 Johnny's POV

  "Okay, well, I say we go now, since everyone's still in holding. I mean, Reed and I were locked up in there together. We know the whole layout." Lorna stated.

 "You want to hit Sentinel Services are you crazy?" Reed asked.

"Don't call me crazy."

"Ok everyone take-" Marcus started.

"She wants to launch an attack on the heels of what we just went through, with no way in. Which part of that doesn't sound crazy to you?" Reed went on.

"Hey. Okay, do I have to remind you that it's not just our people that are in there? They have your kids, too." Lorna agured.

"We saw men with guns cart away our kids while they cried for our help, so, no, you sure as hell don't." Caitlyn stated.

 "I'm not agreeing on a plan that puts them in more danger." Reed started to raise his voice as everyone started shouting at once.

 Slowly I could feel my anger rising as they all went on, till it all just exploded. "THAT'S ENOUGH!!" I slammed my fist down on a table, braking it. "There is no more "yours" or "ours". Andy and Lauren...Sonya, Clarice and Alex. They're all our people now." I tried to calm down as I said their names.

"Turning their jail cells into a shooting gallery hurts everyone." Reed stated.

"Maybe. But it's just a matter of time before Campbell gets his hands on them and turns them into Hounds. If that happens, this place is finished. It might already be finished." Lorna explained.

"There are people we can talk to." 

"What, we write our congressman and hope for the best? If we have to shed blood sooner or later, I vote for sooner." Lorna started to get more upset.

"That's our blood you're talking about. Some of us almost died the last time we tried something like this." Caitlyn stated.

"I know people in the courts, the government, even Sentinel Services." Reed remarked.

"Last time you tried that, we almost got killed." Lorna reminded them.

"Okay, it was your "low risk" assault that got us into this situation."

"Look guys!! The enemy is not in this room. We're all in this together. And we should set up some scouts at Sentinel Services and Trask. Maybe they can get eyes on our people." Marcos chimed in.

"Marcos is right we can send out Sage and Shatter. And also check in with our police contacts. We are gonna fight to get everyone home. But we need to remember, we're on the same side." I decided, all they were doing was yelling at eachother and we needed a plan.

Everyone left the room but Lorna and Marcos, "look, we need to hurry...or do you think we stand a chance if the turn Alex against us." Lorna looked at me.

I clinched my jaw and sighed, "honestly...no."

As they left the two new kids walked into the room, "is there a way we can help?" Bree asked as Martinus leaned up against the wall.

"You said you can feel people?" 

She giggled a little, "I can link to other people, feel what they feel. If I do that while the other person is injured I can get the same injury." she explained.

"Can you feel our people?"

"Kind of, I can feel how scared Lauren is..um I can tell you they are all alive...but.." she stopped and looked scared.
