Emmy saw the others had gone. She remembered Leanna saying some thing about a guy named blake in town. Hesitating on witch way was town, she stated heading north. Her six year old sense of direction wasn't the best. After a while of walking she heard voices. Then of coarse she got another vision. It was of a boy and a girl helping a wounded boy. She snapped back to reality. Emmy was happy she had found more people and rushed in that direction. Just incase her vision of the future was wrong, witch they had yet to be, she tightened her little hand around the pistol. 

Leanna woke up, somehow Jen and Z had gotten her here. For some reason Emmy and Robin were not with them, but her elf ears detected a sound coming from the northern direction. She could only hope it was Emmy and not a zombie, for she started to run after the noise. She new that Jen and Z were most likely staring at her gaping. She turned around.

Look guys, i am going after that noise. There is a chance that it is Emmy or even a group of other people. If i have a chance to find Emmy, I am taking that chance. You can either follow me, or you can go a separate way, but I finally have someone, something to live for, and I am going to find that someone, even if it kills me.

She could only hope her friends would follow her. If they didn't, she wouldn't really consider them friends.

Kyle knew that most likely Isaiah wouldn't have helped him of it weren't for Ash. Kyle hadn't even known that two people as opposite as them could be in the same room without strangling each other, but they made it work somehow. He wasn't really aware of where they were and how they were helping him up, he was more focused on getting over the car. Finally they made it over.

Thanks guys. When i get my magic back I promise I'll make it up to you.

He started waling forward, trying to block out the pain from his leg. Suddenly he saw the figure of a girl moving toward them. he ducked behind a pile of scrap metal, and motioned for the others to do the same. He hoped that they did, but he was to concentrated on whether this person was a zombie or not.

Thank the Lord, it is just a little girl.

Relief washed over him, and he almost stepped out from behind the pile, but he noticed someone coming from the opposite direction. This girl was much closer, and running much to fast to be a zombie, but there were still some hostile people alive, and it couldn't hurt to be careful. As she got closer, he noticed that she looked a little familiar. The outline, the hair, the eyes...

No way. It can't be, she couldn't have survived...

Tears sparkled in his eyes. He never thought she would see her again.

It's Leanna. I found her.

Leanna! LEANNA!

He disregarded everything, and ran out from behind the pile, the pain in his leg had been wiped completely out of his mind. She had just cleared the car. Only a few more agonizing yards separated them, and he braced himself for the hug that he knew was going to come.

I think I know just the place Emmy.

She hugged the little girl next to her

So nice to see you again Emmy. I hope those zombies didn't hurt you.

She did a quick glance over Emmy, and healed a few scratches on her. She then started to walk towards the forest that was about a mile away. She knew forests like the palm of her hand. There was nothing in them that hid from her, and nothing that she couldn't hide from.

Sorry if anyone here has a fear of forests, but I know an old elven safe house in there. It is enforced with magic, and we should be safe for at least a couple days, plus it has a built in silent alarm system, so if a zombie gets near us we will know immediately.

Leanna started walking forward. She wished she had some reinforcement from Z, but she hadn't said a word the entire time. It was almost like everyone had expected Z to be the leader in the beginning, and she had just kinda faded. Leanna was thankful for the experience of leadership for when she was queen, that is if she and Kyle weren't the last elves, but she didn't feel like it was her place to take over for Z. She did seem to be leading them a lot now though. At least now she had Kyle to help her.

Come on, lets get a go before more zombies find us, I'm not sure exactly how far we are away from the portal I made, but we can't be far. If the zombies stumble across it and we are anywhere near it, we are in serious trouble.

Leanna broke off in a run again. She was sure that Kyle would follow her, and almost sure that Emmy would, but the others she didn't know. She had never even seen the two new people, but she hoped they trusted Kyle enough to follow her. Z she thought would do it, but also jen had never truly trusted her, and Robin was new.

So this is what being a queen is like. Never sure if your subjects will follow you, always worried that mutiny may arise, always watching your back to make sure there is no knife there. Speaking of being a queen, I will have to tell Kyle about that. I don't know how he'll react. i hope he doesn't get all weird and spacy like my dad did.

(( time skip the run?))

They had finally reached the safe house. Leanna had been there before, and the smell of earth and pines was the most welcoming thing about this place. No zombies, no sulfur, no burning, just nature. Leanna took a deep breath, reveling in the familiarity of the place. She knew Kyle was doing the same. Nature was irresistible to elves.

Okay, just let me do a quick spell, and that should unlock it. Kyle, can you help me?

Um, Leanna, I have basically lost all my magic. I can only do something simple like make a flower grow.

Kyle looked at the ground sheepishly, and Leanna resisted a very strong urge to smack him. Couldn't he do anything without her? She shook her head.

I'll deal with you later Kyle. I guess I am going to do this myself. Don't be surprised if I pass out again. It is normally a two person spell, but i guess the new queen of elves can handle it.

She had felt that was a good time to drop the whole elf queen bombshell on him. At least she openly admitted it, unlike him. She mumbled a few words, and the door cracked a little, and she didn't even wobble a little.

You guys coming in?

------------------------------------------------------------------

Kyle felt like his world had just exploded. Leanna was queen? When did this happen? Why didn't she tell him. Obviously she had know for at least a couple weeks, if not more. Why hadn't she been honest.

She was probably just waiting for the best opportunity. And i have to admit, this was a pretty good one. I would have passed out or vomited at any other time. Yeah, she knows me so well.

Before entering the door, he turned around to try to see if anyone from his group was there. He thought he saw Ash's teal hair, but that might have just been something else. He shrugged and walked in after Leanna into the darkness.

"Isaiah, we shoot zombies, not people! Are you even listening to me? Isaiah!" It was useless, that boy had a shoot-now-ask-questions-later attitude, and that was exactly how he managed to snag her, only at that time it was more of a kiss-now-ask-the-girl-questions-later type of moment. "Urgh! You have to be the most stubborn, hard-headed, incompetent, unfathomable..." She kept her voice fresh in the boy's mind throughout the whole entire [forced] journey. His eyes narrowed, her 'reasoning' had became too much. He had to do something to shut the tealette up. "Ashley," He stopped short, grabbed the underside of the girl's chin, and pulled her into a subtle kiss. "You talk too much." The sudden moment had caught her off guard, her eyes widened before snapping back to reality. "Is that always your solution for everything that you find annoying?" She huffed. "Only for you." He winked, sticking his tongue out playfully. "Whatever," the tealette said defeated, "just don't get used to it, alright, boy." "Hmn, don't get used to what, loving you? Or other things?" There was a certain emphasis on the word "other" to make his point clear. "Urgh. I can't believe you'd even have that on your mind in the middle of an apocalypse."

"Well I'm a guy, so......" He shrugged, bringing his attention back to the path. "Hey, what's that?"

"Well, I understand that you are a guy, that much is clear, but not all guys think like that and you should really stop being such a -- ne, what's what?" "That." Isaiah motioned the barrel of the gun towards a small house. "That appears to be a house." Ashley said in a matter-of-fact-ly tone. He rolled his eyes. "Yeah, I think I know what a house looks like. I meant why is it here?" "What, house in the woods seem too odd to you?" Asked Ashley, snorting after her question. "Because believe it or not, people actually do live in the woods away from civilization, imagine that!" "Shut up."

"And yeah, I guess we're just going to have to see who lives here." He gave a devilish grin before pulling the revolver from his pocket and running in the direction of the house. "Now, darling, let's introduce ourselves properly this time oka--oh lord, Isaiah Rossner, you stop this instant, you're going to get yourself killed!"
