I had a really busy weekend, and this week might be pretty crazy too. But I am still here, and I'm trying to figure out a way to bring in my character
I'm going to be away this weekend!
Alex. Reaching new levels of sneaky
Alex listened from the shadows of the trees as the trio seemed to calm down enough to communicate with each other. Alex was liking the man's style more and more. He had a cool approach to everything, even when the redhead was pointing a crossbow at his friend. He even got in between it and his friend, improbably guessing that the redhead lacked the guts to fire on the two of them. And he spoke in such a way that Alex knew he meant business. Alex shivered again as the rain began to start, holding back a growl. Great, right as her clothes were starting to get dry. She watched as the man pushed past the redhead, with his friend with the cool hair following close behind. Both of them pushed past the girl violently.
It was clear to see who was the easier target. The redhead seemed to be too scared to move, easy pickings. Alex waited until it seemed like the man and the woman were a distance away before she began to creep out of the trees, still keeping hidden. She needed the element of surprise. But right as she was making herself seen she noticed something. The redhead was crying. Alex swallowed, tense. And then quickly ducked back into the trees as the girl ran past her, trying to catch up.
Alex let out a soft curse, knowing the redhead wouldn't be able to hear her. She half expected the man and woman to laugh her off. What could the two of them do with such an emotional weakling? Bait maybe. She was mostly angry at her loss of a good target. Alex rolled her eyes, trying to compose herself. The redhead likely didn't have anything on her. Her painfully empty stomach forced her to check the abandoned fire pit, to see if any of the squirrel remained. But there was nothing but dust.
She looked up at the three figures, now pretty far away. Maybe they would eventually kick out the redhead. Or better yet, lead Alex to something. She followed behind the three, keeping as slow and quiet as she could. She was getting pretty close to them, but something was making it hard to walk. The ground and mud felt loose and shifty. Alex nearly found herself stumbling, catching herself. But not before letting out a curse and a gasp.

Working on a quick post :D
I plan on posting after you guys :D I am making Alex follow behind in hopes of robbing you guys eventually
I should probably try and post again, but it might be easier to have Alex follow this group to their shelter or whatever
I totally didn't just do lazy relationship update
Alex was totally and completely lost. She was lost in more then one definition of the word. She had no idea where she was, or if she was even close to her end location. The girl had never read a map or even held one, so her geographical location was a complete mystery to her. But she also felt lost in the psychological sense, although she would never admit it. She wasn't sure how to act without a set leader, she had never been a leader herself.
And little did she know, she was going the wrong way entirely.
The young girl paused a moment, trying to recover breath and strength she couldn't remember ever having. She bent over at the waist, hands bracing on her knees. She shivered involuntarily even as the sun bore down on her exposed skin. It had rained that part night, and Alex had made the mistake of falling asleep out in the open. She could have been eaten, but instead woke up soaked to the bone and ill feeling. Her backpack and supplies had become completely waterlogged as well, feeling heavy on her back.
A far off sound caught Alex's attention. It sounded like voices talking, or more like arguing, in the distance. Alex tried to push back her fear, she would have to do the only thing she knew how to do. Steal. Alex crept close to the ground, her light steps coming in handy now, as she approached the camp. She kept to the shadows, completely hidden to anyone who wasn't looking close enough. There were three people, a man and two women. Maybe a group? They seemed to be all arguing with each other, the red head had a weird weapon, the girl with the cool Mohawk was jumping on the man.
And watching that squirrel fall into the fire broke Alex's heart. She clamped an arm around her empty stomach, trying to smother the biting hunger. Well the option of stealing their food was out, but she remained watching. Maybe they would all kill each other and there would be things to loot. She shivered again, wishing the heat of the fire would reach a little farther.
