Chapter 4
"Barbie. I love you. Why did you leave me behind? Why didn't you come back for me? Don't you love me anymore?" Tears appear in her eyes. Her broken and exchausted face, blood on her right eyebrow and lip. A tear falls down her beautiful face that mesmerized him everytime he looks at her. "You failed me."
He looks into her blue eyes. She blinks and opens her eyes. Eyes he doesn't recognize as hers. Her eyes aren't the most beautful blue color he has ever seen anymore. They are pitch black, black like darkness, black like death.
She turns around without saying one single world and walks away from him, into the shadows of the cave. "Julia… Julia!"He yells with panick present in his voice. He reached for her and falls into the crevice and into the darkness. Falling down and sees her scream in terror. Her eyes, normal and terrified to lose him. That's when everything went black.
He wakes shocked. It was just a nightmare. He lays awake the rest of the night, thinking about her. Hoping she was allright. He couldn't get out of here with all the soldiers and security systems around him. He failed. For the first time he truly failed, he failed her.
It didn't matter what happened to him anymore. He was death anyway.
Just a few hours ago, an hour after he got back from his interigation, on the radio was news. The dome was gone, the town slowely crushed into rubbish. Like a tornado and a huge earthquake did go through the town.
The people who where still inside Chester's Mill can't have survived this disaster. Let them rest in piece."That was what the news reporter said.
When they heard it they couldn't believe it. The dome was gone. Chester's Mill crushed into nothing but rubbish. Nothing is there anymore. Not one living being. No dome. Nothing.
He hopes she is still alive somehow, but he doubt it. He stayed strong for Joe and Norrie, but inside he was already dying. A part of him was gone.
Just 30 hours left before he will be transfered and he doesn't even care about what will happen to him when he get's there. At least he cares about one thing, the kids.

Hunter has found out how to make sure how the town is without power for a few hours. He also hacked this time in the hotel's system, to search for emergency exits and also in which room the others are held in.
"They are being held on the second floor in room 110." Says Hunter to Julia who is making an article, under a false name of course, code name Fox, about new activity and a new plan that Hunter writes in Hounds of Diana code for her on the website.
Hunter told them that they use a special Hounds of Diana code only members know so he makes sure people know what is going on.
Junior, is spreading posters out through the town of Zenith together with Trevor and Jim, yep what a irony, another guy with a name that reminds everyone of Big Jim Rennie.
Trevor searches for the building backgrounds and maps and did found out that a part of the sewerage runs under the hotel and that their is an entrance in the basement for workers to enter the sewerage.
"Their runs a part of the Zenith's sewerage under the Carter's Hotel they are being held. I print a few maps out for the Hounds." The Hounds are old military or security people who left the army and who want to spread and who want to know the truth about the dome.
This day they arranged everything. Three cars, a place to gather, a safe haven after the rescue, and how to get them out of the hands of the military.
Everyone and everything was ready.

Barbie, Joe, Norrie and Sam are eating diner in their room, knowing the transfer will happen in the morning. Everybody is nervous about it. No one knows what will happen when they get there. Maybe it is better not knowing it.
Norrie is scared, but she is brave. She promised her mother that she would be brave.
She misses her mom just as much the others love somebody else. Love is stronger than misery.
Joe talks to Barbie. "Barbie she will be okay. She is alive. She has to be she is the Monarch." "Even the Monarch can die Joe."
"Maybe she got out, including Junior!" Says Norrie positively for the first time in five days.
"If Jim got out I'm gonna shoot myself. I don't want to hear his god complex attitude or sentences." Sam says to no one in particular.
Everybody laughed and that's when the lights turn off. Darkness everywhere.
This is a shorter chapter, the other once will be longer again. Hope you guys like it. :)
