Four or Dead

Chapter 32

Jayden...Present...

Emma's father had shot me but he had no idea that it would take more than that to kill me especially when Emma needed me. Thankfully her father, in his hurry to get Emma, had been a lousy shot. The bullet grazed me putting on quite the show of blood which was a mess, but hardly anything I couldn't handle. Logan ran back inside as Asher checked out my wound. (*)

"Where is she?" I growled out when he walked toward us.

"He pushed her into a car and they took off in the direction of the highway," Logan replied his voice breathy I guessed from chasing after them.

"We can track them but I can't guarantee that they haven't already reached wherever it is he was taking her. We could be too late for what he has planned." Leo admitted with a hard swallow of obvious fear.

"Let's hope that isn't the case, Now let's go get our girl." I said standing and grabbing a bandage for my arm.

"This can't be right." He said suddenly. "What?" Asher asked impatiently through a clenched jaw.

"It says his car isn't on the main highway. It looks like..." Leo raised his head to meet our eyes. "The signal is coming from the state park along the highway a mile away from exit 73."

"What? What does that mean?" Asher was losing his cool and that was never a good thing. "Leo what does that mean!"

"I don't know! It's a dot on a map I don't know what that could mean! 'They could have pulled over or...or they could have..." Leo was choking on his words as the possibilities ran through his mind.
