Not Too Late For Love
Chapter Twelve: "You Say Please."
Galen looked around in awe he had never seen so many weapons in his life. He had never known this place existed. Rashel was running up and down like a kid in a candy store and Galen had to laugh. They were all arming more than they'd ever armed before.
They knew it would be needed. Galen picked up a Samurai sword and tossed it to Rashel who wielded it with the skill of a Master. Quinn was loading three guns with different types of bullets and then stashed three daggers in holders in his wrist, ankle and waist.
Galen himself wasn't taking any chances. From what Delos had said this would be a bastard and he knew he needed to be ready if he expected to see his sister again. He loaded up on double of everything and took plenty of magazines.
He wasn't coming out of that damn bunker without his sister. Never. All of them who were taking part in the mission were suited up and although Jez and Delos had demanded that they come they were not allowed to go any further than the van.
Maggie and Hannah were staying behind to run Daybreak and Illiena and the others were was going to be running the communications and making sure that no one was out of communication at any time. And preparing blocks to guard the manor while the others were away. No one was under any illusion that this was going to be easy.
At that moment the door to the storeroom banged open and Thierry and Delos walked in. Thierry had never looked in his life like he had at that moment.
Like he was going to war. Because should this mission succeed and they broke into the bunker that was going to happen. Daybreak was declaring official war on the Night World.
But the for the agents of Daybreak this was personal. They were rescuing close friends and the best agent(s) that Daybreak had. And no one would ever contemplate leaving Kaitlin or Nilsson in the hands of the Night World. Galen looked around his friends and knew that they were all aware that the lives of his sister and her soulmate now were in their hands.
Something that was not being ignored.
Thierry walked down one of the aisles and his aura of power was unmistakable.
He suited up and selected a blade that looked like a boomerang while Delos picked up a gun and a dagger. Seeing everyone was ready he turned and said
"All right Daybreak you know the plan. Hit hard and fast. You all have your parts." His eyes settled on Jez and Delos "I know this is hard for you both but under no circumstances are u to move from that car. Either of you." the nodded.
"I mean it." He said, "Because if you do I swear on my life I'll strip you of the right to missions and take the horse and the bike." This time the nods were meant. Nothing was worth losing those!
Besides they weren't stupid. They knew what was at stake and they could compromise.
Most of the time.
Thierry nodded satisfied and then addressed his agents "Ok guys move out." Checking their ammunition, weapons and equipment one more time they headed out of the manor and into a certain amount of the unknown.
Kaitlin lay on her cot staring at the ceiling. All the guards were terrified of her. Something had happened during the shooting of that bastard video to make them want to avoid coming anywhere near her. Good enough for them. She thought savagely.
That however did not escape the fact that she was terrified. For herself but more for Nilsson. She knew that he was still alive and had spoken a few words through the link they shared but they didn't want to alert the guards to their abilities so kept communications to a minimum.
Yet through their link Kaitlin knew that despite his brave act Nilsson was hurt and that made her want to kill every single guard here. And it made her ashamed. He was hurt because of her.
She got up off the bed and paced her room like a caged animal. There was nothing remotely useful in here. Not that she had expected there to be. It was meant to be a prison after all. But her gaze snapped up as she remembered something. There on the far wall.
A mirror.
She dashed for it and felt it to make sure it was real. It had obviously been forgotten about. This was a real stroke of luck! Someone up there did love her! She was beginning to believe otherwise.
She took it off the wall and took it too the bed. She glanced at her reflection and couldn't stop a wince. Her face was a mess. She looked like a panda. Her eyes were a yellow, green proving that the bruises had broken and were dying down but she still had a broken nose and a busted lip and cracks ribs that still caused her pain. And countless other injuries most inflicted by the bastards downstairs to prove a point.
Her hair was a tangled mess around her face and her eyes looked lost. She looked away her image didn't matter right now, her survival did. She took the coverlet from her cot and wrapped the mirror in it and broke it. She heard the crack and the coverlet grew slack, as the pieces broke apart.
Satisfied she took the pieces and hid them in strategic places round her room. She had already taken care of the surveillance. The tracker that had been placed on her was still in working order but the cameras had already been fed into a loop and the guards posted outside her door hardly took any notice of her anyway.
Some still thought her weak. She blew out a sigh and winced as the pain wracked through her chest. She got rid of the tiny glass pieces thinking of the old superstition of seven years bad look. The glass scattered across the floor and Kaitlin shook her head.
