He touched his jaws and turned to look at her.
"Let's get going"' he mumbled and started walking away.

One of them asked as he blocked her way.The lines around her eyes were so red as she glared hard at the door."I need to see Zack" she stated bluntly.If the boys were people that knew her, they'd have known her voice was sounding deadlier than it used to."You mean...Master Zack?"
