"Okay, well let's go then." Ayrie said, her stomach was in knots over leaving Asran, but she knew if he was okay with it she should be as well. She tripled her sheilding just in case, but doubted it would be needed if he trusted Mara. "I'll come see you tomorrow, Asran, if it's safe."

She said this last as she followed Mara outside the clinic, and although her brain said to trust Asran, every hair on her body was on end. She felt as though she were being watched, but she couldn't see anyone.

[i]'Please, just let me get to the house safely. Let the priests be at home and unaware.'[/i] she thought to herself.

Gerrick and Darrin packed as much as they could, as neatly as they could, in order to be ready as soon as Ayrie returned. They got the car ready to go, a small piece of junk that was all the Church would give it's missionaries. It was rusting and the interior was faded and falling apart. Half the time it didn't even get into gear.

"I think that's all we need. Leave the rest, it can all be replaced." Gerrick said, assuming the leadership role as Darrin was quite upset at the sudden turn of events.
