I push through an opening to see Sadie reaching through to me. I sigh in relief. This is almost over. A shapeshifter latching into my back jolts me out of my reverie. It's not over yet, far from it. Through my haze of exhaustion, I somehow manage to shake it off. Claws tear into my back, trying to drag me back into the crowd. I feel my blood pooling around me.
"Sadie..." I groan and reach out, in human form.
Out fingertips touch for a second before my chest sends a pulse of pain through me. What feels like fire rips through me from head to toe. I make an animalistic noise and arch my back. Then I fall, overcome by the crowd.
I close my eyes, succumbing to my exhaustion. The last thing I see is Sadie still reaching out to me before I'm swallowed by the press of bodies around me.
"Kara!"
