"W-what are we going to do?" The teenager asked, when I suddenly stopped moving. "Shouldn't we be walking to find a hospital?"

"We won't make it. He won't make it." I say, looking at my surroundings.

"So what do we do?" She asks, completely terrified. Playing with a piece of leaf anxiously.

"We try." I say, I take the leave and some branches, and try to find the origin of the wound, and stop the blood. I did learn something from my mother...

"S-s-she's dead..." She whispers. "SHE'S DEAD!" She yells so hard that my ears hurt a little.

"Hello?"

I turn to look, Peter has his eyes opened with fear. He's awake...
