Breaking Point (Short Version)

Bailey (2)

I didn't stop running until I could finally see the Hawthorne building, I need to find out what floor they keep the children on. I honestly worry about leaving Jason, but I know it will only get worse if I don't find Abbie quick. I walked around one side of the gate until I heard somebody yell "why couldn't I drive". I ran back to the side of the building, and looked into the dust that a car was creating 20 miles away. Some kid was running toward me.

"What do you think you're doing?" I shouted.

"Hopefully getting in" the boy yelled back.

"Well that makes for two of us."

"What are you doing here?"

"That's none of your business."

"Well I'm trying to help the rebellion."

"That's nice."

"It's the other guys in the car that are helping me, where's your help?"

"I don't need help."

"You do, how did you get all the way out here anyways?"

"I got two working legs, how did you manage the running?" I asked as I noted his legs, that are not built for a runner.

"I sat in the car until we got to 20 miles away."

Then I heard another boys voice behind me, I almost turned around and punched him. "What are you doing?!" It yelled.

"Be quiet!" The boy I was talking to yelled back.

"Are you part of the rebellion?" The other boy asked.

"Well I am now" I replied.

"My friends are in the car" the boy I was familiar with said while looking out and pointing to the car.

"Well I came by myself, I'm Callan by the way" the boy I didn't know stated.

"I'm Bailey, I came by myself too" I replied.

"I'm Andrew, I had to lead my friends here, they're all stuffed in the back with the weapons we need."

"What weapons?" I asked.

"The ones we will need to get through the barrier, and free the people" Andrew said.

"Well what did you all come for?" Callan asked, being all nosy like Andrew was.

"I came to stop being the parent of my cousin" Andrew explained.

"I have to save my family from itself, since my dad has been going insane" I said.

"Well I came because they took my parents and girlfriend, I have nothing left" Callan said looking out to the car.

"I guess we can all work together then, form an alliance and take them down together" I stated. "If it doesn't work this time, we could start a rebellion in our towns and meet up again to finally finish the break test."

"We packed extra weapons that you two can use to get through" Andrew offered.

"That wou..." Callan started to say, until something unanticipated happened and the gates slowly slid apart...
