Let's go home

"It's time that I fulfil my part of the bargain, "General Song said. He stared at her and added, "Please come with me." 

Zoe stared at him for a while but then she followed him out. For some reason, her heart was beating loudly in her ribcage. It was as if it could come out at any moment. She felt a bit of shakiness in her legs with every step she took. She was having this feeling that something unexpected would happen to her. She didn't know if she wanted some time to prepare herself or if she was ready to face whatever it was. 

As she exited the hospital building, several helicopters landed in front of her eyes. The men in a familiar black uniform descended and stood in a circle around one helicopter and a few moments later, a tall man in a three-piece suit descended and she sucked in a breath. 

Tears pooled in the corner of her eyes and she clenched her hands in an attempt to stop herself from breaking into sobs.
