Chapter 14: The Unseen Foe
We got our lunch and started eating. I looked out of the window, but didn't see anything.
I thought for once we would get a break.
I was wrong.
Suddenly, I heard a loud noise. The window next to us shattered, and everyone panicked. Our window was the only one that shattered, so I was almost sure I knew what was happening.
That noise… was that a gunshot?! I thought. Where did they get a gun?!
"What was that?!" Todd yelled.
"I think… someone is shooting at us!" I yelled back.
"A sniper, digadig?" Pauleen suggested.
"I don't know, but all I know is that we need to get out of here!" Rupert shouted. I nodded.
He retreated into his medal and we ran out of the restaurant. Pauleen was pushing the wheelchair, and Todd was running next to us.
"Where are we going to go?!" Todd shouted.
"Well we can't go home." I said. "They knew we were there, so they probably know where we live."
"She's right, digadig!" Pauleen shouted. "Maybe we can get to a helicopter and go to Cranial Isle to talk to Joe."
"Good idea." I said.
Then I heard the noise again. Right next to us, there was a small explosion that looked like a small firework exploding. Red-hot metal shards were sprayed around and a few hit Todd in the leg. They didn't pierce deep enough to do permanent damage, but that still had to hurt.
"Ow! Jeez!" Todd yelled.
"Exploding rounds?! Really?!" I yelled.
We kept running, and we got to the helipad. We got on the helicopter to Cranial Isle.
When we landed, we immediately went to the fossil center. We got up the stairs and hurried into the elevator.
Joe had been right about us being targeted. The real question was why we were being targeted, and who was behind it.
Dina and her friends are being attacked! Who's behind it? Why are they being targeted? Keep reading to find out!
