Staying Alive
Back outside the Compound, Yaz, Ben, Patrick and Sammy all watched in horror as Nasal and Big Eatie were still brawling. Nasal roared and charged forward, once again knocking the limping Rex to the ground.
"How could we let this happen?" Yaz asked as Big Eatie stood up. She tried to run away only for the drones to push her back.
"Why isn't Darius stoping this?" Sammy asked as Brooklyn and Kenji joined them.
"There were a bunch of BRADs... we lost sight of Kash." Kenji explained.
"So, he could be in there with Darius?" Sammy asked in horror as Big Eatie slammed her head into Nasal, knocking him back.
"Nasal and Big Eatie are gonna kill each other. What do we do?" Brooklyn asked causing the group to look at Patrick, who just widened his eyes in shock.
The boy sighed and looked up at the drones before pulling out his screwdriver.
"Alright, lets take down these drones the old fashion way." Patrick said standing up. "Hopefully that'll give them both enough time to escape."
The group nodded. Yaz followed Patrick who snuck behind a drone, aiming his screwdriver. He threw it, nailing the drone. It deactivated and fell to the ground causing Yaz to pump her fist.
"Nice, Cornball." Yaz said when suddenly, Big Eatie slammed her head against Nasal knocking him to the ground, his neck completely exposed.
"No!" Yaz yelled. "C'mon, get up!"
Big Eatie snarled before going to bite down, only for the drones to fly in front of her, pushing her back. She roared when suddenly, two BRADs appeared and let out some green gas, causing the Rex to fall to the ground unconscious.
"Why'd he stop it?" Patrick asked as the others joined the couple. The front doors opened, revealing Kash. He walked towards the Rex, Darius following close. Kash chuckled and put a foot on top of the Rexes head.
"What are they talking about?" Brooklyn asked as the ground below Kash, the Rex and Darius began moving underground.
"Let's go talk to Mae." Patrick said.

"No!" Mae yelled as the group gathered around her. "I'm sorry. It's just, Big Eatie been through enough, and Nasal's a fighter but he's an friendly old sod. And now Darius is trapped with that monster?!"
"I get it." Ben said. "But they're tough, okay? They'll get through this."
"Theres an underground Mad Bay. I didn't have access before." Mae said taking out her tablet.
"We need a way in." Patrick said.
"Any of the feeding platforms should get you to the lower levels." Mae explained. The others teens all looked at Patrick who's eyes went wide.
"We go get Darius." Patrick said standing up. "No matter what."
Timeskip
The group ran through the jungle biome towards the desert, Yaz slowing down so she could run alongside Patrick.
"Hey, why's everyone waiting on me to call the shots?" Patrick asked.
"No one else knows nature as well as you." Yaz said with a smile.
"But... what if a make a bad call?" Patrick asked.
