" Jose! But he's one of them!" I yell.
" I know, he wants to help us" Henry explains.
" How do we not know that he's spying on us so that the Kinetics would find us!" Ella growls.
" I never knew the Kinetics would destroy the world, they said they would liberate it not destroy it!" Jose explained.
" So they lied to you, your little friends lied to you" Shayna growls.
" They are not my friends" Jose begins to flare in anger.
" Well, why don't you get us out of here then?" Henry nods at my comment, he unlocks my cell.  Jose unlocks Ella and Shayna's they both exit looking at him with distrust.
" There's a boat by the dock, get on it as soon as we get out" Henry explains.
" Aren't you coming with us?" Ella asks.
" No, I'm sorry we have to stay" Henry says.
" Now go before they find out" Farah explains.
" Let's go" Ella says.
" Wait!  Head to New York!" Henry yells as we walk away.
" Why!" I yell.
" You'll find a better resistance there" Henry calls.
" Ok" We leave solitary.

Shayna stops halfway through the hallway, " There are guards coming".
" Ok, they're gone let's go" Shayna held my hand as we went through the empty hallway.
" Hey!" A guard yells.
Ella gestures an attack at the guard, he flings into a wall.
His eyes are wide, "She's a Kinetic! Spies!".
" Go!" Shayna yells
" What!" I yell.
"You're more in danger than me, so go!" Shayna insists.
" Goodbye, Shayna" Ella and I say.
" Bye" Shayna holds our hands.jes.
" Let's go" Ella grabbed my hand and dragged me towards the front entrance.
They're coming, Frankie, they will kill her, Kiera's voice rings in my head.
We exit the building, the dock is misty. I see the boat, it's gray exterior shines with dew.
Ella powers up the boat, we drive into the ocean.
We've done it, we've left.  But without Shayna. Why have we done that?
