Aberrant deinonychus

Chapter eleven

After around thirty minutes of running, we stopped at a clearing to catch our breath, and because it was getting dark.

“Ok, get off my back now,” I said to Berry and Carter. They hopped off, and Carter started to build a fire.

“What now,” Leo said with a slightly sad expression.

“I guess we try to leave? I mean, I only looked back once, but when I did those Nameless things were chasing us,” I said.

“Do you think we’re being hunted,” asked Berry fearfully.

“I don’t know,” Leo said honestly. Fifteen minutes later, it was dark and Carter had gotten a fire started, which we were all huddled around.

“I’ll take first watch, in case we are being followed,” I said.

“I’ll take second. We’ll rotate at midnight,” Leo said.

I nodded.

Five hours later

I was starting to regret offering myself to take first watch.

‘Only two more hours’ I thought to myself as my eyes grew heavier.

One hour an fifty-five minutes later

I shuffled over to Leo and started shaking him awake. He apparently wasn’t in to deep of a sleep, because he woke up almost immediately.

“You’re turn for watch,” I whispered.

I didn’t see what his reaction was, because I fell asleep almost instantly.

I woke up to Leo shaking me awake. When he saw my wake up, he said, “Ripper, you’ll never believe this! Carter just found something amazing!”

“What is it,” I said groggily.

“A way out.”
