Walking
Foley's pov:
We didn't walk very fast, because of Mary's leg. On top of that, I was lost in my thoughts. What puzzled me was why the driver let us go. He didn't chase us at all. There is something wrong about this. "Do you know where we are?"
"If I knew, Foley, I would have already told you." She rolled her eyes. Huh, and she calls me rude!? "Foley, do you see that?" Mary asked in an excited manner. I did see. There was a figure moving a few yards ahead. "Hello there!" She screamed.
"You have no idea if that person is on our side or not!" I scolded her.
"That person looks helpful." The figure was walking toward us now.
"You can't place your opinion just on looks!" I hissed.
"I just did so ha!"
I shook my head. She is impossible. "We are getting out of here."
"No, we are going to talk to him!"
"Don't take a limp further! I'm warning you!"
She took a limp further and looked back at me with triumph sparkling in her eyes. She is so stubborn. I grabbed her wrist and started walking. She had to hop on one foot just to not fall. If she did fall, she knew I would just drag her anyway.
Mary's pov:
There was only one thing I could think of to get the stranger's attention. "Help!" I screamed. The figure started running and crashed into Foley making them both fall on the ground.
"Are you okay?" The stranger asked.
"I'm fine. Foley didn't want to meet you, and I wanted too. Screaming for help was the only thing I could think of doing to get your attention."
"Um... alright." He glanced at Foley with confusion.
"What's your name?" I asked.
"Rider."
"I love that name! Do you know where we are?"
"Yes, I grew up here."
"We are trying to go to his house to rejoin with our group."
"I can help, but let's go tomorrow. It would be a struggle to go at night with that leg of yours. Follow me to my house." Rider started walking and I started to follow him, but Foley stopped me.
"Are you that gullible?" He asked. "He could be the driver!"
"He could not be the driver! We got to trust him. Hey, Rider, wait! I got to call Dara!"

Dara's pov:
"Hello?" Relief flooded in me when I heard Mary's voice.
"Where are you?"
"I'm not sure, but don't worry we are going to try to get to Foley's house in the morning."
"Alright."
"Okay. I just wanted you to know!"
"Thank you! I was so worried!"
"Everything is turning out alright. Goodbye!"
"Goodbye!"
She hung up and relief flooded in me because my friends were okay.
