And like I expected to happen, we lost Alex.
I looked around at all the Minority members who were moving through the crowd of people at the square and saw an expression on their faces that I also suspected I had. Fear.
I know that Jason wasn't likely to take the fact that we lost Alex as a joke, I was almost shaking in my boots at the thought of what he would do to us.
A few minutes after we lost Alex Lieutenant Dan gathered us up together and told us that it was time to head back and report to Jason.
I, in a moment of fear, volunteered to search for a few more minutes and to my surprise Lieutenant Dan allowed me to.
So I stood there as everyone else looked at me with envy on their faces while heading back to report on our failure.
I searched halfheartedly for a few more minutes before I decided to head back and face the music.
