"Nice too meet ya Zeke, I'm Chase," She grinned down at him, "And that's right, I'm here. You don't have to be alone anymore."
He was all alone? Chase immediately liked the boy, so sweet and brave to be dealing with this by himself. He was a smart one too, coming to the mall for food and supplies, and she told him so.
"Good thinking, coming here where people looking could find you. All by yourself too, that took guts kiddo, I'm impressed. I'm sure Liz and Sparky will be too," She explained and nodded, her voice soothing, "Yep, there's more than just me. So you're really not alone."
