"I'm not angry at you. I'm angry at this stupid, good for nothing planet!" She remarked, throwing her hands up in the air. Rey huffed and lowered her arms, yanking on her jacket to pull it down as far as she could manage to. She sighed, forcing back yet another sarcastic remark and began to follow after him.
Rey said nothing the entire time that they moved, there was nothing that she wanted to say to him at all. There was nothing that she wanted to remark on. There was little to nothing that caught her interest as they moved, focused on just staying in the marks that Xander made through the forest. One step where he stepped and the next, right where his last step had fallen. She didn't want to make the mistake of stepping off the trail again and ending up up in a tree all over again. Fool her once, shame on you. Fool her twice, then it was just her being stupid.
She swore under her breath when Xander stopped dead in the middle of the trail, yet again. Rey had kept her gaze down, focused on her footsteps more than anything so when she looked up, she was more than a little surprised to see a lake just a few feet away from them. "Why the hell do you keep doing that?" She snapped, glaring at the back of his head. "You keep stopping without so much as a damn word of warning!"
Rey fell silent as he spoke, eyebrows raising in mild surprise. She went to argue that they shouldn't stop, that they needed to continue on. If they wanted to get back to the ship before dark. But before she could even say a thing, Xander had sprawled out on the rocks. She let out a sigh and twisted around, eye catching sight of something that almost seemed to be glowing from a bush on the edge of the clearing. Rey was careful to test each footstep before she put all of her weight down, attention now focused on the bush that she was headed toward.
