Survive and move [2/?]

OOC: Similar to the book scene but mostly through my own point of view.

Colville National Forest

Abarden trudges through the wet hills and mountain side, Lieutenant Abarden Anthony Askari Stark was in survival mode of escape and survive situation. They have to keep away from being captured by the 'bad guys' that will capture them and interrogate them. Lieutenant Zack Mack was shivering from the cold drizzling rain. "We been moving for hours, it's cold and almost dark, can we rest?" He complained.

Abarden had two comrades, but the first comrade made a stupid mistake and abandon them because refused to follow Abarden's better tactics and plans. He heard he gotten captured from yelling and screaming a mile away from that day.

They were ahead of the bad guy so far. "We have to get over the ridge, we cannot stop, they are likely not far away from us. For all we care, they already found us. Come on we have to make it through." He said harshly. Zack shook his head in exhaustion and grunt. They were both hungry, cold, and tired, they wish they could have a break but they had to keep moving how much Zack wanted too.

"I hate this, it sounded fun but not anymore. This is a bitch, I am freezing my fingers off." He said with a grunt. He look at his comrade with some sympathy. He grabs his hand and pulled him gently, helping him trudge over the steep ridge. Grabbing the branches to help them pull them half way up the ridge. Zack panting with his teeth chattering together, trembling. First sign of hypothermia. He will not allow them to lose. "Get on my back, Zack. Just do what I say, your about to pass out from hypothermia and I will not allow myself to lose a comrade." He said sternly.

Zack looks up with brow furrowing down, trembling. He obeyed and got onto Abarden's back, being careful not to knock any equipment off of him. Abarden winced slightly at the weight but he uses magic to able him some energy and strength, moving up the ridge fast as he can, sweat forming on his head, not good in a cold drizzling rainy day.

He manages to get about 15 miles carrying his comrade and get about 30 miles away from the bad guy after using magic to find their exact location. It seems they have stopped to take a night also. Abarden gently place Zack down who stopped shivering and shaking, who recovered a bit. "W-w-we have lost them for now." He said shaking a little bit. His teeth chattering as he collapsed onto his side on the ground exhausted.

Zack shouted before grabbing him, hugging him and rubbing his arm trying to warm him up. "Stay with me Abarden, were doing good so far." He said in a stern voice.

"I'll be fine, just exhausted and cold." He said laughing tiredly. "Get camp up, no fire because it'll show our exact location. I think they are about 30 miles behind us." He said panting. Zack agreed and helped make camp and got their sleeping bags ready.

They both got into the same tent, so they don't have to clean up in the morning. They both fallen asleep instantly, thank to exhaustion.
