The Archer.

7. Venomous territory

Y/n and Abby followed Manny as he led them down flights of stairs and into run down buildings. "Can we talk you out of this?" He said as they walked through some apartment rooms. "No, we don't know what happened. I have to find him." Abby said, trailing behind Y/n. "If he actually killed Danny-" "Fuck Danny, I'm jealous Owen got to shoot him before Y/n or I did." Abby said, interrupting Manny mid conversation. "Whoa Abby." "What? He would always say fucked up things behind my back, shit I won't be repeating." Y/n said as she passed Manny, walking to a closed door, turning the knob while listening to Manny and Abby's conversation.

"I just gotta keep following the sunset, I've done this before." Abby had said, looking out of a broken window. Y/n came up behind her, staring out of it with her. "Not with as many Scars as there are now, I don't wanna find out you died overnight, Y/n would be shattered, she wouldn't know what to do with herself, she'd get herself killed going after the Scars that could kill you." Manny said to Abby, whispering the part about Y/n. But she heard it all.

She walked into the room looking through the drawers for supplies, Abby following closely behind her. "Guys, where are you going?" They heard Manny say from the level below them. "Did you know someone is squatting here?" Abby said, rummaging through a dresser. Y/n read it over her shoulder, slapping her hand over her mouth when she realized that it was a love letter to Manny. "Whispering Spanish in my ear?" She chuckled after Abby had said that. Manny came running in and ripped the paper out of Abby's hand. "Hey! That's private." He said, folding the note, shoving it in his bag. "Shit! This is your place?" Y/n said, now laughing at him. "How many sex dens in this QZ do you have?" Abby said as Manny turned around, walking out of the room. "¿Qué? Perdona. No hablo Ingles." He said, walking away. They followed Manny down old scaffolding until they reached the ground.

"When you find him, don't hit him too hard and remember, watch yourself out there." Manny said as he walked up to the tall metal gate, leaning against it and putting his hands on top of one knee to hoist Abby over the wall. Once she was over the wall she checked the area quickly, looking for any sign of Scars around. While Abby was making sure the coast was clear, a light thud could be heard, making Abby turn around swiftly only to see Y/n regaining her balance and Manny walking away, turning around to say something. "I take that back, remember, watch each other's backs out there." He said walking backwards before turning around and climbing back up the scaffolding, jumping through a window and out of sight.

"What the fuck Y/n? I was going alone, I was doing this whole thing alone." Abby said, throwing her arms up in frustration. "I couldn't let you do this by yourself Ab's, I heard you and Manny talking and I am not in the mood to hear about your dead body being placed in the same area that Danny's is in. I will not hear about you being brought back in a body bag, I can't. If you go, I go, period. You can't stop me." Y/n said, walking past her, making a right, trying to navigate through tall bushes. "For starters dingus, you're going the wrong way. That'll take you to that run down theater or the subway, and second of all, we're staying off the highway." Abby said, pointing to the alleyway, walking in the way she pointed. Y/n got out of the greenery and quickly caught up with her. "I knew that." She said, dusting the pine needles off her shoulders.

"What's gonna happen when we find Owen?" Y/n asked Abby, finding the last bit of supplies in the shop. "We're gonna talk to him, hopefully we can get him to come back with us, and hope Isaac doesn't kill him." She said, walking out of the building with Y/n shortly following. "Hopefully." They walked in the alleyway until they walked into the back of a seamstress shop and climbed out the window above the front exit. Abby and Y/n climbed on top of a trailer and through a broken window, walking through the doorway. "Hey, you think we could get through this?" Y/n said, pointing at the small opening in the corner that trailed up to the ceiling. "Probably, I'll go first." Abby said, lightly moving Y/n out of the way.
