The blood vessels were all hanging out.
That was Falcon's first thought.
Zue's blank eyes stared up at Falcon accusingly. They were even narrowed, harassing him into thinking how he had let that happen.
Aurelia was silent. For a second, Falcon was afraid she too had collapsed like Shayma.
Terror continued for her and Falcon. He knew he did not have the liberty to pass out, it was going to be them next and he had to find out a way to get them all out safe and sound.
Or not safe and sound, but alive at least.
'Aurelia,' he called, 'Hey...'
She didn't answer.
Had she collapsed? Then they were as good as dead.
