Chapter 197

Katelina covered her ears as the alarm screamed.

"The code!" Kale shouted as he burst through the door and gestured to the keypad. "You have to swipe the card and type a code in!"

Oren swore loudly and Jorick shouted back, "What's the code?"

"I don't know!" Kale's wide eyes shot around the room. "Forget it! Let's get out of here!"

Jorick hesitated and then agreed. He hurried to Katelina and flung her over his shoulder. She shouted that she had feet, but he ignored her and raced through the door, Kale on his heels. Oren stayed behind. As they ran for the stairs, she could hear the sound of smashing glass.

They dashed through the empty building and burst through the front doors and into the night. Jorick ran much faster than Katelina could have gone on her own, Kale keeping pace. They'd almost reached the van when wailing sirens and flashing lights came into view.
