Episode 26

Cali’s Pov:
Luckily, the ceilings and walls didn’t fall on Diane and I, but it did to the guards coming from all directions.
They collapsed together with them.
My powers….
I could feel them. They’re back.
“Cali….” Diane called weakly and I looked at her to see she’d transformed to her real self.
I checked the injury and discovered she was shot on the side of her tummy.
Oh God!
“Hey; you’ll be fine, okay? You’ll be fine. Come on” I said and lifted her up along with me.
She groaned and held the bleeding part and it hurt me so much.
I threw my hand over her shoulders and supported her and we started trudging together.
We walked as fast as we could
Diane pointing out directions to me.
G0sh! I just prayed she was sure.
The institute was quite big.
Suddenly, we heard more gun shots and rolled to the floor.
“Urgh!” Diane groaned and held her tummy and I crawled to where she was.
Luckily, I spotted an elevator right in front of us.
“Diane; Diane;” I tapped her.
“You need to hold on tight, okay? There’s an elevator and I’m reaching for it”.
She just nodded and I looked back at the guards who were fast approaching.
With a full force, I dragged Diane on her feet and ran towards the elevator.
The gun shots came with a mighty force, but I didn’t let it stop me as I screamed and finally jumped in with Diane.
I pressed the button for the second floor and the door closed up immediately, just at the right time.
“Oh my God!” I heard Diane grumble and turned to see her leaning back against the wall with her eyes on the floor.
I ran and knelt in front of her immediately.
“Just hold on, Diane. We’ll be out of here before you know it”I said reassuringly as I stroke her hair.
God! Please, help us get out of here.
My heart beat rapidly as the elevator kept moving and I wondered who we were gonna face out there once it landed.
Suddenly, a question flashed through my mind and I looked at Diane.
“Diane” I called, my voice coming out more cold now.
“How’s Miquel? Is….Is he safe?”
Although, she’d been weak, but I could tell she got weaker when I asked that question.
She didn’t say a word but just looked at me.
“Diane?” I called again
“Wh….What’s wrong? Where’s Miquel?”
She took in a deep breath.
“I don’t know, Cali. We couldn’t find him during the course of the mission. We have no idea what happened to him” she replied and I heard a loud bang in my head
A blaring sound cane driving in that it affected my heart.
Miquel? What happened to him?
No.
The elevator door opened immediately and Mykel’s words came driving in at the same time:
*He’s never coming back. He’s gone*
No!
No!!
That’s a lie.
Tears built up in my eyes, I’d forgotten the elevator was open.
“Cali” Diane jolted me out of my rueful thoughts and I looked at her.
“You should leave without me. I’m only slowing you down. Go on” she said and I scoffed out tears.
“What’re you saying?” I asked, holding her hair.
We heard running footsteps and I turned to see some guards running towards us.
“Cali…” She called and I looked at her.
“You came here to save me, Diane. And if we’re leaving, we leave together” I told her and stood on my feet afterwards.
I faced the direction of the armed guards and pointing my hands towards them, I let out a loud scream.
They tried aiming their guns at me, but the effect of my scream got to them first and swept them off their feet.
I ran back to Diane and helped her from the floor.
“Come on” I mumbled and started walking out with her.
We got out of the elevator, used an exit that we saw and came out to an open field.
Oh God!
How do we leave? The walls were soo tall and looked electrified and clearly, there was no way one could climb out of it.
And the gates….that was totally out of point.
The area looked dark and quiet and I bet not everyone had been alerted of my absence.
Suddenly, an idea popped into my head.
I quickly made Diane sit on the floor, then faced the wall.
Oh God! This might be the height of it.
Can I break such walls?
I took in a deep breath and pointed my hands towards the wall and immediately, let out a mighty scream.
“Arghggghhhhhhhh!”
It was so loud, I could feel my lungs ache.
But all of it didn’t matter as I found the walls crumble right in front of my very eyes.
It fell apart!!!
And there was an open space to the other side.
Oh my God!! It worked!!!
I gasped and looked at Diane and she had a weak smile on her face.
This was more than victorious.
“We did it, Diane. We’ll be out of here” I smiled happily to her and quickly helped her from the floor. .
She held onto me as usual for support and without further hesitation, we ran out through the broken space.
Oh God! I just hope they don’t come after us.
I continued running with her, struggling with the dark bushes and grasses. I didn’t even know where I was headed. The entire place was just dark.
“Hold onto me, Diane. Please” I pleaded as could feel her grip becoming too weak.
“We’re almost there” I panted.
How do we even get out of here? Where could we get a cab? Or someone?
We continued running, but suddenly, she fell off my shoulders and landed on the floor.
“Diane!” I called out and rushed to her.
Oh my God!
“I’m sorry, Cali. But I can’t make it. I can’t walk anymore. You’ll just have to go on without me” she said weakly and in faint breaths.
“No, Diane. I’m not leaving you. I’m not leaving you, okay? We’re in this together” I stated ruefully, tears streaming down my cheeks.
“Please Diane. Just hold on a little bit longer’.
She shook her head and didn’t say a word and I busted into more tears.
“I….I know what to do” I suddenly said.
“Just….stay here, okay? I’ll go get some help.
“Please, Diane. Stay here, I beg you. Keep your eyes open. I’ll be back, okay?” I told her and she nodded.
I sniffed and stood up and immediately, began running as fast as I could.
My heart was aching so bad.
First, Mykel’s brutal treatment towards me. And Diane being shot. And getting to know Miquel was missing.
Oh God! What’s happening to me?
I wept profusely and finally, I spotted the road.
“Oh my!” I panted heavily.
I found it!
I found the road!
Oh my God!
I saw a car coming at a cr@zy speed and without hesitation, I ran to the side of the road and started jumping and waving at it to stop.
God! Please, please. Just make him stop.
Tears rolled down to my neck and for Christ sake, the car stopped right in front of me.
Yes!
I whimpered and ran towards it but my eyes dimmed when I saw the driver – a familiar face that stepped out of the car.
Oh my God!
“Miquel?” I called in shock, my eyes beaming.
“Cali?” He also called in deep breaths.
No;
Please, don’t tell me I’m dreaming.
