Chapter Nineteen

Raikidan approached and looked at me expectantly. I pursed my lips in confusion. “What?”

“I said I wasn’t going to ask ‘til later. It’s later,” he stated.

“Don’t tell him.”

“Forget about it. It’s nothing,” I insisted.

“Don’t lie to me. You went nuts back there and scared that psychic to death. That’s definitely not nothing.”

I glared at him. “I don’t want to talk about it, okay, so lay off!”

Brushing him aside with my shoulder, I walked away and grabbed my discarded carbine and then pulled out my spare finger gun.

Raikidan followed a little ways behind as I slung my carbine over my shoulder. “You want to ask something else.”

“Why did you tell Seda to call you Laz?” he asked. “You told me to only call you Eira because it was your name.”

I didn’t look at him. “Ask a different question.”

Raikidan grabbed my arm and forced me to face him. “What are you hiding from me?”

Yanking my arm away from him, I moved my face closer to his and narrowed my eyes. “Everything.”

My visor snapped over my eyes, and I walked a little ways away from him, ignoring his confused look. “Aurora. Aurora, are you there?”

Static answered me.

My brow furrowed, and I called in again, receiving the same response. Something wasn’t right.

“I don’t like this,” Raikidan said.

I nodded and looked up at the team board. There were three of us left. Raikidan’s face and my face were up there, but where the image of Raynn’s last teammate should be, there was a black square. “It’s all too convenient.”

Raikidan looked at me. “You think Raynn is behind this?”

I spat on the ground. “No, I know he is. Rylan knows who this last enemy is, so that means Aurora and the others know now as well. Now that our focus is on this last member, they’ll do anything to make sure we don’t find out.”

“So, what do we do?”

I sighed. “The only thing we can do is search for him on our own until we can make contact with the others.”

He looked around. “Should we find a lookout?”

I shook my head. “There’s no point.”

He narrowed his eyes. “What do you know?”

I closed my eyes and sighed. Placing my hand on his back, I urged him to walk with me. It wouldn’t get us anywhere to stand around. “I can’t be certain, but I have a suspicion of who we’re dealing with.”

“Go on.”

“This enemy doesn’t appear on the scanners, but it’s obvious he’s moving. He doesn’t appear on a heat sense, although he’s living. I only know of one experiment that can avoid both of those types of detections.” I looked up at the team board. “If I’m right, his name is Chameleon.”

“Chameleon? As in the animal with color changing abilities?”

I looked up at him through my lashes. “Yep, except this guy doesn’t just change color. An assassin-type experiment, the makeup of his DNA allows him to fuse with just about any object, becoming undetectable. This maze is a playground for him. He can move anywhere without being detected as long as he’s attached.
