The New Era

The Hunt

They trotted off, to where they had heard then door had been built. Helen spotted Morgan, and so she told Galloway where to go, gripping the reins and steering. Galloway was a behaved horse, and she knew that she could trust Helen. She obeyed, and when they came close in contact to Morgan, she stopped.

Helen got off Galloway, but she still held the reins. Then she let go, becuase she knew Galloway was a good horse, and she wouldn't leave. "Morgan," she called out. Galloway trotted behind her every move.

Morgan turned around, he was inspecting the door, still praising Noor and her team. When he saw Helen, he shaked, but then pretended as if it were nothing, "Oh, hello Helen."

"The door," Helen began. "We're going to hunt. Me and Galloway."

"I didn't think you were serious," Morgan told her. He was honest. Who, in their fit mind, would want to venture into a world outside of the dome? An idiot?

Helen gave a glare. She replied, "I am serious."

"It's dangerous. With that bird and all," Morgan began. He got out his fingers, ready to list all the potential dangers for her.

She held out her hand to stop him, her palm facing his face. "I'm not scared of that bird. You'll see."

"It's not just the bird," Morgan told her. He explained that a few minutes ago, maybe seventeen (he forgets a lot) minutes, some people reported a new species. It was a bird, people said. It appeared to be more of a wolfish creature, a canine they and agreed, with vicious fangs and an icy glare.

Helen looked to Galloway, then back to Morgan. "So what," she said arrogantly. She took Galloway reins, and hopped onto the saddle, still gripping the reins. She told Morgan to move aside, and let them go.

Morgan wouldn't budge. "It's dangerous, Helen!"

Helen rolled her eyes.

Jacob looked out to the window, to see where all the commotion was. Amy and fallen fast asleep, and so he decided to go explore the city for a while. He was tired of sitting in a  chair and watching. He knew Amy would be fine. He knew.

He left the hospital with an air of anxiousnous. He then realized where the commotion was, and it was no surprise. It was where the door had been built. He quickly went over.

He watched as Morgan and Helen went back and forth, arguing.

"You can't," Morgan yelled at her. "You're risking your life for this?"

"I'd rather die with an adventure, than none at all," she shout back. And she kept repeating for him to let her and Galloway pass.

Jacob couldn't help but interfere. "What's the commotion?" he asked.

Morgan felt pleased that Jacob had asked, for he was getting annoyed at hearing Helen's piercing voice. He answered, and told him exaclty what.

Jacob, instead if just leaving, said quickly, "I can come with her."

Morgan was shocked. He wouldn't let them have it.

Helen was pleased. She replied happily, "See? Even a young boy has better sense than you. Now leave, you moron. Let us pass."

Morgan sighed, and moved aside. He tried to think of it positively: at least they would have less mouths to feed.

Helen reached out her hand to Jacob, and helped him settle into the saddle, and made his sit right behind her. She gripped the reins, and they left the dome.

Now they were into an unknown world. This world isn't safe anymore. Helen decided to make a quick kill in this place, and quickly rush into the dome. She didn't feel the adventure today.
