Finally, they were there. The guy in her arms was getting heavier with every step and Takiko had been afraid if they had taken any longer to arrive at her van, they might not have made it after all. She was pretty strong, but there were limits to a womans body, especially after the kind of diet she'd been forced on for a long time now. She almost smiled when they crossed the dirt road and took a turn to head for the van. She had forced herself not to look back once, but the rifle their knight was using was so loud, she was sure for every creature he killed, two new ones arrived. Looking ahead she sighed in relieve at the sight of her car not too far away now, and scowled the next second at seeing two creatures standing, if you could call it that, besides it. As if they were waiting for the owner to get back. A sign of intelligence? the scientific part of her mind spoke up, but she forced it back. This was so not the time to be starting to analyze those creatures now. Their knight had noticed as well and in a matter of seconds took care of the two by the car. Then they arrived and fished the car keys out of her pocket, quickly unlocking the back door. She opened the door and made sure her patient could hold onto something to stay upright, before she let go of him, through both their bags inside and then climbed in herself, turning to help him up. She glanced at their knight for a moment. He looked young. She would actually put him somewhere around eighteen, considering his appearance, his height and the length of his limbs, as well as the finer details of his face. Generally, she was pretty good, or had been, at evaluating peoples age. But she hadn't had any practice for a while now. If you met someone out here, another survivor, it didn't usually matter how old he or she is. Now, it was different though. If he was around eighteen, then the chances of him being able to drive were slim. Noone was there to teach him, so it was not his fault. But she'd much rather take care of her patient than drive. "I assume I'll have to drive?" she asked him, just to make sure.
