[Adam's POV]

I breathed heavily as I ran down an ally in Atlanta, Georgia. I was being chased by guys with guns. Big guns. I glanced over my shoulder and saw that they were getting ready to fire. Oh man. I looked ahead and saw a chain linked fence. I reached it and scrambled up it. I went over the top, jumped down, and turned around. The guys with guns started climbing the fence. I yelled and ran ahead of me. I turned right and went up against the wall. My breathing was really heavy. I looked around the corner and saw that they weren't there. I sighed in relief. Then I saw a piece of paper on the side walk. I picked it up. It was a clue from Jasper. I read it

Adam,

Go to the airport and go to Maryland there you'll find your next clue. Do it or else.

Jasper

These aren't clues anymore. There demands. I groaned and walked to the airport. As I walked there I got a call from Anna on my cell phone. I answered.

"Hey Anna."

"Adam thank goodness you answered," She said. I could tell she was distressed. Anna continued, " one of our kids will be handicap meaning one will be born with one arm. And I'm sick. Adam I'm dying again. The brain tumor is back. I'm....I'm scared."

I stopped walking. I let that sink in. She's dying again?! I heard her crying over the phone.

"Anna. Honey. Please don't cry. How long.....how long do you have?"

"Until July. After their born. Adam I don't want to die!" Anna exclaimed

"Calm down. Everything will be fine. Just....." My voice trailed off. I thought about what I was going to say, "Look, I got another clue from Jasper but there turning into demands. And I just got chased by men with guns. I have to go. Love you!"

"Love you too," Anna replied.

I hung up the phone and sighed heavily as I continued walking.

[Anna's POV]

I sat in a chair in the back yard. It was a clear and sunny day. I stared at my stomach. The bump was getting slightly bigger. I thought about what Adam had said. He was getting chased by men with guns. I sighed and closed my eyes. I counted to ten and opened them to see Laura standing in front of me. I jumped and shouted.

"Oh sorry. I didn't mean to-"

"Laura where'd you come from?" I asked

She pointed to the back gate. We somehow got a fence put up in our back yard.

"I saw that you were sitting out back and I though I would visit. I also heard that you're dying again." She said as she sat down beside me.

How does she know that? I forced myself to swallow as a lump formed in my throat. Tears began to form in my eyes. She placed her arms around me and I started crying into her shoulder. After a few minuets I stopped and pulled away from her. My face was hot. Laura smiled at me.

"You're going to be okay, Anna. So what are you naming your kids?" She asked

"I hope so. And their names are Eliot and Jamie. Both boys and identical twins. Well one will have one arm but their still twins."

"That's cool. Well, I got to go. I'll be praying for you and Adam." Laura said as she went out.

I smiled. I'm glad to have friends like her. Then I prayed for Adam. I wonder how he's doing.

[Adam's POV]

I went out of the airport. I walked down the sidewalk and passed by people without being seen. Then a guy with blonde hair and wore all black attacked me and knocked me out.
