CHAPTER 24: McBrid

AS SOON AS MCBRID left the lab, he went to the barracks to find Charlie. The young Guard was stretched out on a cot, sleeping. “Charlie.” The Guard only snuffled in his sleep. Guards should never sleep this soundly. It wasn’t safe. He shook the kid’s shoulder. “Charlie, wake up.”

The Guard groaned and opened his eyes. As soon as he realized who was there, he sat up. “McBrid, what’s wrong? Is Louis okay?”

“Yeah.” He patted Charlie’s shoulder. “Your brother is fine, but I’m changing your schedule.”

“What? No.” He glanced away. “Sorry. Whatever you say, sir.”

McBrid’s jaw clenched. The kid should be allowed to say what was on his mind but Guards were expected to have no opinion—just blind obedience. “You can’t be around Fersia anymore, not alone.”

Charlie looked down at his feet, his shoulders sagging but he nodded.

“She’s changing, Charlie. It isn’t safe.”

The Guard’s head snapped up. “Are you sure? You said...You thought she was immune.”

“I did think that.” Hoped was more accurate. “But when we had dinner...well, she’s changing.”

“She’ll be extra scared.” Charlie’s big, brown eyes pleaded with him. “Can’t I stay with her while she’s sick?”

“It’s too risky.” He sat on the empty cot across from the Guard. “She isn’t following the usual process, at least she hasn’t been. It isn’t safe for you to be alone with her until we know how she’s going to change.” He stood. “I don’t want anything to happen to you.”

It didn’t matter what he wanted though because eventually bad things happened to all the Guards on Level Five. He needed to figure out a way to get the kid and his brother away from here.
