Ning grabbed Shara and ran away along the back alley. He did not dare bring her out of the alleys, especially not into open roads where there was the chance of the directors getting to him.
"What do we do? Where do we go?" Shara asked, worried.
"Wherever it is, we need to leave quickly," Ning said. He looked around and some clothes that had been tossed in the alleyway, like rags.
He quickly wrapped the rags around his spear tip, hiding the blade within in. "Dammit, we left out the other spear in my room," he said softly.
"My clothes are all back in my room too," Shara said. She was wearing a simple dress for now, nothing extravagant, but also nothing insignificant.
Ning thought for a moment and shook his head. "We can't go back now. Whatever we left behind, forget about it. We can only run away now."
"We should go to my house," Shara said. "Stay there for a few days."
