Going to find Safety

Augustus and Neil were quick to get up, "What do you mean? Where do we go?" Augustus asked, very concerned. Kamaria shook her head "They know you're here, the church. They want you dead, they told me if I saw you to kill you on sight! I don't have much time, they're expecting me back soon, just go somewhere, anywhere! Just leave this area!" She said frantically. "You're letting us go?" Neil asked as she watched her panic, "Yes, yes, now go!" She said as she ran off back towards the church. Neil and Augustus looked at eachother and paniced "Well you heard her, we have to leave!" Augustus said as he grabbed Neil and began walking in the opposite direction from the church. "Where do we go, Gus? I barely remember anything past the last few weeks, we thought this place would be safe, secluded, that we wouldn't get found or slaughtered here!" Neil said as he struggled to comprehend the situation at hand. Augustus stopped in his tracks and turned towards Neil "Neil.. it'll be ok. We'll find somewhere else, and be safe there. Kamaria could have killed us.. but she warned us, she wants us to live. We just have to stay calm and just keep doing what we are doing" Augustus explained and gave a reassuring smile to his friend. Neil sighed "Thanks, Gus. You seem to keep me at a level head" he said and they both went off deep into the wilderness. Kamaria made it back to the temple and found her father packing, "Father, are we leaving?" She asked. Hevanst smiled "Its just for now, dear. We'll be back as soon as they find that fog demon or until the area is cleared and safe" he said to her, Kamaria nodded and helped her father pack some bags. Lesk and Renee were helping them as they were getting ready to leave, Hevanst walked up to Kamaria as she was throwing her cloak around her shoulders "Kamaria, This will be your first time into the town, Please stay close to us and keep your hood on over your head" he said as he flipped her hood up and on her head. "Why's that, Father?" She asked him, Hevanst sighed "Dear, because of your.. uniqueness, people tend to stare or maybe try to take advantage of your kindness or powers. I just want to protect you." He said. Kamaria nodded "Ok, Father, Thank you for wanting to protect me" she said with a smile. Hevanst smiled back "You're welcome, sweetheart. Now, lets get going, Lesk and Renee are waiting for us at the wagon" he said as he picked up the last of the baggage and lead Kamaria outside and into the wagon that was waiting for them.
