"today is about team building learning how to work together in the lovely country side"mike said once everyone was into two groups team A with mike liam,effy,sapphire,lily,johnny and gus team B with gina elektra,tracy,harry,tee,carmen,frank and toby

"no mobile phones today just you and nature now give em all up"mike said taking everyone's phone "right teams i want you to take your time i don't want anyone getting hurt and especially what's important is to work together"gina said whilst everyone cheered. once mike blew the whistle effy and elektra were first on the course as it was teamwork effy waited for johnny whilst elektra went along leaving her teammates behind but all her team mates got there first atleast that's what they thought "we won"elektra said with an L on her head "i don't think so"effy said pointing to tracy and harry still on the course.

gina had twisted her ankle so she had to stay at the campsite so tracy was the new leader of team B "right time for the main event of the day it's the big five K challenge"mike said "wait a minute is that K as in"johnny asked "yes K as in kilometres,each team has there own routes and has to answer questions about the country side"mike added "look at you can't you handle it"elektra asked turning to effy "we're gonna beat you back in that's for sure"effy said with a smirk

once the groups had split group A had already found one of the questions "name three breads of cattle"gus read out "go on liam"mike said "cow"liam replied "baby cow"liam added "calf"gus corrected him "male cow"liam said "bull"gus corrected him again "oi no need to be rude"liam said pointing at him which made everyone laugh.

"what's beaker like at home then"effy asked brushing past leaves "like a big kid half the time,cam's out i'm not living in this rubbish tip"lily replied walking beside her "you don't get bored there on your own"effy asked "yeah it's why i come with tracy sometimes why i came on this"lily said before running i front to catch up with mike.

effy was running her fingers through the leaves whilst she walked when someone jumped on her back "can you imagine living out here"liam asked whilst he jumped off her back "no way"effy replied "no shops"liam said waving a stick in front of him "no mates"johnny added "you'd have to walk like ten miles for a bag of crisps"liam said "no pavement"effy added looking at the two of them "how can people live like this"johnny said look back "i'll wear your bag if i can go on your back"effy asked dragging her feet "deal"liam replied taking off his bag before effy jumped on his back "talking to the trees,eating grass,milking cows"johnny added wondering in his own world whilst effy and liam looked at him whilst holding in their laughs.

the three were going down the trail whilst johnny was still naming things until they heard something which made them stop "did you hear that"effy asked looking around "what was it"johnny asked "i don't know a fox?"liam replied looking in the bushes after effy got down "a lion?"johnny added "you don't get those around here do ya"liam replied "i don't know let's run"johnny quickly said "no that's how things attack"effy said grabbing his arm "you just gotta face it straight on"liam added "it's probably just a branch falling out of a tree or something"effy said whilst the boys circled "it's coming from there"liam said holding effy's arm whilst looking in the distance "do we still have to front it out"johnny asked "see you don't get this aggravation in the city"liam replied looking at the two of them "show down time"liam said before they boys ran to the bushes only to see a cute dog "aw"effy said kneeling down "hey boy"liam said softly "he's not well is he"liam asked "there's a collar his names buster with a phone number"johnny added

they took the dog and started to walk down the road when they found a telephone box,liam then went to try the phone whilst johnny and effy pet the dog. "it's making a funny noise"liam said scrunching his eyebrows "yeah you have to put money in it"effy replied "what like pay as you go"liam asked confused whilst effy shrugged after a while once liam called the owners they came to pick buster up "bye buster"liam said whilst the truck left "liam,effy,johnny"mike said walking over "look we were just um-"liam said before mike cut him off "don't talk walk"mike said pointing his finger

once mike got the three back to the group they started to walk again until gus found the third mark "why don't we give another member of the team a chance to read it out"mike said passing it to effy "name three kids of dung"effy said whilst they all laughed "name three types of chicken"mike said giving it back "roasted"effy said "fried"liam added "nuggets"johnny added tilting his head whilst mike groaned.

team A then got back to the camp where gina was when lily spotted the others "look"lily said pointing to team B "hey losers"johnny said "you thought you were gonna beat us back huh"liam added with a laugh once everybody got cleaned up gina started taking the food whilst carmen told the story how she nearly fell off a bridge.
