The next morning I went to catch breakfast. I grabbed my bow and some arrows and headed to a clearing in the dark evergreen forest. I heard a branch snap a few paces ahead of me. A deer walked into the clearing. I decided to leave it alone since the deer always head towards water. Water equals fish. I followed the deer and I was right it lead straight to a raging river. I saw some silver sparkling and I shot my bow a it. A nice sized fish. I headed back to the bunker and it was a mess. Debris everywhere and everyone was outside looking like they saw a ghost.

"Wheres Benjamin?" I asked.

"He took him" a girl piped

"Who?" I asked

"An old man covered in scars"

I followed some footprints and it leaded to a crashed plane. In it I could hear faint screams for "Help". I looked in it and I saw Benjamin. He was covered in blood and a look of tiredness on his face. I couldn't help but feel an instinct to save him. I ran inside and cut him loose. I put his arm over my shoulder and walked him out of the plane. I got back to the destroyed bunker and had everyone take care of him. My work isn't done for they hurt my friend and for that they would pay.
