Chapter 15

We walked for miles. My legs felt sore and one of my boots was starting to rub on the back of my heel and I knew when I finally got around to looking at the damage it would be bad. It didn't feel that bad at the moment, but blisters never did until half your skin had rubbed off and it was too late to do anything about it. I saw a sign for Kansas and Josh made a joke about following the yellow brick road, and he started calling me Dorothy. I wanted to throw my red slippers at his face. I found it slightly funny, watching the four of them as they walked in front, Josh, Lane, and Nick were on the road, and Drew was walking along the rough grass along the side of the road nearest to me. I could picture Josh as the Scarecrow that needed a brain because he seemed to think I couldn't look after myself anymore, and that I didn't know what I was doing with a gun and would shoot my foot off or something, and he looked like Scarecrow with his scraggly hair that sat like a mop on top of his head. I didn't know what the problem was, he never used to be this weird, yes he was always protective of me but since they came and rescued us from the lab, Josh now thought I was somehow different and needed to be coddled or some shit like that, but I didn't feel any different and I still knew how to take down a deadbie. I think Lane would be the Cowardly Lion that needed a little courage, I knew the deadbies still frightened him even though he put on a good front. And of course, Drew would be the Tin Man that needs a heart, because I sometimes wondered if he was missing one. He hadn't even said sorry for elbowing me in the face. I burst out laughing when I realized Nick was more like Dorothy than I was, all he needed was a little dog. Drew raised an eyebrow at me as I giggled all by myself but no one else seemed to hear me.

"Alex, you need to keep up. You're on a go slow today." Josh said, dropping back to walk next to me.

"No, I think I got a blister."

"Do you need to stop?"

"In a minute probably."

"There's a gas station up ahead, do you think you can make it there?" Josh pointed to a sign.

"Sure." I pushed through the sudden pain coming from my heel, I didn't want to slow Josh down anymore, he was on supercharge mode, power walking along the road to get to the gas station.

I plodded along behind them and they veered off to the edge and stood hidden in the trees, watching the gas station. I crouched down next to a tree and had a look. There was a small box-shaped building which looked only big enough to hold a cash register and a magazine stand and not much else but there might be something.
