"Merve?", Masika called in a whisper while slowly moving toward the pile of wood. "Sarah sent us to get you, we are…" Masika paused and heard rustling.

Zack moved toward the pile of wood, with an obvious intention to clear it up, but Masika put her hand in the way to stop him.

"Let me do it…", Masika said in a whisper.

"Merve, my name is Masika…", she spoke softly while slowly advancing toward the wood. "We are here to take you to Sarah." Masika wanted to mention Aiden as well, but she remembered Sarah's warning not to bring up any guys, because Merve might be traumatized (depending on what was done to her, and it can't be anything good if she used a beacon to ask for help).

Masika reached to the closest piece of wood and slowly started moving it to the side.
