Naomi looked over at the man. The pair hadn't given her their names. No matter. She didn't want to know them. She continued poking at the fire. They were just wandering, going no where in particular. They had simply wandered North. Naomi always felt like she was searching for something, though she couldn't say what. Maybe she felt like one day she'd run into her fiance again, that his death would have been a cruel joke, that he'd never died, and that it hadn't been because she were weak.
"We were looking, for something," she finally said. After a moment someone appeared out of the bushes. Zeus heard the small girl before she had arrived and was standing in a protective stance beside Naomi now, towering above her in his huge size. Then the girl was shrieking. It was an awful sound. Even Zeus put his ears down.
When they could hear again, Zeus turned his head, picking up on another sound nearby. A low growl erupted from his throat. They were being watched, and he didn't like it. "Someone else is here," Naomi said to the group.
