"Nothing like an invigorating cold to get the mind moving." A young woman sighed to herself, stepping over a log to get back on the path to home. She had ventured it a bit further than usual, with the intent of discovering if she was able to find her way back easily. Worst case, her phone had a signal out here, and even if it didn't the trees weren't all that thick. "But I think I could use a..." She stopped. There was... something, near a tree up ahead. Mary Johanesinon's eyes widened, that... that wasn't a dead body, was it? She pulled her phone out in case it was, and dialed 911 but didn't press send yet. She took a few more steps and found that it was a small boy. Bending down to check a pulse, she found he was alive.
"Oh my god!" She breathed, peeling her coat of and wrapping the boy in it. Mary made the call now and did her best to explain what was going on, and she'd meet the ambulance out by her apartment. "Hang in there little guy, you're gonna be okay." She hefted him over her shoulder and began carrying him out of the woods, it would take her about 10 minutes with her encumbered like this.
