Penny didn't know where she was dragging Zoren, and he also wasn't sure why she was running. So, he asked.
"Why are you so scared?" he asked, trying to match her pace while ensuring his hold on her hand was secure.
Penny huffed as she looked back. "I snuck out."
"Huh?"
"He told me to sleep, but I ran away!" she exclaimed, catching sight of some light from the end of the street behind them. "Shit! He's going to see us!"
A surge of panic swelled in her chest, knowing she had angered Atlas tonight. Looking ahead, her eyes trembled as she searched for a place they could hide. If it was just her, she knew she could hide anywhere. But there were four of them now: Penny, Zoren, Chunchun, and Renny!
She and Chunchun could hide easily, but with a tall man like Zoren and a big cat like Renny, they needed more cover.
