֍ Inno: Alright. This is as far as we go.
When the motorhome stops in the middle of the road it's still the evening. The clouds got heavier and the breeze sharper, but golden light still bathes the endless fields, casting humble shadows in the greenery.
/ 人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼: Ellie says: 'Why are we stopping? The enemy is still hunting us."
֍ Inno: Take whatever fits your arms and follow me. They'll try to track down the car. It's no longer safe.
֍ Sammie: No no NO what now?!
֍ Fubuka: But, Tea-
֍ Inno: No time! They aren't the only ones after us. Move those pretty little butts!
In a frantic rush, Fubuka takes out the popcorn maker from its box and puts all the canned food and rations inside instead, while Sammie panics around picking up electronics. When they come out, Inno has a big plastic bag on one hand and a suitcase on the other, while Ellie has but a single thing on her: her big octopus plushie, too big for her little body.
֍ Fubuka: Ellie!
֍ Inno: No, no, Ellie, soldier, my main gal, we /don't/ need that. We'll get back our van later. Kyubey.

֍ Ellie: Ɏɷ!!
/ 人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼: Ellie says: No.
֍ Fubuka: We've got no time for this.
Fubuka jumps at Ellie, but finds herself struggling to take the octopus from her.
֍ Fubuka: Let... go! Grab something... more… useful!
֍ Ellie: Ɏɷɷɷɷ!!
֍ Inno: Wait wait, just let her have-
They both fall on their butts- right as the last stretch on leash is finally unchained from Ellie’s arm-
/ 人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼: Ellie says: Kyu!
-and the strange alien cat dives headfirst into the forest, dragging it around like a dead steel snake.
…
֍ Inno: Well. Crap.
