Wanda stood beside the Jeep and let out a sigh of relief. Ian had kept a tight hold on her until a ten minutes after he fell asleep. She had been late for that. Apologizing over and over to the two as they walked to the end of the entrance and looked out. Lo and behold the Seekers wher eno where to be in sight. They snuck along the darkest edges to the Jeep.
"We should go to the van so we won't make as much noise." She advised, gulping air into her lungs. Reaching into the back of the Jeep she grabbed a water bottle and downed it. It was so much easier to run in Melanie's body then Pet's.
Wanda pushed her blonde from her eyes and stared at Mel and Jared, before looking into the far off distant for any signs of Seekers doubling back.

Jared stopped at the Jeep and leaned against it's side. His breath coming in light pants as he grabbed the water bottle. He stuck at the back in case the Seekers caught whiff of them and caught the person at the back. Which would have been Wanda. He agreed with Wanda and grabbed a backpack lodged under a seat and filled it with three water bottles and a flash light. "We better get there within a half hour before the next set of Seekers come in. So sorry Wanda." He placed the back pack on the ground and picked Wanda up, throwing her over his shoulder. "Mel, can you carry the pack?" Jared asked picking up the backpack and easing the Jeep door shut so it made a quite click.

Wanda finished her bottle and tossed it back into the Jeep and looked up at the mountain line for any streaks of lights. She heard Jared explain that they where going to have to make it within the next half-hour to the car so they could get onto the highway safely. Turning around to agree she was lifted off her feet and felt the impact of a shoulder onto her stomach making her let out a quiet yelp. She started squirming, explaining that she could keep up, but Jared cut her off and started talking to Mel. With a sigh she relaxed with a unimpressed expression on her face.

Jared chuckled and shrugged. "Okay, enough joking around. Let's go." He said making sure that Wanda was securly on his shoulder before hooking his arm around her waist so she stayed there. He started in a fast jog before sprinting, counting on Mel to follow. His footfalls where muffled as he ducked towards the shrubs. His eyes looking towards the darker places where the moon didn't hit.
When he reached the van he opened the back and placed Wanda onto the ground. He quickly ushered Wanda into the Van before climbing in himself. Grabbing a knife and flashlight before going back out to put the tarps on the tires.

Wanda sighed at the jokes being tossed at her. Soon however they- meaning Mel and Jared- started running. Bringing her arms up so they where crossed under her chin so it stopped smacking against Jared's back as he ran. Her eyes glancing into the forest, not hoping to find a Soul staring back at her. When they reached the van Jared palced her onto the ground before shooing her into the Van. Bending her head a bit she walked to the front of the van and sat down in the drivers. Pulling the keys out of her pocket and sticking them into the ignition.
"Jared, you and Mel should stay under the blankets and hide behind the seats until we're away from the mountain." She advised, her hand resting on the wheel and one on the key ignition.

  Mel followed right behind Jared when he began jogging away, speeding up so she reached him easily an kept pace. She reveled in the feel of her feet hitting the ground; her legs tensing and releasing; her arms pumping; the wind blowing in her face, or, rather, her running into the wind. All too soon they reached the van.
Mel swung her arms in a long circle, while Wanda climbed into the driver’s seat. For some reason, her tiny figure, just able to see over the dash board, seemed especially funny to Mel. Holding her hand over her mouth to keep from laughing, she noted that the lack of sleep three nights in a row had seriously taken a toll on her. She hadn’t been able to take a nap that afternoon—Jeb needed her for the chores. Now she was just a little slap happy. “Jared, you and Mel should stay under the blankets and hide behind the seats until we're away from the mountain.” Mel nodded. Jared had the tarps covered, so there was no reason for her to delay longer. “Hooray” she said sarcastically, hopping into the back seat of the van. Melanie grabbed the blanket at her feet and peeked out the door to the back of the van. with a grin. “Come on, Jared.”

Jared sighed and finished putting on the tarps and climbed in. He shut the door and nodded at Wanda. "Remeber Wanda. Go straight to San Diego unless you're stopped, or you get tired. Then Mel or I will take the wheel." He said before slidding into place beside Mel and looking at her pointedly. "You need sleep." He said patting beside him.

Twisting the key the engine purred to life. She backed up and twisted the wheel towards the road and pulled off. The car went slowly at first before pulling up to speed. She guided it down the desert until she reached the edge of the highway, she backed it up so it was hidden in the bushes. Opening the door she looked around, there was a beam of light pointing towards the oppisite direction of the van. She crouched and leaned against the van door. Quietly taking off the tarp of the wheel.
When she looked around the van. A Seeker was standing just a few feet away from the bushes where the van hide. "Any sign of humans on you're side?" The Seeker asked into a black radio. A static reply before the Seeker replied."You found some?....Their dead? How long?...Oh then these aren't the one's where looking for."
