CHAPTER ELEVEN

KIYA

“I consider myself an adventurous woman, but please tell me you know how to fly this thing?” Kiya gasped out, as she snapped the last of the seat belt buckles into place and scanned the interior of the invisible helicopter with trepidation.

Anna finished buckling and swiveled to face Kiya before she said, “Of course I do!” Mumbling under her breath, she flipped on several switches and as the helicopter lifted into the air she added, “In simulation.”

“What! Holy shit! This was your bright idea for escape? What were you thinking?” blurted Kiya, as she grabbed her harness in desperation.

Anna looked over at her and laughed. “Like that will help you. Anyone ever tell you to go loosey goosey when you’re in an accident? Tensing up like that will only cause more injuries,” Anna warned with a wink, turning her attention to the craft before she added, “Seriously. I know what I’m doing. I could do this in my sleep and probably have. How do you think they train new pilots in the military? I stole a version of their training program years ago and, trust me, I’m better than Maverick in the Top Gun movies. I should be considered among the elite and feel like I could pilot any craft ever made in history.”

“Somehow your words don’t instill in me the confidence I think you were hoping for. Top Dog in a video game doesn’t equate in real life, Anna. Why don’t you bring us back down carefully and we’ll head to the nearest airport?” Kiya bit out nervously.

“Honestly, your lack of faith in me is insulting. Have I done anything in the last minute to indicate you’re in any kind of danger?” questioned Anna, looking over at Kiya like a disappointed dog. Anna wiggled her eyebrows and stuck out her tongue before she laughed and said, “I promise I will get you to Washington in one piece, in less than the time it will take for you to find an Uber to take you to the closest airport. Especially considering traffic in the DC area. What do you say?”

Kiya took in a deep breath and considered her options. Not willing to risk missing the deadline to save her grandmother, she shook her head and mumbled, “I’m placing my life in your hands and considering I’m supposed to save the world...I guess that means you as well.”

“What do you mean save the world? Save the world from the god you woke up?” questioned Anna, tightening her fingers on the yoke as she furrowed her brows with concern.

“I don’t believe he’s a god. Th’ael might want us to think he is, but I believe he’s from another world with powers beyond our own and somehow I’m supposed to stop him,” explained Kiya, wringing her hands together nervously.

“Why do you think you’re supposed to stop him? Is that the reason he tried to have you kidnapped? Did you do something to piss him off? I mean, I thought Aarik was the
