Exhausted we came to a dual carriageway, where a college minibus and a refrigerated food delivery lorry were parked alongside around twenty youths, a mix of mainly boys and a few girls just older than me. It seemed Alex and his team were the eldest in their team.
The youths silently cheered as they greeted each other, eagerly stripping the five men from their luggage bit by bit. I understood now why only Alex was luggage free, with an ability like his only he really needed to remain on guard. Though I envied the trust they all had in him to do that.
If only I had Jianyu, though he was a big fat liar, I knew he'd always keep me safe. In a world like this, what more could you ask for?
Alex turned to grip my shaking cold fists, "take them onto the minibus and tell them I sent you to get the engine and heater started." Alex ordered with all signs of his bashful demeanor from before gone amongst his younger peers.
