Its been 3 days now and things have gotten worse. Travis is still wounded and we had to move AGAIN. This time it wasn't to one of their already secret base because it turns out the Cravoiens have found all their bases. I think they have someone on the inside. I haven't shared this thought with anyone else yet.

Samuel is still trying to adjust to the changes. Everything is so twisted I don't know what to do. I want to go back to the days when I knew nothing. Many more of our men got injured. There are just about 10 of us left, including me, Travis, Angela, Anissa and Samuel. We have limited weapons and vehicles. Food's almost finished. We are drained of energy.

We rest and hide during the days and travel and nights. We move faster than way because the nights are cooler and we sweat less and get tired slower.

I wiped my hand over my forehead and looked out into the horizon. "How far before we reach the mountain tops?" I yelled out to Angela, who was treating Travis' wound.

"About four more days," she answered. I scanned the area to make sure there weren't any of Travark's men nearby and turned to enter the cave where Angela was tending Travis. Her eyebrows were knitted and she looked troubled as she contemplated something deeply. Yes, who wouldn't be troubled in this situation?

"That's strange," she mumbled then shook her head a few times to wipe away the thought and looked up at me with a tight smile. "He'll soon be alright, I guess. But I think he's going to get worse before he gets better."

I nodded my head and looked back out to where we would be travelling. I plopped down and contemplated all that's happening and what I know.

These Cravoiens take over people's body and use them as hosts. They can be removed, but how?

One thought kept bugging me though. "How comes one didn't take me over for all these years that I've been among them? Was it one of them that was in Melissa? That Travark called Aruva?"

I dosed off with those questions bugging me. I need to find out.
