The guards would not give up easily, and Dabi knew they had to keep moving.
"We need to split up," Dabi suggested, his mind racing.
"If we stay together, they'll find us.
We can regroup later at the hideout."
The rebels nodded, their expressions serious. "It's risky," Garak said, "but it might be our only chance."
"Then let's do it," Dabi replied firmly.
"We'll meet back at the camp in two days.
Stay hidden and keep your heads down.
We need to regroup and plan our next move."
As they parted ways, Dabi felt a mixture of hope and fear.
He had forged a connection with these rebels, a bond formed through shared struggle and sacrifice.
They were fighting for freedom, and Dabi was determined to see it through.
With one last look back at his comrades, he slipped deeper into the forest, his heart pounding in his chest.
