Doc smiled as he pointed out a heard of deer near the treelines in a clearing. As the sun was now up, they were looking for cover.
"They feed in fields mostly by night when predators aren't as numerous," he explained, "by day, they take to the woods." He then looked out with a set of binoculars. As he handed them to Ashlea to see for herself, he explained, "mostly juveniles and females so we'll leave them be. It's the big buck or the larger animals we seek."
They would continue. Doc cracked the cap on his canteen to keep his fluids in good shape. They made small talk as they traveled. Then, off in the distance a short time later, he saw something. He took back the binoculars to look and began to smirk.
"Zoner resistance fighters," he said quietly, "they probably wouldn't bother us but I have to wonder where they're going to hit."
As of yet, they hadn't seen Doc and Ashlea. Doc handed the binos back to Ashlea and he drew his larger rifle with the scope as he watched them through it.
"They're probably after an LPI station somewhere," he softly said, "although it's a long way from here.....unless they're in hiding after doing so."
