Geo has gotten distracted by Meg’s singing, bringing him to turn his head away from Gwen and focus on what Meg was doing. She was quite a ways away, so he couldn’t exactly tell what she was doing, but he was still interested. He listened to the strums of her guitar, and the words coming out of her mouth. He finally realized that he was still in a conversation and turned his focus back to Gwen. Meg didn’t really seem like the person who wanted to talk to anyone else on the trip, so he decided not to interact with her until she did.

Gwen smiles, "I can agree with your answer." She pauses when he asks the next question. She takes a moment to think of a response. How much should she reveal? "I suppose I'm just looking to escape. I'm tired of the life back there" she tries to keep her tone light but it fails. There is anger in her voice, but also a flicker of disappointed. Sure, she didn't like her family, but she did pity them. They didn't mean to hurt her, they were just blind to what could be. "It doesn't matter, the road ahead is much greater. I feel much more free already... I'm Gwen by the way"
...
"That sounds amazing! Far better than my life story" Hayes replies with a chuckle. "Enough of that though. My past is a scar I refuse to pick at" he turns his head, as if trying to look at Derek better. "You taught your teachers right? Could you-" he pauses and his cheeks flush in embarrassment. "Could you perhaps teach ne how to read and write? It's always been a dream of mine."

Sage poked her head from the side of the hover wagon she was on and watched Gwen with wide dark eyes. Willow gently ushred her sister inside with a slight chuckle.

Geo slowly nods, understanding what she was trying to say. “Ah... I see... Name’s Geo, pleasure to be at your acquaintance!” He held his hand out to her, a large and goofy smile was on his face. On his travels he had met a few people like her. They all had parents that forced their children to be the image of a perfect son or daughter, all the suits and dresses and “proper manners”... He was lucky enough to be raised by an understanding family that didn’t force him into things. His father was lenient on whether or not Geo wanted to go to the military, but he knew others weren’t that lucky. The genuineness of his smile faded away as the thought saddened him, but he managed the keep the smile.

"A pleasure" Gwen agrees as she shakes his hand. An awkward silence follows. At least, it's awkward for Gwen. She fights to think of something to talk about, but she can't really think of anything. So she simply looks around the horizon. It was a beautiful sight, Meg's singing helped make the view look that much better. It reminded her of the good days when her father was still alive. She was very close with him, but some of her most fond memories were the simplest. There would be nights when they would silently sit on the porch and listen to the radio while watching the sun slowly sink below the horizon. Where are you dad? Gwen wonders. She had always assumed he was dead, but she hoped otherwise. All she could remember was that one time she came home from church with her grandmother only to find her mother crying in the bedroom and clutching the little cap her father always wore

Luke is drawing on a piece of paper. This was his favorite thing to do. His wagon was in front of Willow’s, who was with 3 other people if he actually decided to talk. He had tossed other drawings aside next to him. He thought of himself as not very good at it, but he was actually like a pro artist.

Derek's smile never left his face, even as he spoke. "I'd love to. It's not every day I get to introduce somebody to the art." He pickled up the small stack of papers on his lap, flipping through them until he found a slightly older looking page, more wrinkled and folded than the others. Tugging it from the stack, he held it out for Hayes to take. "The alphabet. If we stop for the night I can teach you a bit more. We'll have something to write on then." He nodded to the dirt beneath them, the horse's hooves churning up a bit of dust with every step.

"Thank you so much, I really appreciate this" Hayes tells Derek with almost child-like excitement. After accepting the paper he takes a peek at it. To him, it looks like random symbols. How was it possible that these shapes could turn into words, and those words turn into understandable phrases and sentences? His confusion is visible on his face. Suddenly he is forced to grab the reigns and pull back to stop his horses. Up ahead, all of the wagons were stopping. "What's going on?" Hayes asks outloud, even though Derek most likely won't know the answer.
...
Gwen's horses stop before Gwen can even make a jump for the reigns. She stands up so that she can see over the other wagons better. "What's the hold up!?" She calls

Derek stood up, frowning and shifting to the edge of the wagon. Leaning out, he can almost see the front of the caravan, almost. Looking at the ground, he jumps down and starts walking towards the front of the chain of wagons, searching for the disturbance that forced the lot of them to stop. There was shouting, yelling, and a clear sense of annoyance hovering over the entire place.

*Reyna got out of her wagon and looked around. She slowly made her way to the front of the caravan and saw Rooster's horse in the front of the group. He surveyed the landscape as he held his gun in his hand. But after a few minutes, he turned around and motioned for everyone to get moving again.* LETS GET MOVING! *The wagon's slowly began to move again and Reyna made her way back to her wagon and sat down. She looked out from the back of the wagon and in the distance she could see something. It was too far away to tell what it was, but it was out there. She then spoke aloud* I've got a bad feeling about this.

..........

