Sara woke to Garrets yelp and quickly untangled herself from Seth’s body. She rolled over just in time to see Garret collapse to the ground thrashing violently. She looked quickly around to see if anyone had come across their camp and was attempting to ambush them in their sleep. Spotting nothing she quickly awoke Seth, who immediately sprang to his feet to see to his brother. Seth was nearly overcome with pain that exploded in his muscles, nearly driving him back to the ground. Sara too had begun to rise, but feeling her muscles begin to cramp settled herself back on the ground. As Seth paused to regain himself Garrets thrashing had brought him precariously close to the still sleeping Ashton. Ashton’s peaceful sleep was torn away from him from a spastic kick from one of Garret’s still flailing legs. He opened his eyes in time to dodge a second kick, this time aimed for his groin, and rolled swiftly out of range of Garrets assault. Bringing himself to his knees, Ashton’s face crumpled into a grimace of pain and realization.
