The crew trudged along towards the next town for a long time. Isla appeared on her deathbed, but still she kept up the vigorous pace. Floyd himself was starting to feel tired. Months in the lab had damaged his once healthy physique.

"C-Could we stop-?" he panted. He told himself he wanted to appear tired so they would stop and rest their clearly innate body, but in truth, he was feeling a little worse for wear too.

Isla stopped. She glanced back at him and ran a hand through her hair. "What? You- t-tired?"

"No-" He couldn't stop a retort at the condescending tone in her voice.

But Isla was already sitting down, resting against a tree. Floyd, after a moment of hesitation, followed suit.

"Alright lemme test..." I heard my voice crackle over the walkie talkie. "Aha!" A reporter's voice rang out. "The greatest minds in the nation- scratch that, the world- are trying to find a way to stop this time of chaos, but none are sure how!"

Floyd listened intently. "Huh? Did something happen, Zuzu? I hear a person's voice..."

Isla took a drink of water from a bottle that had not been on her person previously.

"I got the radio on the right frequency. It looks like our theory was right, Zhao's gone crazy and is destroying everything."

Floyd stiffened. Isla continued sipping her water. "So... everywhere? There are villages like that?"

Floyd's throat went dry.

Isla dropped her water bottle and the water spilled across the ground, soaking into the reddish earth, causing a pool of red...

"O-Okay..." Floyd dropped the walkie talkie.

He and Isla exchanged glances.

Then they tossed him a new bottle of water. He looked down at it.

"Drink it," they said quietly. "We have a long journey ahead of us."

"Good luck." With that I went silent and continued work.

Floyd took it. He drank his fill, wiped his mouth and slipped it into his pack. "Thanks," he mumbled to Isla, a little prickle of shame rising up. He, out of everyone, should know that you couldn't judge a book by its cover.

Isla shrugged and began drawing patterns in the mud, making little swirling motions.

Once I had tried everything I could with the radio, I studied the map for the nearest place that was specified to be safe. "Hey Isla, can you read a map?"

Isla scoffed. "What do you think?"

"Yes," Floyd said quietly through the phone. Isla glared at him.

"Good. There'll be one in the front pocket of Floyds bag. I'm gonna go ahead to Toro City to warn the scientists about Zhao. We can rendezvous to the west of there at what should be marked as Tulip Village. If all goes well, I should have a plan by then."

"When did you go through my bag?" Floyd asked, as if it finally occurred to him.

"When you were asleep, dumbass," she grumbled, removing it. "I'm pretty sure the Scientists know by now. In fact, I'm pretty sure they knew from the beginning."

"I know, but I doubt they know the source of his powers. If they knew about the testing, we would have been freed ages ago. But we weren't. Also, I put some stuff in your bag for just in case. Check the hidden flap in the second largest pocket, there'll be medical supplies."

"Freed ages ago?" Isla dropped the map and laughed bitterly. "You're deluding yourself."

"Don't say that-" Floyd began.

"People don't care about us. We're the runoff of society. The trash. How do you think they didn't find us? Kids disappearing from all over? A boy driving to a lab and disappearing? No investigations? No escapes?"

"A sensible idea." Isla tossed her head back and tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear. "At last."

With that I turned off my walkie talkie and started running.
