Emberflame Ridge just live your goddamn life

A storm was coming. Sadey could feel it. She studied the backs of the males in front of her, of the sweet hearted Lonesome and the crazy eyed marston. Then at the wind as it howled through the trees and ruffled the branches and the weather. This would be perfect weather for say someone that kept the gang down, to get lost. She could always find them again. The question however, remained. 

Would Colt be able to handle another loss? She knew that she wasn't of the type of relationship he and Red had, but there was loyalty there, and a bit of a type of friendship. And she didn't wonder if it would cause him more pain if she disappeared into the howling tempest that was sure to come. Reno he'd be alright, he always was. Marston, well hewouldn't care one whit. 

Sadey could hunt slowly, she knew how to fish. It wasn't that she couldn't survive on her own, even with pain. But she realized suddenly like a shot in the dark, that for the first time in a long time. She didn't want to be alone, but if it meant the gang could get to somewhere safer without her holding em back well then wasn't it worth it. 

Decision made, she pushed herself into moving. She would try and add a little pep in her step and then when the storm got to bad, she just disappear into it. And they would blame the storm.
