Chapter 7: Regrets and Leads part 2
The day had been long and boring with people scuttling this way and that. Shasta and Aileen walked along the beautiful garden. They had been outfitted this morning for they're dresses. Shasta had tried to protest that she already had something but couldn't refuse. But somehow Shasta had weasled out of it and into her original outfit.
"If those tailors catch you they're gonna make you take it off," giggled Aileen as she looked Shasta up and down. The doctor had taken a second x-ray and told her to use only one crutch just to be safe.
"Well, It's kinda hard to do the crutch walk with a long dress. Don't ya think?" asked Shasta in a dead serious tone. The evening had been long and boring. Quatre and Trowa had been following both of them everywhere until the girl's shook them off in the hedge maze which both of them knew by heart.
The air had stiffened when they lost them. Shasta had a very nervous gut feeling in the pit of her stomach. She felt like they were being shocked. Shasta turned when she heard something move in the bushes. They had almost jumped out of they're skins when they heard it. But it was only a squeral....just a critter.
"Shasta, this may sound way weird but something doesn't feel right....I wanna go back, It's kinda freaky out here," quivered Aileen as she grabbed hold of her friends arm.
"It's okay, it's probably just the wind fooling with us....but I have to agree with you I can't help but feel a little to uncomfortable," said Shasta trying her best to hear comforting. But her hands and legs shook.
Shasta heard a click like a guns. Aileen froze in her shoes as she heard the same noise. Shasta nervously turned to face a four dark figures. They all held guns in they're hands. Aileen slowly turned and almost passed out but contained herself and went behind Shasta in fear.
"Come with us or parish," said one of the men as he clicked his gun ready to fire if needed. One of the men whispered something into the others ear and the other pointed to Shasta.
Shasta grunted refusing to move from her place in the middle of all the firing. All guns pointed to her and her alone. THey had move or you'll die looks on they're faces.
"What do you want from us?" asked Shasta having gathered courage from rage and fear. She was ready to attack if needed.
"That is classified information," said one of the men. That did it Shasta was ready to attack and she dove toward one of them. BUt was meet by a bullet grazing her cheek. It left a deep cut as blood trickled down her face. She grunted in pain as she hit the ground a little to hard. The pain in her ribs thrashed out of her. She yelped in pain as pain surged through her entire body as another guy put his foot on her boken ribs.
"You come or die," repeated the man as he pointed the gun to her head. Thats when Shasta heard a scream and saw her friend fall to the ground unconcious. But everything had blacked out the last thing she saw was her friend falling to the ground.
"Phase two complete cammander, should we return the subjects to the base?" asked one of the men as he talked into a walkie-tealkie.
