Neriah heard the scream that echoed throughout the place and she knew, "Barak." She muttered his name as she paused and listened, he was in pain. She could feel it from the sound of his voice.
She had prayed he would not show, but then again she knew he would and he did, and had fallen for their tricks.
Again, she moved her feet and continued running toward where they were gathered. The faster she ran the further the place seemed.
The words 'if only' kept ringing in her head. She had so many, many things she was sorry for. So many things she wished she had and had not done, but this was no time to feel bad about anything. What was done was done, now she needed to find him.
Faster, she moved her feet, tearing through the trees, barely catching her breath as she ran.
"You shall not escape me!!" She heard a voice scream with anger. It was Lyle. She was close.
