[There's time to get back before someone notices Dave wasn't at practice. Mostly. The higher ups will have spotted a lack of their odd troublemaker but the rest of the kids might not say anything. He's pretty funny and sooo coool. At least, that's what Jade thinks.
She laughs and takes off, the wind in her face and her laughter carrying back to him. Once, she'd thought to be a hunter of Artemis. The offer had been given to her before she'd come to camp. She'd turned it down. She couldn't turn her back on people! Grandpa wouldn't want her to give up such things. She's glad she didn't take the offer.
When they get to the practice area, she slows down to let Dave go first. He has to explain himself, after all.]
