Kara followed behind at a safe distance, not too far, but not too close. She was still shaking, the langue could easily show up any moment now and kill Len and Irs. Then she would be alone ago, she seemed to have a knack for surviving unforgiving odds.
"Hey uh, where exactly are we going?"
In her mind Kara imagined a huge compound, full of people all living happily. It would be like the langue didn't exist. Everytime she blinked she could see it again, her parents would be there, her mentor would be there. But most importantly Anna would be there, sweet innocent Anna with her beautiful blue eyes and long blonde hair.
Kara had thought about giving up many times, finding a way to kill herself. But Anna wouldn't want that, she always had a dream and Kara was going to make sure it happened.
Every night back at the sanctuary Kara and Anna would climb up onto the roof of the living quarters and watch the sunset together, cuddling.
"We're gon' expand this place"
Anna would say this every time
"Find new people, repopulate."
Kara would always just sit and listen to Anna talk about her plan
"My father reckoned there's a way to kill all the langue, he never told me what though. But I'm gon' find it Kara, you can trust me on that. And when I do, we're gonna get married and have a family of our own. It'll be like this never happened!"
Kara's eyes opened and she was back to reality, her eyes began to well up again.
"Anna..." she said to herself, though Len and Iris could hear her quite well
