Omega City (2015)
““DUCK!” he said. “They’re shooting! Run!”
How could we do both? We tried the best we could, awkwardly hurrying with our heads down. I could hardly breathe, thinking about that sound. We were being shot at. Clint was shooting at us. And it hadn’t even been an hour.
Then again, we did shove a flare in his face.
As we rounded the walkway around the next building, instead of getting on the metal, elevated path between buildings, Nate jumped down to the rock floor about five feet below. We followed.... Down here the ground was slightly uneven, slick with moisture and pockmarked by puddles. Here and there we saw the silhouettes of stalagmites: giant cone-shaped stone crystals that seemed to grow right out of the earth. Some were nearly as tall as me, and I even risked a few peeks toward the roof to see if there were any matching stalactites hanging from the ceiling.

“Under here,” he whispered when we reached the next building.MoreLess
