Nita's Rescue - 13

Nate takes a few steps forwards, carefully thinking about the situation. He adpots a wistful expression, putting his hand to his chin. “Those are some high stakes… Doesn’t it make it cooler?” he says. Marissa, concerned, answers back at him. “No… What the hell is wrong with you…”. She hunches over, dreading the situation in front of them. “I think it’d be a good idea to turn back and let those guards take care of it…” she says. Nate, cheerful, tries to pick up her mood, reassuring her: “No, no, no! I can do it! We will bring your friend in no time!”. Marissa reluctantly agrees with Nate. “Fine… I doubt we’re welcome after this guy smacked one on the head….” she says, as she points to Vincent. Feeling a bit smug, Vincent says “Hey, I saved the day”. “Guys, it’s alright! Let’s call it a night!” says Nate, trying to ease the mood a bit. They head over to the tent and get ready to sleep. Nate cheerfully greets goodnight to his friends, but Vincent just tells him to shut up and sleep. “Okay!” Nate agrees, as he falls asleep.
