Daniel kept a careful eye on the two children as they move along with him. It wasn't the first forest they had travelled through, but he knew they were almost dead on their feet and didn't want them to trip or stumble. As usual, Daniel was on high alert and tense. Listening and watching for any sigh of danger, almost to the point of paranoia.
He was hoping they would have emerged from the tress into - what he hoped would be - the town of Cascade Locks.. if his map reading skills were any good. All three of them were tired and cold, and Daniel could feel the deep aches radiating through his thin frame, the weight of the large pack he carried and the guitar case slowly getting heavier with each step.
A small sound to his side had the man instinctively reaching out to catch hold of Dylan (or Mensa, as he went by now) before the boy hit the floor.
"Ok?"
The boy nodded and made a show of straightening up to prove so. Daniel nodded and released him and they continued to walk. He quirked a small, tired smile as his daughter moved closer to Dylan.
He hoped they found somewhere to rest soon because they couldn't just stay here, it wasn't safe, and he was absolutely sure he couldn't carry either of them without his legs and back giving out and he knew neither child could walk much further unaided.
