Quantum Fold II – Cornered - Chapter 12/5
Kayla searched for any sign of the Corogins. How could they vanish so quickly? She hadn’t been in the trance that long.
All she could do now was descend to where they had been standing and try to pick up their trail.
Kaszon watched her through his scanner.
Kayla’s heat signature blazed like a beacon against the stone—impossible to miss. She stood on the roof of a building barely a hundred yarons away. But she moved fast. In moments she was off the roof and slipping between structures.
It didn’t matter.
The scanner tracked her heat through the stone as if the walls weren’t there. The Mudag’s electric motors hummed softly as it glided through the labyrinth of the Core complex, angling to intercept her.
Kayla reached the spot where the Corogin group had paused. Dusty footprints marked the street in chaotic patterns. She crouched, trying to decipher them. The trail split—two directions, two possibilities.
Which way?
As she leaned closer, an energy beam tore past her head, scorching the wall beside her. Stone exploded outward.
They were behind her.
She sprinted around the corner, breath ragged, voices closing in. The thin air burned her lungs. Another shot sizzled past, close enough to feel its heat exploding the side of another structure.
Then her stomach dropped.
She had run into a blind alley. A dead end!
Walls rose sheer on all sides. No open doors. No ladders. No escape.
She spun, desperate, searching for anything—any crack, any ledge. Behind her, three Corogins advanced on foot, and the Mudag rumbled into view, rounding the corner..
Kayla froze, out of breath, helpless.
In slow, dreadful motion, the Mudag slid into position, blocking the only exit. Its weapon swiveled toward her, locking on. One of the Corogins yelled “HALT”
She had moments to live.
