Breakaway {Markiplier X OC & Lisbug X OC} BOOK ONE

chapter thirty-seven | | luna

It was scary to say the least. To think about even sending her out there with the things that we know. At least she has Echo with her. That was a little bit more comforting.

It was still worrying to send her out there. The world is not all that we once made it out to be but they both know that. At least I would hope that they both know that.

Shaking my head, I pointed my finger to the map that was laid out on the table. Mark stood next to me and across the table from us was Caleb, who for once was not with jinxx.

"They're moving." I muttered in frustration, looking to where the herd was a few days ago compared to now. The main thing in their path was a small part of town then us.

"Something's drawing them off path." Caleb says, standing up straight and running a hand through his hair. This didn't seem to be the thing to help our situation in the slightest. With everything going on the last thing we need to happen to us is the threat of a walker herd coming straight to us.

"What cold be doing that though?" Mark asked, looking to the map. "There's nothing here, we've done a sweep of the area already." Mark said and I bit my finger in thought.

"What about those scavengers?" Caleb asked and I looked to him, "Do you think it could have been them?" He asks, looKing to me.

I shake my head at him. "They care about the people in their little group to much to want to put themselves in danger. The leader seems to trust us a bit, they wouldn't do this." I say and Caleb sighs. "But I know who would." I say and they both look to me.

"Harper's group?" Mark asked me and I nodded my head a bit with a groan of frustration.

"The hard truth is that there's no turning that herd around. Whatever's got them hooked is not letting them go. So that's out of the question." I say, running a hand through my hair as I stand up and start to pace the room a bit.

"We need to move out." He says and I sigh, knowing that he's right about that. "It's our only move, to move out of the way of the herd." He says to me and I lock eyes with my twin.

"We're gonna need another car to move both this group and supplies." I say, growling a bit at the thought of a car that wasn't my own. Caleb nodded his head, looking to the map and pointing to a spot on the map.

"There." He says, making Mark and I look to the spot on the map. "Last time I was out mapping there was a couple cars in the parking lot, one of them has to be functional." He says and I nod my head.

"We'll keep this between the three of us until we can get a hold of a car. No need to start getting the group in more of a panic then they are." Caleb says and I nod my head, Mark agreeing as well.

"We'll head out tomorrow, first light, give Echo and Bella their day out today before heading out." I say, walking towards the door, motioning for Mark to follow me. "This does stay between us, no telling Echo, no Jinxx, no Lynne. No one is to know about this until we've got it under control and get our hands on a car."
