I see the cop car, pulling up right in front of me. They get out and approached me.
"You're the guy who reported the intellects?"
"Yes. Taylor Carter, Jordi Fitzgerald, and Luke Humphrey are all who's left. The other guys left a long time ago. Carter, the one in charge of this operation, shot and killed 7 of the 10 intellects. One, was shot and admitted here. Her father is Carter."
"And the rest?"
"In the cabin we've been staying at. Over by Harrison Lake."
"Alright we'll send backup to that location. First, we need to capture Carter." I show them the way through the front office. They stop at the front desk. "We'll need security at room..." He turns to me.
"2203"
"Room 2203." The secretary nods her head.
We continue walking until we reach Lexi's room. Taylor looks up from looking at Lexi and I immediately see his eyes go wide. He starts panicking and grabs the first thing he could, a knife from his meal.
"Get any closer and I will hurt her!" He shouts.
"Seems like this is the end of the road Taylor. No experiments for you, never." I say. He panics and throws the knife, almost hitting me, shattering the glass next to me.
"Sir, you are under arrest for kidnapping and for the murder of 7 people." They walk closer, handcuffing Taylor. They escort him out, one staying behind with me.
"So, are you legally here? Or did he smuggle you over the border too?"
"We are all over here illegally. Fake passport made for all of us."
"You know we have to bring you back."
"Thank goodness... I will happily do that, just as long as you transfer her to Seattle."
"We can do that. She is stable at the moment, so we can make arrangements to bring her to Seattle Children's for pediatric care." I nod and sit down next to her.
"Will you be handing us over the the US government? Or at least the 3 of them, since the lab and experiments are under the government."
"Yes. Why?"
"Because they took someone else... hid them in the Olympics."
"Sure can. Same person?"
"Yes. Thank you."
"Its our job." He walks out, and I am left alone with Lexi.
