Maya's POV

(Recap)

Lukas coughed at little, then tried so gasp, but he choked instead and fell back asleep. He wasn't dead!

I gasped, I knew what I had to do.

I inhaled as much air that I could fit into my lungs.

I lowered my head down over him.

I touched my lips to his, then exhaled as hard as I knew how to.

He jolted upward, almost bumping into my head. He coughed, then hyperventilated until he had enough air.

"Thank you, Maya," he said breathlessly. He coughed a little more. I smiled with tears in my eyes and hugged him tightly. It was the best feeling ever.

Aiden's POV

I told Katcha everything; how we had a survival hut, about Jeb, about Petra, and about what I had done to Jesse. She listened to it all and seemed deeply invested in what I was saying.

"Wow, you've been through a lot, haven't you?" she said when I was finished.

"Yeah, I guess so," I said.

"I guess so?! Aiden, your whole world is crashing down right in front of you, and all you have to say is," she mimicked my voice, "Yeah, I guess so."

"Wow, that sounds just like me," I said sarcastically.

"I'm here to help you, okay? I'm going to help you make things right," she said standing up, "Starting with that leg of yours. Drink one of those healing potions."

Without question, I got up and examined the potions sitting on a table.

"I'm not good with potions," I admitted, "How do I know if this one is a potion of healing or poison?"

"Um, drink the green one," she said.

I picked up the bottle with a green substance in it. I pulled off the top and was about to drink, when she exclaimed,

"NO NO NO! WAIT! The green one's poison! I just remembered!"

She startled me so I accidentally dropped the glass onto the floor.

"Gah!" I cried as a stepped back, then winced in pain because I accidentally used my broken leg.

"No, red is healing, or was it blue?" she contemplated.

"I'm just going to drink this red one and see what happens," I said. I pulled it off the shelf and drank.

My entire body buzzed, and I really shouldn't have had that whole thing at once. The buzzing moved down to my leg. I felt the pain in my leg release, like the tension on it dissipated.

"How's your leg?" Katcha asked. I stepped on it just to make sure.

"Good as new!" I exclaimed happily as I jumped up and down.

"Alright, now time to save Louie and Mia!" she said.

"Lukas and Maya," I corrected.

"Right, let's go!"

"Wait a minute," I said, "Carter locked the door behind him when he left. How are we supposed to get out?"

"Hmmm...," thought Katcha, "Got any bobby pins on you?"

I lifted an eyebrow.

"Right. Sorry."

Katcha thought some more.
