Damn!
John Muir Middle School 10
A missile has just hit JASON’S
hideout. While JASON and SEBASTIAN
were having a showdown, the missile
hit. Before the whole front exit could
collapse, JASON and SEBASTIAN ran for
it. But as soon as they reached the
exit, the walls collapsed on both of
them. The lights turn up on JASON and
SEBASTIAN getting up in the rubble
wiping themselves off and coughing.
The front room where the exit was has
been destroyed completely and the
walls are smashed together on the
ground.
JASON
SEBASTIAN
I told you your brother was mean!
Did you boo boo your lung?
JASON
What. Did you just say? Boo boo…?
He coughs into his hand, which brings
up blood.
He looks at the blood on JASON’S hand
skeptically
Motions to JASON’S hand
He makes a face at SEBASTIAN
I hope not, if boo boo means “rupture”. But, you never said anything
about William that wasn’t already true, and that I didn’t already
know. Look, I know you agreed to this job for the money, but you
should know the trouble you’re getting yourself into. William knew you
were in here with me. Why would he launch that missile if you are his
most valuable asset in him “winning” this race? But right now that
isn’t important. We need to figure out how to get out of here. I know
where to go. Follow me or don’t. You don’t really have very many
options.
