After not really seeing anything he turned his gaze back upon the girl.
For the first time, he noticed the red marks on her back and moved some of the torn shirt out of the way.
He gasped a little at the bad cuts and welts on her back, 'This might have something to do with it...' He thought.

Jackie went back to the girl's parents. "Did you get her?" The father looked worried. "No" Jackie answered coldly. "She's got that man with him. I need more cash for this, I was only counting on an orphan girl covered in bruises and exousted."
Vi's father sighed and said "Here, take this" he handed her their savings. "Now, get my daughter home!"
Jackie grinned and walked off.
Vi groaned. Everything was dark...so dark...where was she? Vi tried to open her eyes, but it hurt. She groaned again.

When Vi would awake, it would be by a roaring fire, in the middle of a temporarily fenced off area, holding four or five tents, Vex was near her, talking to another man by the fire, who was polishing a crossbow, and working of arrows.

Vi, the effort sending searing pain through her head, opened her eyes. She looked around slowly, her vision was still blurred, but she was thirsty and hungry. That's what being unconcios doess to someone, after all . Violet let her eyes close, sinding relief everywhere, and moaned again. She didn't expect anyone to come, the probably would'nt even hear her.

Vex noticed that she was waking up, and heard her moan. He brushed some hair out of her face, and bent over her, blocking the harsh sunlight.
"How are you feeling?" He asked her softly.

"My...head..." Vi stumbled over the words. "An'...thirsty...hungry..."
She was frightened of this man, but what could she do? If he was anything like her father then he'd find out what was wrong, fix it, then take off.
Jackie frowned at the men. Oh well, she knew that the family didn't have anything else to give to her. Jackie went back downhill a ways, then set camp 'till night.

"Here." Vex offered the girl a drink from the small water skin he was carrying.

Vi felt the water at her lips and drank it gratefully. She still didn't like opening her eyes to the glare of the sun.

"So what were you running from?" He asked the girl, seeing her squinting, and moving to block the sun.

Vi sighed. The man would probably beat it out of her if she didn't say it. "Mama, was ... being mean"

"Did she hurt you?" He asked, referring to the cuts he had seen on her back.

" A bit - I mean maybe."
The sun was setting.
Jackie climbed back up to the camp as the sun went down.

Bic: "So, do you have anyone you can stay with?" Vex asked.
