What had felt like an endless search through out the forest, minutes ago, now didn't matter as he reached his destination.
Max had finally found the hide out, where they were possibly keeping Kate. Deep down in his heart, he believed that she was still alive.
He held onto that strongly.
From where he was hiding, he watched carefully as Dr Brown dragged a body along with him. He couldn't tell who it might be, but his appearance convinced Max that he was close to saving his friend.
Like a predator he crept up on an occupied Dr Brown, pulling out his knife from one of his pockets. He fixed his grip on the knife, the closer he got.
The moment he was close enough, he launched forward and stabbed the doctor from behind.
The doctor fell with a groan, the impact proving to be powerful. The doctor had no time to react when Max pulled out the knife and struck him again, but on a different part of the body.
