Chapter Thirty 6:14 am Saturday morning: Salt Lake City Airport... A knee-jerk reaction caused Luke to knock his thermos over as he sprung to his feet. “He's moving people. Subject is moving!” The team was caught off guard, but not unaware, and scrambled about to fold up their cots and put them inside the hanger. Walter, Page, and Eugene, who moved in rhythmic lockstep were already in the plane with their doors shut, as Luke and the others dashed across the tarmac like kids that did not look both ways before crossing the street. Heath would do the driving while Kale sat in the back. Luke sat in the front seat keeping a close eye on the directional beacon that showed that Cowolsky was possibly going to pick up Danni Ford.

Luke looked out the back window and saw Walter's Piper-Cherokee ease up into the sky and begin to bank around. *** In five minutes Page found himself flying over Wal-Mart, Target, and Lowe's. He sat back in his seat and looked at his laptop. He raised his binoculars to his eyes and dialed in. A minute later he jubilantly announced, “There is Subject! Down there at the light in front of Wal-Mart.” He pulled his radio arm down over his mouth. “TASKER ONE. TASKER ONE. DO YOU COPY? OVER.” “Roger that. What do you have?” “Subject is driving on Benview Avenue. He's at the light in front of Wal-Mart right now. Looks like he's heading toward I-154. He should be making a left on it and heading north.” “Where the hell is he going?” Luke paused. “Ford lives on the other end of …show more content…
The look on his face was the same that was on the girl's. The prim school teacher that had never once dated a rebel with a stately smile liked the first-time feeling that made adrenaline course to all the right spots. It was cool giggles and AC inside the car. He zipped into a spot in front of the main entrance. After pumping the gas, Heath left the Escalade at the pump and sauntered inside to use the bathroom to get an eye on Subject. When he was walking in, Cowolsky was drying his hands. With the mannerism's of a quirky tourist, Heath walked into the closest stall and shut the door. He looked through the crack and got a good eye on Cowolsky slicking back his hair in the mirror. He pulled out a little spritzer bottle of cologne and sprayed it in his hair a few times. With the cocksure smile back on his face, he walked out. Playing incognito to the max, Luke, with his fishing hat on, and Foster Grant's on his face, stood in line behind Danni Ford, as she waited to order some fast food to go. He admired her from the time her eyes met up with his for but a few fleeting seconds. Her bouncy, shiny black hair, and the pleasant-aroma-essence of fragrance filled the space around her–so did her snow-white skin and rosy red smile. She took her bag in hand and walked out to the foyer where Cowolsky's ever-attentive eyes were watching everything she
Zach helped Indigo pack the car up. As the last box was placed into the trunk of the car, Indigo took the boy aside.
Eugene took the spy glass in hand. “Yep. They are looking up here sure enough. Some of them are rushing to their snowmobiles. They plan on coming up here ASAP.” Luke bent forward and brushed the snow off the snowmobile seat. Eugene did the same. “We have to get the hell out of here and now. When we get to the top of the ridge, call your dad on the walkie and tell him to have Walter get the plane ready to fly out. Tell him the rangers know we are here and are after us.”
He took off from the scene of the accident as Luke's father yelled for him to stop. He drove to his house and asked his own father what to do about running the child over.
Troy and Ray snickered as she scooted into the front seat. Ray eyed the front seat before climbing into the back.
“EVERYONE ON THE GROUND NOW!” Bob screamed to all the civilians, “NO ONE TALKS, NO ONE GETS HURT!”
Now, Hannah was entirely unsure of her partner-in-crime’s sexual preferences, it had never been important to killing so it had never been discussed, so she knew that simply asking would be a good way to end their professional relationship as quick as it began. Instead, Hannah would have to employ some sort of subtlety, a trait which was not one of Hannah’s skills.
The woman was one sexy bitch, and he was certain she'd be even more wild when they were alone. "Hot enough to have you dripping already?" Adam arched a brow, and briefly slipped his hand under her dress, between her legs, as if seeking the answer to his query before he withdrew his touch and pirouetted to shoot a grin and thumbs-up at his friends. When they returned the gestures, he finished his beer, placed the empty glass on the counter, stepped from his stool, and refocused on Claire. "Let's go, before I bend you over the bar, and fuck you right here. Got a car?"
Mr. Shiftlet had to move a few things around before he came across a tire iron and rusty old jack in the trunk of the car. The tools quickly became slicked with rain, and tough to manipulate with just one arm. Trucks swished past him on the highway, their headlamps newly lit and glinting in the spreading darkness. One of them honked at him, then swerved to a halt not forty yards beyond. A fat man climbed down from the cab and walked back.
Luke rested his head in his hands and fixed his gaze towards the window. Jaylee laid her arms on the table and sighed. She was worried about him. This was the second time she had seen him with a black eye, and she didn't know how to react. He had already snapped at her once, and she didn't want him to snap at her again. Luke hadn't meant to snap on her, he was just highly annoyed and pissed off at that moment.
At Walgreens, he pulled into its lot stationing himself several spots between a few of the other vehicles who were resting there waiting for their owners return. He then put the Dodge in park debating whether he should even shut it off. Things had been all aces for him for most of the morning leading up to this point and he didn’t want to push his luck with the pile of crap giving him trouble when he came back
Carefully, she strapped him into his car seat, remembering the incident that had forced them off the road, walked around to the other side of the Navigator, opened the back passenger door, and climbed into the seat next to Lucas. Jared glared at her from the rearview mirror.
“What happened, Scarlett?” Seamus was in his car, with Parker and Devon right behind him.
CJ and I laughed so hard our chests hurt. Once we finally got control of ourselves, we headed down to where Luke was. “You okay?” I questioned. He nodded to say yes and started walking up the hill to where his sled was.
“I’m sorry sir, the car radio is broken and there’s no signal out here, we’ll have to wait for the next bus to come out.” Said the driver.
“Michael?” he called to the pale, stiff body he'd pulled from the ice. When there was no response, he dragged him towards the snowmobile and placed him awkwardly on the cart, driving from the cracking ice to safety.
