In Passing

"I'll take him back to Ezra and Ashlyn, then I'd like to go find my sister and mother."

"We're going to Ross's."

"Alright. I'll see you all soon. Be safe, please."

"We will. You too." 

We said our goodbyes and we all headed in different directions.

Ryker had broken off from the group with me so we could look for Molly and Dani. Neither one of us were going to be able to rest until they were found and back with us, safe and sound. Damien

"I don't want to be widowed again." I finally said. My worry was really starting to sink in. Dani and I weren't married but if something had happened to her he was done for. He'd never commit suicide but he wouldn't be able to love anyone again. Twice in a lifetime was enough. "I can't lose her, Damien. In no way, shape or form." -Ryker

Feb 13, 2017 8:11:43am

"I know," I told him. "We're gonna find her. Both of them," I said, knowing I was trying to convince us both and just praying I was right. - Damien

Feb 13, 2017 8:25:21am

"Should we go to our houses first?" -Ryker

Feb 13, 2017 9:18:38am

I shook my head. "We can if you want but word of mouth says there's nothing left there. The houses were destroyed. Molly was worried sick about the other maids, she would've gone looking for them. Where do you think Dani would've gone?" - Damien

Feb 13, 2017 11:13:35am

"God, I don't know. Maybe the Stiletto to see if she could find anyone there?" -Ryker

Feb 15, 2017 10:03:41pm

"It's worth a shot. Let's try there first." - Damien

Feb 15, 2017 10:16:07pm

"No, it couldn't. Come on, let's go." Ryker

Feb 15, 2017 10:20:48pm

We got back in the van and made our way steadily towards District 1. When we got to the streets where the shops and businesses were supposed to be, I cursed. Everything was either vandalised or completely gone from explosions. - Damien

Feb 16, 2017 12:26:22am

"This can't be happening." I whispered, a wave of dread washing over me. Ryker

Feb 16, 2017 8:16:33am

"It doesn't mean anything Ryker. She would have got away, I'm sure of it. Where else would she go? Didn't she have family in the lower districts?" - Damien

Feb 16, 2017 2:33:02pm

"Yes, but how far could she have made it without getting caught or something? Some of the girls she knew were working at the Capitol building. She may have went there." Ryker

Feb 16, 2017 2:39:56pm

"Let's check there then. That might be where Molly is too." - Damien

Feb 16, 2017 5:22:06pm

"Alright." Ryker

Feb 16, 2017 8:49:10pm

We got back in the van and I headed that way, praying we found them soon and they were okay. - Damien

Feb 16, 2017 9:49:53pm

We got closer and I could see the building was burning, and looked as if it could fall at any moment. We parked and got out. "Dani!" I called out. Ryker

Feb 16, 2017 10:50:52pm

"We need to be prepared if you want to go in there. We might not come back out." I started to walk around the place, stepping over pieces of wood, steel, bricks, and other debris. "Molly!" - Damien

Feb 17, 2017 12:35:10am

He dropped to his knees beside of her and went to the other side and checked her pulse. She was covered in lacerations and had a nasty head wound. "She has a heartbeat." Ryker

Feb 17, 2017 12:35:10am

"Thank god," I said as I picked her up. I have to get her medical attention." - Damien

Feb 17, 2017 8:43:19am

"I'll take you and then keep looking for Dani, come on." I said and headed back for the van. -Ryker
