Chapter 222

The address turns out to be a large abandoned factory.

It’s hard to tell what might have once been made here. The dusty, spider web covered monolithic machines cast strange shadows beyond the meager beam of my flashlight.

Tobin’s appointed time comes and goes, and at first I think by making me wait, it’s probably just another way he’s messing with me.

But when I message Aaron, he doesn’t reply.

I call him, but he doesn’t answer.

I try not to worry as I call James.

He also doesn’t answer.

And now I’m starting to panic.

Why isn’t Tobin here like he said he’d be.

And why the he ll aren’t Aaron and James answering their phones?

I have this bad feeling in my gut that we missed something.

That our plan wasn’t quite as watertight as we intended it to

be.

Just as I am debating whether to wait a bit longer, or leave to go find Aaron, I hear a door bang somewhere toward the opposite end of the factory floor, and then brightness floods. the dark space as the overhead lights are turned on.
