The first few days in Moreno territory went like this - we walked until our legs couldn"t move any longer, and then pushed them further. We rationed our food and didn"t get nearly as much sleep as we needed. I kept everyone going whether they wanted to or not. We lost the first member of our squad, and I"m not ready to lose another just because we weren"t vigilant enough. We posted a watch at night and someone was always scanning behind us as we moved.
We haven"t seen another Mexican patrol since the fight. None of us are in any shape to fight, but I"m itching for something to do other than walking. Lee and I went hunting during one stop yesterday, but the whole thing turned weird when Lee gave me that look. Most girls would melt under his stare.
“Not now. Not here,” I told him.
