92. Rest

Leaving the Sushi place. The group would make their way back to their new base of operations. And Jake pulling up the rear with a dictionary still in his hand.

Arriving at their temporarily base of operations. The group split up to go about their own business. Leaving Vitra and Jake alone.

Walking into their shared room.

"What's on your mind Jake?" She found herself asking. Noticing the subtle queues he had whenever something bothered him. One of them being the obvious twitch of flicking the air.

"I don't like how close we got to biting the dust." Jake would sigh rubbing his face, as the exhaustion he felt made itself seen. "I'm worried that I'm leading everyone to their deaths"

It was something he had the right to worry about. Being the leader of their kind. Having this forced upon him at such a young age. And yet, he was still there with them every step of the way. Which she could tell that the others really did appreciate.
