[Shouldering the pack takes heartbeats, but for Bucky it's still too long without contact with his broodmate. With everything going on, with the anger and fear twisting his guts, he worries for a moment that Sam has walked away, but then fingers re-tangle in his and the relief chases away some of the static. Not much, but enough that he physically releases a breath he didn't know he was holding.
With their belongings, he sets a course for the desert, for a rock formation they passed on the way to the maze. He provides a mental impression of the location, the way the rocks form a natural shelter. With one more glance back at the camp, he sets out with Sam in tow. Tracks he can cover later, as right now they need to get away- he needs to get away.]
