But I didn’t leave the med ward after Dr. Rharr finished with me. True to my word, I stayed by Finn’s side. He slept fitfully, moaning and occasionally thrashing in his sleep.

Emma, on the other hand, hadn’t moved. She slept like the dead.

“Is that normal?” I asked the nurse. “Are they both really okay?”

She nodded. “We gave them each something to further flush the lead out. They’re just working the toxins out of their systems. They should wake up soon.”

I grabbed Finn’s hand and waited. Whatever lay in front of us, we would face it together. I fretted, wondering where the vials were and if the lab workers had already isolated the antidote. I wondered if my mother was still alive. They would tell me if she wasn’t, wouldn’t they?

Wouldn’t they?

My thoughts skidded away from the question, landing instead on the topic of Althea Remington. Where was she? Were they interrogating her? Torturing her?

Or was something else altogether going on?

I laid my head back against the chair, my eyes growing heavy. Even though I had a million questions, my adrenaline had spiked, and now I was crashing. The exhaustion was winning. I closed my eyes, letting my mind drift. At least Nicole was with them, I reasoned. At least I hoped she was still with them.

I must’ve drifted off for a few minutes because the next thing I knew, someone was shaking me awake. “Hanover.”

I snapped my eyes open and was met with Finn’s glorious face in mine. I rubbed my eyes, trying to wake up. “You look so much better.” His color had returned, and his eyes were no longer glassy.

I sat up. “Is Emma awake?”

He shook his head. “Not yet.”

His IV had been removed. Its plastic line dangled haphazardly from the machine. “I’m guessing you’re discharging yourself?”

He slid his sneakers on and laced them up. “Let’s get out of here before Dr. Rharr comes back and raises holy hell.”

“Are you sure you feel good enough to be doing this?”

“I’m fine.” He winced when he sat back up, but I knew there was no arguing with him.

“What about Emma?”

“She’ll be fine. She’s still sleeping it off.” He held his hand out for me. “C’mon. Let’s go find out what, if anything, they’ve done with the antidote.”

And Althea Remington, I reminded him.

He snorted. “Yeah, and her too.”

We headed down the hallway, hand in hand, not making eye contact with any of the base personnel. If they had questions, they could ask someone else.

“Not only does Althea know what I can do, she’s seen it up close and personal.” I kept my voice low. “She had me direct the antidote vapors into your nostrils.”

He winced. “That’s not good.”

“And I sort of very stupidly admitted that I was the one who killed her favorite pet soldier.”

He groaned. “That’s really not good. What were you thinking?”

I sighed. “I don’t know. I guess I just wanted her to know that she’s not the only one with power. I might just be a kid, but I can hurt her.
