To murder or to escape (2) DRAFT

Chapter 17

Amy's POV

A small echoed beep startled us. It's my phone. I cleverly hid it so the security guards wouldn't find it. Idiots.

I pick up my phone and see a text from Gary. This could be very very bad.
(Italics are texts)

Where are you? - Gary

I'm with the others. In the truck. Amy

Vira said you helped them, are you or are you not on my side? Gary

I am. Who said I'm in the back with them? Amy

Oh. Well then good work. I'll see you soon Gary

Soon? Where? They haven't told me where we're going Amy.

Idiots. Your heading to the airport. You will then get on a flight while they are in luggage and fly to Melbourne where I will meet you. By the way, Australia is part of its own war. Western Australia is on our side while the other states disagree. The prime minister has declared them seperate from Australia for betrayal. Gary

Oh ok. Cool. Thanks. Amy

I give my phone to Jaz Maddy and dr jones to read the texts. Their faces say a lot.

"Wow. The guy has allies." Maddy says.

"Unfortunately yes." I mumble.

"So what do we do?" Dr jones asks. "We can't just sit here and wait to be shipped to Melbourne. or flew."

"Yes. That's exactly what we do. Because then, I'll find out what's going on. Details I mean and what's going to happen." I explain.

"Yeah, that's a good idea. That's our new plan. We wait in this god damn truck." Jaz says. No one states how risky it is.

Later, much later, I check the time on my phone and realise it's like, ten at night. I lay down and yawn.

"Night guys." I say yawning again. I hear the others shift and lay down. They all say good night and drift off to sleep.

I follow shortly, thinking of the coming war. No matter what, we can't let it happen.
