Brielle exhaled immensely relieved when the creature split in two and shattered on the ground. Her heart was racing a mile a minute and she finally remembered to breath. They had done it! She couldn't believe they had done it! She had been almost certain that they would have faced the same fate as the boy. She was in ecstatic disbelief and barely heard West asking if she was all right. She nodded vaguely and when he walked off she quickly followed after him. 

When they had cleared the forest she turned to face him as he started to walk away. She wanted to thank him but she didn't actually expect him to stick around. After all under the circumstances everyone had to watch out for themselves. So she was surprised when he turned back around and offered to team up. She blinked at him surprised by the offer. 

She considered it for a moment. If he teamed up with her that would be one more responsibility that she would take on. If she agreed there was no way she would allow anything to happen to him. That made her nervous. This game was scary enough just worrying about her own life much less someone else. She couldn't help her protective instincts though. Growing up with two younger sister had given her a strong sense of protecting those around her. She didn't know if she could handle that responsibility however she had a feeling he was right. 

It had taken both of them to take out that wasp, which was a relatively easy enemy. She shuddered to think what would happen if she went off alone. She decided that the safest, best course of action would be to team up with him just until she could get enough experience to play solo. 

She nodded in agreement with a small smile, "I think it's a good idea. Thank you for helping me."
