Endgame
Chapter 4
Dinah was nudged awake by a frantic Jeffrey. "Get up, quick." He said.
"What? What's going on?" She got no reply. "Jeffrey?"
He was looking out the window of the chopper pointing at something.
Dinah tried looking out the window, but all she saw was black. "What is it? I don't see anything."
"Look. There. It's coming for us." He was staring into darkness, "It's coming for us. Run."
She looked around trying to find an escape, but there was no where to go when you were hundreds of feet in the air. "Where do we go? What do we do?"
"Say goodbye." Jeffrey looked into the distance as he handed her a phone. "Call. Say goodbye."
"Goodbye?! I can't say goodbye." Dinah said, but her fingers were already dialing a number. She tried to stop her hands from moving, but they seemed to be operating on their own, "No! I can't say goodbye! I can't say goodbye!"
"Can't say goodbye…." she mumbled over and over again.
All of a sudden the room began to spin and she felt a hand on her arm.
"Dinah….Dinah wake up.." She opened her eyes, where she saw Jeffrey hovering over her with a worried expression on his face. "It was just a dream."
She sighed a breath of relief as she sat up. Her phone was still near her ear, but it was no longer playing the message Shayne had sent her last night.
Dinah took a deep breath and turned off her phone as she whispered, "Just a dream….just a dream.." She held her phone close to her heart as she closed her eyes secretly thanking God she didn't have to say goodbye.
Yet.
Shortly thereafter, the pilot turned around to face Jeffrey and Dinah, "We're getting ready to land."
