"It's fine"Al said looking over at her,he then stood and looked at a road sign."That way to the city,and this way to the county side,maybe we could hide it the woods..."he mumbled while looking back and forth."Come on,we should start moving...We only have a few hours till sunrise."He said and genstured for Ellie to follow him before he started to jog again.

"Great more running" she groaned and rose to her feet, "Why are we doing this again?" she picked up her pace and jogged just behind him.

"Well for one,do you really wanna be stuck eating that shit back at the orphanage,two you and me both know the headmaster was about to kick us out anyways,and three why the hell not?"Al said with a heavy sigh as he looked at the road ahead,not bothering to look at Ellie.

"I was joking, life was hell but thanks for the list" she commented and kept following him, "Im going to shut up now since I know you won't talk to me" she watched his back and didn't speak.

Al glanced over his shoulder at her before giving her a small smile"Don't worry,we will never get caught,the plan is flawless so we should be fine!"he said rather cheerfuly before he slowed his pace to jog right beside her.

"Funny" she fought a smile and stopped for a second her hair clouding her face. "Hold on my hair is getting my face" she looked around and jogged over to a near-by tear and jumped up grabbing a peice of moss and braided her hair quickly and tied it, "Ok lets keep going" she walked forward.

Al watched her then followed behind her"Look there's a forest right there we could stop in for the rest of the night"Al said and pointed before grabbing her hand and pulling towards the forest.

She almost stopped when he touched her and brushed it off and ran after him "You better make sure I don't get eaten" she joked.

"I will,trust me you're my only friend!"he said before stopping when they reached the forest."I will make a shelter for us,you gather wood for a fire!"he said quickly before darting around gather thick branches and putting the together using vines to tie them together and spruce branches as a way to block out any light.

"Alright then leader" she smirked and walked deeper into the forest she gathered wood then stopped hearing the insects getting ready for bed, she put down the wood and sat down breathing it in. Not returning.
