Running
Chapter 1
Cammie POV:
I was running. Running as fast as my 7 year old legs could carry me. I was running away from them. Finally. I had been there since I was 4, and I had finally escaped.
I was still running through the woods when I heard the explosion. I looked back just in time to see the forest explode into flames. There was so much smoke; it was making it hard for me to breathe. I saw a clearing and ran with all the energy I had left. When I got there I was surprised to see a small cottage there, but I all I could think was, I hope someone will find me.
Still running toward the house, I tripped over a rock and thought, what a great way for a spy to die, and then I blacked out.
Grant POV:
I was at the cave again as usual, practicing my moves. Joe had shown me a new one this morning and I was trying to get it right. I just couldn't land it right. The move was a forbidden move but I still wanted to get it right even if I couldn't use it. It was getting close to lunch time so I was going to go home soon, but when I left the cave the entire forest was on fire.
I started running for the safe house, I know Joe wouldn't leave without me; he was all I had left. I was almost there when I tripped over something. I looked back and saw that it was a person. I looked closer and saw that it was a girl who looked about my age. I couldn't just leave her here and she was unconscious so picked her up and ran into the safe house. Joe was in the garage getting the helicopter ready to go when I ran in.
"Joe I found a girl!" I yelled. He looked at me like I was crazy, but he told me to put her in the copter. I did and then jumped in next to him and we left. I looked back just in time to see the house I had always lived in be engulfed in flames.
