FINAL CONFRONTATION

Ace handed over the phone to Landon, who quickly answered.

In less than two minutes, the call was over with.

"Do we have an answer?" Ace asked hastily.

"Not yet. They say to give them more time," Landon replied.

Ace let out the breath he was holding, and reclined into his seat.

"How long are we going to wait?"

"I don't know, but I sure as hell don't want to wait around a hospital. Do you?"

"Nah. Maybe we could drive around or something."

And so they did. They drove around the private areas of the City where Landon still had access to, until it was morning.

They managed to find a secure, and isolated field to pack their car and rest.

Whilst resting, they both fell asleep, completely exhausted from the hectic night.

A call came into Landon's phone hours later, causing Ace to open his eyes.

His hand was going for the phone, when on its screen, he saw, "my love."
