Phillipian Satire: Andover Athlete [KIDNAPPED] at Exeter

It’s 2:48 a.m., and Eddie works on his Spanish Essay due the following morning. His blinds are raised. He needs all the light he can get, and the moon barely illuminates his paper. His sleep schedule is one of the best on the Exeter campus, getting at least 2 hours each night.

Little does he know, the greatest rescue mission in history is happening right before his eyes. In the darkness of the night, Agent A places padlocks on each building. Each building except for the Library.

Eddie was kidnapped by Exeter students and has been forced to live in captivity. It is believed the motive of this capture was to make sure their team could win the Varsity A Tennis game on Friday, but they lost anyway.

Now, a team of five agents (EBI Seniors) is trying to rescue him. Now that they have locked down every building, they enter the library, easily findable because Exeter students never shut up about it, and start climbing the floors. 

Upon reaching the ninth floor, they start searching. Nothing to be found. The only thing they find is a ladder leading to a secret level of the building, completely locked to the public. He has to be in there.

They get to the tenth floor and find a chicken sandwich. As protein-starved Andover students, they eat the sandwich for its approximately 6 grams of protein.

However, they fall into a horrible trap. While eating their chicken sandwiches, they get ambushed by the dastardly Exeter Tennis team, who had set this trap hours ago.

Unfortunately for them, they lost yet again, and the agents made it to the final stage, where they found our kidnapped athlete. Unceremoniously, they throw him off the building. The rope is a little too long, and Eddie goes flying into the ground. It is the lone bright spot of his past couple of days.