She made her own luck and if the Night World had anything to do with it she wouldn't have seven years left to worry about it anyway.
She tore off a piece from the sheet that was too small for the mattress on her cot and decided it would serve a better purpose if she used it to bind her ribs.
She removed her top and winced as spasms of pain wracked her rib cage. "Get a grip girl!" She scolded herself and then she took the length of sheet and started to bind her ribs.
It was a clumsy job and she knew Nilsson or Thea would have scoffed at it but it was the best she could do for the moment. And besides the pain relief was better even from the clumsy bindings.
They'd do for now. They made it easier to move and that was what was important she needed. She needed her movement to find Nilsson. He would not die here because of her.
At that moment the door creaked open and Kaitlin sat up her exhaustion forgotten and a scowl already in place. A shape shifter came in and moved around the walls not wanting to be any nearer to her than he had to be. Kaitlin laughed at the absurdity of it.
Them terrified of a seventeen year old girl. Yeah. Right. "If you've come to do anything other than let me go then get out." She hissed already turning away. The shifter looked up startled. To hell with all them the useless fools. Not one of them knew what was coming.
Not one of them.
But she knew. It was nothing like the glorious picture of victory the Night World had painted it was the end of the world. Both the Day World and the Night World. The old powers were waking up and she'd had dreams…
She understood them now. The dreams that had plagued her all of her life and made her dread sleep. She shook her head ridding herself of the images. They knew nothing.
The shifter looked up and said, "No one told us you were a shifter. Not until we saw that Sliver was being used." He shook his head "it was all just another attempt to make us into second class. I didn't know, but know this I will do everything I can to help you from now on."
Kaitlin knew him to be a liar from the moment he opened his mouth. All the bastard was there for was to gain her trust so she would spill secrets about Daybreak and about herself because Red Fern still didn't know where she came from. She was likely to die here but she was not going to die a traitor.
Red Fern was a bastard and he had underestimated her. Again. This really was starting to piss her off. The Shifter got a split second warning when her eyes flashed gold fire and then she had him pinned against the wall.
"Listen you lying traitorous bastard!" She screamed into his face "Red Fern can kiss my arse for anything from Daybreak. As for me he knows everything about me. I'm Kaitlin Drake. I'm the fourth wild power. I'm a shifter. Any other information you can go back and ask him he did kidnap me. He should damn well know."
With that she kneed him violently in the groin "And the next time anyone comes in here pretending to be a sliver tongue." She said pulling the shifter off the floor where he had fallen "I'll kill them." "GOT IT?" She roared
He nodded and hastily exited the rooms. "JERK!" Kaitlin screamed after him. She doubted he'd be back in a hurry. Male ego took time to heal and if he did go and tell Red Fern she'd kill him and he knew it too.
Bastards. The lot of them. She cursed them with every curse she could think of. The curses were falling easily off her tongue. Her ribs were hurting all over again. When she got out of this cell they were all going down. And the goddess help the person that got in her way.
Nilsson was chained to the wall opposite the door. Wooden shackles with Bast inlay. There was no way he was getting out those in a hurry. Not that he hadn't tried. And it wouldn't stop him from keeping trying. He cursed. He cursed Red Fern and his cronies from here to kingdom come. If they so much as touched Kaitlin again he'd kill them. One stake for each of them.
Not that he wasn't planning that anyway, but his mind set only give him one more reason to carry out the assassination.
He now had at least twenty reasons to stake Red Fern. Half of them focused on the fact that Red Fern was a bastard and he was the reason Kaitlin had been kept from him for so long.
Nilsson was sick with worry. He'd spoken with Kaitlin briefly and she knew that she lived and wasn't chained up. He deducted that they planned to move her somewhere else because they didn't want risk losing her again. But also that they didn't think she was a threat.
Which figured because they underestimated her power. It would be the biggest mistake they ever made.
But he knew she was hurt her pain was vibrating through the soulmate link and it made his heart ache.
At that moment there was a clatter outside the door and Nilsson's head snapped up preparing to listen. "What the hell happened to you?" a voice said sounding on the verge of laughter. "Would you shut up!" A second voice hissed.
Nilsson recognised this voice as the voice of the most cautious of his guards. He was a dangerous one. "Oh cam down he's been out cold for days!" The first scowled and Nilsson smiled at their complacency. This was getting better and better.