*One week later, most people of the caravan were becoming irritable of the long journey ahead. But the children didn't care, all day long they played with eachother and ran through the caravan. Reyna envied them. How free they were. How trapped she felt.*

Geo had kinda wished he had brought his own supplies on this journey. A week had passed and he felt terribly guilty about taking food and other things from other people on the ride. Well, this was kinda the only option. Even if he managed to get her all the supplies he would need, he wouldn’t be able to haul them all the way here.

Luke was almost getting bored of drawing. He had a huge stack of papers of things he had seen, and the drawings were actually pretty good, but not in Luke’s opinion. He just couldn’t find the right thing to draw. He looked throughout the wagons. He sighs, then starts tossing up a ball and then catching it. He still had a little bit of food and water left. When would they get there? Was he actually wanting attention? He shakes off the feeling and sighs again, continuing bouncing the ball.

Reyna, get back from there, you dont want to catch boselwine flu from those hooligans out there. *Reyna looked back at her mother and sorrowfully nodded* Mother, why can't I just go out and play with the other children? I mean we are gonna be- *Reyna was interrupted by her mother* Reyna, remember your grammar. It's not *Reyna's mother mocked and immatated Reyna's voice as she said one word* 'gonna', its 'going to'. Now, start that sentence over[/i] *Reyna huffed before continuing* We are going to be traveling for most of the year, and I'm going to be dreadfully lonely if I can't talk to someone. *Reyna's mother huffed and looked annoyed as she stitched something up* We've discussed this, Reyna, those children out there are riddled with diseases that neither I nor you want to deal with. Especially before we meet Mr. Charles in Ory Gon. *Reyna began to protest* And that's another thing, mother, I dont want to marry that man. He's so much older than me and- *Reyna's mother interrupted her* We've discussed this, Reyna. Mr. Charles is a very wealthy man and he promised he would take care of you to the best of his ability. *Reyna's mother finished stitching and looked up at Reyna. She smiled and brushed hair out of Reyna's eyes* This isn't just about you, sweetheart. Its about our family. *Reyna's mother's smile faded away and she yawned before leaning back to take a nap*

Luke had overheard the conversation and sighed. Why couldn’t people be understanding? He kept drawing. His wagon was near Reyna’s and her mom’s. One of Luke’s drawings flies from the wind and landed somewhere near Reyna. It was a picture of lots of wagons along a dirt road, the sun shining and light strokes of wind. He thought it was horrible so he didn’t bother to retrieve it. He continues drawing another picture as his wagon kept going. He got up to go and feed the animals that were pulling his wagon.

Gwen didn't really mind sharing her resources with Geo. She purposely bought extra supplies for that reason. Although she would need to hunt whenever she was able to; at this rate, they would be out of resources by the time they were three quarters of the way there. Gwen didn't want to risk that. Like Luke, Gwen had also overheard the conversation. She had almost interrupted, but she didn't want to irritate Reyna's mother even more. Instead she offers Reyna a knowing smile, she doesn't really mind if Reyna managed to catch it or not. She was much more fortunate than Reyna. Her father had been around for the first eight years of her life, and he had put a lot of effort into making her who she was. He didn't want her to turn out like her older sisters, who were with men nearly twice their age. It was his influence that made Gwen and her mother despise eachother. But at the end, she had come out victorious. She leans forward, sneaking a look into Reyna's wagon to make sure nobody could overhear her. "Keep fighting, it'll get better" she whispers to the younger girl.

So many people on this trip had the unfortunate fate that Reyna had, it was unbearable. He didn’t understand why parents wanted their children to marry others, forcing them into it. Geo’s family wasn’t all that wealthy, nor did they have useful jobs, making it near impossible for either of his parents to take offers. Well, that life had long passed, nothing to worry about. He sadly stared at Reyna and her mother before turning his head to look at Gwen and the supplies from the wagon. If they were sensible enough to make a short stop in the future, they would have to get supplies then. Geo was pretty good at hunting and things like that, so he wasn’t worried that they would have trouble.

*Reyna nodded and leaned back. About 5 minutes later, she looked over to her mother and saw she was dead asleep. She looked back out of the opening of the wagon and saw children playing. She looked at her mother again, then outside. And then back at her mother, then outside. She smiled and jumped out of the wagon and ran to the other kids.*

Luke has finished another drawing. He gets frustrated and crumples it up and throws it o it of the wagon. It was a picture of him as a little kid laughing and playing. He sighs. He collects the papers that he didn’t crumple up and then decides to take a nap so he lays down and starts sleeping, breathing in deep and exhaling deeply as well. He had accidentally left out a few papers face up though so they were noticeable.

Willow was sleeping with her sister Sage and her and Mo's lover Rosemary, Mo was driving her hoverwagon which made it easier with the half tamed steeds. However, young children needed little sleep to rechage themselves with new energy it seemed and so as the other two teens slept Sage got up on her cubby tiny toddler legs and wobbled over to Reyna on somewhat unsteady legs, a small bump made the toddler land in Reyna's lap, making Sage giggle.

Mo stole a glance at Sage, seeing her happy made Mo smile a bit. She wasn't technically hurting anyone, the toddler was just a very curious child.
