Algernon glazed over the girl's words. He would trust her, for now. It didn't matter, really, as the raiders were so near. "Got it all, yes. Yes. MOVE OUT!" He forcefully shouted, while lowering his voice. He nodded to the other two, and pointed at the boulder he had previously mentioned. He looked around, and then got near to the ground. Bent over, he ran, sprinting as fast as possible to the boulder. He tumbled to the back of it. It was a large, spike-shaped boulder protruding from the ground at an odd angle. Algernon could probably fit on top of it, but no more. It had enough room to hide a few people behind it. He looked back for the girls briefly. Whether they had or had not followed, it didn't matter. He felt the direction of the air. Great, the scent was from the campsite way. Quietly, ever so quietly, he leaned out above the rock.
There were several of them. They were marching in a fairly uniform fashion, and they were 3 rows deep. One was obviously the leader, dressed in white while the others wore body suits of black fabric. There were 15 people following him towards the campfire. They must have been intimidated by him in some way... Algernon wondered to himself. This man must have had some valuable skill. was he immune? There was a potential friendship here... the man could be a great assistance to NVVO. In any case, they were marching towards the camp, where they would undoubtedly find the tracks. A good idea would be to not harm any of them now, but run to headquarters. If they wished, they could join at that point. Algernon got down from the rock, breathing heavily and hiding behind it.