"Did you here about Thierry?" The first said suddenly as if he had suddenly remembered something. "No." a new voice said. There was a shudder moved round the two guards. "Well the disk ended up at his place you know as bait to see if the rumours were true. But well whoever thought that was an idiot." The first finished "Thierry went ballistic I don't think anyone has seen him so angry." The second said suddenly forgetting about his earlier caution.
"He caught and killed the messengers." Nilsson knew someone else must have done that bit. Thierry never killed. "And demanded to know who was the Shifter on the disk and that she be released immediately." The third scoffed "as if that's going to happen." "Well, yes. But Thierry was furious. He said treating two Night Worlders as we did was against Night World law and that we should forget the foolishness with Daybreak. They were going to lose anyway. He killed four others for suggesting that he was part of Daybreak."
"He's not one of them." The second agreed. Nilsson smiled. No. It wasn't that he wasn't a Daybreaker he was just too smart to be baited. Well-done Thierry. Nilsson congratulated careful to not broadcast his thoughts.
"They were stupid to think Thierry was part of Daybreak." The second said like an after thought and then said "So what happened to you then?" "That bitch that's what." The third snapped. Kaitlin. Nilsson was immediately on his guard.
"Oh ho! She got you good!" The first guard laughed, "Yes, well she's no as angelic as she looks. She knew I was lying. I told him she would."
At that moment there was a chocking noise and Nilsson was astonished to hear the third guard drop to the ground and a new voice cut in. "I told if he told he'd be killed. I swear if you say anything you'll be next." Kaitlin! Or rather an astral projection of Kaitlin.
Nilsson knew she was still in her cell. And Nilsson could bet she would have no idea what had just happened. Her powers were beginning to show. She disappeared and Nilsson could have laughed the guards were shell-shocked.
Daybreak had learned early on that you didn't mess with Kaitlin it appeared it was the Night World's turn. And about time too.
He heard the door begin to click round and Nilsson made with looking like he was still half dead. One of the vampire guards walked in. Nilsson knew that the other had disappeared. Part of the plan he would guess. They didn't expect him to fall for it did they? Ok. Maybe they did. He'd play along.
"Nilsson," He said "Yeah," Nilsson said filling his voice with sleep. "I came to say that I've been wrong. I want a break. I want to help you." Nilsson forgot all pretence of sleep. It was just too absurd.
"Oh yeah?" He said, "Please, yeah there is something you can do for me." He said with the straightest face he could muster. The vampire nodded "Anything my friend." "Tell me do I look like a fool to you?" The vampire was shocked and shook his head.
"I mean," Nilsson mused, "I may look stupid but I know who runs this bunker and you don't double cross Red Fern. Especially right under his nose."
Nilsson was furious. "No one switches sides here. It's just not done. Switches sides means death. So do me a favour and get the hell out." The vampire looked astounded "Red Fern has been missing for twenty years my friend." He said and Nilsson laughed.
"You really expect me to believe you've switched sides on Red Fern? If you expect me to believe that then you're the fool." The vampire give up the pretence of being friendly "Stop being such an ass Nilsson I want to help you." "Then help me by quitting while you're ahead. I have nothing to say to you."
The vampire snarled, "Switch sides and we'll spare your life." "Next lie please?" Nilsson called. The vampire advanced on Nilsson and hit him with brute force across the jaw.
Nilsson felt blazing pain across the left side of his face and hoped to god his jaw hadn't dislocated. Nilsson snarled, "Get the hell out my face! I'm not a traitor and I won't die one. He kicked out with one of his legs taking the vampire by surprise.
The vampire windmilled and sensing a small triumph he kicked out again this time winding his opponent and rendering him speechless.
"Tell Red Fern from me that he can stuff his offer. One, because he seems to have all the answers he needs two, because he's an arrogant bastard and I wouldn't help him if I had one more day to live and three, he hurt Kaitlin and if one of you lays one finger on her I swear I'll kill Red Fern and you all one stake for every one of you."
The vampire looked up into the flashing eyes of Nilsson one of Daybreak's agents and believed every word the vampire had ever said. He looked up and saw a defiant agent to the end and knew he had been beaten.
And he found himself backing away from Nilsson wondering for the thousandth time whether Red Fern could win when the agents of Daybreak seemed so powerful. They didn't seem to care that they might die. Only that they would matter in the battle every Night Person was fighting. And in that moment he knew he had picked the losing side.
