As Howk had rejoined Ashi she looked around and it appeared that the two had become separated from their group. She tugged Ashi along with her and they continued to search, hoping to find Kuni and Gaius. As they walked her eats swiveled and she could have sworn she heard Kuni... But then she heard the whistle and her head jerked to the side. Something had gone wrong...
Ashi was right behind Howl as they proceeded forward. As much as he hated the bunker he wasn't sure he wanted to be out there anymore. He saw Kuni's bag on the ground though but no Kuni... And when the whistle blew he froze. Just like a deer in the headlights. He grabbed Kuni's bad that still had a familiar in it, he couldn't leave the critter out here... It was then that Howl grabbed him and pulled him roughly back the way they had come.Howls gripped Ashi's arm tightly and she pulled him, she didn't care if she was dragging him. She was faster then he was, and thankfully her athletic nature was about to come in handy. She hated the idea of leaving Kuni behind. But she heard his shout and she wasn't about to let his sacrifice go to waste. But what happened to Gaius?
The two reached the bunker.
