Axton. How could I just leave him in the prison knowing what those monsters had done to him...what they would do to him?
They weren't the only monsters, I was too. I took off the Roulex disguise and threw it in the corner. I didn't want to have anything to do with them. Couldn't stomach the severed tail hanging off the back of the uniform.
I was free. But inside, I was still in prison. My heart and soul locked up with Axton's. I needed to see him. Tell him how I'd seen his sister in the afterlife or whatever that was and how she forgave him and Knox. That they weren't at fault for her death.
The water-ship hummed, shifting course.
"Why are we changing direction?" I scrubbed a hand over my face and stood.
My dad stepped back. "Looks like they're bringing us back to the prison."
I rushed to the controls, flipping switches, pushing buttons. "We can't go back." They'd kill my father and probably me too. I had to get us away from here.