Galen was impatient Daybreak had never been on such a mission before. Their missions had been split into groups. Usually the soulmate pairs they had never been in such a big mission. Thierry was driving while Delos and Ash poured over a map and swapped last minute ideas and queries trying to close the loopholes.
The biggest was that they had no idea where Kaitlin and Nilsson were being kept. All they could do was guess until they were inside and Delos and Jez could hack into surveillance and find out. Delos had guessed that Kaitlin and Nilsson would be kept apart.
He also thought that Nilsson would be in the dungeons while Kaitlin would be kept somewhere in the building probably the east wing so that she was close to the leaders. Thierry had agreed with this. And the others had thought it made sense.
So the Daybreakers were splitting into groups half going after Nilsson the other going after Kaitlin. Galen was leading the group to go after Kaitlin. Those who were going with him included Keller, Winnie, her soulmate Thomas, Nissa, James, Poppy, Thea and Eric.
Thierry's group was going to the dungeons with Ash, Rowan, Kestrel, Jade, Quinn, Rashel, Lupe and Morgread. Jez and Delos were also staying with the car and offering cover fire and a quick get away once they came back out again.
Jez felt bad because Morgead was going in and she wasn't there to cover for him. They hugged and she whispered, "Come back or I'll kick your ass!" Morgread grinned down at her with searing green eyes and said "don't worry babe, I'm coming back things were just starting to get good!"
He kissed her quickly and climbed from the van. He shut the door and the van became invisible.
Jez sat in the driver's seat even if they had a job to do but they also had to be ready to move. They might be invisible by sight but it didn't make them invisible if anything hit them! Then Jez and Delos had the hardest job of all watching the others walk away without them.
Kaitlin had a very strange dream. She was stood in front of her captors and because the Shifter had told two of the men that he had had a run in with "the bitch" as he called her she'd lashed out and he'd collapsed.
Then she'd woken up and found guards surrounded her. As if the day could get any better! She thought groggily. She had snuck a piece of glass from its hiding place and hid it on her person and then slowly sat up. "Did I miss the party?" She asked, "You're being moved." The guard who she somehow knew was called Paul said.
She slowly hid another of her makeshift weapons and then swung her legs over the cot. The guards were wary of her and weren't taking any chances. "You're coming with us little girl." One jeered.
She got up so swiftly no one stopped her and she kneed the perpetrator in the groin. Someone tried to grab her and she swiftly downed him as well and she turned in a circle and snarled "anyone else want to try?"
She looked down at the guards on the floor. "I'm not here by choice and I will not take any bullshit from any of you. I've been beaten enough for one lifetime so one more punch won't matter. So I'm asking you, does anyone else want to try?"
Everyone was stunned "Well?" She demanded, "Thought not." She said and then they shook themselves from their stupor and marched her from the room. Left, right. Nilsson knew she was being moved and tracked her progress through the bunker.
They stopped in a non-discript corridor and the guards opened the door pushed her inside and closed and locked the door behind her. She turned round and felt very real fear slam into her.
"Hello my sweet."
"Galen!" Jez's voice snapped into the intercom. "Get back the other way! They've moved her!" Galen swore. The security in the bunker had doubled in seconds. "Shit!" Keller said, "Galen, we've got to go back!" Winnie said and he knew she was right.
They would have to head for the dungeons maybe after they got Nilsson out he'd know where Kaitlin was. Besides the Daybreakers had to get out in one piece. "We'll find her." James and Poppy said in unison.
"I know." Galen said, "I just want to know she's ok. Now." "I know. I always feel that way about Phil." Poppy said and Galen smiled gratefully at her. She knew what he was going through.
"Have you got the Medi-kits Thea?" He asked "Yeah," She said "Good." He replied "cos' we're going to need them." "Ok guys," Thomas said coming back with Nissa "Get ready to sprint fro your lives."
And the nine sprinted as one unit for their lives.
Then above them the alarm went off. "SHIT!" Thierry's curse came over the mike "We're made!" Galen closed his eyes. The groups had been taking out guards quietly but he knew it couldn't last.
"Where are you?" Jez's voice cut in "We've lost the visual!" "We're pinned under the reactor." Thierry said, "It'll mess with our transmitters." "How far from us are you?" Keller asked frantically giving Thierry their position. "We're at the other end of the building. I've sent Quinn, Rashel, Ash and Lupe along to the dungeons. I can't get a progress report."
