The jets are fast, but not fast enough to hit each of us at once. We have the darkness of the night on our side, and we heard them coming early enough to bolt from our position. Unfortunately, some of the envoys were killed, but I saw Binzen and Izzo escaping just in time. Kharo and Helios have taken Alicia closer to the river. Maur and I are trying to figure out how to get across to the river as well. We’re hidden behind a cluster of obsidian boulders, but we can see the Kreek brothers and Jewel zigzagging in different directions to keep the jets busy and split-up.

My heart is racing, but I saw Dahlen running after Cynthia. What happened in Sapphire City finally awakened the side of him we’d been trying to nurture for so long. He’ll take her to safety. Maur and I just need to survive this attack and figure out the next steps.

“Dammit, Kai, they knew we were meeting here!” Maur hisses as one of the jets flies above us. We’re wedged between the obsidian chunks, though. They can’t see us. “They targeted us, specifically.”

“Retaliation for Cynthia’s escape,” I reply.

“Who the fuck told them? Only those of us present knew.”

“I’m not sure, but we’ll have to question everyone. We have to survive first,” I tell my brother. “Thoughts?”

Maur looks out, a grin slitting his face. “Jewel is about to change the game here.”

“What do you mean?”

I poke my head out and follow his gaze to see Jewel quickly climbing atop a tall obsidian rock, agile as a black-tailed deer just as a jet approaches her at a low altitude. The pilot knows he cannot hurt her, so he’s not gunning for her. He’s gunning for the Kreek brothers who are running in the opposite direction, while the other jets fly out and circle back to focus on them as well.

“Oh, shit,” I hear myself whisper as Jewel aims what looks like a slingshot at one of the jets.

I remember her telling us at one point that what we call jets are nothing like the jets on Earth. These are slow, and they’re old. But a small bomb in a slingshot? Doesn’t seem logical.

Maur laughs as we watch her take careful aim at the low-flying plane, waiting for it to fly closer to her. When it’s within range, she fires the bomb, leading the plane just enough that it hits dead center. The plane wobbles in the air as the pilot loses control. It slams into the rocks and explodes in a fiery ball.
