Tuyen was exhausted, and had curled herself up on the sofa in the living room they’d take refuge in. It had taken a while for her shadow to go back to its normal state once she’d started running, even when the immediate danger was gone it had taken great pleasure in remaining in the physical world. There were quite a few dents in buildings from it just going ham at punching whatever it could. It seemed to take great joy in the way the damage made Tuyen flinch.

Thankfully it had gone back to normal before she’d properly met up with the others (or it might’ve attacked one of them). Now it was just there, taunting her with thoughts of how everyone could die. How those things might find them again and forcing her to constantly hear their laughter.

She really hoped Justin made it out – he was a good friend, one of the few she really trusted. Probably technically still her boyfriend, not that that mattered anymore. They hadn’t exactly talked properly in a long time. And anyway, it had been more of a close friendship the whole time.

Not that any of that was important right now.

“Yup, I do,” Rien nodded to Kimberley, pulling the map out from where they’d had it protected under their jacket. Good thing too, or the snowfall would’ve destroyed it. “As much as I was running for my life, I wasn’t going to lose what they came for.”

They stood up and cleared some space on the table to put the map down on it.

“Gotta say, though, map reading was never something I was good at.”
