It is nighttime, and Adira is sleeping peacefully, Until she is woken up by an unknown figure. As her eyes became more focused, she saw Max. Her body got tense and didn't know what to say.

"Max, what are you doing?" Adira asked, half asleep.

"Adira! Get your ass up! I have our ticket out of this hellhole!"

Adira just groaned, and just covered her blanket "You guys can get out by the end of the summer."

Max just yanked the blanket out of her. "Come on, Adira, this is different. I found someone on my way out."

"Ugh, fine, but this is the last time I'm doing this." Adira got up, and rubbed her eyes.

And now, they're all in the dock, except Marie and Nikki. Adira thought they were both sleeping, until they heard a scream.

"LÂCHEZ-MOI!!" (GET OFF ME!!)

Adira and the others turned around, it was Marie and Nikki dragging her foot like a dog.

"QU'EST-CE QUI NE VA PAS AVEC VOUS, PUTAIN D'ANIMAL!"(WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU, FUCKING ANIMAL!)

After she calmed down. Max spoke.

"Alright, guys, our first attempt to bust out of this god-forsaken hellhole didn't work. But tonight's gonna be different. Because we have a secret weapon... Billy Nikssilp."

Then, a boy wearing the usual Wood Scout attire with an eye patch. He's shown to be eating a candy cane that has a sharp end. He also wears bandaging tape around his wrists.

"Call me "Snake." The boy said.

"He's ex-wood scouts. And he's one of the best. Isn't that right, Billy?" Max asked.

"Got my search-and rescue badge in two weeks... Got my wilderness survival in one." Snake said, as he bit his candy cane.

"That's amazing!" Nikki said.

Adira, Marie, or Wyatt had the suspicious look on their faces. they knew they didn't trust him.

"I never had a choice." Snake said, as he once again ate the candy cane.

"The Woodscouts are some of the most intense, militant campers on Lake Lilac. Billy here escaped." Max boosted.

"And why is he helping us?" Neil asked.

"I'm not doing this for you, I made a vow." Snake replied.

"Well, I'm going back to bed." Adira walked out.

Marie followed her. "Moi aussi." (Me too.)

"I will pass on the little getaway." Wyatt said, following them.

"Oh, come on guys, this is our ticket out of this shit hole!" Max yelled at them.

Adira turned around. "Do you think we are THAT stupid to believe him and your pathetic plan? Well, it doesn't work. now if you excuse us, we are going back to bed." And with that, they back to their cabins.
