Running, running, running. He passed trees and orchards and roads and houses... or at least remains... He passed so much in one day... Life was exciting on the run. Or at least, thats what he tried to convince himself of.

All Todd did was run now. He needed to find them... her. She would know. They needed his information. They needed it so bad! How would they all survive? How would he survive? His mother? Even his sisters were in danger! How, how, how? It was a race. A race between Todd Adams and time, Todd and space, Todd and the rebellion, Todd and the 'assosiation'... Todd and the creatures...

A backpack bounced on his back, necessities only. It was a long trip to get to her... to get to the rebellion and all the refugees. To get away from the 'Project'.

They would keep him and his mother safe. They needed him so bad. 

He looked behind to see her struggling behind him and he slowed down. Not much, but too much. They couldn't afford to lose speed. They wouldn't get there otherwise. They would run out of time in every possible way, time to get there before they moved on, time before he and his mother would soon be deceased... if they didn't hurry up!

"Come on Mum! They're gaining on us!"

If he didn't get to the rebellion first... they would all die...
