Emma leapt across the gap, her foot almost sliding off the concrete. Once she gained solid footing, she turned to Evan, Tyler, Brock and John. "Come on guys," she said. "It's solid." Tyler stepped forward first. He backed up, then ran at the gorge full speed. He cleared it easily and landed beside Emma. Evan joined them next, then John. They all looked back at Brock, who was looking at the gorge curled up in fear.
"Come on Brock," Evan called. "It's not that hard!" Brock looked at them.
"Don't cock block me, okay," Brock said, "because if I hit the bottom of that, I don't respawn!"
"We're not retarded Brock," Tyler said. "This isn't COD. Now come on!" Taking a deep breath, Brock leapt at the gorge. He screamed as he came up short and began falling. Emma and John rushed forward and each grabbed one of Brock's hands. They pulled him up, their feet sliding towards the edge. They walked over to the others and continued on. They stepped carefully in case they set off any other traps.
Emma's heart dropped as the ground suddenly shifted and fell away. The ground quaked and broke, and Emma slid down with it.
"Emma!," her friends screamed. Thinking quickly, Emma yanked out her switchblade and dug it into the ground. The blade scraped against the ground for a few seconds, then mounted itself into the dirt and rock. Panting, Emma dangled for a few seconds. She looked down and saw that the ground below was covered in spikes. No thanks, she thought. She pulled the blade out of the ground and began climbing up, using the knife to climb up while her feet and other hand frantically scrambled at the earth. Just as she began to get tired, Evan reached down and pulled her up.
"You okay?" Evan asked. Emma nodded, gasping for breath.
"Yeah," she said. "Let's go." They continued forward, drawing their weapons. Brock had his fingers on an arrow and gripped his bow tightly. Emma and Tyler kept their knifes at the ready. John smacked his baseball bat against his palm and Evan loaded his pistol. They all shared a sense of dread and fear. They knew they'd be facing the enemy soon. They just hoped they were ready for it.
