Sam's POV
"Stop here," I tell Lily. She pulls the car to a stop and cuts the lights, leaning back in her seat. "You're far enough away from the base that you shouldn't be noticed. They tend not to send scouts out this far. So, stay here and stay quiet and if at any point I tell you to get the hell out of here you do it."
"How far is the base from here?" Lily questions.
"Not too far but I still have to hike a pretty good distance," I gesture out the window to the trees. "It's late and likely most of the base is asleep other than the people on guard duty. I should be in and out without a problem." I push open the door and step out into the cool night air.
I turn back to Lily. "If you're spotted and in trouble, don't wait for me. Get out. I'll be able to find my own way back."
