Alana managed to untie Jerry. Marc had his arms in bandages and gave him water. They had to get him to the hospital. They needed to get the police involved. The screams they heard were getting louder, as they started carrying him from the throne.
Jay burst out of the darkened woods. He was stoned and drunk. Marc recognized him. He was one of the real crazies in camp. He eventually got kicked out. He wasn’t in Marc’s unit. The guy was rotten to the core.
Jay started screaming and told them to hand over Jerry. Alana started shooting apples and figs. Marc while holding Jerry launched pomegranates. Alana and Marc started firing off honey and wine.
Jay stood there.
All of a sudden out if his eyes came shards of glass. They Marc jumped away. Alana blocked them with apples. Jay was screaming, “Jerry, Jerry, Jerry.”
Marc tossed Jerry over to Alana. He went for Jay. He kicked him in the head. In response, Jay shot glass at Marc. It slashed his left arm. Marc took a step back. Alana fired a bevy of apples. One nailed Jerry in the eye. Marc shot honey up Jay’s nose.
Jay started to cough.
Alana shot wine out of her eyes like a firehose. Jay stumbled. Marc launched barley at his eyes and ears. He followed up with honey. He was doing all of this while holding Jerry.
Marc knew the trails better than anyone. He told Alana to follow him. They went the long way toward where the old dining hall used to be. They ran at full speed.
They made it to Alana’s car. Jay was racing at full speed behind them. She unlocked the doors. Marc got in with Jerry. Alana started driving while cranking the B52s. The dirt roads had many rocks and holes.
Jay was trailing and shooting glass at the tires.
While Alana was driving out of camp they weren’t sure how’d they explain their war with Jay to the Narrowsburg Police. Alana knows Anat saw her take out Diane. She knows Anat was there when the NYPD arrived. Simultaneously they asked each other should they contact Anat?
Alana drove toward the hospital. Jay fainted at the edge of the camp’s gateway.
