"Besides, that's not the point Fi, we're out of control and you know it" "That's exactly the point and I don't care if I'm out of control, just look what their doing" Fi's mind voice was indignant. Ellie looked again at the small dark figures and small fires that had been their home. "How can you think of control when they're doing that to our h-home" a tear ran down her cheek. Ellie reached into her sister's mind "Fi, I know it's hard but we've just got to be strong, if we carry on like this we'll scorch someone, we'll end up being a danger to anyone we're around" Fi's only response was to cry harder. Ellie could see the pain in her face. She screwed her eyes shut but saw only her father's shrug, and her Mother walking away. She felt a knot in her throat and opened them wide but it was too late. Tears spilled over and she hugged Fi as rain fell all around. After a while Fi's voice in her mind made her jump. "El, please don't cry, don't, we've got to move, they'll be coming up here soon." She dried her eyes and lifted her pack with a sigh, drawing a deep shaky breath. "okay, lets go then" They walked along a rocky path, dust rising under their feet. They carried on till midday when Fi sat down abruptly. Ellie lay down on the grass next to her and for a long time neither of them moved. Ellie fell asleep and Fi just sat. Ellie was woken by Fi shaking her. She was holding bread and water which Ellie gulped down pulling a face - it was warm and tasted of soap. They were on some grass next to the costal path and below them the water sparkled and glinted.
