254 The Most Unlikely

What?!

All happened too fast and Scar is not even coming around. Her body is moving before her mind catches up. Her legs could barely keep up with his pace. All she knows is, that Sebastian is holding her hands tight in his palm, his palm warm and firm. "Careful!" Sebastian kicks open the back door of the warehouse, blocking the rebound of the door as he shouts at Scar, "This way!"

They turn left right after they dash out of the door even though the door is open to a huge yard.
