Eli kept up, staying just a bit behind her.

Ella saw a path that she hadn't gone down before, so she turned onto it.
Ella sped up a little, getting tired.
Ella noticed him sighing. "Sorry," she said.
She didn't say anything, going his pace.
Eli kept up with her. Looking around.
Ella saw something weird ahead, but she couldn't exactly make it out.
Eli wasn't paying too much attention to what was ahead
She sped up by a lot, curious as to what it was. She thought she saw a tent.
Eli rolled his eyes and ran faster, trying to keep up.
Ella stopped when she could see clearly. "What the hell?" She whispered.
Eli stopped when she did and looked ahead. He bit his lip lightly, studying the grouping of tents and a couple buildings.
"You should go check it out first, you're much better at fighting than me, and we might need to fight." She said, nudging him.
"Alright. Thanks." Eli muttered sarcastically.
"Really, I'd get myself killed if I had to fight. You just walk ahead of me." She said.
Eli rolled his eyes and walked toward the camp, grabbing his gun and carrying it in one hand down at his side.
Ella followed him, nothing her lip. She had never discovered civilization with buildings, people she had seen always moved around.
Eli looked around carefully, watching for people or movement. He walked toward one of the buildings.
Ella stayed behind, watching him. She fixed her hair, knowing it didn't really matter, but her mind told her she wanted to look semi decent in front of strangers.
Eli didn't see anyone but listened closely for voices.
Ella's curiosity got the best of her and she ran up to him. "That building looks big," she said softly, pointing, "there may be people there."
"I know. That's why I"m being quiet and listening. You don't want to piss people off right away and scare them. Unless you wanna get shot.' He shrugged.
"Jeez, sorry, Mr. I'm Better Than You. I'll not bother you anymore," she said, crossing her arms and rolling her eyes.
"That's not what I"m saying.." Eli sighed. "I'm just trying to be careful."
"Okay, I got it. I'll stay here and watch you do your thing." She said, shrugging.
"Just walk with me, and be quiet." He mumbled as he neared the building.
She nodded, mimicking locking her lips and throwing away the key. Ella followed him.
Eli looked around, hearing a group of voices.
Ella bit her lip, trying not to say anything.
"They're probably nice," she whispered.
"I know.." He nodded. Eli tried to figure out if the voices were inside or outside.
Ella didn't know what to do, but she was sure she saw someone flash by a random window. She bit her lip.
Eli saw the person in the window and quickly looked to the door.
She followed his gaze, frowning. "Should I go say hi?"
"Just wait. They'll come outside." He mumbled.
"Okay, got your gun ready, in case?" She asked.
Eli nodded, clicking the safety off.
She glanced at him, scared they would have to use the gun.
(Can you be whoever the person is) Eli kept watching around them.
((Yeah, sure.)A man walked out of the door, confused to see the two people standing there. He didn't know whether they were nice or not, but at the sight of the gun, he was ready to run. "Hello," he said cautiously.
"Hello sir." He replied. Eli slipped his gun back behind his back.
Ella didn't say anything, wary. "What brings you here?" Said the man. The civilized camp thing was open to all strangers, as long as they weren't bringing harm to others.
"We were camped down by the river and were exploring around. We saw your settlement and were curious..." Eli explained calmly, arms at his sides, showing he wasn't a threat.
"Alright, well, you two aren't threats, looks like. Here follow me." He said, leading them to the building in the middle of the village, where the ruler, so to speak, of the village was. Ella stayed close to Eli, still nervous.
Eli nodded. He glanced at Ella, following the guy.
