Sorry for short-ness and lack of quality. I'm trying to squeeze something in while my cousin is here, so it had to be very quick. xD
Esther Black
Esther had spent the first few hours of the morning inside of her wagon, away from the chaos and the panic. She was busying herself with that book of hers, using her second pen on the trip to write with. She was nervous - afraid, even. So much had gone wrong already, and now Jake was dead.
Not that Esther had known much about Jake, mind you. No... Esther had avoided him as much as she could. Either way, he was dead now, and after the disappearances, people were getting worked up. "They have reason to be getting worked up," she whispered to herself, setting her pen and notebook aside. She hadn't written much, considering how long she'd been hidden away in the wagon, but her mind was unfocused.
She rose slowly from the wagon floor and brushed off her dress, trying to smooth out multiple wrinkles. Chaz was still outside, and it was making her even more nervous. The last thing she wanted to do was step out in the midst of all of the chaos, but she couldn't stay locked away all day.
She climbed out of the wagon carefully and took a deep breath. It didn't take long to spot Chaz - he standing a few yards away with another group of men, and judging by the tones of their voices, they were discussing things that were of importance. The thought unnerved Esther. What if something else had gone wrong already?
She sighed and made her way over to the group - a bit timidly - and tapped her brother's shoulder with her forefinger. "Any news?" she asked quietly, glancing at the others out of the corner of her eye.
