Ben is digging in the underbrush for a nice big stick when he hears Jack's cry of adventure. He immediately runs back to the road side in time to jump back before being run over by the wagon's front wheels.
"Oh jeeze," he thinks as the cart disappears around a stand of trees. He quickly takes in the scene and takes off running after the cart. He doesn't get too far before he reaches down and pulls up the hem of his robes so that he can run faster.
He is resolutely not thinking about how this must look. "Jen's not here, Johnny's not here," he thinks to himself over and over as he runs.
