The DEADLINE was UP around 55 minutes back!
The gates to the Zone were thrown open and the hunters marched back in triumphantly.
They were followed in by one ENTIRE hunted team who had escaped this Zone outing WITHOUT A SINGLE SCRATCH ON ANY OF THEM!
A long pause later, the other hunted team trooped in slowly, one by one. Two of them were carrying a makeshift stretcher of vines, leaves and branches between them, on which ONE team member lay quietly, breathing heavily and apparently unconscious. Two other members limped in behind them, some HP patches very apparent on their bodies.
Let's rewind the clock to earlier in the outing...to the very beginning...
