Dusk slowly covers the flat land and a few dead rabbits rotate above a small fire. The wind swirls dust around, irritating Clovis eyes and he blinks a few times in aggravation. He had a team of three for now. The city was only a few miles away, and the only people he needed to get there alive was him, Molly and Fiona.

Molly anxiously paces back and forth a few feet away, her arms crossed and her tongue sticking partially out in thought.
"They haven't said anything in weeks! Are we sure they're still there?"
Clovis sighs and shakes his head, not bothering to answer. Of course the people could've evacuated the city a long time ago. But they were counting on them being there.

@gracehustle

Fiona smiled tightly and shook her head "We can't be sure of anything anymore Molly.." she poked one of the rabbits to see if it was done and sighed, not yet.

@chickenfrogman group

Molly growls quietly and grumpily in frustration and sits down by Fiona.
"I think we could make it tonight."

Clovis stands and looks out to the west. Just a few hours walking that way and they'd make it.
Her turns back to the girls.
"It'd be really dangerous."

@chickenfrogman group

Molly starts to fidget with her fingers and looks up at the dark sky. With the darkness came danger. The birds. The snakes. Almost all of the animals were half starved and would eat anything. Especially when night fell.
Clovis set's up another fire, makes a small torch and stands by a nearby tree watching for danger.

@gracehustle

Fiona shivered and wrapped her arms around herself. She sighed and watched the fire, wanting to go to sleep but not wanting to at the same time.

@chickenfrogman group

Clovis looks over his shoulder.
"You guys feel free to sleep after you eat. I'll take night watch."
Molly glares instead of thanking him and turns her attention the the rabbit that looks a little overdone.

@gracehustle

Fiona quickly nodded to Clovis "Thanks, If you want though, you can wake me up at midnight and i can watch the rest of the night." she grabbed a piece of rabbit and started eating with her hands, trying to make as little mess as possible.

@chickenfrogman group

Clovis smiles and turns back around.

Molly stares at Fiona with a look of disgust even though she's not making a mess. She takes her own piece of rabbit and eats it awkwardly, trying not to make a mess either.

@gracehustle

Fiona wiped her mouth on her sleeve because she didn't have anything else to use and grabbed a piece of rabbit for Clovis. She stood up and walked over to him, awkwardly holding out the piece of rabbit for him.

@chickenfrogman group

He takes it from her hand and nods his thanks.
"Thanks, Fiona." He turns back around and starts to eat.

Molly wipes her face with her jacket sleeve. She then lays the jacket on the ground to lay on and stares up at the night sky. The stars are hidden behind dark, greenish grey clouds. Another storm was sure to hit or pass nearby.

@gracehustle

Fiona nodded and walked over by the fire, she laid down by it and put her head on her arm, she closed her eyes and tried to ignore the fear of falling asleep without being up in a tree for safety.

@chickenfrogman group

The storm passes nearby in the night and Clovis never does wake Fiona up at midnight. Probably just cause he's nice.
He watches as the sun slowly peeks over the dusty, flat land and he smiles back at it.
Today will be good
He slowly shakes Molly awake and she angrily shoves him away, but gets up.

@gracehustle

Fiona rolled over and covered her eyes, she could sense that it was morning but she didn't want to get up. She groaned and mumbled "Noooo, it's too early in the morning…"

@chickenfrogman group

Molly stood, tied her jacket around her waist and roughly nudged Fiona with her foot.
"Geez, it's only like 6. Do you know how early they make you get up at military camps?"
Clovis smiles at Molly, furrowing his brow.
"Military camps? Really?"
She blows some hair out of her eyes, huff and walks pass him.
