I see the guys by a tree beating up Jay again. I don't know what he did, but it must have really pissed them off. I walk over to them, and my stomach twists into knots. I have a terrible feeling about this, even worse than usual. I just stand there, staring at them.
"Just hit him Mike! It's not that hard," says Dean.
"Listen guys, I really don't want to. I-"
"Man up, Mike!" Shouts Dean.
"Please don't hurt me Mike. Please," Jay begs.
I punch Jay, and he falls back, hitting his head on a root. He doesn't move. I check for a pulse, and am so lucky that he has one.
"He's alive," I breathe.
"We should get out of here," says Dean. I want to stay, but he grabs my arm and we run.
