"Al!" She called along with the other two. She bit her lip, feeling worried for her brother. Where was he? Was he hurt? That thought made her even more worried and the urge to find him increased. "Al!" She called again.
Alastair took the letter in his hands, bright blue eyes scanning over the page. He paled, the letter fluttering from limp fingers. Fear surged through him and he darted down the hall, frantically calling Autumn's name. He paused suddenly, hearing a high, sweet voice. Recognizing it as his sister's voice, Alastair sprinted down the hall.
"Autumn!" The little girl turned, gasping when she saw her brother racing towards her. He scooped her up into his arms, hugging her to his chest as she started crying, wrapping her arms around his neck. Alastair looked at the girl Autumn had been with. "Thank you for looking out for my sister." He ran a hand down Autumn's loose curls, trying to sooth her. He looked at Blaire again. "We need to leave. I found a paper earlier that said that all the kids here were to be exterminated. We need to get out as quick as we can." He said gravely.
