"Plan B Hermano," Jorge snapped us back to reality, viewing the death drop of a canyon below us as casually as a sidewalk. "You kids want to get to the Right Arm? I'll lead you to them, but you're gonna owe me." With one great motion, Jorge yanked down a huge strap of material, it was looped together and attached to a thick black cord that spanned across the canyon. "Follow me!"
With that he was off. It was a zip line. It took him far away, the rattling of Wicked's chopper grew louder. I had no choice. This was our only hope.
"Alright!" Brenda boomed, pulling down more loops for the zip line. "Let's go! Come on!"
"Go go go, go go go!" Thomas urged us along with Brenda. He tapped pushed Minho to go next, which is exactly what he did.
"Go! Come on!" Brenda motioned for the rest of us to step up, a firm urgency to her tone. Frypan volunteered himself up with a gulp, his hands shaking around the loop.
Minho dove for the opportunity, holding fast on the sturdy loop. With a grunt, he was gone. Minho flew across the zip line, a whirring sound following him.
After Minho was Frypan of course, then Aris, Jeff, and Teresa and lastly Chuck. He was the most afraid. The facade of asserting his age as older was gone. What replaced him was a wide eyed trembling boy.
"Go on." I ordered pushing further towards the edge. "Hold on fast and strong, but you have to go now." After giving him a tight hug and placing a kiss on his cheek, I assured him one last time. "I'll be right behind you. I promise."
Then he was gone. Next I had to deal with Victor. The boy who wanted nothing more than to stay attached to my hip.
"Go." Putting the loop in his hand, he needed to go now. The person I cared least about was myself. I only wanted the people I cared about to be safe. "C'mon just go Victor." He stayed stuck in his place, keeping those coffee colored eyes locked with mine. "Don't tell me I'm gonna have to baby you like Chuck."
"You first." He motioned towards the horrifying depths. Brenda saved me from what he wanted.
"We don't have time for this, just fucking go!" She followed her demand with a great big shove, one that swooped Victor away. Brenda didn't give him a second thought. Instead, she glanced around, patting down her pockets before darting off to God knows where.
