Chapter 52- Trust

( Quill's P.O.V.)

" You OK?" Dad asked, as Maria came out and walked toward him.

" Yeah," Maria said.

( Later)

Uncle Joel, Dad and I talked and Dad told us where Uncle Joel needed to go to find where the Fireflies are.

( Uncle Joel's P.O.V.)

" Dad I'm going," I told him. " I'm part of this too."

" You don't have to. Your Uncle can handle it."

" You always told me to finish what I started, so that's what I'm going to do. We'll come back here when we're done."

I hugged Marie and Dad and started getting ready to head to The University of Eastern Colorado.

( 11 days later)

( Ellie's P.O.V.)

" OK," I said. " So let me get this straight. If you mess up your fourth down, then you give the ball to the other team?"

" Right," Joel told me. " It's called a turnover."

" And if you clear the ten yards then your back at... first down?"

" First down. That's right."

" Man, that's confusing."

" Thank you." Quill said.

We stopped when Callus ( the horse) entered the outer side of the campus so Joel and Quill could scavenge.

" What kind of name is Callus anyway?" Joel asked me as he walked away.

" It sounds cool."

I didn't take very long for them to come back.

" What is that?" I asked Quill.

" A flamethr-" I started.

Uncle Joel took it from me.

When we got to the middle of the campus, I spotted the building on the spot.

We entered the building and started to hear moaning.

" Sounds like Runners," I said. " I take them out."
