Who: Imogene and Lucas
Where: Woods outside of town
When: Noon-ish
Imogene had turned away from the main road a little while ago. No one had picked her up in over a week, anyway, so she figured it was about time to give her thumb a rest. Besides, she’d spotted what she took to be a little trail going off into the woods, more or less the direction she was heading, and it was always better to be surrounded by more trees rather than fewer, in her opinion.
But she was beginning to regret her choice. The ‘trail’ had narrowed, and by now the understory was so overgrown that it must have vanished all together. Of course it was possible she might have taken a wrong turn somewhere along the way, but she was confident enough in her navigational skills that the very idea seemed absurd. It was the trail’s fault entirely, and she paused to scowl at the forest floor, head tilted and nostrils flaring slightly as she tried to puzzle out her next move.
