Not For Long

Zeke got through the first two without difficulty it wasn’t even fun. The rest of the men were weak and he was done within minutes. “Completely not worth it.â€? he thought aloud. He did struggle a little to get the wall to open though. But it worked out in the end.

Then, he searched for Beka’s mind. He found her effortlessly but it wouldn’t be as easy to get to her. Zeke called out with his mind, Beka, I’m here. I’m coming to save you. Give me some help please.

I…can’t…its…Wes…I…can…barely…hear you. she replied.

I’m coming to that room, okay?

No, don’t. I— but her words broke off because of something, or someone, overpowering it.

Zeke ran through the academy and ended up at the window of the room from his mind. He could see the guy from the other night, Jeff. He had Beka pinned down and Wes was standing in front of her with that signature smirk on his face. That one grin everyone wore when they knew they were getting their way.

Well, not for long, Zeke thought happily while he planned to get in.
