Chapter 5: The Obstacle Race
The first challenge: a massive obstacle course. Mud pits, rope swings, walls, and balance beams tested their skills.
Kyle pretended to slip, making everyone laugh while helping teammates. Tara encouraged each member, Zane coordinated moves, Lila cheered, and Aaron guided with calm precision.
They finished second, muddy and exhausted. The victory wasn't points—it was the joy of being together again.