"We're under fire!" Rashel's voice cut in. The sound of bullets echoed over the earpieces. Galen stopped his group and Poppy and James took two guards each. "Okay guys we're going to have to split up." Galen said.
"I'm going to help Quinn and the others and I'm getting my sister and her soulmate back. Three of you can come with me the others need to go and help Thierry."
The quickly split off, Keller, Thea and Eric joining Galen while Poppy, James, Nissa, Thomas and Winnie formed the group going after Thierry. "Good luck." Poppy said, "She'll be ok Galen I know it!" Thomas grinned, "We can do this!" James agreed Galen smiled and said "Thanks guys." And then the agents nodded to one another and ran in different directions to help their friends.
"Oh bloody hell!" Morgead yelled as he staked another vampire in the shoulder that got too close. "Do they ever stop coming?" Jade said throwing another "No," Thierry said fighting an attacker of his own. Then he dived behind a post as a shot aimed at his head went wide.
"Sir," Kestrel said, "We've got to get you out of here." "We're buggered if you get caught." Rowan finished her sister's sentence. "I know." Thierry said looking around the shelter of the post and diving out the way as a new hail of fire nearly took his head off.
Morgread swore and swore again. "Hell! We're pinned." "Morgead!" Jez's voice came over his intercom sounding close to tears. "I'm coming back Jez." He promised.
"But you know Kaitlin matters we have to get her out of here." Jez swiped her tears away. Kaitlin would go ballistic when she found out but Morgead was right. She needed to be helped. She'd have done the same for any of them.
Then there was yelling and screaming at the far side of the room and Jade chanced a look round "James!" She yelled. The others looked round to find that James, Poppy, Winnie, Thomas and Nissa had everything under control.
Jade ran out from behind cover shooting someone that was about to get a shot off at her cousin. "We're so pleased to see you!" She hugged him. "We've over stayed our welcome sir." Nissa said "We've got to get out of here and draw them away from the others so they can complete the job." Winnie said. Thierry nodded and loaded another magazine. The others followed and cocked their guns.
"Let's go."
Thierry looked around and cast out his senses. No Watch. The alarm was still loud and wailing. He hated running while his other agents were still in here somewhere but he also knew that their part in the mission was over. Now all they could do was draw some of the fire off the others and hope that they managed to complete what they had not.
"Damn I'm out!" Ash hissed "Here!" Lupe passed him another magazine before returning fire. Quinn and Rashel were performing miracles ducking in and out of cover but they were still pinned. The whirl of bullets were whizzing past them making it hard to make a stand.
"AGENTS DOWN!" The scream came from Morgead "Who?" Ash demanded "Poppy and Winnie." Morgead said and then he yelled "Hell I'm hit!" "Morgead!" Jez said "Jez!" Thierry's voice said "Stay were you are! Delos offer cover fire we're almost out."
"We're in the truck." James said his voice full of pent up emotion. "Leave now." Galen said "No." Jez and James and Thomas said at the same time. "We'll finish what we came here to do." Jez said, "They'll be ok. All of them."
"I'm out!" Rashel said at the same time Lupe screamed, "I'm out!" At that moment Quinn dived in front of a bullet meant for Rashel and shielded her yelping as the sliver bullet slammed into his shoulder and collapsed.
"Quinn!" Rashel screamed, "I'm out!" Ash yelled desperately staring numbly at his friend. "Here!" a voice yelled above the din. Eric threw three cartridges and Ash caught them and passed one to Lupe who loaded her gun. Thea dived for Quinn.
"I have to get him out of here!" "Then go!" Keller yelled as Eric gave the teams all his and Thea's cartridges. Thea closed her eyes touching Quinn and holding hands with Eric who still had his gun pointed in the direction of the door. Rashel had hold of Quinn's hand and they all faded out.
Galen opened fire as more guards poured into the room and then dashed for it when he was sure Thea had managed to get them out of there.
There was a blast of blue light and he felt his vision go starry but knew they were safely back to the van. "Well done guys." He said into the mike. "Now get out of here!" "No." Delos said, "Quinn won't make it otherwise!" Ash yelled, "Get out of here."
"No." Rashel said "Quinn loves Kaitlin like a sister and if he finds out we left without her he'll go ballistic." "Shut up Rashel." Keller said "You know as well as we all do that if Kaitlin finds out four agents were hurt trying to get her out she'll go ballistic."
