"No. I don't want to go. It's scary. It's bad. Please don't take me. Badman. Badman. I'll complain to Zeke about you. Lulu, why are you not saying anything? I don't want to go! I DON'T WANT TO GO!"
Amara wiggled under James and Zeng's grip on her arms, grabbing whatever thing that came in her way to stop them from taking her to the dock, her feet making a line on the floor. Luo following her in a wheelchair hooked to many contraptions, Evan taking care of him despite the former's disapproval.
"Lulu-- stop them. I don't want to go!"
Luo was not in a condition to say a word of console because of the oxygen mask. He gestured to Amara with a hand moment..... a faint attempt to calm her frantic self.
James and Zeng stopped seeing Suyin, their grip on Amara loosened.
