_Aki POV_
I was driving with Echo in the passenger's seat and the others in the back. I could hear them arguing, apparently having seven teens crammed into the back seats wasn't a good idea on her part. Evei and Kuro were pushing against each other and competing for space, Blaze and Yami kept quiet, Tidus was glaring at Evei and Kuro while mumbling about having a headache and Rex was flirting with Sierra or something.
"Move Kuro-"
"No, you move other Evei!"
"Hey! If you guys don't shut up I WILL turn this car around and we will not go to safety!" I tried to shout over them.
"You can't turn around; if we do Doji will just try and capture us."
"Shut up Tidus…"
"I wonder how it's going with Akira" Echo mumbled before checking her phone.
_Normal POV_
Akira lowered her gun, "I have a feeling something is watching us here."
"If something is watching us shouldn't we start walking to where Aki and Echo are going?" Blaze asked.
"Okay, let's get going then" Akira hesitantly led the group out of the front gates. What's up? Doji isn't doing anything to stop us. Akira stopped and began to dig through the bushes.
"What are you doing?" Wales attempted to look over Akira's body.
"Here" Akira tossed each one a small backpack, "In case one of us gets separated there is a map, compass and other things you'll need to find the location were going to, but please, I cannot stress this enough DON'T LOOSE THE MAP. Because if you do then anyone knows where we are hiding you guys."
"Got it." Everyone agreed. While walking along the dirt road everyone had taken a flashlight out of the bag. Wales slowed down to match Lucas's speed.
"Lucas, is something wrong?"
"I thought that maybe you'd forgotten about me, or didn't want to come see me when I saw the letter." He mumbled. Wales laughed slightly,
"Are you serious Lucas? I love you you're my brother; I hated not being able to see you all the time."
Lucas stayed silent for a moment, "You know the first time you came to see me? After the first week I think."
"Yeah, what about it?"
"You asked me if I wanted to leave or if I was uncomfortable here."
"I know, you said you were fine." Wales answered with confusion of where his brother was taking this conversation.
"I wasn't, I just thought you'd like to have me out of the house…"
Wales wasn't sure how to respond, "What-what was the matter?"
"Just a few nightmares, nothing serious like what I used to go through."
"Well, I assure you that when this is all over your very much welcome home, in fact it's lonely without you sometimes." The two laughed together.
The rest of the journey went on in silence.
_Meanwhile_
"I gave you one simple order, KEEP THE CHILDREN IN THE BUILDING!" Doji sat back down behind his desk. Nami, Namu and Tempest stood in front of him.
"Sir, we were doing well until-"
"Don't give me excuses Tempest!" Tempest stepped back a bit.
"Since you fools couldn't complete this simple task, I guess I'll have to call in someone else's help."
"Sir, I'm sure their help won't be necessary-"
"Now, now Nami are you trying to get rid of us?"
I'll stop there for now.
