«We Could be Heroes»

Tayn was alert to their surroundings as they walked closer and closer to the fight. Both watching for enemies and a place to stash Leona. There was little movement, the forest itself had gone quiet and only the sounds of humans and inhumans hung in the air.

She spotted a big oak. It's branches twisted around and touched the ground. ( like this big old thing! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Angel_Oak_Tree_in_SC.jpg ) It looked like she might be able to hide leona in the tree, it would be easy enough to climb up one of it's branches. Now to convince her to stay there alone. Tayn stopped and stared up at the massive tree.
 
Tayn's eyes burned from lack of sleep. It was possible what she was doing was the wrong thing, but she couldn't think of any other option so she confidently marched forward.
The relatively clear sky began to fill with clouds, just a few at first but as the two girls walked together holding hands the clouds gathered together and bloomed high into the sky. The wind died and the hot humid air slowly rose, making the clouds look like bubbles in the sky. (mammatus clouds) Tayn was determined to go through with her plan, though it wasn't going to be easy. Leona strangely didn't seem to be worried at all. She skipped through the woods while holding her hand happy, Tayn thought, since she had gotten her way. The sky rumbled, briefly drowning out the roar of battle. She looked back at the trees, imagining what they would see when they got back. Janet was going to kill her if they survived, she thought. that is if Janet was still alive.

(.... Vague plan..... )
Thomas winced, he hadn`t looked at the wound on his leg yet, but River openly was "I suppose healing isn`t your power?"
~
River looked up at his face from inspecting his leg, there was deep gashes and the bone was visible "Your leg is hurt pretty bad. You can`t fight. We have to get you out of here." She said pausing, should they leave? If he stayed here he would die, what was she to do? "You think you can lean on me to walk?"
~
He blinked, was she really going to help him? "Y- Yes." he mumbled
~
River wrapped her arm around his side deciding that she had to get him out of there "Let`s go. Once I get you to safety I`ll come back to fight."
~
"Sometimes you people confuse me," Thomas said beginning to limp along beside her
~
"I`ll take that as a complement." River said with a smirk
Good thing we were only on the edge of the battle. River thought. The worst of the fighting was in the middle and they had been able to weave through the fights quite easily. They had now just came out of the battle and River glanced behind them to make sure no one was following them. "One of my team mates and a girl went this way, we should be able to find them," Hopefully though she had more sense than to add that. Her fears were instantly condemned as two figures appeared in the shadows ahead What are they doing? "TAYN!" She yelled
~
"Hey that was right in my ear," Thomas mumbled
~
"Stop whining." River snapped

Tayn jumped and pulled Leona behind her. The air thickened and roared as lightning struck the Oak, catching it's inner core on fire. Stunned she stared at River.

River winced and Thomas jumped into the air a little. They drew nearer "Welp, I guess I said that too loud." River said

"You guess," Thomas grumbled

"Tayn what are you doing? I thought you were getting Leona away?" River asked

(Andrew Garfield. Rated R. I watched one guy's legs turn to spaghetti! It was awesome.)
(... mmmm spaghetti my favorite.... :sick maybe I won't watch it... I do usually like wwI & wwII movies. but generally don't watch ones that have High casualties on screen... :eyeroll: yes I know I'm lame... and most will think that defeats the purpose of war movies. )

Tayn laughed nervously. "I was, but..." she looked at the tree, "I... almost killed you." She said blinked and looked back at River. "Crow said that Firestein has her mom." She glanced over her shoulder at Leona, who seemed unphased by the statement only more determined to keep going.
