"Sorry lad..." Wesley said after what seemed like forever. He turned off the tazer and put it up. "...any way, thanks, I'll go lookin' fer' gunpowder tomorrow. Sorry fer' waken' ya." with that he left and Drake sighed and stood up. Once he was sure he was gone he turned the light back on and looked at the girls.

After Wesley had left Molli metally broke down. But her definition of breaking was different than everyone elses. Molli felt one tear trickle down her cheek. She shivered all over and quickly wiped the tear away. Another tear fell, but then she forced them to stop. She didn't cry, not infront of Drake or Abby anyways. Meanwhile, Abby was sobbing her eyes out, not caring if she was considdered weak. She latched onto Molli who wasn't there for her at the moment. Molli shivered again ad tried to seperate herself from Abby.

Reggie and Drake stood silently, side by side. Drake sat his hand on Reggie's head and scratched his ear. For once they weren't two soldiers, they where a boy and his dog. Reggie left his side and walked slowly over to the girls whimpering softly.

Abby hugged Reggie tightly and sobbed somemore. She burried her soft cheeks in the dog's black fur and gagged for a bit. Molli just looked at Drake's shoes, fighting the tears. Her fists were clenched so tight that her knuckles showed white. She fought her glossy eyes so hardthat it looked like she was in pain.

Reggie just sighed and let her hug him and cry.

Drake looked up at Molli then sighed, he walked over and sat down next to her "Molli..." he began softly trying to think of what to say.

Molli looked at him, trying to concentrate on nt crying. She looked at him intensly, breathing stiffy "Drake" She managed, trying to keep her mind off of crying.

"Okay you need to cry or try a different method of not crying... you look like you're going to pass out..," Drake stated.

Molli actually laughed, just once, but she laughed "I'm okay..." She said, trying less hard to keep her tears contained "Just..Make me laugh...?" She asked, more of a cammand though.

"Make you laugh?" he asked raising his eye brow "Are you suggesting that you actually have emotions?!" he asked playfully acting as if he where shocked.

That made Molli laugh a little more, and smiled a little, the tears slowly edging away "Yeah, I'm pretty sure I have emotions" She commented "I'm not all that bad...Just...stubborn, and hard-headed, and angry half the time, and crazy" She laughed at herself.

"Well then, I was under the impression you where a robot..." he shrugged "So much for that thought." he continued to try and make her laugh.

Molli snorted, feeling a lot better "Well, the urge to bawl my eyes out has passed." She stated, looking down at Abby who was just petting Reggie softly now. She looked out the tent, thinking of ways she could run away. Not now, she was too weak now. But maybe in the morning...? "Are you going to send us back...Behind the gates?" Molli blurted, still looking out the tent.

He looked at her quickly then he looked down at Reggie who gave him a stern glare. He ran his hand through his hair and stood up, he kneeled down and pulled a map and a packed, back pack out from under his bed. "No... I'm not gonna make you guys go back to the city... but you guys arn't just gonna run off." he looked at Reggie "Yer' comin' with us... we're goin' East... to get outta the Wastelands."

Before Molli knew what she was doing she hugged Drake "Thank you...Oh God...Thank you..." She said, holding back the tears of joy.

Abby yipped with happiness, jumping up and squeaking.

Drake blinked a few times when Molli was suddenly hugging him "Ummm...You're welcome..."

Reggie's tail wagged and he gave an excited bark.
