⚠Guns, cussing️, death of cops, explosions, semi-talk of past abuse⚠️

Before Aiden could reply the door to their room swung open aggressively...

"Police! Show yourselves!" One of the people yelled while three cops came into the room, guns pointing at the two of them.

Aiden and Jack put their hands up as they stepped into the light of one of the cop's flashlights.

They all dropped their guns quickly when they saw who it was.

"Names?" One of the officers asked.

"Jack Jane," Jack replied as he turned his phone flashlight off with only one hand.

"Aiden Kenith," Aiden replied as he squinted his eyes, the lights directly in his eyes.

"Thank God. You two come with me while you two and everyone else looks for more kids." The main officer stated getting a nod from everyone.

"My name is Ara. You are both going to stay by me and I am going to bring you down to the station where Cassie is going to pick you up okay?" The officer now known as Ara stated as she started to walk out of the room.

"Okay." The boys agreed as they followed her.

"So this is what this place looks like." Aiden thought aloud in a whisper.

Ara had her gun out infront of her as her eyes scanned the area.

"Come on quickly, this way." She said as she started to walk towards the exit of the building.

The boys nodded and followed her.

They quickly made it to the exit and ran out of the building and into the police car.

Ara said some things into her walky-talky as Aiden and Jack buckled up in the back seat.

"I forgot what it looked like out here... Is it always this bright?" Aiden asked as he shielded his eyes from the sun.

"Unless it's raining yeah," Jack replied with a chuckle.

Ara stepped on the gas and drove off towards the station.

"Alright boys, we should be ther-" Ara was cut off by a loud explosion that caused the ground to shake.

She quickly hit the break and looked in the mirror.

The entire building that they had just left was up in flames, presumably killing everyone and everything inside.

"What was that?!" Jack asked as he started to turn around and look out of the back window.

"Nothing Hon, turn back around and don't look behind you okay?" Ara said, her southern mom's tone slipping out some as she typed things into her computer, informing everyone at the station what had just happened.

"Okay," Jack replied as he sat back down, leaning slightly into Aiden's side seeing as the back seat was quite small.

"How about you two talk about what you will do when you get home because you will be staying with Jack's moms for a while," Ara suggested trying to distract the boys from the buring building behind them.

"Really? Cool!" Jack exclaimed as he saw the building in the side mirror.

He didn't want to worry Ara more than she already was so he pretended that he couldn't see anything.

"We could watch movies! A lot of them have come out since 2019. Oh, and we can go to the park behind my house!" Jack said as he saw Aiden see the building as well.
