Edora's heart couldn't stop pounding. She didn't know how she got out of there, but she knew she wasn't out of it.
-Mom... was practically crying Aeron.
-I know honey... we'll have to leave the house, do you understand? We'll go there one last time but never come back.
She was also practically crying.
-But mom... they will always find us... in this case, there is no need to run.
-What the hell are you saying... I'm not going to give you to them just for them to have your stupid recipe. It's yours! You deserve to have the recognition of it and your name on every paper, do you hear me. You made it, they don't deserve it and mostly not for his potential bad use.

-But mom... if we run... there will be no way there gonna let you go when they find us.

-Honey... did you see what was going to happen, they were certainly not going to give me a big hug. Sorry to be the one who tells you this but I'm probably going to die both ways. The important mission is keeping YOU safe. I haven't figured out a plan yet but I will, I promise.

-But... they didn't shoot.
-Of course they didn't or you'll be in their arms right now. If it wasn't for... you know... they would have shot in no seconds.
Dam it was torture seeing him again.
-But doesn't that mean they're not all bad?
-And they say you're the smart one! No my love, this man isn't even close to good, so don't even ask about the others. We'll stick to MY plan, Ok.
She was yelling.
-I'm sorry mummy... he bursts into tears... I only wanted to do something to help you...
-Oh my precious little baby... I know you did, nothing is your fault. It's all mine for having a word of this to Biden. You should never trust the help for the harvest, now I know.
-What are we going to be? What's going to happen to our home?
-I really don't know, but I'm sure of one thing, you will be safe and going to be the most famous scientist on this earth.
-But I don't want to be a scientist if you're not here to see me be one.
-I will baby, I will. But for that to happen, we need to run away as fast as possible.

Later... arriving at the farm, they both get out really fast to enter the home as quickly as possible. Then Edora gives her son a suitcase and directs him to his bedroom. While he gathers his things, she goes into the basement and opens her safe to collect the famous concoction, a commander and all the money she had left. She then goes upstairs in her room and proceeds to do the same thing as her son. Her hands practically shaking. After ordering her stuff, she takes care of opening a little box under her bed and searching for one specific photo. When she finds it, she takes her things and goes to Aeron's room.

-Aeron, are you finished? She asks while entering.
But no response. He's not in the room.
-No no no no no, AERON! AERON, WHERE ARE YOU?
She screams the highest that she can. But replacing the calming voice of her son, she hears really fast steps downstairs. So she goes down in total panic, letting her things go, holding her commander close to her heart and running outside to the porch.

-BABY, WHERE ARE YOU? BABY, PLEASE COME BACK TO ME!
You couldn't hear a single thing she said because of how broke her voice was and with how the crying swallowed her.
-BABY...come back...
She was worn out. Looking near and far.
However, in her despair, she noticed some agitation in the field and while approaching it, Edora firmly took the commander in her hands and discreetly said...
-Machine gun. For the little cylinder to convert into the big demand she had made.
-YOU ASHOLE...IF I FIND YOU, BE PREPARED TO RECEIVE WHAT YOU DESERVE!
She provocatively declared before running in the tall stems.
-BABY, SCREAM, SCREAM IF YOU CAN!
-MOM... She heard in the quarter northeast of her field.
-DON'T WORRY HONEY, MOMMY'S COMING FOR YOU.
