Echo in Time
“Taylor could even make out the shape of a row of cars waiting in front of the building. Beautiful, beckoning freedom.
Then two Enforcers came out of a hallway.
“Gas masks,” Xavier hissed. It was all the warning he gave the group before he threw two vials to the ground. A cloud of darkness immediately enveloped them and ballooned out across the lobby.
Taylor kept her hand on her gas mask, pressing it to her face. The building’s walls let out a scolding buzz that nearly drowned out the crowd’s su...dden panicked yelling. She hated hearing the fear in their voices, the confusion. It made her feel like a criminal.
Someone jostled into Taylor from behind, knocking her sideways. She put one hand out in front of her and kept heading toward the exit. The shouts began to fade, replaced by the thumps of people falling to the floor. In a moment she would have to worry about tripping over people.
Silence came. It was quickly replaced by the click of small doors opening. Gasbots whirred into the room.MoreLess
