"Hi, I'm Kylee. This book, it's about God and me and the crazy people that take me in on this mountain I'm currently looking for with some desperation." Behind me the sloshing steps of my group are falling hard on my ears and heart. "They're expecting me to get us to this safe place that my parents were trying to take us. Now, it's on me." I shield my eyes from the rain long enough to look through the dark storm above us. It doesn't help. I'm getting desperate. Hunted by killers, lost in the wild, and . . . "RUN," I shout, and charge forward through the muck.Guns begin to fire, spotlights are on us from somewhere below. My group hurries behind, strong arms slam me to the ground. My heart beats rapidly, but they don't attack. These soldiers, their different. I'm swung behind them, and they open fire on those chasing us."Captain, we got to move, this is a whole party here!""Rabbit, Mutt, hold the rear," the older man, right beside me, shouts to his people. "Everyone else, let's get these people out of here."The older man, I'm guessing the captain, yanks me up on my feet and pushes me, my entire group, deeper into the wild, away from our enemies.
