Chapter 53

As Kathrine exited the restaurant, she bumped into the hooded man again. She quickly turned and raised the gun, but he was gone. She felt him this time, he had really been there, but where did he go? No one could be that fast, not even Paul. Kathrine again headed toward Hailey; the hooded man was nowhere to be seen.

A block down Hailey stood nervously at the corner. She looked like she had been waiting a while, and Kathrine felt guilty. Kathrine stuffed the gun into her purse, she didn't need that kind of attention. Hailey noticed Kathrine, and a wave of relief washed over her face. Kelly and John came running from behind Hailey, and soon the four of them were together again.

Kelly sniffed the air.

"I don't wanna know," Kelly said then grabbed John's arm before heading back toward the hotel.

"What?" Kathrine asked, confused.

"We can smell it on you," Hailey said, walking behind Kelly.

"What can we smell?" John asked, trying to join in.
