"Fair enough." I took a moment to adjust my bag and bow before realizing that Samuel didn't want me behind him. Can't begrudge him that. I've had my share of treacheries as well. For now, I nodded in acknowledgment and stepped forwards to take the lead, heading down the road for a ways before turning the corner the girl had disappeared around. The wind began to pick up once more as we left the cover of the buildings and I pulled a worn ski mask from my back pocket. Pulling it on, I took my bow from my back and nocked an arrow. Better safe than sorry.
We walked for some time until the buildings we passed grew smaller and smaller till there weren't any more. "I think we've reached the edge of the town." I look down the straight road that stretches into the distance. "Geez, I can't see anyone for miles. She can't be that fast, right? We weren't that far behind her, unless she's just been running at a dead sprint all the way, but...." I turn to Samuel. "You think she went another way? Maybe doubled back from that corner to throw one or both of us off? She seemed pretty freaked out when I showed up, so maybe she just wanted to disappear again..."
