Ellie's P.O.V.

" So, let me get this straight," I said as we arrived at the university. " If you mess up your fourth down, then you give the ball to the other team?" 

" Yeah. It's called a turnover." Jake said as he hopped off Callus. " Hide the horse. I'll check the place out." 

He gave me a walkie. " Keep this on and low on the volume and always keep it with you. I'll tell you if I found anything." 

" Shouldn't you take me with you?" 

" Someone needs to wait for Tara." 

" Tara's capable of taking care of herself. What if you-"

" Ad if there is a sniper, were both dead." 

" Then I'll stick close."

" Who's gonna watch the horse so someone doesn't steal him?"

" If this was a camp, why aren't their guards? Especially out here. Where's the perimeter?" 

" At least leave a note for her. Stick to me like glue."

" A sheep has entered the area." She said over her walkie as she shot Callus in the head, making me jump. 

She was just a kid. The hell's going on?

She passed the wall we were hiding behind us and started humming and skipping as an explosion filled the air. 

" No more Firefly Lab." She started singing, skipping away. 

With that, a few vehicles exited the university and picked up the girl, then sped off as another explosion happened.

" The fuck are we going to do now?" I asked.

" No clue."
