Kory began to low crawl towards the trees and glanced back. She was right behind him following along and he smiled. , thinking about how easy it was going , and how much he liked being a bandit. Much better than a slave , or doing some other boring job like a shoemaker or something. Every so often he would pause and listen. The men were all snoring and snorting like big hogs and Kory crawled a little further. Just past the half way mark he heard a little muffled grunt and his smile faded. He glanced back and could see that the girl was passed out. Face down and immobile , with her arm outstretched towards him. Keeping calm and taking a deep breath he turned on his hands and knees and took her hand . He slowly dragged her the rest of the way until they reached the cover of the trees.  He hated to do it that way because it scratched her up , but he didn’t have much choice in the matter.<br/><br/>He glanced back at the brutes and they hadn’t moved from their previous positions around the fire. Kory lifted her up  - cradled her in his arms and began to walk.  Following the river and  putting as much distance as he could between the brutes and them before sunrise came. He looked down at her face and noticed she looked pretty behind all the scratches.<br/><br/><a class="username" data-user-id="3881" data-username="@PrincessCrystal" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" href="https://blackdahliaroleplaying.com/members/3881/">@PrincessCrystal</a>
