I don't know if you caught it but the last line in the last chapter is an actual quote. They might continue to appear here and there.
"You've been here this entire time?" Alec asked after they had ridden silently for a few moments. He better not lecture me about staying in one place too long like Zack always does.
"Yes. As soon as I escaped I came back here." They flashed their badges as they hit a checkpoint. "JamPony messengers."
"I lost track of you after you set everyone at Manticore free." He was looking for me? Alec turned to look at her. "Why did you do that anyway?"
"Renfro ordered the place destroyed. I couldn't let everyone just die." She shot him a quick glance. "She saved me. I don't know why, but she stepped in front of a bullet for me." Why. Why would she do that?
"She seemed to be obsessed with you back at Manticore." They caught sight of the building the last package was supposed to go. "Kept talking about using a child of yours to decode your DNA." Decode my DNA? They designed me, they should know what everything is for.
Max gave an involuntary shiver and pressed her hand over her stomach. If I am pregnant, I'll just be glad that we're out of that hellhole. Alec didn't think anything of her movement. He had already started in the building's front doors. But still, what am I going to do?
THANKS FOR READING, PLEASE REVIEW (HINTS AND IDEAS MUCH APPRECIATED)
SPOILER: LOOK FOR A CERTAIN BLONDE X5 TO APPEAR TO LECTURE MAX (AND MORE?).
