Ruins pt. 3

“Over here!” 

One of the men is screaming, waving his hands over his head. 

I rush to him, part of me excited at what he could have found. 
The other part of me was dreading what he had discovered. 

Dread was my baseline emotion. 

As I draw closer I can see that his eyes are wide, panicked. 

The excitement fades.
The dread grows. 
My pace quickens. 

I already know what he has found.  I can sense it in the way he looks at me, at the others. 

Are numbers are growing fewer.
