Vera watched the two leave, and she followed them out. An indescribable joy filled her. These were the first two friends she had had in six years. Sure, they weren't Mudokons, but friends are friends. She was so happy that she didn't notice the sound of multiple Slig's pants, besides Maverick's. Suddenly, several Sligs ran out from the shadows. Vera managed to pull out a spear and kill one, but she knew that she couldn't kill them all, or escape. She would need help.
