Down the hill the Humvee is rolling down in circles in the middle of the rocks and boulders. Inside the Humvee we are all screaming as we are crashing all over the inside of the Humvee. Flying broken jagged glass are causing cuts along our exposed skin. Any pressure applied onto the different cut cause even more pain as we are banging and crashing against the four sides of the Humvee. The men in black in the driver's seat and passenger's seat also seem to be in as much pain before their necks are snapped in half due to the whip lash and the violent movement of the moving Humvee.

It is all over in minutes for what felt like it had been hours as we fell down the side of the cliff face. As we came to a rolling stop the Humvee is sat upside down. On top of the bottom of the Humvee is a massive boulder which has dented the metal of the Humvee caving it inwards. Squished up against the seating and also each other we moaned and groaned out our injuries and also at how we are pushed up against each other in different angles. Millicent's left foot is jammed hard into my right side as my face is smashed hard up against the side of the Humvee.

I couldn't see how the others were tangled up together but that is the last of my worries. As my right arm is jammed underneath my own body going numb and I cannot seem to move a muscle. From behind me one of the others must have moved from Millicent to get her foot out of my side. It has allowed me to relax all of my muscles that are screaming at me to stop moving. Several pairs of hands pulled me up into a sitting position where my vision is more blurred than I expected it to be. However, I can still see clear shaped in front of me the girls around me.

Finding my voice to speak up, I said, "Is everybody alright? Is anybody severely hurt that they cannot pull themselves up up climb out of the Humvee?"

"I think we are alright here just some Minor injuries that are easily patched up. Are you okay Vivian? You seemed to have worsened blunt force of the fall." Veronica said.

"Okay I guess my muscles are painfully sore and my vision is a little bit blurry. Is there away to get out?"

"The drivers side door is busted wide open but there are rocks of different sizes mostly in the way. We need to try our best to climb over the rocks to see what exactly around us." Emersyn said piping up.

"It may take a few tries to get everybody climbing over the rocks in the state that we are all in. But I think that we could do it in record time don't you think?" I said.

"Before we do that we need to get those dead bodies out of the way of the driver's seat and the passenger's seat." Millicent said.

"Yeah that is definitely what we need to do first. Good idea Millicent I was just planning on climbing over then to get out." Emersyn said.

"Well that's not happening Emersyn so chop chop you and Vivian get moving the dead bodies out of the way."

"And where do you expect the two of us to do with the dead bodies then smart ass."

"I didn't know that it was you idea to climb through the front seats and get out through there."

"Okay then Millicent have you got a better idea then that you can tell us? Because I don't see any other way to get out of this Humvee. I am sure Veronica and Vivian will agree with me that we have no supplies here and we could potentially either die in this Humvee or get captured by Malcom again and be tied up. You decide what our next steps are going to be. Death or once again more death?"

After her small rant towards Millicent, Emersyn sat down of the broken glass and other debris lying around. Crossing her arms over her chest in the process Emersyn like Veronica and I watched Millicent open and close her mouth a bit like a cod fish out of water. Being in this silent state for a few minutes longer Millicent took it upon herself to have any other way to get out in one piece. Even through I wanted to wait a little bit longer to see if Millicent could come up with anything. Emersyn simply just huffed and proceeded to get Veronica to help her get the dead bodies out of the way. I funnily enough did get a stink eye from Emersyn when I didn't bother to move out of my seat to help her and Veronica to move the dead bodies.
