"Quick lower the chopper" Selene hopped out of the front into the back as Julian lowered the chopper further to the ground. Kahn took out his sniper rifle and began picking off each attacker on Kain. As soon as all three fell to the ground Selene, Duncan and Marcus leapt out of the chopper to the short distance of the ground
Lilly's face brightened up seeing her father
"Dad!"
"Lilly!" Duncan pulled her up into his arms
"I was so worried about ye" he hugged her tight for a moment
"I don't know where mum is"
"Its alright we'll find her come on lets get ya out of here"
"Wait" Lilly stopped him from pulling her to the chopper
"What about them, he helped me and she knows too much" Lilly pointed to the cop and mute.
"Alight" Duncan pulled the cop over his shoulder
"Hey where are you taking me"
"To safety don't complain" Duncan yelled over the loud roaring of the chopper. He carried her out into the open under the chopper where Michael reached down and pulled her up, Kahn on the other side was shooting any masked person that even so moved a muscle toward the chopper. Michael flopped the cop into a seat at the back then reached down for the mute and pulled him up
"I thought we where rescuing our families" Kahn asked
"Obviously not" Julian said watching the ground keeping the chopper steady. Duncan gave Lilly a foot up into the chopper as Michael pulled her up
"Are here's one now for the rest" Julian smiled glimpsing back at Lilly to quickly belted herself into the back seat she was never fond of flying.
Michael hesitated and didn't put his arm down when Selene and Marcus held up the floppy Viktor.
"Grab him Michael" Selene snapped at him but Michael's face winced and his eyes became black. Duncan pulled himself up into the chopper then grabbed Viktor himself and shoved him into the last seat.
"We can't take much more weight, and where starting to run low on fuel" Julian said really not wanting to say it.
"I'm going with them Duncan grabbed some armored vests and weapons then jumped out the chopper
"Dad!" Lilly yelled and tried to undo her seatbelt
"Stay there Lilly" Duncan told her a harsher tone she did as she was asked she knew he wanted to find Erika and now there was room aboard for Kain.
"Kain, in the chopper" Selene grabbed him by the arm and pulled him toward Michael who reached down.
"No I want to help you two I can help with my ability" He yelled to her
"No you can help by making me know your safe at home" she yelled pushing him again but once a gain he repealed
"Mum I want to help" he gave a pleading look
"I know you want to help, Kain you have done enough, I have done this manner times we will be fine take care of everyone else" She gave him back the motherly pleading eyes
"Alright" He reached up and grabbed Michaels arm and was pulled into the chopper. Selene gave Julian a wave that everyone was aboard
"We'll return" Kahn yelled to her as the chopper lifted into the sky. Duncan held up two armored vests in one hand two bets with weapons
"Are, I though you two may like these"
Selene without a doubt grabbed one of the belts and strapped it on then took the smaller armored vest marked with the usual M.
She gave a quick smile when she pulled the guns from there holsters it was her pair of personal Berettas with the S carved in to each handle.
Selene didn't wait for anyone charging into the swap
"Selene wait" she heard Marcus call after her but all she wanted was the twins.
She ran into the trees and onto the dock tracing her children's footsteps.
Saxon and Sophia remained quiet still as the light passed their tree trunk to up ahead of them. They heard the male climb up onto the roots of the tree they hid in looking around with his torch.
He stood silent looking but saw nothing and headed back onto the dock until a large brown long legged spider crawled out of the bark and over Sophia's neck, she let out a small squeal flicking it off to have Saxon shove his hand over her mouth to silence her. The man on the doc spun back around facing the torch back at the tree
"Well, well what do we have here?" he knew where they where hiding immediately. Sophia and Saxon heard him run back toward them and in a desperate escape they jumped out the tree trunk and over to the next tree slipping they fell into the murky green water below.
"Get back here" the human trailed them but slipped as well landing in the mud.
"Come on" Sophia had pulled herself up onto a large tree root and held out her hand for Saxon. Saxon reached up to grab her hand when he slid down the green slime sending him back into the water
"Saxon!" She yelled seeing the human wader though the water toward him. Saxon climbed up again reaching for her hand when the human grabbed his angle.
"He's got me!" Saxon yelled grabbing hold of the tree root not letting go
"Let go of him!" she screamed picking up a handful of slime and threw it at his face. It splattered over his mouth but he did not let go of Saxon just spit out foul ooze.
"You little bitch!" he snarled pissing her off further. She reached up and grabbed a branch snapping off a long low stick then held it up, it was still green making is flexible and she proceeded to whip him and poke at his face for him to let go of her brother.
"Ouch, you little bastard!" he yelled at her as he tried to turn his head away Saxon kicked him in the knuckles trying to pull away and finally the human let go.
"Come on!" Sophia helped pull her brother up both of them as quick as their small legs and arms could carry them climbed though the large swamp tree roots deeper into the thick swamp.
Marcus ran after Selene into the trees he was only in past a few trees deciding to take another path when he tripped on a broken wire fence falling down a bank landing on another body with a thump.
"Fuck" he cursed at not seeing the wire to look as see if the body had any more useful weapons when he recognized the blond lying motionless in the mud.
"Oh god no!" Marcus realized it was Erika laying on her side with her back to him. He grabbed her shoulder and pulled her back, wedged in her chest was a chunk of car engine shrapnel from the explosion.
"Erika" he whispered gently sliding his hand under her neck lifting her head.
No response the mud was red from her blood and she was frightfully pale.
Marcus panted heavy panicking, he looked up and from the prints and marks in the mud she had be hit fell back hitting the fence and fell down into the small trench her leg entwined in the wire making it impossible for her to get and half hanging her, face first in the mud.
"Marcus are you alright" Marcus heard Duncan coming.
"Oh no" Marcus muttered Duncan would die if he saw Erika.
"Got to make sure" Marcus's eyes watered putting his hand on her neck to checkfor a pulse.
