The Intruders
Six Bronx teens were looking for excitement when they decided to explore a neighborhood cave. After tumbling off a ledge they fell into an adventure of a lifetime; they had time-traveled three centuries into the future! Here, the Bronx is a heavily wooded forest, unexplored by a tribe of people living there. The teens are soon accepted. However, within weeks they find themselves in the middle of a full-fledged war.
Another tribe living in Manhattan is bent on wiping out the tribe in the Bronx!
These teenagers have a unique advantage in this war. They know the land. Neither tribe is aware that there were, and still are, train tunnels running under the river from the Bronx to Manhattan. Neither knows that the old train tracks run North to South so are excellent travel guides. The tribe in the Bronx is even unaware of the wealth of treasure—metals, jewelry, etc. - buried in the rubble of what were once busy shopping strips in the Bronx. For the six teens, this becomes a true adventure. Yet, all too soon their adventure becomes too real. Friends and enemies are getting killed!
This was no longer fun. This was war!

Synopsis
"We can't live here," Angela wailed.
Hamid looked around. "We could try the cave one more time. We're... What's that?"
From the woods came the sounds of yapping and snarling. A dogfight? Here?
"Where's Club?" Hamid looked around frantically. "Club!" he called before rushing off in the direction of the snarling.
It was a small, rocky clearing only a few feet away and Club was in the middle of a vicious fight with a coyote. They watched helplessly as the coyote tried to bite out a chunk of Club's neck. His collar saved him. The coyote's teeth slipped off harmlessly, and the two animals lunged at each other again.
Derrick grabbed a stout stick and ran forward. He began hammering away at the coyote's head. With vicious fury the coyote turned to confront this new attacker. Derrick backed up in surprise but the animal took aim at Derrick's neck— actually knocking him over— before Club attacked again, this time from behind. Club's teeth sank into the coyote's neck. The two animals were now locked together and Club had the upper hand!
The incident had happened so fast, the others were still standing in shock. But when Derrick went after the coyote again—stick in hand—Hamid screamed at him.
"Derrick! Leave them! Are you crazy?"Read More...
