Cassie knew Serix didn't exactly want to bring her along. He was trying to protect her and keep her safe by attempting to leave her here, but she didn't want that. She didn't want to wait there alone until he got back. If he got back. It would be torturous. She wouldn't be able to stay there and would end up leaving the hideout just to go look for him anyway. So, this was the best thing for both of them. Two minds, two sets of eyes and ears, and two fighters were better than one. Together they could make it through whatever was waiting for them outside of this place. Alone; maybe they could have made it, but the chances would have been slim in her opinion. Which is why she wanted to go with him. She laughed softly as he ruffled her blond hair and nodded, "I'll be right back." She then rushed back to the bedroom and it didn't take long to grab everything she needed, which wasn't much. In fact, it was just two things; simply her own backpack to carry to put supplies in and two bottles of water for them to drink. It was summer after all, and knowing this area it might get hot. That is, if it didn't rain. With the weather, one didn't know and so it was always good to be prepared. After double checking and making sure she didn't need anything else, she smiled and nodded, heading back out into the hallway. Going over to where he sat, she smiled down at him, "Well, Serix. Come on. The sooner we leave, the sooner we can get back." Taking his hand and pulling him to his feet, she gave him another kiss before unlocking and heading out the door of the hideout, into the office building. Once she made sure the hideaway was locked up, she walked slowly with hi, creeping quickly and quickly through the building under they reached the door. Outside, it was easy to tel it was still dark out, too early even for the sun to be out yet. That woudl give them perfect cover. Looking back at him, she took his hand and squeezed it affectionately before letting go and making her way out of the office with him, into the outside world. It was scary to be out side after so long. Used to be, before the aliens came back, she woudl go out without having to worry about anything but wild animals. Now they were u against something more deadly and that was intelligent beings that knew how to move, fight, and track them down. They woudl have to be very careful. Moving along the walls of one of the building, she lead them along, making their way toward where she knew the store to be, trying to make this trip quickly and safely with hopes all this would go okay.
