      "Their getting away! All forces deploy. Repeat all forces deploy. The 11 subjects are getting away!" Agent Walker yelled in her walking talking as she move though the crowd of screaming kids.
     Barton raised his badge in the air as he tries to weave though the kids.

      In the crowd, Lucas was getting bumped left and right. Too many people were bumping him all at once, he couldn't tell where he was going. Suddenly a hand grabbed him steering him towards the right, he thinks.
"I got you Lucas, let's hurry." The voice of Cassie says.
Relaxing a little, Lucas let her lead him. Usually he doesn't like it when people try to steer him, due to being bumped into many walls. But now was the perfect timing.
Cassie pushes her way towards the back exit of the school she saw yesterday. She didn't know what is going on. But a very scary thought pushed into her mind, they know she's a wereanimal. But how in all night skies would they know?! And why were all those other people in the same room as her? Once getting out the door, Cassie saw the same people who were in the room heading towards the woods. Following their lead, Cassie headed towards the woods.

Feral took off running. She punched though the pile of kids as she exited the school, running towards the woods. Those people worked for the government. No doubt about it. After putting that collar on Nova it just gave it away.
A thought popped into Feral's head. If that 'doctor' put that collar on Nova that must mean... And the other kids were in the same room as her, the agents must know more than Feral does.
       Out of the corner of her eye, Feral spots Kaito and Evelyn running. Running at top speed, Feral easily catches up with the two.
      "Follow me! They know your secrets!" Feral says, making the two look at her in fear.
       "W-What do you mean?!" Evelyn cried, looking straight at Feral.
      "We're all wereanimals." Feral explained, Kaito stopping in his tracks.
       "Don't Stop! Run!" Feral Yells grabbing Evelyn and Kaito, dragging them into the forest.

Peter stayed with Nova as the two emerge from the doors of the school. By now kids were screaming about the agents, and black vans had pulled onto the only road that connected to the school.
These new agents were shooting darts at everyone, using the same darts as Walker and Barton were. Peter's worse fears were coming true, maybe. These darts could be poisonous for all he knows!
Behind him, Nova, who shook off Peter's hand was following him. The metal thing around her neck was so weird to Peter.
It looked like it was made out of iron, flashing buttons and switches cover the thing. And a large orange button was flashing repeatedly.
Nova took the lead, running into the woods near the north end of the school. Peter followed her as agents in black suits shoot darts at them.
A hand suddenly grabs Nova dragging her right behind a boulder. Not enough time to stop himself, Peter followed the same fate as Nova as the same hand grabs him.
A dark crack that is not visible to the naked eye, leading into a larger hole. A hand clamped over Peter's and Nova's mouths.
"Shh.. They are close." Zach whispered.
The rustle Of leafs started heading towards the three kids. The noise maker emerged to a visible spot, 3 men in Black carrying gun like weapons. Probably dart guns. Peter's heart jumped when the men started to talk.
"Are you sure the two went this way?" The first agent asked, lowing his weapon.
"Of course I'm sure! The white hair one definitely went this way!" The second agent snapped.
"Guys settle down. The tracker says the girl is close. Very close." The third agent says, holding a remote like device.
A chill ran down Peter's spine. His thoughts were twirling with confusion. How could they be tracking Nova?
The agents started to look around, weapons drawn. Checking the bushes, trees, even small holes.
A movement behind Peter made him to look at Zach. In his hand a walkie talkie was presented.
"Where you get that?" Peter whispered.
"The one of the people in black dropped it. Let's see if... There!" Zach whispered, turning a few knobs until a crackling sound came from it.
Suddenly the first agent took out his own walkie talkie, bringing it up to his ear he began to talk.
"Hello? This is NOT a good time to talk Frank!" The agent snapped.
"Oh! Then I don't suppose you didn't want me to tell you the news!" Zach said into the walkie talkie.
"What news? And what is wrong with your voice?" The agent replied.
"Cah, does it matter now?! Two of the targets have been spotted near the school and we need you Now!" Zach coughs into the walkie talkie.
"Ok we are on our way." The agent says putting down his walkie talkie. Turning to the other two he said, "come on! You heard Frank!" And with that, the agents left.
"Ok we should be good for now." Zach said
"And how do you know that?" Nova asked.
"Guessing??" Zach says.
"What should we do now?" Peter asked.
"Not sit here, that's for sure." Nova says moving towards the exit of the crack.
"We should probably get that collar off first." Zach informs, pointing at it.
Looking down at it, Nova nods her head.
"Yeah, this thing is killing me."

Quinn didn't have time to think. One moment everything was kinda fine, She was in the room and then a dart gun was pulled up. Next things next, the fire alarm went off and she was being chased by a two people in black. Both carrying the same guns like 'dr' Walker was.
Leaping over a rock, Quinn took a chance to look back. A dart went wizzing by her face, making her run even faster.
"STOP! Come back here!" An agent says behind Quinn.
Jumping up high, Quinn grabbed a loose branch from a tree. Bringing it with her a bit, Quinn let's go Of the branch.
Looking back, the branch flies backwards hitting one of the agents square in the mouth.
The second agent wasn't lucky either, being hit by his partner he flies back. In his hand, the gun went off letting lose a dart.
A sudden pain spring into Quinn's neck. Her hand loosely grabs a dart. Tripping over a rock, Quinn fumbles down to the right. Her mind was getting sleepy. Trying to stand up straight, Quinn don't notice where she was. Taking a step back for support, Quinn's foot only hit air.
Falling back, Quinn's sleepy body fell down a cliff. No sound came out of here as she hits a rock. Rolling down, hitting debris left and right.
Splash!
Cold water surrounded Quinn as she takes head first into the water. Fighting to stay awake, Quinn bobbed to the surface. Gasping for air, she could feel herself falling asleep. With what strength she had, Quinn numbly swam to the edge of the river. Her eyes were failing her as she laid against the river bank.

       Lilian's plan worked. Kinda. The fire alarm gave a great distraction, but it even distracted her. A hand grabbed Lilian and smashes her against the wall.
     Behind her, Lilian heard Jax yell. But his yell was lost as Lilian was twisted around to face a muscular woman in a black uniform.
      Lifting up only by the neck, Lilian struggled. Her eyes squinted open looking at her attacker.
     The woman was tall, a scar ran from the corner of her left ear right down to the center of her chin.
     A chair came crashing down upon the woman's head. Landing on the floor, a hand was offered to Lilian. Looking up Mr. Green smiled down at her.
"No one hurts my students. Now you must run." He says.
Catching her breath Lilian nods. Taking off she spots Jax, who was being attacked by more people in black suits. Taking a fire extinguisher from the wall, Lilian jogs over. Spraying the agents from behind as a distraction Lilian didn't notice the agent behind her.
Metal handcuffs were quickly put on Lilian. Dropping the fire extinguisher, Lilian stomps on the agents foot. Roaring out in pain, Lilian is let go and run towards Jax. With both her hands behind her back, Lilian curses under her breath.
       "Let's Go!" Jax Yells starting to take off.
        Nodding Lilian runs after Jax, into the woods and far away from the agents. Or so she hopes.
