She was hysterical. Hysterical, and terrified, and simultaneously overjoyed.
Zev was here. He was holding her hand and leading her through the dark, and if she hadn't just seen two men die, or almost die, she would have said it was the best moment of her life.
Instead, she was cackling aggressively, and snorting so hard she wondered if she'd torn a sinus.
"Please," she gasped a minute later, when Zev tugged her into a little thicket and began pulling a dead tree apart. A tree that turned out not to be a tree at all, but a pile of branches taller than her head, hiding a jeep.
Of course, it was. Who didn't leave whole cars just lying around for later use in an emergency?
Another shrill giggle broke in her throat. "P-please tell me you're going to shake a bush and reveal dinner for two?" she snorted.
Zev didn't share her jollies. "It's shock, Sash," he said quietly. "Just breathe. It'll pass."
