The Son of Rockwell

Chapter 14:Rumble in the Jungle

“Admit it, we’re lost!”

They had been walking for at least two weeks with no idea where they were and Bruce was starting to get upset. “For the last time,” Vyker said “we are not lost!” “Oh sure!” Bruce called back. “Guys just calm down.” Amanda said, “I’m sure we’re fine.” Bruce muttered under his breath. Vyker looked up at some mountains over in the distance.
