Sunni had no idea where Buddi was going. Truthfully, the Barbic didn't know either. Yet. Just... out. Anywhere but here, now. Sunni was worried that Cubbi might tell. She walked faster. Even passed Buddi up at a jog just to escape any possible voices calling them to return. Buddi grinned, chased after her. Her smile joined his and they raced on.
Out of breath and nearly to a stand of the few trees growing in the barren area, the two laughed and plopped onto the ground.
"Geez, we could get into so much trouble for doing this." Buddi chuckled, for at the moment it was funny.
"Yeah, I know. Who cares right now. I wanna DO something, just like Cubbi. Just _without_ Cubbi. That isn't wrong, is it?"
"I don't think so. Everyone needs a little time away from everyone else."
"Yeah... C'mon. I'll bet there's something new right over that ridge! Race ya!" Sunni shot up without warning and took off, startling him.
Not about to let Sunni win, and willing to ditch responsibility just for a little while, Buddi determinedly chased on.
