They'd gotten out - or been freed - Sam wasn't sure which one about twenty minutes ago. He'd made his way through the woods with the others until they came to the edge of town by the cemetery and what was left of the church. Sam didn't look for the new grave he knew was there or the rudimentary cross that he and Shannon had made for Anders with two wooden sticks. Instead he'd headed towards the Museum and the last place he'd seen Shannon.

He knew it was a long shot for her to be there. He'd disappeared from her side hours ago and she had been looking for them with Ianto, and Dean if she'd been able to find him, which meant that she was probably long gone. He also knew that he should be headed in the direction of the smoke at the center of town, but his feet kept moving him towards the museum anyway.

Part of him had wished he'd held onto Gambit's journal so that he could ask her where she was. Or that he'd thought about asking one of the others to get a message to her before he started moving away from them. He approached the rubble of the museum, sighing when he didn't see her. He knew he needed to get towards the center of town. He knew he needed to find her and make sure she was okay. Still, he stopped for a moment. Trying to catch his breath from walking there so quickly and trying to figure out where else she might be.

Sam didn't miss the look that flashed across Shannon's face when he apologized and her quickly shook his head. He opened his mouth to explain that his leaving had been completely involuntary but then it was unnecessary because she said it was okay.

He gave her a tired nod and held her tight as she buried her face in his chest. He thought about the inhaler in his pocket and the way his own breath had hitched in his throat at the realization that Shannon would probably need it if she had some kind of panic attack. Especially after being deserted right after finding another friend's body.

He wanted to give it to her, but he didn't want to let her go long enough to do so. He rubbed her back lightly and realized just how much of his inner panic had died down at seeing her whole and alive again. The last couple of days had gotten him so keyed up that he was worried that the time would come when she may not turn up. He let out a deep breath slowly and then pulled back.

"Jack's okay too," he said realizing that he was being selfish and she might want to know about her other friends. "The Doctor too. Gambit seemed to be hurt, but not too badly."
