[b]Tyler - Baton Rouge/Bingo Hall - Katie/George[/b]

Relief was quickly replaced with wariness. The man's story about the backpacks felt off to Tyler, though the guy sounded completely sincere as he relayed it. Tyler wanted to think more on it, but he instead took hold of Katie's arm and nudged her away. The man's offer of travelling together only made Tyler feel more wary. "Why do you want to? Two more mouths to feed, one a little girl... I don't see what you get out of this." Even with Katie complaining of hunger, Tyler didn't feel right taking anything more from this man. It'd been a long time since Tyler trusted easily, and it would be a long time before he ever did so again.

"These supplies... You just found them? What if they were someone else's? You haven't been here very long, so they could come back and find all of us stealing from them." Tyler shook his head and held his grip on Katie's shoulder. "Maybe that's your plan, to blame us when they get back, I don't know. Either way, you're gambling with my daughter's life." He knew he wasn't just being paranoid, he [i]knew[/i] just about anything could go wrong at any time. You always planned for the worst, as that was the only way to survive.

[b]Shannon - Campsite - Emma/Rob/Finch[/b]

As Shannon held James in her arms, she knew finding Valentina would be impossible at night. It had been foolish of her to wander out into the woods in search of the young girl. She should have died for that mistake. She must have had a guardian angel looking out for her, for it was the only way she could reason how she still lived when so many others did not. "James... let's go back now. We shouldn't be out here." She got to her feet and held the boy by the hand as they walked back in the direction of their camp site. Eventually, James let go of her hand so he could hold her while they walked. She felt him silently weep into her side.

As they neared the fishing line, Shannon could see Emma's flashlight looking over the camp, possibly looking for them. Shannon quickened her step and hopped over the fishing line, but that's when she realised something was wrong. She heard voices and shuffles, indicating that Emma wasn't alone. Shannon told James to get down as she cautiously stepped up next to the tent. She peered over the side to find Emma hugging a man. In the dark of night, Shannon could swear she saw the face of Rob, one of the men from Haywood. Another man lurked off to the side, speaking in a panicked German accent. Shannon's fear gave way to confusion as she stood up straight so that the two men could spot her. "Uh, we're not going to kill anyone," she managed to say. "Is this a friend of yours, Rob? ... And what are you doing here?"
