Isabella crept through the dense foliage, moving into her usual hunter's position.
A sudden burst of realization hit her, thinking that Isabella was supposed to be dead and a Peacekeeper creeping through the forest was rather odd.
She straightened, red flaring in her cheeks and tromped off.
A faint pondering light in her mind, tracing back to...Lore. Of all people, she was thinking about Lore. God, why was she thinking about him? She couldn't help it though, her mind forced it.
She bit her lip. Where is he? What is he doing now?

Peter crept along after Wren, his taller build allowing him to scout ahead for anything suspicious. The small cabin appeared as they drew nearer, looking for all the world like a deserted logger's place.
However, as they came closer, hardly unnoticable signs of life became apparent. A fresh stack of logs for burning when it got cold. The grass around the door was bent.
"Good to be home," Peter murmered.

Isabella lean against a terribly tall oak, resting for a moment.
Though, she was really scanning the vicinity, searching for intruders.
Or maybe a rebel.

He entered the small glade, walking in a circle around the house, eyes turned to the forest. His eyes suddenly lite up as he found what he was looking for. Peter walked briskly over to a stump, wrapped his arms around it, and grunted. Slowly, the tree base turned. A few seconds later, the stump top screwed off, revealing a small hole.
"Down there's a small tunnel to get inside," Peter explained. "I never use the front door, in case a Peacekeeper decided to take a nap from patrols."

Isabella kicked a stray pebble away, irritated immensely with the entire situation. Her Peacekeeper rifle rattled at her side.

"Ladys first." He turned to the hole with a sweeping gesture. "Careful, though," he warned. "It's only three feet high."

High up in the trees, Xene watched the people down below, with a sly smile on her face. Her wild hair fell around her dirtied face, her even wilder looking eyes peering out from behind it all. She held back snickers, searching for any unguarded food or supplies.





The man seemed unrelentless though, intent on dragging them.
A house was approaching, rundown and seemingly abandoned, if it wasn't for the tad bit of smoke trailing from the chimney.


Until Lore had shown her it.
Isabella shook her head, shaking the thoughts of him away, though they seemed intent on staying.
She breathed a sigh, pulling her stark white rifle up higher on her shoulder.

((She should escape, run after them, and then... well, there is a number of options from there. ))
Xene gasped at the weapon. She hated guns. Hated them. She wouldn't tell anybody why ever, but, she loathed them.



"Hello, Modre and Matthew I presume?" How did he know about Modre?
Matthew still lay under consiousness, unstirring.









"Well, since you insisted on coming, you can help clean." He muttered, pulling Matthew's blanket up to the boy's chin before leaving.

"I don't really think I'm in moving condition." Mo said with a dark chuckle, unable to get up from the floor where she laid. "Should've thought of that."

"Pull up a chair and clean socks." Was his response, a bucket landing before her, brimmed with soapy water and socks.

"Yes you can. Or else you wouldn't have been able to untie that filthy rag from Mr. Johnson's leg." He called, stepping from the house. How on earth how had he known that?

"Alright, I can move my fingers on my left hand. Yippee!" Mo snorted sarcastically, her voice getting louder as he walked away. "You seem to know everything, why don't you tell me what condition I'm in!"

"Able to clean socks." He was gone, the door slamming shut with an audible crack.
Matthew's eyes fluttered open, his brow furrowing as he glanced at Modre.

"I'm not cleaning his damned socks." Mo muttered, before looking at Matt. "Matt, are you okay?"

Matthew rolled his eyes. At least he had the energy for that.
"Yeah, I am completely fine. I have no injuries at all and I could dance right now." Matthew muttered sarcastically.
"You got the sock bucket? Be glad, that is a compliment. He reserves the worst chores for those he doesn't like."

"Woohoo, I got the sock bucket! I feel blessed!" Mo cheered sarcastically, looking at Matthew, "What, I'm capable of sarcasm too."
