bug in her hair?" They all watched as Martha flipped her hair back and forth.

Tillie looked at Bethany, "Why is she flipping her hair so much?"

Bethany sighed as she watched the scene unfold, "She's forgotten everything we practiced."

Spencer spoke, "Let's go guys."

One by one, the group followed Spencer down.
-

Martha looked over, causing both men to notice. Before they could both look to see what she was staring at, Martha yelled out, "Wait! I need to tell you about this new book I've been reading." She began twirling several pieces of her hair.

"It's on microbiology, one of my favorite subjects."

As she spoke, the group quickly snuck down the hill towards the gate.

Martha began nibbling on her lower lip, although it wasn't as subtle as Bethany said she should.

In the distance, Spencer was using the bolt cutters to cut through part of the fence.

The guard once again repeated the same sentence to Martha, crossing his arms as he stood. The other guard cocked his gun, causing Martha to gasp out in shock. She turned around and whispered to herself, "You are a badass."

The radio right next to her turned on, and began playing the opening lines to Baby I Love Your Way.

"Ooh baby, I love your way, everyday yeah, yeah"

She turned around and smiled as the next line began. "Ooh, baby, I love your way, everyday."

"Do you guys like to dance?"

She danced forward as the next line played. "Shadows grow so long before my eyes." She laid her hand on his shoulder, sliding it across his chest to the other.
