Caleb felt a hand grab his shoulder at the same time he heard Kai's voice, "We have to go, now!"
As the men continued their steady approach, Caleb could only stare at his wife's body, stunned into inaction.
"Goddammit man! There's nothing you can do for her now, we need to go!" screamed Kai as he pulled Caleb away from the relentlessly advancing men.
The sudden scream jolted Caleb out of his grief induced daze and he finally realized the imminent danger he was in.
Kai sprinted off towards the nearby jungle, his precious satchel strapped firmly to his back. Caleb quickly followed him, the heavy footfalls of their pursuers armored boots thumping into the earth behind him.
The instant they hit the tree-line, Kai slowed, clearly unsure of where to proceed from here. Caleb took the lead, running off in a direction he knew led to a place they could hide. Realizing Caleb would know the terrain best, Kai now followed him without question.
