Things have been… indifferent… I have finally found a tree to sleep by for the night. My throat is dry and my stomach is screaming in hunger, but I think I’ll be fine… for awhile longer that is. Things picked up and were shot down just as quick. I saw a helicopter fly over my head today… I don’t know if that’s a good thing or bad thing. I mean, they might be looking for me desperately and that helicopter might have given away my whole position. That, or it could mean that there’s a city nearby… but even if there is a settlement, who knows if they’ve heard about my escape? Who knows? Maybe their just waiting for me to walk into town and apprehend me once more… I can’t go back there… I can’t… I have realized that I am no longer alone out here… late at night I hear things… wolves howling in the distance… I can hear their blood thirsty cries and only pray they don’t find me while I sleep… I need to get to a safe place before they decide to find me…
