Nick let go of Aslinn's mouth, but signalled to be quite. He put his mouth near her ear and whispered, "Let's try to get ahead of them." Aslinn nodded and wiped at her face. The two darted into the nearest building and sprinted through. They stopped and listened down the alley, realizing that simple act had gotten them ahead. Aslinn shook her head though. It was still too close. The couple darted through a second building and took up posts, Aslinn sitting in a main room while Nick climbed up the walls. They waited, hoping the survivors would come their way. As Nick climbed he heard Aslinn start to cry again and he rolled his eyes. Daft girl! he thought.
