Submitted to Contest #279

Warning for language and firearms. Finn stepped out of his car, adjusting his backpack. He had double checked that it was filled with all the essentials he’d need for his trip: water, food, a tent, sleeping bag, a lighter, a small portable charger, and a flashlight.

Candy and John sat on opposite ends of the couch with their heads propped up on their hands watching TV.
