Kai's POV

I looked out around, it was eerily silent.

"Hey, hey Tal. Wake up." I said, trying to wake up my best friend. The red head was sure asleep. I finally just pushed him out of bed.

"Kai, what was that for?" He asked me as be rubbed the back of his head.

"Tala, listen. The Abbey is too quiet, just a minute ago there was a HUGE," I spread out my arms to show just how big it was,"commotion. Someone was yelling something about someone escaping! It's perfect, we can escape now too!"

Tala looked up at me with bleary eyes. "Are you sure Kai. What if we're captured?"

"Don't worry about it, lets go!" I said to him.

Our little legs pounded against the cold concrete. We were running to the outside.

"Hey, Kai?" Asked Tala.

"Yeah?" I panted.

"Do you know how to get out of here?"

I stopped. "No, I don't. Let's just go this way." I said pointing to the right. It went up, and all we wanted was to get above ground.

We started running again, slowly the was grew lighter and lighter, until we ran into a door. It was left a little open, the sunlight was streaming in. Ow! That sunlight sure is bright!

"Come on Tala, lets go!"

"Hah hah! Okay Kai!" The red head said.

We ran straight out the door, and into the woods. It was a cool and dark place, I suddenly felt very small.

"Tala?" I asked.

"Yeah Kai?" He responded back.

"Tala, we're free!" I whispered. Suddenly there were gunshots near us, I panicked.

"Hurry Tala!" I whispered harshly grabbing his hand.

I pulled him through the underbrush, no longer caring where we were going, as long as it was away from the gunshots. Deeper and deeper we went, no longer looking where we were placing our feet.

All of a sudden I felt my ankle twist sharply, and I went down to the ground. I didn't cry out, but as Tala pulled me to my feet I couldn't help but whimper.

"Kai! Are you okay?" He asked, the worry plainly written on his face.

"I'll be fine," I muttered grimacing. "Come on, we have to keep going."

After a while we came upon a clearing. In it was the largest tree I ever saw. We decided to stay hidden because of the rustling in the trees. It was a good thing too. Soon there was a figure leaping into the big tree. There was more rustling and it appeared at the base of the trunk.

There were many surprising things about her. One, she some how had gotten black arm guards like mine, except those had wicked looking knives attached on the ends. Two, she seamed completely content having people chasing her. Finally, she shouted towards the sky, "Try and find me now Boris... I'm waiting, and you know that's not something I like to do."

We could only sit and watch as Boris's foot soldiers attacked her. She seemed to be doing well, managing to knock out a few of the people. She was doing quite well until one of them pulled out a knife. That when she fell. The person that had pulled out the knife was none other than Boris. He had pulled the knife out of its sheath and dragged it across the girls left shoulder blade to her hip.

By then we were backing away. Tala pulled my hand, and we turned and ran, well to the best of my ability I tried. If that was what happened when we were caught, we were never going to try escaping again.

When we had collapsed in our beds agin, we talked quietly.

"Kai, I'm going to try and fix your ankle. I think you broke it."

"Tals, just leave it alone." I had my ankle proped up on my knee.

"Too late." He quickly moved over to me and yanked ot back into place. God, that hurt. But it did feel a little bit better.

"Thanks Tala." All I got was a smile.

Suddenly there was a loud knock at the door.

For a special someone ;) Thanks for reading everyone!
