Chapter 21:
MAX POV:
I ran over to Ariana, but I knew she was gone before I reached her. Her eyes fluttered shut and she moaned, and then went limp. I took her body and laid her head on my thigh. But I had no time to mourn.
'Max! We need to go…now!'
Iggy.
'Take Fang! I've got Ariana! Everybody, U and A…NOW!' Everybody finished off what they were doing (kicking Eraser butt!) and zoomed up into the air. I watched as Whitecoats began to fire, and I wanted to yell at them to watch out, but because of the wind, they wouldn't be able to hear me. Some of the Whitecoats turned on me, and I faced my back to them, scooped up Ariana, and pushed off into the air with all my might.
'Report!' I yelled.
'Okay here.'
'I'm fine.'
'I'm hungry!' Want to guess whose reply that was?
'Where to?' Iggy asked, and I saw him drop in altitude slightly. From him holding an unconscious body to me holding a lifeless body, we needed to get moving…fast. Or so God help us.
'As far as we can get without food and water, and then we find a place for shelter. Sound good?' Everyone nodded, too tired to speak. I sighed, taking in the blue skies around me. Then, suddenly, I cocked my head to one side, listening. The faint roar of a chopper could be heard over the wind. This wasn't over yet.
