The back Amelia was looking at was nothing like the one she followed yesterday. Even still, she felt they belonged to the same person. Shame burned on her face for not only following him but also getting captured in the process. She was not only a sneaky rat but a very dumb one that would bring plague with it.
"Ugh," The man groaned and clutched his chest. Amelia looked at him worryingly and saw him wipe the blood off the corner of his mouth. It was then that Amelia realized he was getting slower.
"Are you okay?"
"Shut up." The man snapped back at her, and Amelia flinched slightly. He seemed to realize his mistake as he apologized. "Sorry, just be quiet lest they find us."
As he asked, Amelia said no further words. She could also feel their pursuers getting closer to their position. The scenery around them was one of trees, groves, and more trees. They kept zigzagging through them hoping for their pursuers to lose their tail.
