And yours?" He glanced from place to place, trying to keep track of each possible place for an ambush he passed as the two men forged deeper into the woods. And do we have a plan? He considered voicing the thought out loud, but the plan was already clear and simple: pursue and eliminate... and failing that, retreat.
