Lillian

Chapter 13

The bus started to move and pick up the pace by 11 o'clock. I sat in my seat wondering what would happen when we get to town. All I did was went to sleep again and get ready for all the possibilities that could happen.

Screaming people and gunshots are not the way I wanted to end my naptime, but it did. All I saw were people jumping off and getting killed. Some guys were making their way back to the back seats and I had to do something. I grabbed my gun, May, Clara, and Riley and we made our way outside the bus without getting shot.

"Oh my god Riley! Honey are you alright?" Clara shouted as we ran through the cornfields that were still part of the Peachefare's.

I had to get home! I had to get home! Never in my life did I ever think that I was so powerful and thankful to God that I'm alive. Everyone that was still alive regrouped in the middle of the cornfield. I saw Aunt Sarah in the middle and of course May, Clara, and Riley at my side. Where's Zac? He did leave early from the bus, right? No! I yelled as I looked through the Murky Prison which was right beside the Peachefare's. It was Zac in the window, handcuffed and tied to a seat just like all the others that were taken captive.

I didn't know what to do. I had to go save Zac. I never really told him that I loved him, but now I wanted to shout it from the rooftops! Zac was meant for me and he wasn't gonna die now. I knew that someway and somehow I would get him out of this mess or he would get out, but I would at least have to try.

"I'm going to go get Zac!" I yelled as I made my way to the gate and I started to climb over.

"No Lilly!" Riley and May screamed at me in unison as guards started towards me.

I had my gun ready to go. I pulled it out and shot a few of them dead. I started to run, but I didn't know where to run. I made it to the back of the Headquarters as many guards soon attacked me and threw me into a cell.

All I saw was Clara throwing Riley and May down into the ground as they crawled and ran off. Trust me I wanted to be with them. Why did I jump over the gate? I should've just snuck in at midnight or later and had a plan.

Now, I am alone in a glass cell. I look across the hallway to see Zac sitting in his cell and looking down. He looks depressed. He looks up. He sees me. Our eyes meet. We are both thinking the same thing. "Why?"

Now all we have to do is break out and talk to each other about our feelings.