Galen looked at Keller, Ash and Lupe the last remaining agents in the bunker and they all agreed and yelled, "GO!" At the same time. Thierry switched connections and Mary-Lynette's voice came over the mikes.
"We're going spare here Thierry!" She said, "Have you got them?" "NO. Mary get Blaise ready we have injuries we have to leave now." Then he addressed the agents remaining.
"Bring her out guys. Quinn, Poppy, Winnie and Morgead will never forgive us otherwise." "We will Thierry." Ash said, "Promise us." Rashel and Jez said at the same time. They sounded like they had been crying. It was probable Galen knew their soulmates had been hit.
"I promise." Galen whispered. Then the line went dead. "Looks like we're on our own now guys." Lupe said, "let's do what we came do." Keller said. They checked their weapons stole spare magazines and weapons from the guards they had knocked out or killed and moved out.
Nilsson listened to the gunfire knowing it could only mean one thing. Daybreak had done the unthinkable.
They had come for them.
And with brute force too.
He knew it was true when the security around his cell increased ten fold. There could be no other reason other than the bunker had been breached. He smiled. Daybreak was not to be underestimated.
He felt pain and panic reining inside the bunker but he also knew that at least one of his own agents had been hurt.
He knew that somewhere in the bunker Kaitlin was trying to cover her panic. But although she was mindful of the gunfire that wasn't her primary worry. He had felt the fear slam into her like a brick wall a little while before the gunfire started.
He had to get to her.
He had pulled at the walls and screamed in fury. He heard a crack and started. He'd broken the bast seal inside the manacles but knew there was no way he could get rid of the cuffs themselves.
He winced as the wood burned his skin and great welts were around his wrists and up his arms were the wood was breaking the skin.
It was a painful and dangerous reminder that for all that he was powerful he still had the big weaknesses, which the Night World could play on.
The guard outside was growing uneasy and then Nilsson heard footsteps. "Marco!" The newcomer yelled, "We had them pinned and they out shot us. They just vanished. Vanished into think air."
Thea…
Nilsson cursed again. He'd known there had been injuries and now he knew they had to be bad for her to pool her power like that she'd only ever done it once before.
He just hoped they'd got away in time. It had be miles back to the base and if the hits were bad enough…
Then he just hoped to god they'd got them out of here fast enough.
Just then he heard a crack at the door and the hinges splintered as the door was kicked in. Nilsson looked up and saw a gun levelled at him. And Nilsson knew he didn't want to die yet and snarled trying to dive out the line of fire.
"Damn it Nilsson hold still!" A familiar voice said Nilsson looked up squinting "Ash?" he asked.
He looked up and saw the flash of the tell tale smooth grin and Ash answered "No, Jeez its Maya! Hold still so I can get a lock on them cuffs I ain't touching those bastards."
Nilsson couldn't help but smile. "Then hurry up and get me the hell out of here. I need to get to Kaitlin. Now." "So do I!" Galen yelled from where he had his gun levelled at the two guards.
Ash took aim and the cuffs opened and Nilsson freed himself and ran to the door and saw Lupe and Keller crouched at opposite ends of the corridor. "We're all that's left." Ash said gripping his friend's shoulder.
Nilsson was battered, bruised and limping a little but he was ready to fight and there was a fire in his eyes Ash had never seen before.
"We're getting her back Nilsson. I promise." He said. Having a soulmate changed things he knew and he also knew that he would do anything for Mary-Lynette. In the short time he had known her he had come to consider Kaitlin a friend.
She was so easy to be around and talk too. Ash was discovering that friendship was something to be trusted and he was beginning to believe it in. he wanted to keep it that way.
He had to help get his friend out of here.
"Give me a god damn gun!" Nilsson said Galen took a spare from his waistband and Nilsson checked the magazine and cocked it ready.
"Do we know where she is?" He asked Galen scowled. "We did." "They moved her." Ash clarified "There was a shot at Keller's end of the corridor and they turned and Galen ran to his soulmate.
"The guards are coming." Keller said running back. "Ok I'll find her." Nilsson said looking for the pull that would lead him to his soulmate.
"Damn it!" He cursed "That tells me she's somewhere in the West Wing. The magically guarded wing." Lupe called from her scouting position at he end of the corridor.
Everyone agreed that was probably the case. But the fact still remained….
"Damn it!" Nilsson cursed, "Where is she how am I going to find her?"
"You say please." Said a voice.
