It was like Megan was having an out-of-body experience when things began to happen around her. One minute, she was watching Sammy talk, and the next, she couldn't even explain how she was supposed to feel about anything.The last moment before Megan became a passenger in her own body was when she heard the bike crash into one of Sammy's bodyguards just behind her and she turned to see the biker, still with his helmet on, take out the remaining three guards in quick succession.By the time the biker pointed the gun towards where she was sitting and shot, she was completely logged out of her functions. She heard a scream as she looked to see Sammy fall backwards in his chair- it was actually her voice but she had no recollection of emitting the sound.Like a machine on autopilot, Megan f

Ricardo drove the Jeep up a hill that overlooked the city before he pulled it to a stop. The moment he did, Sammy got out of the car and stomped round it angrily to face him."What the hell just happened back there, Rick?!" he shouted. "No one said anything about getting shot in the chest." He zipped down his jacket for Ricardo to see the dent the bullet had left in his bulletproof vest.Ricardo sighed exasperatedly. He looked over at Megan who was just getting out of the Jeep alongside Kei. She was fine, he saw to his relief. For a moment before, he had actually been worried that she had been hit in the haze of the bullets raining down on them in the restaurant earlier and was just too excited to notice. From what he could see though, she was fine- a little distracted perhaps by the ordeal they just went through, but fine

Chersky, Russia"Mum, watch out!"Megan's eyes jerked open as she felt a touch on her shoulder and her sensation returned to the sound of tires screeching against the tarmac. The Chariot had landed, she realized.She looked up to see Ricardo standing in front of the pulled back leather armchair she had dozed off in with a worried look on his face. "Are you okay?" he asked. "You were moaning in your sleep.""I'm fine," she replied, shaking away his hand from her shoulder- he was the one that had jerked her awake- alongside the last cobwebs of sleep in her eyes. "I'm just tired, that's all."Ricardo didn't seem to be buying any part of that expla

Megan approached the front of the warehouse with Ricardo and Adolf in tow. Nothing appeared to be out of the ordinary as they went- in fact, nothing appeared to be in the environment at all besides the building- but just to be safe, she signaled that they all keep their eyes peeled and be ready for anything at any moment- bad guys tended to have a knack for springing out of nowhere, she thought with a look around, it was highly unlikely they were going to suddenly stop exercising that bad habit.The trio finally got to the building's frontage after about a minute of cautious walking and Megan waved two fingers back at the SUVs; her signal to Kei and Jay to maintain the two minutes count before they came out after them."Alright," she gestured to Ricardo when she looked to see a computerized keypad on the wall, "looks l

Megan wasn't sure for how long she was passed out but she figured it had to be a long time cos when she regained consciousness, she saw that the sky had become a lot darker than when she and the group had arrived in Chersky.Well, it was good thing she was still alive, she thought to herself, although considering the numerous aches torturing every pore of her body, she sort of wished she wasn't.Megan looked down, surprised to see that she had been put strapped to a metal chair by the hands and legs with steel chains so heavy that she doubted even Adolf would be able to get her out of them if he tried.And speaking of Adolf, she turned to see him hanging from the ceiling of the warehouse- what remained of it after the pulse explosion, that is- by his wings. S
