Andre quickly followed after the miqo'te as she led the way in the direction that he had last seen Clover run. He failed to conceal the occasional, gentle grunt of pain as he hobbled along dizzily but his movements, too, were slowly improving as the debilitating feeling that had once smothered him began to lift.
His eyes briefly travelled up to gaze upon the overcast sky that lay beyond the interlocking branches above before quickly retreating forward again. Nothing had been said by either of the two fighters, but the weather had certainly not been forgotten. The inevitable downpour had yet to commence but the occasional interjection of droplets tapping loudly against the large and springy ferns in the distance was a sore reminder of that time that they did not have.
Andre's eyes remained fixed ahead of himself as they hurried along. Clover was safe, he had made sure of that... and yet, a creeping doubt continued to seep inside of himself, causing his heart to ache with a new pain from the uncertainty and anxiety of never being sure enough for comfort.
