We start walking into the forest, I start thinking if it was a bad idea. I could imagine my grandma, crying for me and looking around for me all over. I looked at Flower, I could tell she felt the same way. Flower suddenly stopped walking, I looked over my shoulder, "What's wrong?" I ask. Flower looks like she might burst out crying. "I want to go home! I want to go to my pop and mamma and Crow and snuggle up in a blanket!" she cried. She started hiccuping and I saw tears fall down her face. I come up to her and hug her, her tears were making my clothes wet but I didn't care. After Flower stopped we walked for at least 60 miles. My legs hurt, we were on the field mow, but the woods were close by. "Gather sticks and stones, we can make a fire,'' I take off my bag and open it, I forgot I packed 2 sleeping bags and 2 pillows! The pillows were small, but they fit right in. "Here," I say as I give Flower a sleeping bag and pillow. "Thanks," Flower said, I could see the thankfulness glowing in her eyes. She meant it. My belly grumbled, "Have any food?" I ask. Flower shrugs, "Maybe, I'll check, you should check too!" She says. I nod as I go look inside the duffel bag, I dug to the bottom and found a big bag of candy! And a chocolate cake, some fruit, and some other food. I gasp, "look!" Flower comes up to me, "that's the bag your grandma used to shop! She forgot to take out the chocolate cake and candy I suppose," she says. I got out some candy and gave it to Flower, "Eat, maybe I can hunt too," I look over at some meat in a package, "or not... I'll warm up the food using the fire," I say. Flower nods as she eats the candy, I help myself to some. Flower licked her lips, "Good thing you got that bag!"  I shrug, but
I got pretty lucky. I get my sleeping bag ready after we eat some meat. "Good night," Flower says. "Good night," I reply as I drift off to sleep.
