--------------------
They walked to Primm together in silence, their only words the occasional jeers as Charon hunted down the odd gecko.
Cathy played idly with her laser pistol, occasionally trying to shoot at the geckos herself and missing more than she’d have liked. ‘Maybe that’s why I have Charon,’ she thought. ‘Or maybe a bullet to the head is bad for my aim.’
“I hope I can figure this shooting thing out,” she said idly as Charon returned to her side once again. Okay, side wasn’t the most accurate word she could have used as he preferred to walk a good five or so steps behind her, letting her lead.
“Just work on holding your arm steady. You picked it up once,” Charon said from behind her.
She smiled and nodded. “All right. I’ll do that, then. Thank you.”
He just grunted. Cathy took that as a you’re welcome.
By the time nightfall came, Cathy had trekked them halfway around the Mojave. Or at least that’s how Charon felt at the time. After stopping at Primm, then what remained of Nipton, Cathy managed to make it all the way to Ranger Station Charlie before deciding to stop. The NCR soldiers there had been kind enough to let her sleep in one of the currently unoccupied beds.
Charon was no stranger to walking, even before he met the kid for the first time, and she wasn’t either, but a day in the heat with very little rest will take its toll on anyone. He sat down in a small chair while she slept, content to simply rest his legs for the time.
The kid was up before the sun, eager and looking rested. She grabbed her laser pistol again and shot Charon a grin he thought he’d never see again. “We goin’? Come on! Novac can’t be far now! Let’s go!”
“And I shall follow,” he said, nodding and smiling to himself. The kid was looking more and more like her old self. He wondered if she’d ever remember him and hoped that on some subconscious level she still did.
