At the main entrance of the military base, Ava was huffing for each breath. There was a kind of relief from the thought of being in a safe place.
The brown walls and forest green wall-like gates were tall and sturdy. They kind of evoked a sense of protectiveness. Her eyes shifted to the small door that opened at the gate and saw two men exit in the uniform.
Ava wanted to lean on something and calm herself but there was nothing to hold. Standing in front of tall burly men, she had to lift her head to look at their faces.
She realized their eyes were looking at her skeptically. She noticed a group of two on either side of the gates were looking down at her standing on the tower.
