Hey Chris.
CHRIS:

Just a sec. Remember we used to play
hide n seek up here?

That was my favourite sound.

Get up!

JAY:
Look... Chris... just...

You wanna know what my new favourite
sound's gonna be? The sound of you screaming
like a little b*tch.

grabs the pole and they both fall. Chris has hurt his leg. Chris
stumbles off into the woods. Jay grabs an axe and goes after
him, he swings the axe but misses and they both fall down a large
earthy embankment. At the bottom they come to their senses and
begin fighting again, Jay with his axe and Chris with a log he's
ripped off a tree. Chris knocks Jay out by hitting him hard in
the legs.
