A message popped up from Maki.
[Do we kill it? Also, I think we should use interface messaging to communicate around wreckages. Stops us from alerting anything hiding.]
It seemed she'd sent Lily a message too, as the girl's head perked up as well.
Looking forward, I found Maki staring straight at me.
Wordlessly, I pulled up my interface before replying to her.
[Good call. Also, no. We aren't hunting at the moment. We are trying to get to the city. We should avoid any fights we aren't forced into.]
She just gave me a nod at that, before resuming the walk.
Her path carved a wide arc around the vehicle, and Lily and I traced closely behind.
We followed the same routine for about thirty minutes. Walking along the path, avoiding wreckages where we could, even going off-road when we occasionally came across a particularly nasty pileup.
