Logan, I know you can' hear me, but I want you to know, I love you. I'm sorry I didn't say it sooner. I don't know what this lady's gonna do to me, so I'm not sure if I'll remember anything form after the escape. But how could I ever forget you? How could I forget your eyes, your touch, your compassion. How could I? I understand now Zack, there are some people that you just can't forget. I'll only forget you if they want to hurt you. I'll forget just like they taught us when we were kids. I won't let them hurt you, I won't. Logan, thank you for everything, for giving me something to fight for. I love you Logan. I always will no matter what.

Max, I know you're out there somewhere. I know you're alive, you have to be. Why else would I be worried sick about you? I wish there was something I could do to get you back, to bring you home. I love you Max. I feel like it's my fault that they have you now. Like there was something I could do. I shouldn't have let Lydecker take me away from you. I shouldn't have left you there, alone in the woods. I'm so sorry Max. I'm hear if you need me, I always will be. Just say the word and I'm there. I love you and I'll do anything to get you back, I have to get you back. I love you Max, I love you.

{{Wow. Manticore really must have gone down, the place is nearly deserted. Who would have thought, the great and mighty Manticore brought down by the very children it created. A slightly wicked smile crept up to the young woman's face as she silently moved through the empty halls of Manticore. Here we go, now this is lookin' familiar,}} She thought as she entered the hallway from her dream the previous night. Hold on Maxie, I'm coming. Staying close to the wall the soldier checked around the corner for any possible guards protecting Max's cell.
{{Two? There's only two? It can't be that easy, can it?}}
##Flash##
There are hundreds of guards running around grabbing what they could before they left. There are a few Commanding Officers shouting for the soldiers to obey their orders and keep Manticore running at full productivity but they were being ignored by the majority of the AWOL officers. The men were jumping at their chance for freedom, some are killed in the process but most of the men clear the fence, and escape. Only a handful of soldiers were left to secure the entire complex. Meaning security was stretched thin.
## End Flash##
{{Okay so maybe two guards is more than they can really afford. Nothing let putting up a big red flag that says "HEY something important is in here!"}} She laughed to herself. Gracefully the young woman came around the corner grabbing one of the guards from behind and slamming him up against the wall knocking him out. As she dropped the first guard the second came up from behind, but before he could attack the young woman threw her leg up kicking the second guard in the face when he was just behind her shoulder. She had to suppress a giggle. It had been so long since she had been in combat, but she reminded herself 'no killing'. It was almost an unwritten law with her, but laws were made to be broken.
"Sorry boys." she whispered.
Pulling a lock pick from 'knot' the top section her hair was in she easily open the door.
"You're slippin guys."she mumbled to the powers that be. Slipping in through the door she looked around quickly, immediately noticing that it wasn't the right room. {{Oh wait a minute, what's this.}} She walked over to the seam in the wall that the untrained eye wouldn't have noticed. Finding the release mechanism she opened the hidden door finding Max in a make shift hospital room.
"Max." she breathed when she got a better look at the once strong soldier. Running over to her bedside the young woman brushed hair from Max's sweat soaked face.
"Maxie. Maxie? Wake up sweetie. Maxie." she whispered in a strong tone. Max began to stir then reluctantly opened her eyes. It took her eyes a second to focus, but Max recognized the face even though it had been years since she had seen it.
"Dre?"she asked unbelieving.
"Yeah Maxie. Come on - I'm getting you outta here." She helped Max sit up and handed her some cloths to put on. "Do you think you can move on your own?"
"I think so, but not real fast. I don't feel well."she whispered like a child.
"Okay, that's all we need. You ready sweetie?" Max just nodded. Dre helped the weakened Max out of her 'cage' and down the hall towards the place Dre had entered.
{{Brin? Brin where are you? I know you're near by.}}
They had reach Dre's entrance and her car could be seen from there.
"Hey, Maxie - see my car?" Dre pointed as she spoke. Max nodded too weak to speak. "Okay, get to my car as fast as you can and I'll meet you there in a second okay?"
"Where are you going? Don't leave me Dre."Max pleaded.
"I just have to finish something - tie up a loose end. I'll be right there. I promise."Dre gave her a quick squeeze before gently easing her out the 'door'. When Max had reached the car Dre spun on her heal coming face to face with Brin.
"Well well well. If it isn't Adriann pride of the family."
