870 Silent steps

Silver, Leo and Nate had been following Ham for a while now, the truth was when Quinn had last called, Nate wasn't completely truthful about the situation they were in. It was true that Ham had recognised the way he had come from and they were heading towards the direction, but the reason they were slow was mainly due to the frequent breaks Ham would take.

"Do you even care about your master at all!" Nate loudly complained. "This is the fifth time we've stopped because of you!"

The group was waiting by a large rock along a river. Ham laid on top of it lying on his back, with his belly pointing upward.

"Of course I do!" Ham shouted back. "But do you want me to tire out like I did before? And if I pass out, what happens then, then we have no way of finding them."
