Thread: Though They Walk Through The Valley Of The Shadow Of Death (Quix & Aurelia)

Eve had stared as if trying to burn the image of the two in her mind for any foreseeable future. There could be no promises made now, not with the war they were about to go reign upon an unknowing being. All that was left at that moment was hope and it was a dangerous thing for her to have, but she had it. Her smile firm now, no wavering just as she didn't have any in her mind of what she was about to go do with her brother. So they turned to take their leave, her attention caught by the key in her face from her brother with that grin as if about to just go on a simple road trip. His humor and light heartedness always willing to try and make her happy. If I recall, I passed my drivers test the first time, unlike someone! she called out, snatching at the key as they moved outside the building, missing it narrowly while taking a deep breath of the fresh and wet air. Not sure if it would taste quite the same as before when all was said and done. Making their way to the truck, she glanced over at her brothers mention of plans and gave a nod. Everything was in motion now. If they stopped, Eve feared they may actually turn back, so she would be hard pressed to keep her brother in the forward direction right along with her. Step after step in front of the other as they loaded the bags of clothes behind the benched seat of the pickup. Eve letting her brother drive for the time being, still not sure her nerves were ready despite how well she seemed to be holding it all together. The rumble of the truck under her feet sending a chill through her legs and up her spine as she gave one last longing look to the building before them while the sun started peaking over the tree line in the distance. And much like ghosts, she glanced at her brother and gave an assured nod for him to get them started into this new unknown. Leaning over to see the tank was a little less then half, her thoughts contemplated on just what Jerry had advised in terms of switching licences plates. He seemed well informed enough in what could help them keep distance and in the over all, win their battle. A thought that perhaps their caretakers were warrior angels in their own ways. Having raised up and defeated their own god to make paths for the life they wanted to live. And Eve had wondered just what they must have seen to be so forgiving in nature of what Adam and Eve had yet to spill on their own terms. No one will see us coming. And we'll drive until we're almost on empty so we aren't as close to here before I switch licenses plates with someone. she added easily. More and more sins piled and yet she felt lighter then she ever had. A looming tale that should have looked like darkness was only bringing light just as the sun before them. Heavens were about to spill blood and Eve took a hand from her brothers driving to grasp it in her own as she had found the middle seat of the truck beside him. The smile on her face something so bright and innocent for all the evil ideas that were flowing through her mind. Their father had wanted to be cruel and he would be getting everything in full return, she would make sure of that. Her hand squeezed her brothers hand a bit unconsciously as thoughts kept rolling, finally speaking a bit more wondrous. Do you think this will be difficult? The question was obvious, or more so the answer, but it felt like she needed to hear it either way. She had been so amped that morning, so ready in her resolve and finally the adrenaline was catching up to it's limit. Her eyes looking over at Adam with a curious look. We need to make a list, I don't want to harm anyone we don't have to. Only those... those who get in the way, or have hurt us. We don't need to be like him . I don't want to.
