Escape and Evade 9

Chapter 9



Max stood surrounded by at least twenty men with fully automatic weapons pointed at her ready to fire. She just stood there with her hands at her side...waiting. She looked around at all the men surrounding her like she was ready to attack them. That was how she wanted them, on edge. Her thoughts didn't linger long on the guards but to Alec.



God, I wonder what they've done to him? Is he okay? Is he even still alive? I just want him to be okay...please...

"Nice to see you again 452, " White said walking up the ramp to Max. She looked him up and down. He wasn't dressed in his usual attire. The suit and tie was replaced with a jump suit. She met his eyes and gave him an icy stare.



"I wanna see Alec, he she said protectively.



White raised his eyebrows and started to circle her, "I don't think...you want to see him at the moment. He's a little...beaten up."



Max felt the rage building inside her. She didn't move just continued to stare strait ahead as he circled her. "I swear to God if you've done...."



"...he'll live...just like any of your transgenic kind, " White interrupted.



"You better hope so or I'll make sure you die a slow and painful death instead of a quick one, " Max shot back angrily. She knew she shouldn't let her emotions show, but she didn't know where all the protectiveness for Alec was coming from but she couldn't stop it.



She felt him step up behind her and she quickly turned to meet him head on. He leered down at her as she stared up at him.



"I wanna see him...now, " she demanded.



He sneered down at her, "You'll see him soon enough 452."



She titled her head up at him, "I don't think you heard me clearly, see..." she turned and walked a few feet away with guns still trained on her. She turned back to face him with her arms crossed over her chest, "...if I'm not out of here in six hours with Alec I die." She was strait faced and serious when she said it.



White narrowed his eyes, "Oh really."



"I've got a deadly poison going through my system right now. If I don't get that antidote in six hours I'll be dead. Now I don't think you want that do you. Think about how pissed off your superiors will be if someone you're supposed to bring in alive for testing and experimenting all the sudden just fell dead...on your watch?"



White looked at her menacingly. He could tell she wasn't bluffing. He knew enough about her to know she would risk her own life for her own kind especially Alec. "Six hours huh?" he asked circling her again.



"That's right, " she clarified.



He came to a stop in front of her, closely, "I want proof before I let you leave."



"Fine, " she said staring up at him. "But don't think you're going to be able to cure me before I go. It's a very picky thing." She saw his jaw clench and wanted to laugh but knew better.



"Take her to medical, " White ordered backing away from her. "I'll see you in an hour 452...be ready." With that he turned and walked away leaving her.

Why did you come back here Max?



Alec stared at the floor at his feet wondering what was going on outside his cell. It had been at least an hour since Otto came into his cell and said Max had turned herself in.



Maybe it was a trick to make me crack...



Alec closed his eyes and leaned his head back. He tried to sleep on numerous occasions but he was too hyped up and too much adrenaline was pumping through his system to let him even rest. He rested his head on his arm and tried to let sleep take him. Maybe then he wouldn't feel the pain as much.

Logan looked down at his watch...two hours had gone by.



"Don't worry Logan she'll be back in time, with Alec, " Cindy said pacing.



"What if she's not back in time? What if something goes wrong...again?" Logan asked turning to face her.



Cindy stopped her pacing and faced him. "Look, if I got the 411 on this White guy about Max he ain't gonna let my boo die. She to important for him and those funky Familiars he with, " she explained.



"But that doesn't cover Alec's ass, " Logan stated.



"Max ain't gonna let nothin happen to Alec, " Cindy said a little to persistently.



Logan looked at her carefully as she avoided his gaze. He was about to say something when the front door to his apartment opened. He and Cindy turned to see Asha and Sam, Max's doctor walk into view. "Did you get it?" Logan asked quickly walking over to them.



"I got it right here, " Sam said pulling out the vile of blue formula. "I did some testing before I came back. Since Max is a transgenic her system may be able to fight it off longer than six hours but I'm not for sure. So if she doesn't make it back here in six hours I wouldn't get worried till about seven or eight hours."



"Is that somethin you can just make another batch of if you can find out what kind of poison it is?" Cindy asked putting her hands in her back pockets.



Sam chuckled, "No, this is a newly developed poison that is specifically designed to mutate in every different host. The cure or vaccine is different for every person according to their genetics and antibody structures. Even if White is able to find out what kind of poison it is. It would most certainly take him more than six hours to find her specific cure."



"Now all we can do is wait, " Asha said crossing her arms over her chest.
